    The main difference between the success of this blue deck and the failure of other recent ones is the presence of proactive plays. Two mana counters look so much better when you have a real board presence to back them up. Ocelot Pride/Usher were MVP’s here.

      @@kevinsun7617 I still prefer my old “snap control” deck (Myth Realized, Narset Transcendant, Citadel Siege, End Hostilities, counters, o ring effects, lifelinking man land, and the surprisingly good 3-mana manarocks that animate into dragons, aka “Not a dude.deck,” from DTK Standard), but aggro control is fun, too. Snap control is just control the game, starting with a one drop do-nothing enchantment, it gets bigger and threatens to block with each negate/dispel/gone awry/stasis snare/mana rock/planeswalker/board wipe I play, Citadel Siege on dragons to slow them down and force playing into my wrath, then one on Khans to end the game in three or less turns, once I have enough counters to keep my not-a-dudes safe while beating face. Myth realized letting me hold up all my mana every turn was a really good creature for only 1 mana (to play or activate).

    You do in fact love to see it. Grats on the 3-0. While I enjoy the brutal beatings and the combo decks fizzling out and never ever drawing what you need ever no matter what, it had honestly gotten kind of depressing. Welcome back to the win column.

      For gameplay, nobody does it better, for limited information, nobody does it better, for personality and talking Magic, LSV is great but if you're looking then there's also the goldfish crew, and cardmarket, also cardmarket's game play is pretty good. Then there's Rarran, CGB and Cimo along with some other team ups which is just a show on the periphery of the game but those are really enjoyable as well.

    Just to be sure : you can blink Parallax Wave with Phelia, and it'll be back with its full 5 fading counters right ?

    • @dementievatz
      @dementievatz 19 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Yes, and the downside is that any creatures under it are immediately in play to block Phelia. But if that isn’t important, it’s a nice reset.
      Parallax Wave also has fun interactions with Flickerwisp.

    • @michaeldegrave5905
      @michaeldegrave5905 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Been bad for years and gets worse with every new power crept set. You can’t spend 4 mana on a card and pray your creature survives just to dish out two temporary -1/-1’s.

    • @dementievatz
      @dementievatz 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I think that’s a little overblown - Jitte does still crush some games. It’s definitely better in decks with fast mana, or as a backup target for Stoneforge. But often it’s too slow for sure.

      I think it’s slightly overrated in cube, def not as good as Ragavan, its better as a build around card for constructed. It can be strong early and in the late game if you have life gain and token generators together which is a lot to ask for in cube. Mother of Runes might be the best white one drop still.
