The thing to notice about Kozilek, the Broken Reality, is the players you target MUST manifest, it is not a may, so you can effectively have the opponent discard 2 and you draw 2 more.
I've built a very high power build around Sorin. Deck is super good at shotgunning a player for lethal out of nowhere. Deck works real well if you know your pod and can correctly guess who to knock out first.
Glimpse the Impossible is one of the cards I'm most excited for. (For the decks I have). Red doesn't really have 1cmc dorks/ramp but it has a couple of 1 or 2 cmc "perfect mana-storage" cards, but this is a 3 cost one! and late-game it 'draws' you cards!
So many new and exciting cards that Grief is just going to dump in the bin on T1. Also, very amusing watching people continually forget Gravecrawler exists when evaluating Warren Soultrader.
You may be biased but I think you're still spot on when it comes to Marionette Apprentice. Not triggering on all creatures is a step down but getting a body with it balances out. Obviously it won't replace BA and such but definitely joins the deck with them.
I'm playing Tamiyo in Jeskai Control in modern going forward. She's amazingly good. Even if you don't have an instant way to flip her, she stonewalls ragavan, and then rebuys your counterspells or burn spells. Then in the sb, when you bring back pick your poison from the yard, it literally gives you the mana to replay pick your poison. So good.
Hey Dev. Love the content. I recently watched your "Good Riddance" video with PowrDrgn regarding the upcoming rotation. Perhaps I'm fishing for an excuse to have you two in another video, (bc you guys are great together) but how about a video regarding the opposite? Cards you'll MISS after rotation? Maybe just some jank cards you're sad to lose? Just food for thought. Keep up the awesome work!
Hey Dev, for Shadow of the Second Sun, you do get a second main phase. The trigger takes place at the beginning of the turn, but the trigger involves waiting until the second main phase ends.
Thanks Dev for making this video. LOL Watching this video while I put together a Teshar EDH deck and seeing Glaring Fleshraker... that card is going to win me games - Springheart Nantuko is a little confusing but still not as badly written as the Mytho's cycle in Ikoria, ex: 2swamp cmc, Mythos of Nethroi, ''Destroy Target Nonland Permanent if it's a creature or if Forest,Plains was spent to cast this spell'' Still the most confusing card I have read in a long time; why wasn't it written as: '' Destroy target creature. If a Forest,Plains was also spent to cast this spell destory target Nonland Permanent instead.'' How hard was that that WOTC? ;p
I'd like to see rotation-proof deck lists next, please. I play gilgari mid-range, which is virtually rotation-proof. I would like a in depth video on which decks that will survive the rotation
if you cast the emrakul and it gets countered do you just get to keep all your opponent's creatures? because emrakul never entered the battlefield so she can't leave the battlefield in order to sac all your creatures
With a great opening hand/draws, Tron can possibly get Emrakul out turn 3. Play all 3 Tron lands while playing a chromatic star on turn 1 or 2. Get 7 mana, convert 1 to black using the Star, and Thoughtseize yourself targeting Emrakul. I am sure there are easier ways as well. Card seems busted.
I love this channel, but I think of these cards in the cedh sphere. The white Flare is ridiculous and can be used to agonism your whole list. It can also turn off a tax effect creature to do so just incase you are playing around your own hate pieces. The red one is really good since it acts like a deflecting swat in most cases where you are able to snag a spell on the stack or counter their play (anti counterspell anti big spells). The green one is alright and I think it has the least amount of usage considering the speed and that green does that with most of their creatures. Good in a pinch against stuff like cursed totem, bad overall. Black is fair because its good two for one on removal to removal effects and doubles as an instant speed sac outlet which I'm sure someone will abuse in that way to get around stuff that stops creatures like torpor orb.
I can't tell how powerful these eldrazi really are. I just hope there isn't another eldrazi winter effect. Maybe with eye banned, that'll keep it from being too crazy.
So many of these cards are just copies/reimaginings of other cards. That can really cool in moderation (I like Nulldrifter), but am I the only one surprised at the amount of callbacks/references in a single set? 40:30 Some of the cards aren't even all that old and/or iconic. Like Pteramander (RNA, 2019)
This is a good proof of concept, but I really think you can lower the record down by a bit. The most obvious time loss was due to reading every card, as well as the rambling in between each card. All in all it's a good first attempt, but this speedrun can definitely be optimized.
Imagine, modern match: Turn one this card with crab token for one mana and flare of denial in hand. Check, ok I am ready for the game. PS. When I Copy a spell with the red one, do I also have to pay the mana cost of the copied spell?
This is so dumb but I actually hate Emrakul's visual redesign that started with Promised End. Originally Emrakul had this great fractal organic coral reef esque appearance. Promised End and World Anew look like a spaceship with how smooth and geometric they are.
It's 4am, but I'm gonna watch this anyway.
Indeed it's 4 am and yes I am going to watch this

I lost it when he gave Modern and Legacy staple DRC a 2.75 🤣
Drc?
🎴Amazing review, your insights on MH3 are spot on! 🙌
I've built a very high power build around Sorin. Deck is super good at shotgunning a player for lethal out of nowhere. Deck works real well if you know your pod and can correctly guess who to knock out first.
humhum... mind sharing the decklist please ?
Damn, I hate it when you drop a review video right before I go to work, lol. I'm going to have to put my earbuds in and sneakily listen to it.

1:42:27 does the "kindred" card type replace "tribal"?
Drc being a 2.75 is unforgivable. One of the best red creatures ever printed, easy 4.5.
Drc?

Basking Broodscale is probably gonna find a home in pauper
And commander. It combos rather easily, and outside of combo it gives bodies and mana without much effort
The latest edition of Strictly Longer MtG! I’m just playin’ Dev, you know I love you! (Starts Eminem song)

Dev giving DRC a 2.75 rating is hilarious
I was slightly outraged 😅😅😅
Three and a half hours! You think I’m gonna spend that much time on a video a set I have little interest in?
Because you are completely right.

Eladamri seems like a elvish piper that's pretty easy to break...? Like, T1 dork, T2 Eladamri, T3 any other creature, activate Eladamri...
Thanks Dev for making this video.

🔥🔥🔥 Galvanic Discharge
Is Dev just not aware of the existence of tron?
dev is a true grinder, thanks for this long one it was great! :P
every video is a blessing
Bestow Nantuko *onto* Scute Swarm and get everyone confused with the math.
No, you do the math.
If you can't, don't play it.
Thanks for another great video Dev, from a fan in south america

Mondern reprints 3 letttsss gooooo

Is ashling flamedancer like an upwelling? Do you keep the mana after turns are over?
Yes. It’s like the original green omnath
I hope for a good cat deck in modern.

Damn, crazy how different people’s perceptions of card strength can be. I think Gift of the Viper is SUPER versatile and def worth more than a 1.25
10/10 would speedrun again
accursed marauder seems decent for pauper
I can't tell how powerful these eldrazi really are. I just hope there isn't another eldrazi winter effect. Maybe with eye banned, that'll keep it from being too crazy.
thanks for this
Thanks Dev!

Dev, Toxic Deluge is a reprint and iconic EDH staple
Hell yeah!

I want some of these cards, but the power jump is too much for the health of the game.
But where are the splits?
Knew this set was gonna be good. But now everything is spoiled there are so many cards i want!
Imagine, modern match: Turn one this card with crab token for one mana and flare of denial in hand. Check, ok I am ready for the game. PS. When I Copy a spell with the red one, do I also have to pay the mana cost of the copied spell?
flare of malice vs domain. Scion of Draco. this pair up alone will guarantee it gets played.
This is so dumb but I actually hate Emrakul's visual redesign that started with Promised End. Originally Emrakul had this great fractal organic coral reef esque appearance. Promised End and World Anew look like a spaceship with how smooth and geometric they are.
Marionette Apprentice is totally a 4... strictly better Zulaport Cutthroat is great!
White Orchard Phantom also kills your opponents Song of the Dryads
common mtg pocket saving w
Consuming corruption is black skred! lol
Dev, I love you man, but Dragon’s Rage Channeler is famously busted in Modern and Legacy.
Hank bleeds red white and blue
🎉🎉🎉
Just drafted this set yea there are some disgusting cards in this set
That two mana eldrazi has a three card infinite with Kubo and Ayula just saying. Lol still not modern playable though.
Second 😆
First!
