    That was really fun Seth. Thanks for always sounding cheerful and happy to be alive and playing Magic. When I heard your first video, I was like "wtf is this for so happy?". And now I'm like "what do I have to do with my life so I can sound that happy???". You rock!!!

    Sweet deck - but it seems a little awkward with a bunch of 2 - drop cumulative upkeep creatures that you are playing before you play your 3 - drop solemnity

    • @conovan5081
      @conovan5081 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      He can't use coco properly if he doesn't do that unless he puts gazillion 3drops and put even more 1 mana ramp creatures but I do agree it does feel weird.

    • @TheGahta
      @TheGahta 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      he is not intentind to curve out but rather play underpriced threats that punch way above their weight. So him needing to get a solemnity down before is not that relevant when he can gat a couple of them down for a fraction of their real worth.

    3:18 I'm confused as to why he didn't play Cover of Winter. Would have pretty much won him the game even if he only ever got one counter on it before solemnity

  • @thecollectiblecollectabill2298
    @thecollectiblecollectabill2298 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    i saw this deck a while ago and without watching the games i ordered 4 cover of winters to go with my eon hubs... i just watched the deck and it had nothing to do with cover of winter. but i loved it, other than wasting the 5th and 6th Zur searches for more copies of the win over, say, ANY OTHER ENCHANTMENT(detention sphere's great against tokens)

  • @despacito4285
    @despacito4285 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    32:22 I see only 1 counter on that elf...

  • @SheyVick
    @SheyVick 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Since you are playing Zur why not have at least 1 copy of enchantment removal in the deck, like detention sphere? Or at least the SB. I know you are running a "combo" but I feel like sometimes you just want removal. 1 copy of a card you can fetch seems like very low cost for a lot of upside.

  • @bryantan4228
    @bryantan4228 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Eon Hub would work almost like 4 more copies of Solemnity for cumulative upkeep purposes.

    • @androkguz
      @androkguz 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yes!! This tech is necessary.
      In fact, it would be even better because you could keep things with counters already on them, without paying the cumulative upkeep

  • @alexrook3792
    @alexrook3792 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    It's not that the creature dies because you can't put on a counter while solemnity is on the battlefield. it's that you still have to pay for the counters already on it, even if you can't put a counter on it. IE when sheltering agent had a counter on it and then you played solemnity, you still have to put a +1/+1 counter on a creature each turn. Solemnity just stops it from getting bigger.

    • @MTGGoldfish
      @MTGGoldfish  7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I think Solemnity kept us from putting a counter on the creature to pay for the age counter though (since Sheltering Ancient's cumulative upkeep is put a +1/+1 counter on a creature).

    • @nathanbarrett5687
      @nathanbarrett5687 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Nope, the cost of the upkeep is to put counters on the creature, so if you can't pay the cost (put a counter on a creature) you have to sac it. For example if we just had a Sheltering Ancient out (no Solemnity) and our opponent just had a Tatterkite (can't have counters placed on it), at our upkeep we put an age counter on Ancient and then pay the cost for each age counter. The cost is to put a +1/+1 counter on an opponent's creature, but Tatterkite doesn't allow that so we can't actually pay the cost and have to sac Ancient. Solemnity essentially makes every creature into a Tatterkite, it makes it so Ancient cannot see any creature that it can put counters on, so we have no choice but to sac it.

    I think it's funny that even without solemnity, shrieking affliction can't kill a player through phyrexian unlife because losing life isn't damage.

    • @zackestin1368

      But the rack is damage not loss of life.

  • @ErroneousClique
    @ErroneousClique 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I feel this deck should be running 1 to 2 Idyllic Tutors to ensure that you can more reliably get a solemnity on the board by turn 4 at the latest. You dont want to be drawing dead due to no solemnity and drawing countless low costed cumulative upkeep creatures. Best part is if you already got the Solemnity and top a tutor, go the the Unlife to lock out the opponent while you have your fun.

    • @bzfiddleness
      @bzfiddleness 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      ErroneousClique idyllic tutor is way too expensive, not worth taking turn 3 off especially against aggressive decks where sheltering ancient is pretty decent.

    • @brewbrewbrewthedeck4138
      @brewbrewbrewthedeck4138 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      It also double as our sideboard enchantments.

    • @ErroneousClique
      @ErroneousClique 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes Zur is in there but he is a 4--drop which needs to attack - meaning no enchantment tutor until turn 5 at the earliest without ramp. I would run 3 Idyllic Tutors and maybe 1 Zur as he cant even double as a backup wincon due to 1 power (and dies to path and push with revolt on). That way you are more consistently getting combo pieces out on board by turn 4 latest. I still dont see the downside to this...
      As far as Idyllic being to slow, it is 3 CMC. It is much faster than Zur and cheaper as well. And compared to our wealth of 2 and 3 CMC creatures that we want solemnity out for them to be effective and stay in play with their upkeep costs, all our enchantments are slow. IMO Idyllic is the lesser of two evils (when compared to Zur which is cute but much slower and suffers from summoning sickness the turn it is played).

    • @bzfiddleness
      @bzfiddleness 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      ErroneousClique zur doesn't just turor enchantments he puts them on the battlefield with a repeatable trigger and is a relevant 4 toughness body. What would you cut for 3 idyllic tutors?

    Saheeli Cat combo is really stupid. It’s not so much annoying that the combo exists, but that both pieces were printed in the exact same

  • @lifeiaskedfor
    @lifeiaskedfor 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    to be honest i don't really think it's the deck per say, it's just the combo is so good in the meta. No one runs enchantment removal and the time comes down as soon as turn 4. so unless the opponent can win on turn 2, as long as you have a unlife on turn 3 solemnity on turn 4 it's really hard to be the combo. Course not saying combo is unbeatable because you can just sometimes just not draw it and be SOL. But all in all the chances of drawing solemnity or getting something to get one or the other is actually pretty high and fairly consistant

    @Neurodynamic 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Where do you find these decks? This is not the first time I've come up with a brew and been in the middle of the testing/tweaking phase when an against the odds deck comes out that's insanely similar. My version was BW with phyrexian arena and the overwhelming splendor/curse of death's hold lock but the wincon being the same solemnity/unlife/cumulative upkeep creatures package. May be coincidence but this is the 4th time, I think someone who submits decks to you plays on xmage.

    • @funwithgames1
      @funwithgames1 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    • @starmorpheus
      @starmorpheus 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Scott Poole I mean solemnity, when it was spoiled, had a lot of potential, it's not a coincidence that a seasoned magic player like Seth come up with combo decks with it. It all about knowing which cards are out there.

    • @Neurodynamic
      @Neurodynamic 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      True but the chances of solemnity being out as long as it has and 2 people coming up with builds so similar within 4 days of each other is odd. Plus this the 4th against the odds decks that's been almost identical to one I'm working on. Could just be the fact that both me and Seth are in love with brewing but meh. Not mad about it or anything, in fact would be pretty cool if decks I came up with ended up on a channel I watch all the time. Just so crazy to me its happened as many times as it has. In fact shortly after I saw his UW bogles video I got so excited because I had always wanted a good shell to play Arcanum Wings in and that seemed perfect. I built it and went out playtesting then 3 days later out comes hidden treasures featuring none other then Arcanum Wings. Getting kinda crazy.

    • @Neurodynamic
      @Neurodynamic 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'd say Phyrexian Unlife would be the most obvious but I do see what you're saying. I only find it odd that once again within a few days of coming up with a brew it ended up here. At 1st I took it on coincidence but at this point I'm convinced someone who plays xmage as much as me are liking them and sending them his way.

    • @Neurodynamic
      @Neurodynamic 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's possible, only thing that has me questioning is the frequency at which something I come up with ends up here. At the end of the day it's pretty neat one way or the other. Either myself and someone I am a fan of think similarly enough that we end up building the same decks all the time or brews I come up with are interesting enough that they end up on a big channel. I'm just glad one of my favorite and the best performing brew I've come up with hasn't spread giving me a nice secret weapon to bring to my LGS one day.

      Dixon Tiru so a cumulative upkeep creature would only sack it self if u don't have soleminity and if u chose not to pay? Thanks for the help btw I assumed it worked like that but u can never be sure.

      Cumulative upkeep requires you to put an age counter on the permanent at the beginning of your upkeep, and then pay the cost listed on the card for each age counter on it. (example: Cumulative upkeep {2}: pay {2} for each age counter on it or sacrifice it. First turn after you play it pay {2}, second turn after you play it pay {4} etc.) With solemnity in play age counters cannot be placed on the card so the card would essential force you to pay zero times the cost because the number of age counters would always be zero

    Seth, I love you but when you get upset that a burn deck draws burn it’s hard to feel sorry for you

    Anyone else triggered every time seth says solemnity. The n is silent! It's solemity!

      the n is only silent when it ends in mn, solemnity is the correct pronunciation.

    Seth, I love your content, but you seriously have to stop shoving so many colors into your decks. There's no reason not to build the deck as a UW control shell, but you play a 4-color pile, for a very dubious amount of value. If the core of your deck was the Solemnity, you don't need to force in black and green. If you don't play so many colors, you can ease on the manabase and not include all those shocklands, which will also increase your survivability.

      oren barzilai I agree with that but having Zur is really good. Like he is extra copies of both. The green isn’t really needed though, it just helps get the combo out on turn 3 if you draw well, but you should win there anyways

      oren barzilai he's already played a boring version with the same lock, he's spicing things up by showcasing the synergy of solemnity with cumulative upkeep creatures, if you want something boring go watch that other video

      Naw, I see it. Green for ramp because otherwise the combo is too slow, then you might as well as well splash Black for Zur (he does just about everything you need in this deck). It's not like he got stuck on colors very often.

    Don't buy from card kingdom they'll make you wait a month for your cards and then send them to the wrong address.

      I order from Card Kingdom all the time, specifically because they're always ridiculously fast with their shipping and I always get them in a couple days so I don't know what in the world you're talking about...
