[@WigglyCoop007]

I have watched CGB play hundreds if not thousands of azorius control games. I have seen him cycle 100s of sharks typhoons. I can not explain my deep satisfaction with him playing not one but TWO shark typhoons!!! Bruh it doesn’t get any better than that. Plus playing on the back foot the whole match with like 5 life for 15 mins. I mean cmon a control players dream! Thank you CGB even if u lost the double shark slam was my magic highlight this week and it wasn’t even me playing! Thanks again

Glad you enjoyed it!

My only problem with Azorious is when it’s land drop say go counter/ remove what opponent plays. I don’t mind it at all when it has an actual win progression that isn’t counter everything until I play my win con

[@purplatypus7405]

@@trombonepower1 Thats exactly what I love about it though. I LOVE just saying no to everything the opponent does and then my end game is some dumb ass jank card that I desperately want to win with. It was Dream Trawler for awhile until I realized that card is not nearly as jank as I thought haha

Finally the cgb UW control deck for 2021! I have been playing 4 yorions in a 60 card deck and going for the charming prince loop and when it works it works great but a lot of times its just too slow to set up and too easy for adventures to interact with. Cant wait to try this version out.

[@covertgoblue]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@k.westerling2754]

I feel like running runed halo instead of lantern is better. It has more synergy withthe archon and actually destroys aggressive decks (especially after blinking it changing protection to whatever you need most) plus it gives you protection from Zenith Flare.

[@RPG_Bliss]

Good idea

[@RedMoonArcade]

I've been playing an Izzet Adventures deck that looks very similar to a mono Red deck. Copying [Boulder Rush] (from Rimrock Knight) or [Rage of Winter] (from Queen of Ice) many times is great!! Also, having Lucky Clovers when you steal their adventures with Robber of the Rich is great. Also going face with Bonecrusher Giant. You can even play Embereth Shieldbreaker to destroy all their artifacts as well!! Would love to see an actual pro create a list for it :D Do it CGB!!

[@themadichib0d]

[@kgx8805]

Cool deck, as a fellow control player I can relate how hard it is to play control in this format. I prefer Jeskai, Esper and Grixis to just UW, but that is just because I am not that much into holding up counter-magic, I'd rather tap out myself and answer threats. Still I enjoy watching your take on control in a really fast format. Thanks for the content!

Thanks for the video. Great insight on how to pilot the deck.

[@covertgoblue]

[@andrelarocque5967]

Soul guide lantern is an extremly underrated card. For one mana it really forces a lot of meta decks to eventually interact with it and in best of one at worst you get card draw from it. Gotta say too that dance of the manse with birth, soul guide and typhoon together are game enders as well late game.

[@escapegoat8704]

Hi CGB, vs the Mono-black opponent you could have given them back their Massacre Wurm (after they chose to Murderous Rider your Yorion) and also blinked your Wall token, that way when you Shatter the Sky you don't take any damage from the Wurm.

[@pr0zak55]

Heliods intervention could deal with a playset of lucky clovers fairly easily or gain some life if not. Anyway, the last game was epic! Nice content as always.

[@kongruss218]

that game against the mono black control game was captivating

[@cynicle]

Control mage is back baby! That win against mono black control was epic! My favourite part is the BM manual tapping you always do, like at 53:21 how you look at casting Yorion with the auto tapper and then....NO, mind games bitch, and manual tap all the same lands to rub in the fact you have other cards you can play and crush any last smidge of hope he builds. I'm going to incorporate that into my gameplay now 😃 10/10

[@vincentcudet5607]

Hey dude ! New sub to the channel here, been following your stuff for a good couple of month now and I really enjoy it ! Always super relevant, thorough and concise at the same time. I've always been a big fan of BW control, use to play the archetype way back when Morningtide was around and have always loved the archetype ever since. What do you think about maybe including fae of wishes in the list ? Maybe that's way to slow in current meta I don't know.

Try it out and let me know how it goes. Thanks for the sub! Glad to have you here!

I have the feeling that a golgari aggro-control deck could be the best in these meta. Gemrazer, return to Nature (clovers, this deck, embercleave). Cript and scavenging against cycling, kroxas, uros, black with lurrus, etc... Murderous rider and a bit more removal, maybe extinction event against mutation, winota, ugin, etc etc. Patience and frustration as a wincon haha.
