I guessed right that Liliana was the strongest bomb. She is absolutely backbreaking in limited. IDK if Zimone will perform that much better than Kaito or Sire. I probably would have put her at 7th or something
I sometimes wonder whether or not I should count these videos as part of my quest to get "Top 10 Vintage Cards (Minus Power 9)", hence why I was very late. Obviously, I decided I should. Let's do it, it won't bomb at all!
I called the first place. One of my favorite cards after pulling her from a tournament prize pack. I didn't have her in the tournament itself, but she was immediately pulled to my first commander deck.
i beat a sire of seven deaths by dumping two turns worth of mana onto the 1/4 reach deathtouch spider to make it have 8 toughness and stall out sire, then mill out my opponent with consuming aberration That spider is secretly a mythic in the common slot
Bloodthirsty Conqueror combined with Enduring Tenacity does an infinity life-loss loop for your opponent.... wonder if they will ban the card or if its fair game.
Not sold on the sphinx at #9. 4 mana 3/3 flash flyer is fine but nothing that impressive, and the fact that it has to attack and have worthwhile spells in your graveyard..idk. Seems inconsistent
Thing is, UB and UR are spell decks, or play enough of them. If you play this on turn 4/5, there will be at least a removal or even a Think Twice on your Graveyard (even if Think Twice has flashback itself). I see the sphinx as a possible 2 for 1 always, or even a 3 for 1 in some cases
I feel Koma might be more appropriate. They both have attack triggers, but I think Koma's might be more impactful in limited. Constructed, the sphinx would probably do better in standard
Twin flame also benefits from the update to combat damage assignment. Since you cam now asign nom lethal damage that is then double to be lethal (for multiblocks and such)
It's on the honorable mentions. Being so expensive (and mana intensive) and not doing something right away keeps it from the top 10 for me. Obviously great, though.
Why in God's name didn't they make Sire of Seven Deaths legendary? JFC, I know people are like 7 mana is a lot. Yeah, 7 colorless and no drawback. Should've been at least some Eldrazi mana requirements or something.
It is very rare for them to make legendary eldrazi outside of the 3 titans. The only other 3 are legendaries basically just because they needed new commanders for the eldrazi precons.
That Quilled Wurm is fucking crazy. It's basically a must-exile o must-board-wipe, otherwise it's basically unkillabe, and it gets silly with first strike or double strike because it renders your boardstate into a towering position. Way Too Busted
Indeed. DS, makes this thing absolutely nuts. If the Wurm is alone and has DS, it attacks for 7, gets 7 counters and then resolves for another 14 TRAMPLE DAMAGE. And by the end of that first combat, he'll be a 28/28 trampler. JFC!!!!
When you say “at parody” what do you mean? I’ve been watching your videos a long time and took me awhile to catch up on all the MTG lingo. This one confuses me.
@NizzahonMagic oh, fk, my bad, yeah. A 3/3 every turn for no extra mana investment is just busted, and, if needed, you can instead power up a trampler or a flier. I was very impresse with it in my prerelease deck, but I also only drew it in one game 😅
Had to explain what “bricked” meant to my game design professor today
How did it go?
That professor "bricked itself"
I only know vaguely from a friend repeatedly saying it and Jon oh videos lol
Change schools, then.
@@littlemrdoom5997 "erection" and then everyone stopped laughing
15:05 Liliana's ultimate surprises many people because will decimate lands too.
Sire of Seven Deaths should have been card number 0007
It's nice that Mythics feel that powerful in this set. Although the power level for a core set does seem a bit pushed.

Well I want that Chandra figure, so this may be the first sponsorship from youtube that I use
I want the dream play of Doubling Season into Lili then ult.

Mossborn hydra! I brought it to 1 billion counters +1 ! This beast has no limits
I had Lilly at my pre release tonight. Went 4-0 very easily. She’s so good in limited.
perfect time for a distraction. thanks!
Would love to see a top 10 ranking of Foundation reprints. I mean Lilianna would prolly top that list but I think it would be interesting to see.
Only realistic way to win over Liliana here is the Maxx-"C" Challenge.
Always love your vids just before the prerealese, they help me a ton!
Kaito is on juice. There, I said it. How do you bulk up like this in a matter of a few sets?
on a manifest dread, can you still use the morph cost if the creature has it or is it strictly its mana cost?

Were you only considering rares/mythics for this? Overrun is quite possibly the strongest card in the format at Uncommon.

It's a cool card, but it's just decent in Limited, as evidenced by the mediocre win-rate.

@ if it survives. But I think a lot of it may hinge on how good those spell based decks end up being.
I feel Koma might be more appropriate. They both have attack triggers, but I think Koma's might be more impactful in limited. Constructed, the sphinx would probably do better in standard
I feel like kaito is one of the rare planesealkers that has a resinable chance to ise his ultimate, maybe not in limited but in generell.
My problem with me getting bombs; I never get an support for the card.
Always worth a splash if you have the mana base for it

9:52 I don’t think you read trample it can’t be chump blocked.
Yes these will be the last traditional magic cards for a while
Its time to take a year off i guess 😅.
Well hopefully the in-universe sets are not TOO out there, but i doubt that.
@Shimatzu95 Well, let me see there's a racing.There is supposed to be one in the space. So yeah this is the last traditional set for a while
@heath1948 at least takir looks normal 😅
@@Shimatzu95 very true
Thank you
I think you forgot Koma

@@danielsniff6405 Could use a drawback in my opinion at least. But hot damn what a creature.
@Kasigi03 the drawback is that it costs 7 mana. It's pretty good for 7, but atleast you need to jump through some hoops to get there
Its seven mana it doesn’t need a drawback in modern magic
That Quilled Wurm is fucking crazy.

As an old school player..I still don't like planeswalkers 😅
yeah, they suck. I was really glad that planeswalkers were much less relevant in recent years....i guess this will change now again
😂 and what can u do about it?
I love planeswalkers and think they make for interesting games
I drew a lilly Anna in each sealed yesterday and didn't use either.
When you say “at parody” what do you mean? I’ve been watching your videos a long time and took me awhile to catch up on all the MTG lingo. This one confuses me.
I'm saying "at parity."
Basically, if neither player is ahead nor behind, you are at parity
For constructed play, this set isn't great. I'm going to play pre-release, but I highly doubt I will draft it much
Ummmmm you forgot Overrun! ;)
Sylvan Awakening is better than the Sphinx and Kaito, at least.
Do you mean Sylvan Scavenging?

god i hate celestial armor, its armor that gives 0 ass power
Did you mean toughness? It actually gives +2/+0
@@danielsniff6405 toughness is ass power, yes
It does give indestructible and hexproof tho, so flavour wise it still protec
blah blah blah
You really woke up today and thought to yourself "today im gonna make an impact" huh?
