[@purplatypus7405]

Ive said it before but its been awhile. You make the best MTGA content. Thanks for the videos. makes powerful but off meta and fun decks Doesn't get salty lets opponent do their fun thing instead of just conceding plays insanely well finds plays I never would have considered verbalizes thought process clearly

[@chasejohnson3626]

I second this. LVD is the goat.

[@SM-hr3zo]

Yeah, i especually appreciate the non-saltiness. Plus the great editing, saving us viewers from watching long timers!

[@LeFerret335]

1st Match: Opponent went from 46 to -110 so total 156 damage. They had 103 toughness on the board, so even if they threw everyone under the bus they'd be at -7

[@wanderingwobb6300]

Knew someone would bother doing the math. Thank you.

[@DramaRules123]

Wild that he needed every creature he played, he just barely got there by playing it perfectly

[@Vitox96]

I think the biggest problem was he would had to declare 103 blockers 1 by 1. I dont think he did the math, just let them pass. Imagine having to assign 28 blockers per creature.

[@germanbrandeburgo5925]

If they could, yes. But LVD had a 28/28 flying Gnawbone and opponent only had 4 toughness with reach. Lvd could have won by attacking with Gnawbone alone

[@ImNotFine]

I could have a lot more scutes, but I still had the "auto order triggered abilities" option on since I was playing birgi earlier that day. Either way, Gnawbones was trouble anyways.

[@Grand-Massive]

As a mono green only player I just have to say... YESSSSS More mono green brawl would be appreciated.

[@vajrayana9405]

If you like mono green brawl I’d suggest you try vivien on the hunt on standard brawl

[@m4p0]

LVD to Nadu players: "Look at me. I'm the greedlord now."

[@CyberBuster93]

Stompy beats Nadu. What a beautiful sentence ❤️🔥🤘

[@nateb.9947]

In paper I have a golgari elves deck but after Eladamri"s release wanted me to make it mono colour. This list gives me a good start of doing so, thanks!

[@cmloegcmluin]

game 1: in tears. that's the greenest game I've ever seen.

[@abigchair]

Game one was pretty epic

[@Say_Tin]

Luca and Chris are the only two MTGA creators that I enjoy watching for opposite reasons: Luca, on one hand, calm and calculating, a highly skilled magic player. Chris, on the other hand, absolutely unhinged, terrible at magic, but still has fun.

[@why2k87]

Who's Chris?

[@Say_Tin]

@@why2k87 his channel is called mono black magic

[@luismanuellmf]

​​@@why2k87 I think he refers to Monoblackmagic. And yeah, funny guy, always doing shenanigans with crazy decks.

[@dogeparut]

yeah monoblackmagic's content is staged since everyone he plays against has 100+ card deck and they take to long and he decks are kinda weird and shiddy

[@thrillhouse4151]

40:40, oh no Ulamog the Defiler exiling Worldspine Wurm just like I imagined when I first saw that card! Annihilator 11! I think a few cards can go higher but the wurm is the one that came to mind first.

[@theaeskey2502]

I’m surprised you didn’t take this more of the elf ball route but I’m quite impressed with the deck none the less.

[@LegenVD]

Still have the best parts of the elf deck, while also getting to do some broken big creatures things!

[@theaeskey2502]

@@LegenVDyeah that’s what impressed me for sure.

[@honestabe411]

Elves and green in general (rhonas fanatic) are getting really pushed

[@luizinholollipop]

I was waiting for this Commander, great as always LVD ❤

[@caolegend3125]

Patrons should have a list of all the commanders that havent been featured it would be interesting to rescue one or do one that was forgotten now and then

[@monsoon1234567890]

This has been my favorite deck since the Frodo deck

[@rogermandevillejr132]

Been waiting for this one. What makes it scary is that when the gameplan is so simple, you can make it super efficient.

[@davidragg2160]

Alternate title: Legend capitalizing on hate for Nadu.

[@tamaraberger1020]

Nothing better to wake up to

[@MageSkeleton]

i've been waiting SO LONG for a mono green legendary creature like this and of course if WotC doesn't "print it more" it's price is going to just go up and up. They put this type of function of odds and ends cards like Garruk's Horde and the new Elven Chorus and they even did Ranger Class where you have to level it up to do the thing. This should be Green's "card advantage" mechanic going forward but also means either this legendary needs to be "printed more" or more other variations on this type of mechanic on other legendary creatures.

[@johnferrer5145]

The primal urge to resist a click bait title versus the indomitable want to crush Nadu

[@mantidream8179]

That bird needs to fly away...

[@peteryang2067]

Waiting for that: “Alright, unto thee next one.” merch

[@saveachip2620]

Never did i think id see so many nadu players in a row, playing nadu wrong

[@joelj2897]

lo mismo pienso se arman el mazo sin al menos tener una idea de a que juega el mazo...

[@dacenmclean7901]

Oh yeah. Love your brews!

[@togethergutlesss]

First game against imnotfine another fellow magic content youtuber nice hes pretty good

[@thcdreams654]

Nice set of games. Cool deck for sure. Great commentary as well.

[@smokeybandit3787]

Can you play "full steam ahead" from thunder junction? +2/+2 and each creature can only be blocked by 1 other creature.

[@Say_Tin]

I slapped together an Eladamri list literally just yesterday (I call it "ella domri corvette doll") What's your opinion on Jeweled Lotus for Eladamri? I'm debating whether the potential brick is worth the potential turn 1 ella domri.

[@LegenVD]

It's not on Arena, but if you have it in paper I'm not going to stop you 😂

[@dkznikolaj7013]

Nadu is... Interesting. At least it makes it easy to show off combos cause nadu barely interacts. It just wins, but when it doesn't...

[@SacredMagic13679]

Notification gang, who's here?

[@BigStrixt]

GREEN DAY IS A GOOD DAY

[@chuckdorsey6905]

railway brawler seems like a really fun card for this deck

[@rafaelpardinifariabastos4545]

lovely list

[@CyberBuster93]

YES BRAAAAAWL WOOOOO!!!! GREEN STOMPY GO BRRRRRRR 🔥🤘

[@user-xk7bw9ii8i]

oh my oh my if only i wouldn't consider mono colored decks boring and mana cheating just stupid.. i would be really into this xD

[@N3XUSbrz]

Yes. Acting like this commander isnt as busted as Nadu.

[@why2k87]

Bro made the ultimate timmy deck... i love it (I'm a timmy)

[@babygirlvenere]

so called free thinkers when Nadu

[@shmebolock]

I'm pretty sure at 36:05 if you used Llanowar Loamspeaker to make a land onto a 4/4 your Fanatic of Rhonas would make more mana to let you spree Smuggler's Surprise again, but that obviously didn't matter that game.

[@LegenVD]

Good point!

[@ianwilliams9559]

Game 1 opponent was looking at around 156 trampling damage with roughly 98 toughness worth of blockers, there was no way they could block it all. They did you both a favor by not trying with all those bugs lol

[@dreibrandao]

amazing

[@mbulelobam7529]

TIL that I have been mispronouncing Eladamri ever since Tempest.

[@Andorianin]

Why didn't you add a card that spawns Plants Saprolings every turn, can't remember what it's called.

[@Andorianin]

Tendershoot Dryad

[@LegenVD]

It's a great card, but there are stronger payoffs and as an enabler it's still quite pricey.

[@kharnthebetrayer1575]

Just a Glorious Deck … 😭

[@dnkroy]

Content content content🎉

[@diegovasquezcaballero]

God, I thought they had banned Nadu like the next day. Why are we still seeing it?

[@ssorvete89]

Nadu is so pushed, I can beat it but man it's annoying how busted it is compared to most stuff, you need to be running many vintage tier cards to beat it xD

[@aozorahollow9410]

Yeeas

[@cerilious]

I don't know whether that Azusa meant by "good game" but the way they spammed it makes me think they were going to win.

[@soybomb777]

Power move: use Eladamri's ability to reveal a non creature card

[@amarauk9687]

"decent turn"

[@masterkurosaki100]

First match: Scute Swarm vs Craterhoof = MTG Epicness

[@mcd9468]

Mono green my beloved.

[@armyofmeh]

Nadu keeps just losing.

[@JohnSmith-rr3jt]

I think you are confusing concession and concede

[@LegenVD]

dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/concession - the act of admitting defeat

[@radaniol]

I remembering seeing you make a similar comment around a week ago, so to make sure you know - concession is the noun form of concede, in the same way e.g. admission is for admit. While it's mainly used in the more idiomatic phrase 'to make a concession' nowadays, that doesn't change the grammatical basis. A similar situation occurs with the verb commit, where the noun form is commission (which is indeed still used in legal contexts as 'commission of a crime' despite its everyday usages being completely different) The point is, LVD is using the word correctly, and I encourage you to dig deeper into it if you still feel like it's wrong.

[@calvinmobley9628]

Patriars humiliation is the dumbest fake card ever.

[@qbass2249]

25:10 that card is fucking bullshit

[@astuteanansi4935]

Christ on a stick. Nadu is so insanely obnoxious. Even when you win it still feels like a grindfest. This nonsense should be banned from every format. 28:23 - imagine being a Nadu player and acting like you're entitled to "Nice!" anybody when you get rightfully stomped into the ground

[@frostvipre5972]

Math is for blockers

[@OdinMagnus]

Scute swarm is one of the dumbest design cards ever printed. This should be an alchemy only card. In paper is just super stupid trying to keep track of. Game 2: You love making me yell at my screen. Always play cost reduction first. First, it's harder to interact with and second it let's you double spell easier. If you had a bunch of elves and the choice was medallion or priest, priest might be better, but 90% go for reduction first.

[@LegenVD]

In my build of Nadu I probably have more disenchant effects than creature removal. Since we're not using the discount the turn we play it I prefer playing the creature first, since the Medallion discount doesn't have summoning sickness on the following turn.

[@OdinMagnus]

@LegenVD oh? Why though? Don't you want to focus on your stuff? For instance, my Gates deck is like playing solitaire. I don't care what they do and I just either win or don't. I feel that Nadu is the same.

[@LegenVD]

@@OdinMagnus For sure, just saying there's usually not much creature removal in the deck. So no need to yell at your screen!

[@joelj2897]

esos decks nadu que ´pusiste pareciera q lo estan jugando nenes de 2 años muy mal jugados y armados, contra un nadu optimo no tendrias oportunidad

[@tiagoperretto]

Nadu is so shit. Cannot even win against mono green.

[@FlynnApollo]

Nadu is so boring and homogenized.

[@qwerty62201]

Wowww, mono G ramp! Couldn't pick a more boring deck

[@nellyi4558]

Cry about it
