Honestly Glimpse of Nature seems so important to this deck than I believe it should run 2-3 personal tutor to find it. I’m serious! It works great in doomsday, and you can tutor mid-combo for a second glimpse then draw it. I’m surprised it isn’t in the deck already.
I watched this thinking 'soon as I see something weird I'll comment on it but it was a bit like standing in london and saying 'as soon as I see England, I'll say something.'
I think the Salvage Titan might be better than the 7 drop improvise creature in the mainboard. If you have 7 artifacts that you can tap, the affinity count isn’t as relevant and it can be cast after the small improvise creature
Love this. Kinda reminds me of my Jhoira cEDH deck, they are very different in many ways but at the end of the day both run on the principle of "Play artifacts, draw cards/entire deck... "profit".
I used to play a more all-in version of this deck with grapeshot instead of oracle. I found that Artificer's Assistant really increased the consistency of going off.
I built an extremely similar deck some time ago. I think I named it garbage pile. The difference I think is that I also had LED and Echo, your list seems way better than mine.
So I'm taking this Shell and ramming it into Aeve, the storm ooze for EDH. It was the direction I was already taking but now I know the 'competitive' cards to run
@@ThrabenUniversity what about Retract instead? 1 blue and works as a better Scapegoat which was ran in cheerios (except it bounces lands, but this also helps vs meltdown and such. Hurkylls Recall costs twice as much, but can take care of artifact hate on the other side of the table. Titan was MVP imo, and should be ran instead of improvisers.
Would it not be better to just play grapeshot as opposed to thassa's oracle? That way you don't have to worry about your devotion, having double blue, and cards left in library?
Those are good reasons to play Grapeshot, but I don't know if they outweigh Leyline of Sanctity, Veil of Summer, and Flusterstorm all doing something against Grapeshot but not Oracle.
Whenever you said that you were boarding in the Salvage Tits in the dark, it got me thinking, why not just have them main board then and remove the improvisers? The way I saw it was you need 5-7 arts for the Improvisers but only 3 for the STs, which gives you a better game 1 flexibilty and makes room in the board for graveyard/combo hate. As for the board, ethersworn cannonist seems plausible, but still worrisome because of color requirements and turns that you want to glimpse multiple times. I guess that you just have to gauge how soft you are to combo. I just don't think Tormod's crypt is enough for graveyard hate in this deck because graveyard based decks are too resilient. Most graveyard decks are trying to make T1-3 plays, so you usually want that card in your opener to fend it off, but why would you play it instead of leyline? I know the affinity part of it is nice, but shutting down your opponents for a few turns while they 💩 themselves will give you way more stability. And yeah, it doesn't draw cards off of glimpse or do affinity things, but realistically speaking, a.) Neither does crypt, and b.) If you're already going off, drawing a Leyline in place of a crypt has the same effect on your hand. Just my two cents on it. This deck looked so degenerate, I love it.
I wonder if dropping the improvise and an enforcer for the Titans and a brain freeze would be worth it. They have synergy, it synergizes with oracle, it’s a second win con…
Hey boss I dont play MTGO, why are all of your cards in the deck striped? Ive never seen this b4. Maybe you dont own the cards or something but it lets you use in special league? Idk what else it could be and am curious.
This video was a long time ago, but yeah, cards you don't own appear as striped. There might have been a special event going on that let me enter that event using a token.
Losing to decking yourself on turn 1 is the best way to go out. Loved the video, loved the deck. Keep it up man
Glimpse in affinity was something I had started brewing this week. So much for original ideas lol.
Oh yeah, you'll enjoy this one for sure!
@@ThrabenUniversity how will you put the nettlecyst what should i remove.
It's like... Stormless storm, with robots. I dig it.
Match 2 Game 1; I have never yelled "wait" at a TH-cam video before.
so painful 😭
Ikr?!?
I can just imagine what his opponent was thinking...
I wonder if Glimpse decks would ever want to run 1-2 copies of Noxious Revival as Glimpse 5-6

Cool deck. Really seems like a less consistant Cheerios with a better backup beatdown plan.
I agree. The plan B is solid here.
38:06 That time you get to game three and don't even know what deck your opponent is playing...

I could buy that. The titans were real good post sb.
I love this deck. I was yelling so hard at the screen that you had 4 glimpses active during match 2.
This is the kinda list that makes me want to play legacy
Go seek professional help
Seems like a very good deck if there are no sideboards, and a deck to try when Affinity chills for a bit
Yeah, the sheer amount of Meltdowns and such right now is a bit rough.
Love this. Kinda reminds me of my Jhoira cEDH deck, they are very different in many ways but at the end of the day both run on the principle of "Play artifacts, draw cards/entire deck... "profit".
i love how in the deck tech the only card that's in your collection is nettle nettlecyst 🤣🤣🤣
Was hoping you'd do this deck ever since I saw the 5-0 list. It's so cool
I used to play a more all-in version of this deck with grapeshot instead of oracle. I found that Artificer's Assistant really increased the consistency of going off.
I played another league with Grapeshot and really liked it!
Hope of Ghirapur seems like a solid SB plan against blue decks.
the first game of match 2 was so painful, you had it on the bag!
I want to see a vintage version of this cause that sounds insane
O.o
@@ThrabenUniversity academy plus actual moxen, ancestral, and black lotus so much value
It’s call paradoxical outcome :v it’s top meta deck rn I think
@@AIMLESS-NAMELESS shhhh I didn’t mean the good version
This was a really fun league, but 33:15 broke my heart.
Deck could run some beck//call for consistency and either hurkyls recall or retract in some numbers to keep going etc
What will you replace with 1 retract
Thought Monitor / Sojourner's Companion + Neoform = Craterhoof please!
Ah, just as Richard Garfield intended magic decks to be played lol
I built an extremely similar deck some time ago. I think I named it garbage pile. The difference I think is that I also had LED and Echo, your list seems way better than mine.
This seems to have a lot of potential, I wonder if more refined, this deck could out race elves (albeit in a more glass cannony way :L)
I think it is probably a faster Glimpse deck on average than Elves already. I just think Elves has more flexibility, which is worth a ton.
@@ThrabenUniversity what about fitting gaea's cradle in the deck? Maybe replace thassa's oracle with old good crater behemoth?
@@matthewgrilli4497 cradle is reasonable, but it isn't going to be an initial mana source for glimpse without "wasting" a creature.
21:41 doesn't your artifact land + 2 moxs turn on metalcraft? I must be missing something.
I HAD NO IDEA MOX OPAL IS LEGENDARY
So I'm taking this Shell and ramming it into Aeve, the storm ooze for EDH. It was the direction I was already taking but now I know the 'competitive' cards to run
That was fun! What would you change to try to run this in vintage? How do you think it would do?
Nice deck. Legacy deck for a standard deck price... even better
I might build this in person because it is somewhat budget compared to other legacy decks.
What about using that one mana blue instant that returns all artifacts to your hand
cool deck. But isn't grapeshot better than Thassa's Oracle? Since it can't be countered.
Thassa's oracle probably win through more things.
This deck is sick!
is concordant crossroads or grape shot a thing in place of thassaś oracle here, less chance to mill yourself xD
I think Thassa's win through more stuff...usually.
Any consideration to paradoxical outcome or is it too much mana
Reminds me of old Kobold Clamp decks
😂 oh man, that match two was amazing to watch
I think grapeshot will be a good card in the deck, maybe instead of TO
Is something like retract or paradoxical outcome worth it in a more refined version of the deck?
Uh, PO seems a little hard to cast, but would otherwise be good in theory.
@@ThrabenUniversity what about Retract instead? 1 blue and works as a better Scapegoat which was ran in cheerios (except it bounces lands, but this also helps vs meltdown and such. Hurkylls Recall costs twice as much, but can take care of artifact hate on the other side of the table.
Titan was MVP imo, and should be ran instead of improvisers.
Adding beck/call and grapeshot as a win con is same idea, but more consistent turn 1 wins
Would it not be better to just play grapeshot as opposed to thassa's oracle? That way you don't have to worry about your devotion, having double blue, and cards left in library?

@@GatekeeperDatuck good point, I wasn't taking meta into consideration.
0:2 start. Dont care if you product. You should with any tear1 deck?
Crossroads over Oracle, perhaps? Haste should be lethal, right?
Crossroads is probably better. But imo brainfreeze might be better aswell.
Degen queue is real, love this deck

Wow looked fun!
I play moldy/grape cheerios for legacy I win about almost of the time by turn 1 and I have 2 different win cons
I wonder if dropping the improvise and an enforcer for the Titans and a brain freeze would be worth it. They have synergy, it synergizes with oracle, it’s a second win con…
Maybe a 1 of Beck/Call and even a noxious revival of brain freeze is in

@@ThrabenUniversity Thanks :D
Crazy to think how much of this deck was standard legal at the same time.
There were Kobolds who wished only for Glimpse at starting hand as well )
And the number of the count is 4, not 3, not 1, and 2 is right out. ,,, alright how many glimpses did i cast again? three? hmmmm
Hey how do I contact you to submit a donation decklist I have something spicy

Has not dying to bolt ever NOT be a good thing in legacy? XD
He said floop. Heh... floop the pig.
what happens vs force of will on Thassa's Oracle?
Leave a card in your deck and then attack next turn.
Game 1 you really should have played that 2nd Glimpse on the winning turn. You had everything to lose if you bricked into lands.
Like the deck, but I found myself almost screaming at the screen with how you were playing it 🙃
intro gets a like from me
Done something close with reckless fire weaver
retract!
ah, what an unfortunate time to miscount
Lol
Disgusting (in the most fun way possible).
