I’m not a fan of seeing narset all over the brawl queue, but dude your breakdowns of the strategy are so good. No other KZbinr takes the amount of time and care to explain their thoughts behind the cards they include and I really appreciate it!

I've been watching him ever since Ive gotten into MTGA for that reason.

It's a relatively new commander in this iteration of the game, so I don't see the issue. I'd rather run into her than yet another Etali, Imoti or sliverless First Sliver for sure.

Glad you like them!

[@stormingcrow2541]

I played narset- extra combats in commander back in the day, when I realized she was coming to brawl I knew I needed to build her. I love seeing your builds, your card selection is so immaculate, cycling for early and late game relevance, your interaction is cheap yet has late game relevance, and your ramp selection is very clean. Your deck building is a wonder to behold❤

[@christiancornier9357]

Love the thorough deck breakdowns, really insightful to deck building. Small request though: would you put a card count on each of the sections when you do the breakdown in the beginning? No sweat if you don't think it's relevant or if you don't like how it looks. Excellent content, cheers buddy

[@LegenVD]

It's tricky since some cards can fit into multiple categories so the count wouldn't be very accurate. It's also not an exact science, so if someone were to replicate the deck they don't need the same numbers.

[@King-fm8fe]

Absolutely love the content, i look forward to your videos every day. You’re a great player, in the game and in personality.

It might be a bit dumb, but while watching your videos on PC I sometimes skip 5 seconds while you are making a decision, or during the opponent's turn. Its kinda funny, sometimes it makes sense. "We can - removal - Narset - keep up - counterspell - counter - alright".

[@Xorthis]

I was playing Narset when she was released and oh my it was about as devastating as shown here. Now most people just quit and she got put into the brawl hell queue (5C Jodah, Golos, Esikia, Scarab God etc.). Still extremely fun to play!

[@ScottyZee33]

[@shadowinversion]

The worst thing about playing top tier decks is that the oppo often concedes before the cool things happen

[@AkodoNoEyes]

Problem I have is that people seem to forget that she needs to hit the field asap and with haste if possible. Everyone wants to just include expensive stuff and not enough early ramp. Irencraig is solid in the deck. You want to make it an equipment so she can be a 6/5 which will allow her to attack through most stuff. So far Your version is the best I’ve seen.

[@Asian_Caleb]

Wouldn’t that give narset +3/+3 but lose all abilities?

[@AkodoNoEyes]

@@Asian_Caleb I tjgiuht it meant Irencraig lost its abilities….. have I misread thst card for months?

[@austinp3688]

​@@AkodoNoEyes Pretty sure the Irencrag loses all abilities, not the equipped creature. So basically, Irencrag loses the ability to tap for mana and that's it.

[@AkodoNoEyes]

@@austinp3688 oh okay. Lord why didn’t they just make it a flip card. Would be easier hahaha

[@LordKoKuyou]

@@Asian_Caleb It's the Iron Craig that lose the mana ability. I have used Iron Craig as an equipment many times already so i know it works that way. Still, i do find the wording in the card a little confusing. At first, i also thought the creature would lose its ability.

[@nicolasmorazotti8684]

It's my favourite paper commander (my build is more of a voltron though), and I built one on Arena two days before KTK became available. Been playing it since day one, never gets old. But I do keep fighting Etalis and Ruskos.

[@Xorthis]

Yeah I did the same, and once the power level was shown she got put into THAT queue, which is a shame, but totally warranted :D

[@Darkeep12]

[@Yesnomu]

You might want Discover the Formula and Molten Impact as well, but I agree, not a whole lot.

[@AkodoNoEyes]

@@Yesnomu discover the formula seems like a good choice. Aren’t there 2 low mana cost cards thst let you seek stuff to help the early game? I do like Molten Impact. I kinda wonder if Counterspell is worth siding out for something else.

[@Apollopaladin]

Took a look at this since I'd already built a Brawl deck using her and was curious how mine stacked up. There are some really neat interactions in your build here that I'd overlooked, but I was surprised not to see Hit the Mother Lode your deck. It worked wonders in mine, making the turns even more unbalanced with all that extra Treasure to use (after all the free spells are cast). Either way a really fun one to play, and to watch! I can see a nerf of this coming to Arena for sure.

[@LegenVD]

Definitely a fun inclusion!

[@sxztube]

Wooo more brawl more brawl more brawl!!

[@Whale_17TV]

Did you consider Palantir of Orthanc for the deck due to the high cmc spells in the deck??

[@LegenVD]

I did! It’s an option although it doesn’t really fit perfectly in any of the categories that we need for the deck to function.

[@DAsrada]

Ahh Narset, at least there aren't extra combat effects in there too.

[@JackieDaytona420]

Yeahhhh Narset is usually an instant concede for me lol

[@celestialTangle]

The first treasure-maker to come to mind for this deck is Fable of the Mirror-Breaker, why exclude it?

[@LegenVD]

It's not guaranteed to make a Treasure and we really need Narset in play asap.

[@gaminggeckos4388]

When I saw Narset, I was like "Wow, this card totally sucks. A SIX MANA 3/2 that wants to ATTACK?? It should cost like four mana!" ...I missed the words "without paying their mana cost."

[@Merit_Liege]

Thanks for the skeleton. Gonna add the enchantment resurrection and fun a little more counter spell when I give it another stab. I remember this commander was the absolute most busted thing like 10 years ago Now, it's mid jank🤣♥️

[@lark7311]

Wdym mid jank its even better now? than it was 10 years ago. In most decks if this gets an attack trigger off you win on the spot

[@Xorthis]

It's in no way jank unless you try to build in multi-card dependant combos that just end up getting exiled at the wrong time. Watch out with too many counterspells, you'll end up exiling them when they're useless. I'm running more protect than counters, because survivability of Narset is more important. Put in spells like Chimil and the giant mana blowouts and it wins.

I play narset in commander IRL. universally hated, I only bring it out for kids to play with against adults.

[@jigglefloyd]

I hate how every new commander released is automatically put into the generic brawl queue. Most of these decks didn't stand a chance against yours. Every new broken legendary gets to completely destroy the general queue for three months before they finally adjust it into hell queue. There have been a few exceptions to this like Ragavan and Griselbrand, but so many have gone completely unchecked [e.g. Narset, Atraxa, Rusko]. It just destroys the meta and no matter how shitty your deck you will likely be paired with totally broken commanders simply due to WOTC's laziness.

[@LegenVD]

I've heard reports that Narset already got bumped up in the hell queue. I agree it's been a problem in the past. They probably want to wait on the data before making decisions, but more frequent updates in-between releases would alleviate this problem.
