I enjoyed this final more than any other I have seen in the history of magic:
Technicians doing 1000010 life for fun?
Tamada going yolo and keeping a 0 land hand?
Takimura having won and asked what he wants now says I want to go to my wife?
This is the spirit. Above all MtG is a game and should be fun even at this level. A lesson for some tight up and pretentious other pros out there
+MrVardARIS Tamada definitely went YOLO
roflmao
Rest in peace Mr.Takimura 🙏
Loved his interview where he said he just wanted to be home w his wife. Played flawlessly entire T8 and battled through despite the ridiculous amount of mulligans. May you RIP.
Oh, I wonder where was the Zendikar part of the pro tour? oh wait, it's just Gideon #ProTourGideon
+raitosureya01 the duals ? i think they play a huuge role in the current standard
XHeadhunter66
as a generalization, the dual lands/fetches/ shocks, etc. are a staple in any multicolor deck. the enemy colored manlands did help but they made up a small part of the deck compared to the khans block portion of the deck.
+raitosureya01 I think the point was that a huge huge impact that BFZ has was introducing these fetchable lands which allowed for all these insane multi-color decks. If this was still khans block you couldn't get away with playing jeskai charm and crackling doom in the same deck.
+Royal Tarts you mean the bfz dual lands or whatever?
Previous sets always make up the bulk of pro tour decks. More time played, synergies developed, etc, etc.
Abzan vs Jeskai... that's a funny looking Battle for Zendikar
I bet you comment on the Pro Tour Gatecrash Finals and go "Why the fuck is it Mardu vs. Jeskai?! THATS A FUNNY LOOKING GATECRASH"
@@rylon30 😐
This will sound silly, but it drives me wild seeing two players rewrite life totals in-sync 50:03
It's the little things.
+Slam-Dunk Cosmos the japanese are known for this sorta thing eh, they practiced this in secret until they fainted
+Slam-Dunk Cosmos ROBOTS
WOW SIEGE RHINO WINS ANOTHER PRO TOUR WHO'DA THUNK IT
+Joe Nitrate lol are u stupid abzan won 2 pro tours including this one. rdw won 2.
+Joe Nitrate thank goodness rdw didnt win again :P
+devilboy561 RDW?
instinctz1 red deck wins
+Joe Nitrate I think this is fine, because maybe, just maybe, jace will stop being 80 dollars. Maybe.
Nice Pro Tour Battle for Zendikar without Battle for Zendikar
Not sure why but I love this match. I think I've watched this about 5 times.
My fave one is the Tamada vs Finkel match!
I really wonder what Tamada's reasoning for keeping a 0 land hand was.... it seems so weird.
+vantha doun bet he regretted that REAL HARD
the Japan mirror! that's awesome.
Phage Highspirits that strategy is always in the top 8 that’s why mushashi is so good
1000010 life XD I laughed to much at this...
Anyone know what those blue sleeves are that Takimura was using?? I can't seem to find them anywhere!
(spoiler)
FOOLS! .. YOU ALL UNDERESTIMATED THE POWER OF ABZAN~!
Good spoiler alert
Jund(better removal, competitive worthiness) >Abzan
is this decklist still viable in standard?
+justin emery Yes, standard has from Dragons of Tarkir to SOI. No need to thank me😎
+Jenn Koh oops not the whole deck...
What is the end credit music? I have to know. Please help me. Anyone know?
Sleeves failure on both sides, and compulsory punishments to those sleeves were scornfully conducted.
Am i missing something or are they still not able to link the beginning of the matches..
Cannot wait till khans rotates
YES! No more SIEGE RHINO!
+TheFreddyEvilGaming Show fuck its another year
+TheFreddyEvilGaming Show But i like siege rhino :(
+Zac Chandler who doesn't? It's just value
+Vulcan Hades I agree lol! By the time Siege Rhino rotates out, Jace flipwalker could be the next haha
Little rules question: how is it possible that disdainful stroke counters Hangarbackwalker on X=2? I always thought that for the cmc of a card X is always 0.
X is treated as zero while it's not on the stack, and when it is, X is the mana spent to cast it, in this case 4 and thus valid for Disfainful Stroke
It was no surprise that only Jace, Gideon and lands were added to the metagame. What is going to be interesting is watching the Oath and Shadows pro tours, and seeing later sets have to be searched for something, anything, to try in vain to replace the Dragons and Khans glory cards
what forests are takimura using?
Fucking Rhino just never goes away-.-
Right? Biggest rival in my local meta since forever it seems.
+John Cummings Splashed for it in my Mardu deck, and it is that good XD
The only reason why I have 4 disdainful stroke in every one of my decks. Im that mentally scarred because of him....
CommanderSh!mi X Disdainful Stroke and Roast share the work in my new Standard deck
Can anyone help me to understand how did Takimura killed the token an Gideon at 1:16:26 ? Thanks...
Dromoka's Command the Token, and Anafenza giving herself the counter to become a 4/4 and kill Gideon.
Great commentating guys! Keep it up!
+ViralPlume Great reply guy! Keep it up!
+Drew Stassel It's sports commentary- their job is to say things that are obvious and/or doesn't mean anything so you feel like you know more about what's going on. It's at least helpful when you can't see the cards clearly.
I miss live coverage of paper magic so so bad
Is there something wrong with my eyes or the camera? Tamada looks really tiny! Look how big the cards are comaired to his hands!
is this abzan decklist still viable in standard? I almost have all the cards for it and I don't know much about magic or what else to play
Shame man they recently rotated out of standard #badbeats
+Crimson Dragon I know. I ended up putting it together about 6-7 weeks before it rotated out. I have all the fetches and everything now and I don't play modern so.. lol. I've got a few grand worth of cards that I dunno what to do with
Play modern?
Ah my first set
Still love it today
1 million and 10!! So epic!!
50:12 you can see the quality of Ultra Pro made in China sleeves
+MrHeenock More like why the fuck Japanese players are using Ultra Pro when they have so many better options...
+PraetorGix Kmc were made in Japan are they not? Best sleeves on the market, And using chinese made sleeves instead? Weird
+CommanderSh!mi X
Sponsors !?
Dont you dare call my tangos battle lands again
where does one buy that playmat?
Online, local gamestore
I feel like Tamada keeping the no land hand at the beginning of game 4 was effectively him throwing the match
CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT CARD SLEEVES KAZUYUKI USING? PLZ they are beautiful :')
+xRESIDENTEVILSTARSx Speedy Gonzales dark blue.
thanks, is their a website for them? in US dollars?
Why do the cards look so big in their hands? lol
so i think i'm going to build black blue aristocrats does any one think it will be played or descent also what are its weaknesses?
blue give you access to whirler rogue which can make your attacks with nantuko husk more lethal also one of the cards i would like to try is fathom feeder and ingest into blight herder maybe splash green for collected company? idk maybe ill try sultai arsicrats or a grinder blue black control also one card that i dont think has been given credit is grave purge with our sac effect we can get alot of value from that card
Carlos C thanks i just hope on game day we i can trade in for thoughs cards i need
+BillyBobJetFish Its main weakness is the lack of siege Rhino
You should also try mardu aristocrats, its similar but with creatures like Butcher of the horde and Alesha who smiles at death. The lack of collected company and counter spells is a major hit but the beatdowns and combos are beautiful in my opinion.
But isn't the cmc on Hangarback Walker zero since it's an XX cost?
X spells don't quite work that way, the CMC on the stack is equal to the mana spent to cast it, in this case 4.
+Michael Gualteros i think that on the stack it's cmc might be whatever was payed for x but im not sure
I really wanted to see a dark horse take it all...
Wizards, PLEASE stop putting the finalists' names in the title. You've been doing it for years now.
+Patricio Ramos Negrete Look for the playlists, go to the channel directly.The finals are in a seperate section so no spoilers.
Why do they keep putting the names of players in the title? FailFish
Really thought Tamada should have Jeskai Charmed the Hangerback back into Takimura's hand game one. Not sure why he didn't do that
Why doesn't Takimura take off his purse? Will the judges and camera crew steal all his loot?
+Krangbot "It's not a purse, it's a satchel" -Dude from Hangover referencing Indiana Jones
so people do it at bigger tournaments so they dont get stuff stolen. its just habit.
gideon is actually the ONLY one card from bfz showing up in the top 8. let's all go buy bfz boosters
+Eyeforaneye While i understand your frustration, you're technically incorrect. Shambling vents and the BFZ dual lands, and dragon master Outcast also showed up as well.
+Eyeforaneye There were a few more... mostly in sideboards... yeah, so much for BFZ slowing down the format. Apparently nobody even feels like it's worth trying to run a control deck with the new cards to build up mana for eldrazi.
Why are they playing with dual lands that don't fit their colors??? Tamada has wooded foothills (Red/Green) and Takimura has Flooded Strand (Blue/Black)!!! Also, Tamada is playing with Cinder Glade (Red/Green)??????
+Kai Jobin because these lands can search for battlelands.
when me and my friends play magic, games usually last about 45 mind to an hour. so many of these pro tour games last less than 10
I like how the new set was so bad there were only a handfull of bfz cards in the protour
37:51 This made me so happy!
Why did you have to put the two finalists' names in the header and spoiler it for people who were going to be watching this for the first time? :/
+PrestonDLuffy I guess they expect you to watch live and just watch here for replays?
+PrestonDLuffy It's easier for people to go back find certain matches..
The people responsible for the scoreboard had their parents killed in a rhino stampede when they were four. They responded by giving the Jeskai player 999,990 more life than the Abzan player.
The only thing wrong about the Jeskai player getting 1,000,010 life was the fact it was taken away.
HELLO AND WELCOME TO THE FIRST QUIDDITCH GAME OF THE SEASON TODAYS EVENT SLYTHERIN VS GRYFFINDOR
Why do all these protour games end when someone is at 5 life?
wtf? who keeps a no lander?
you can disdainful stroke an x-cost card? Wouldn't the cmc be 0? or 2 at the most? No matter how much mana you put into x, the cmc never changes, right?
in your hand cmc is x=0. but if you cast it x becomes however much you paid
interesting, thank you
I just played a BFZ draft today XD I got 1st place with a ub control deck against OB NIXILIS and GIDEON and Drana, Liberator and people that just had better luck... :)
I like how throughout the season, that Khor Ally (or Kohr) is just standing in the back the whole time. Watching everyone play.
"I wish.... Someone would tap me like that..."
There is no h
keeping that no land hand was a HUGE mistake.
I hear Abzan is a popular color combination atm.
This goes a long way towards explaining the new rotation rules. Where is the Battle for Zendikar? I see no allies. I see no landfall. I see no eldrazi.
i wonder why no one tryed a ramp elderazi deck
Because BFZ is underpowered and the whole set folds to 4 Siege Rhinos.
good move ryoichi tamada. Lets keep a 0 land hand in pro tour finals.
Yolo
If he were to mulligan again, a 5 card hand against a 7 card abzan hand would have ended with game loss as well sadly.
+CommanderSh!mi X but may have had better chances than top decking lands and falling behind in turns and power
LSV is a great color commentator
@51:00 mins ish lol he wanted to say solemn simulacrum so bad
37:50 ever asked yourself if the stream overlay can handle 1 million Life :D
ugh so tired of seeing abzan everywhere. cant wait for it to rotate out :/
So it seems the biggest impact BFZ had on standard was the lands and Gideon. Well done pro-tour. They should have called it 'Pro Tour Khans of Tarkir 2.0'
Seems like everyone is playing it safe instead of diving into the new set brewing decks. Yawn!
No one caught the 1:03:10 joke? It that Betrays?
That Ian Duke guy needs some camera classes.
no land hand O_o
Platinum status players get 3000,- just for attending the other world tours!!! WHAT!?
a million life :)
if the tamada didn't keep the hand with no lands he probably could have won
Instead of pretty much giving the opponent a free win
one could argument that mulling to 5 against a 7 card hand from abzan is very close to a game loss. he just put everything into drawing his lands early
+Andrew Carranza Agreed, the announcers were stunned that he decided to put so much risk into topdecking a land. it was a very risky move. I cant believe he decided to keep a No lands hands.... still stunned at that 4th game.
WE WANT MODERN!!!!
no one cares lol
this kind od reminds me of ptktk
It's called Pro Tour Battle for Zendikar, yet every card, with exception to Gideon and some lands, is from Khans block. Why am I even...Oh, yea...Wonka's golden tickets--present this at the door and receive 100$.
"...flag ship card..." that made me giggle, a little ;P o7
Pretty sure Surge of Righteousness doesn't get Shambling Vent...
+Hank Carver
why? its black.
You're correct. Forgot that it states its a black and white creature.
haha I thought "Oh yeah finally i can see some BfZ pro gameplay" yeah no its standard :P O_o I've got a sigrist red/blue ensoul deck... i should try to enter somthing before it rolls out of standard.
I hope you're being sarcastic.. you can try modern with that deck but good luck.
+Darian Mero why wont it work in this?
Oh wait M15 has rotated out so ensouls nolonger viable :) now i understand. Meh its still a good deck. Im sure itd be fine in modern unless parts pf it are banned.
Wow, barely any Zendikar cards except lands.
Conversely, battle for zendikar lands make up most of the top 8 basic land bases.
why he have 1000010??WTF?!
Takimura is so cute :3
I bet u Japan's gonna win
Nothing's interesting about players winning on turn 3-6. Ever.
why not? it's impressive in its own way...
+dingding12321 let me guess, you play control
+Joey arce its boring its not fun to win that way or lose its a game if you not having fun your doing it wrong
algum br aqui
eu heuheuehe
Just wanted to comment and say: Lands behind nonland permanents, clear target indication for spells and NO FRICKIN' CARD FLICKING!! Also, I appreciate how neat these two fellas are, damn it. In my area I will reach over and straighten other peoples decks out. lol!
Ryoichi could have completly won if he mulliganed his hand in game 4
he might have won if he didn't punt game 4
#millionandtenlife
Thank god Siege Rhino is gone, Now i wont have to encounter that bastard anymore. At least in standard...
Got until April to go yet! enjoy rhinos for another two months ;)
+The Suave Lion Goddamnit Woc! Im almost about to give up mtg if the fetch lands don't get reduced in price. Especially the Zendikar fetch lands!
yuup 1,000,010 life.
After watching a whole final i must conclude. This game is not about skill, but about money. The amount of choices in this game are subpar once you have a top 8 deck. It are obvious plays.
That's not true. Admittedly, super budget players are less successful but money isn't always the deciding factor. You see the same thing because it's popular and it works.
1million life 😂 omg funny
Siege rhino is for the birds
4-1000010 xD
Ban rhino pl0x xD
Tamada shoulda won but he just tossed game 4 lmao
Siege Rhino needs to become extinct.
american game, final by japanese
abzan didn't win, variance did
It bugs me how Rich Hagon always tries to bring racial division needlessly. It's a card game..
yup.
trump plays magic?????!?!?!?!?!?! HWTATTTT
Siege Rhino wins again...shocking...I guess its MTGoldfish fault huh WoTC? Lol
