TONIGHT WE DINE IN HELL! Legacy Jeskai Kassandra Blade w/The Spear of Leonidas. MTG Assassin's Creed

[@shepardthemailman]

I regret to inform you that Stoneforge Mystic is about to turn 15 years old. My back hurts

[@CRich614]

👴

[@skirk248]

Why do you hurt me?

[@BurbachHC]

She can almost drive!

[@Alwheezy.]

Ok first of all how dare you.

[@BeExcellent80s]

15:23 I did indeed see 4 consecutive no landers (I think one or two had a wasteland in them). GGs as always.

[@BoshNRoll]

Tough beats

[@emctwoo]

Oof

[@elismith7374]

Eris the Dumb Elemental was my donation deck a few months ago lol

[@Crimmando]

See, Eldrazi is why we can't have fun things. Kozilek's Command is busted unfun misery. Rant over. Thanks for playing, Brian; always a pleasure.

[@DoppelgangerIsI]

But.... have you thought about Uwezama's Jitte?

[@jonwilson5711]

I think the unfortunate reason why magic online doesn’t sort the graveyard is to have each card where it’s supposed to be for effects like shallow grave, though I do wish there was a button to sort the pile for easier use

[@ashx8772]

I’ve watched beexcellent and he 100% knows your island ponder keep tendencies

[@music00soba]

ponder pack keep em if you got em

[@williammcminn3088]

At 17:56 is there any consideration for fetching prior to brainstorm for an extra look at force/interaction since we know about the wrath on top? Giving up the scultp equity but its probably force or dead. (New to cantrip heuristics)

[@Dotslashgatsby]

41:50 - did I hear an OSRS combat sound? 😮🤩

[@RBob-ht6sj]

This league was like playing a deck with 2 wood elementals in it

[@daltonmekis]

At 1:01:00 I feel like I might have just blocked with Stoneforge and then put in the Kaldra before damage. The kaldra still dies to Mite, but it would save 6 life. The end result is you have no stoneforge but you are at 7 instead of 1. Maybe the 1/2 is worth keeping in play, but having 6 more life could be more valuable

[@crawdaddy1234]

It makes me so sad that Jitte is no longer good enough. lol

[@andrewpalella9923]

Maybe could hold it's own in modern but we'll have to see if it ever gets unbanned

[@Crimmando]

If the format became about little creatures again it could be… I just think Eldrazi are the menace making that impossible.

[@crawdaddy1234]

@@andrewpalella9923 Hopefully/maybe - I remember when Worldwake was the new set and I picked up my playset of Stoneforge Mystics (this was prior to the printing of Sword of Feast and Famine or Batterskull), because I played Sword of Fire and Ice, Jitte and Sword of Light and Shadow in my Legacy midrange Abzan Knight of the Reliquary-Loam deck. ----- I play Duel Commander (a 1v1 variant of Commander), and I recently took Jitte out of my Yoshimaru deck and my Alela, Artful Provocateur deck.... that hurt. lol

[@Palda88726]

@@crawdaddy1234 i played jitte in livio kraum and it was alright but it was around the time that it slowly got powercrept out of the format. Not good enough now but still I remember fondly playing it.

[@zanewarner8372]

Vs the mystic forge combo deck have you tried allowing them 1 fleshraker as opposed to forcing it? I understand it's a very threatening card but it seems to me like maybe, if you can answer 1 rings, k commands, and forges then a single one won't do enough to kill you. Maybe a way to try and survive a bad situation like that one? Curious if this has any merit or if not why it goes wrong

[@ford0076]

I love the SFM deck. Please play more mid-range and control. I want to see the Bant stuff you have been working on.

[@Jidehem1993]

@58:38 I think you meant Kaldra stabilizes compleately!

[@Harbinger682]

Let’s go, first and new stone blade pack

[@sebastianraducu7850]

Jitte pack equip em if you got em

[@LordWerwath]

Ive been looking at these ACR legendary permanents for Boros E in modern, I think the value from the spear is actually pretty insane. Not sure if SFM is needed, but Kassandra fills the red permanent slot and is aggressively cost.

[@MasterSchatz]

Eris, Roar of the Storm is the elemental that makes dragons

[@graefx]

That Round 4 deck is wild

[@Esper_Compleat]

Hell yeah that's a clean g1

[@tylergoerlich9494]

STONE BLADE LET’S GO

[@matthewbeard7841]

I get why they did that change for clarity to the text display for Nadu triggers still 'active' for each individual creature on MTGO, but boy does it make for some comical looking textboxes!

[@jacebeleren9290]

Idk if people have mentioned this or not but I watched Aspiringspike solve a good bit of MTGO lag he was experiencing by turning off this auto zoom feature; apparently it can be disabled in the settings somewhere if it's been giving you grief

[@BoshNRoll]

I know about that setting, it’s not giving me grief, and my mtgo has been running fine since the last downtime.

[@skirk248]

Round 2: doesn't oops just get bodied by blood moon?

[@BoshNRoll]

A 3 mana spell vs the Lotus Petal/Chrome Mox deck that wins on turn 1?

[@skirk248]

​@BoshNRoll I think if you're bringing in the hate as heavily as you are, a blood moon can do a good amount of damage. They seem vulnerable mana wise in my experience but I might just be playing against pilots that made mistakes somewhere along the line

[@nicholascmcneill]

BeExcellent!

[@rodrigoramos2583]

Huh didn't think much about running spear and stoneforge.

[@DiscardatRandom]

Where jace and jitte youtube man

[@skirk248]

Jitte being bad now isn't okay

[@nicholascmcneill]

It’s okay, wizards will release Jitte 2.0 in their next foray into kamigawa and it will bonk

[@bradleytinney6969]

Brian, what are your thoughts on extirpate against oops all spells? Obviously, I'm not talking about for this deck but the split second not being able to be interacted with has some value.

[@rekenner]

It being dead on the draw has a lot of downside

[@thepolishprince851]

Are they ever going to fix the lag on mtgo?

[@BoshNRoll]

They've said they're working on it. Idk, I don't work for MTGO.

[@DiscardatRandom]

It will be laggy forever

[@federicopanzonato4528]

Nice, 300 referencing title

[@RiKSh4w]

Kassandra was trying to tell you you needed to go aggro that game instead of digging for Wrath! But you didn't listen!

[@googleplusisterrible4837]

Magic sets have gone so far the barrier to playability is too high. Instead of making playable cards within color abilities and mana values, we have Ragavan, Oko, Underworld Breach, Frog, and that’s just a few. Beseech the Mirror isn’t ban worthy! Card in a vacuum is NUTS

[@Femo-ok]

What about the Jitte?

[@BoshNRoll]

2:07

[@killpioo2]

I had no idea go forth was legal in legacy, I never see it in any decks

[@ashx8772]

Hey Bosh have you considered Umezawas Jitte ? It’s a legendary artifact that can trigger Kassandra ? (Jk jk)

[@DiscardatRandom]

Can’t believe he never thought of that

[@mpepp9]

Booo only a 1-of 😢

[@CharlotteMimic]

Kassandra tried *so* hard. Poor girl.

[@TheRightboot]

In R1 G3, why not just Consign To Memory the Undercity Informer ability?

[@BoshNRoll]

Because that is not a legal play.

[@TheRightboot]

@BoshNRoll Yeah, I just realized that it only says "triggered" ability. I always assumed it said "activated or triggered ability".

[@rekenner]

​​@@TheRightboot it's not just Stifle that's got two major upgrades, no. If it was that, it'd probably be a 4 of in every deck that could cast it

[@TheRightboot]

@@rekenner Yeah, that thought process is what made me realize my mistake. If it did all of that, it would be an insane card.

[@ecpracticesquad4674]

The auto-zoom on cards is annoying
