Plus people find synergies that no one could predict. I remember with Zendikar he predicted that Lurrus would be a jank card and never see comp play. It blew up like crazy pre-companion nerf, and now its back in Rouges again. Then again this is overrated cards list not necessary bad cards in the right situation. People are trying to stuff these in every deck instead of building around it or complementing an existing synergy in the deck. I remember I tried to stuff Vito in every deck that had a hint of life gain.

@@nickritchie2154 I think that's a big stretch. Bonecrusher Giant is the only way Quakebringer gets triggered from the graveyard in mono red, and why would you ever cast a 5 mana 5/4 that can be countered, and doesn't have haste, when you could just cast Torbran, or Embercleave instead? It's just nowhere near good enough. Quakebringer in rakdos self-mill MIGHT be playable, but it's also a 5 drop, that just sits in your hand if you don't hit your 5th land, and it's not something you ever want to cast to begin with.

fun deck with mystic reflection: there's a gimmick deck called MANY RELICS focused around relic robber and mystic reflection. all you need to do is get one construct from the relic robber onto their board and then mystic reflection any creatures or planeswalkers into more constructs and they ping themselves to death. it's got a pretty decent win rate for a gimmick deck, too, and honestly it's just hilarious when they try to, say, cast ugin and you turn him into a 0/1 goblin construct that pings them for 1 each turn. the decklist is around, the deck is literally titled "MANY RELICS". It's basically an izzet rogue deck, which is great.

27:56 World Tree I hope you're right about this card, but the fact that it's not legendary means that this can easily be abused, not for the WUBRG meme, but for the "Chromatic Lantern" passive and the absurd amount of power that can bring. This probably has a lot more viability for non-aggro historic as A) there's a lot more mana ramp options, and B) they're a lot more gods to choose from in case you're interested in the meme. But essentially this card allows both monocolor and multicolor decks to splash cards they would normally never attempt. As a Bo1 player I think this will be VERY fun with sideboard tutor effects, take a 1-2 color deck and give it access to Ultimatums and other difficult color requirement cards.

Fun with mystic reflection: Opponent casts creature. You turn your crawling barrens into creature in response. You cast mystic reflection, target your crawling barrens. The opponents creature enters play as a 0/0 crawling barrens and dies. Thats a creature counter for only 4 mana! Naturally your crawling barrens dies to the opponents revenge spell afterwards.

I get where cgb is coming from, but I think mystic reflections is underrated for a number of reasons. The foretell cost adds on confusion, chaos, and concern about "what might be that card you just foretold?" This will sometimes make opponents play dumb around something they have no way of knowing. Every different card with foretell on it in a deck makes every other foretell card stronger due to not being able to guess an opponent's battle plans. Second, being able to choose ANY creature anywhere on the board shouldn't be underestimated. If either deck runs tokens (and let's be honest, there are few decks who don't), you have a potential rewrite over any game changing creatures and planeswalkers. Making an opponent fear your one mana open with a shark token and a single foretell card is an amazing feeling. I may end up stalling their combo plans until they're sure it's "safe." If not, I for one look forward to replacing torbran with a 0/4 wall token. Decks with flash creatures, tokens (especially at instant speed), or small, situational creatures will find massive benefits with this card. Third, it's a combo/game win interrupt. Turning a Heliod or a Lovestruck Beast into a windrobber or ruin crab can devastate a game plan at crucial points in the game. Lastly, situationally, it generates mana advantage. Probably the least important aspect, but worth mentioning.

33:45 I agree that The World Tree activation is unlikely going be the intended wincon in a tournament competative deck. I still think its worth noting that when you attack with Jorn, God of Winter, you can activate The World Tree if you have 5 snowlands in play, for a total of just 6 lands. And since The World Tree fixes all the mana for itself, you can even do that in a monocoloured deck if you so prefer, although you would then have fewer targets to fetch. Changelings are also gods for added consistency.

Good thoughts, especially on the world tree. I was looking to most of these cards in commander personally, the world tree is more relevant if you have a bad manabase in commander and want to play some 3-4 color decks that includes green that can also fetch with sylvan scrying etc. This means you could risk more cards with riskier manacosts that you might otherwise not even consider for commander at all because their cost sometimes makes it unplayable. Of course there will be the inevitable gods-deck that will be fun to brew but I think there is the case for 4 color silliness too. For standard I never want to guess how any of these pan out because I'm usually wrong.

Quakebringer is a natural fit in Kroxa Rakdos Midrange though, mill the card with anything and suddenly your Kroxas and Bonecrushers are pinging your opponent for 2 a turn (or more, if you have multiple in the grave). Since the deck is heavily focused on discard and attrition, your opponent will be a lot less likely to have removal available than vs, say, aggro. Also, Kroxa pings, Immersturm Skullcairn pings, this pings, Bonecrusher Giant pings, and pings on targetted removal... all the non-combat damage can get out of hand really fast, adding up pressure. Also, nice!

definitely liked this video - very reasonable analysis. few additional comments Starnheim Unleashed: 9:00 Legion Angel or Emeria's Call are almost always strictly better in standard. I think for this card to payoff you need mana doubling cards - but in historic it competes with Finale of Glory, which is almost always superior. 10:37 Raven's Warning: Additionally, the tutor effect happens AFTER your draw step, so you won't be able to benefit from it until you draw another card. This makes it worse because A) you don't know what the opponent will do next turn so you may not make the best tutor decision, and B) Mill is a real thing, especially in standard. This may fit in the Azorius Flyers archetype though. At least you don't have to reveal it though.

Ok, i got to stop you right there. I read ravens warning and my first thought was cgb will play this in more decks than mazemind tome. It is a super value engine, not just for what it does which is nice for 3 mana but for what it makes the opponent do. They have to destroy this before chapter 3 or be ready to flash mill your sideboard wincon, make them waste removal. They have to block your flyer on chapter 2... this is control, they will not have many blockers, do they waste bloodchief on a 1/1 or use the only blocker to prevent 1 instead of blocking the bigger threat on the ground? This card will dominate control because it does everything control wants to do, if you are also holding negate for the broken wings they are going to waste several cards to get rid of your turn 3 tempo play. Heed my words, cgb will run this often and learn to love it before it rotates out. Btw, you can preorder now on coolstuffinc.com use code cgb5 and save 5%!

Lochmere serpent is good in the deck since you can sacrifice lands to its abilities and get them back with Jorn’s staff. Also priest of the hunted edge is quite nice in a snow deck.. then to get it back with the staff is sweet. Lastly, Ascendent Spirit is definitely stellar. It reminds me of knight of the ebon legion in its ability to win in its own.

I still think raven's warning will be sweet in a baneslayer/dream trawler kind of UW midrange control deck because even if either the saga or the flyer gets removed, they use a removal spell out of their hand which means you get to keep your mazemind tome and/or baneslayer. Or they could just remove those and you keep your saga which is fun too. I could be wrong though, I'm just really excited about hand-looking and cheap wishboard effects in UW colours.

I think the only way to play the world tree is in a janky gruul or temur control. I think the goal for it has to be OTK that is hard to stop which to me means using it to slam quadruple terror of the peaks. obviously this means the nexus is a must. basically using it as the wincon and running red burn and maybe blue counter to keep the opponent at bay with sublime epiphany and whirlwind denial being the only way to interfere

so about the guild color tap lands. It's a tapland that offers a single color in a deck that must be 2 or more colors. That downside is so horrendous that you wouldn't even want to play these lands in a land slot. They'd be best played in a similar slot to back lands. 2 of these lands to remove 1 basic land.

I think one missed opportunity with mystic reflection is to turn an opponent's ugin into a ruin crab. It doesn't need to be used offensively to get you better creatures.

crab is fun, i like a wall token as well, since chances are they might be killing the crab regardless but wall token will just sit on the field ignored unless theres a bored opponent or something

I don't think you got something wrong, but this video represents most of what I don't like about MTGA. all of these cards are great for casual play, we just don't get any of that in the unranked queue. I miss playing with my friends 20 years ago, where we had all sorts of whacky decks, filled with unplayable jank. I even miss playing MTGO 10 years ago, there was a genuine casual environment there. MTGA is all about competition and net decking.

Thats right. CGB makes this clear and he does a great job evaluating the cards for MTGA competetive play , but I also miss online casual play events. I also think that magic cards tell a story and have a lot of poetic potential, which it what a try to highlight on on my channel.

Thanks for your insights CGB! I love the content and I’m excited to play with Kaldheim. On deeper pondering I agree with you about the World Tree, though I’m mainly excited to put the World Tree in my mono-colored decks that have some off color activations. I’m thinking of mono-white Kenrith or Golos. The rest of the time, you are probably right about the Tree being too slow or unnecessary. Thank you again for the content and insights.

I agree with almost all of them except Quakebringer. My buddy has been playing izzet giants (proxies) and it puts in work. When there are four of them in the graveyard and the opponent lands one giant in the late game they untap and you take 8.

Mystic Reflection seems like it could be fun sometimes in an EDH deck but it is very conditional. Its text makes it seem like it is versatile, but there are too many exceptions in EDH that make it a dead card. Maybe it's not worth the $6 that TCGPlayer says the card is worth.

Some of these I thought were just ok, I mean the uncommon lands are kind of universal in their colors, especially the UW one. The only one I'd put in enigmatic etrata is the dimir port. Reanimation is really useful when your etrata's are removed or milled. Other than that I thought that mystic reflection would be just a good card, but drown in the loch does exist. All of CGB's points are good points. But really, people think the word tree is an auto-in? It's... it's just not that good.

I agree with you specially the land cycle and the angels foretell card. Beware though the Cosmos Charger let's you foretell at instant speed, not cast the cards at instant speed. So you still can only make the Angels on your turn and have to wait until the next to attack which is why I'm not even that much excited about the card in the foretell focused deck. Although it could be a decent finisher for control still, if you foretell it early. Also absolutely agree with the World Tree beign ridiculously overrated, like if you have 6 lands already you should have all the colours you need for the most part.
