I *was* gonna leave a critical comment, but then CGB double hard cast shark typhoons, and now I can't complain about anything ever again.
I know right, and it worked swimmingly
Only why he didn’t do it sooner
CGB: "I have 6 mana...let's sit back and see what the opponent does..."
Me: "NOOOOOOO SLAM THAT SHARK TYPHOON!!!"
I know right? 1 shark vs 5 shark against a deck with 0 removal~~~ isn’t that an easy choice?
Nine land and waiting for shark typhoon + rewind... against a board with nothing~
"Noooooooo you can't just not play typhoon"
"Haha pass turn go brrrrrrr"
for sure
@@shapeless6755 analyze that situation : p
I’ll give it to that first rakdos sacrifice player.
They had it rough (they are evil and deserve to have it rough).... but they played a pretty tight game, and seemed like they were a good player.
Naw this guy massively mis played coulda had shark typoon down for 4 turns.
Now spellslinging with Sprite Dragon and Saheeli, that's a fun deck. Have a deck that revolves around recurring creatures between 1-3 mana along with spells 1-3 mana to the point i either beat you down with a 20/20 sprite dragon or flood the board with Saheeli. It's fun, it's stupid but it works sometimes. Vadrok is amazing in bringing Saheeli/Narset or just keep the engine going too.
Thank you cgb for being a beacon of hope among a stupid aggro and boring meta. Love the content. Best content creator in the community
25:31 "stroke the jegantha"
Get matched against 5 straight rakkdos decks
Build anti cat oven deck
Get matched against temur rec
Shuffler is fine everyone
Shuffler is fine. Matchmaking is fine. Just keep buying gems and don't ask any questions
Fight with mono red 3 games in a row. Build anti red deck but has match with monogreen. Great macthmaking.
try dimir flash
@@God-ch8lq dimir flash isn't a dimir deck it's a deck without a wincon.
Building your own deck / improving on someone else's deck is lovely ( :
"And we're going to cry next turn" - me, every game
hi there :) Sorry for the length of my com but I have a few things to say ^^'You forgot and important card to gain life in Dimir "Arrival of the eternals gods" You deal 4 damage to a creature, you gain 4 life, you amass 4, ok for 5 manas there's a cost but as you show us, "ritual of soot, cry of the carnarium, event of extinction" are PERFECT cards against mono red aggro decks. And if you don't play Dimir, cards like "light of hope", "revitalize", "life goes on", "bond of flourishing" "Pulse of Murasa" are very effective to gain many life against mono red in order to set up your own board and then win the game because they have no cards in hand and you still have 15-20 life or more ;) Usually I like to play black-green decks, because of "Questing Beast", then I wrath the board with a "Cry" or "Ritual", and I use"life goes on" = + 8life which makes them often tilt and concede when Garruk or Nissa or Vivian or Liliana or Sorin (+4life) or "Ugin" comes the turn after that).
And I think you are right there are many aggro mono red decks....I love to see mono red aggro deck players concede once they have played all their cards in 2-3-4 turns and see that their strategy won't make them win ;) I respect more mono reds with flying-planeswalkers-enchantments. It's like "I crush you fast or I concede". So playing against mono red aggro deck means pass the few daily turns then take control and win.
Actually to my opinion the decks which are very effective in ranked are strategy-combo- control decks of course. You won't go high in the ladder with mono red, everyone is prepared against it now.
It would be interesting to look at the historic version of this deck - I'm fed up with goblins!
Witch's Vengeance could help you wipe their entire board and Hushbringer can shutdown Muxus' and Goblin Ringleader's ETB effect. And since the only removal they have is Gempalm Incinerator, Hushbringer might be hard to deal with especially if you wipe their board with Witch's Vengeance before casting it (the flying and lifelink on it is also a plus). Don't go crafting these cards if you don't already have them though, I don't know much about Historic so it might not work out even though it sounds pretty solid in my head lol. You'd also need some other single target removal, and since you'd be in Orzov, Revitalize definitely comes to mind for card draw and life gain. Settle the Wreckage could be a 1x or 2x as well. Worth exploring if goblins are really dominating Historic that much and you already have some of these cards.
1h of CGB torturing Mono Red and Rakdos? That's all I need for a great night-in.
“No more freaking oven.”
-CGB 2020 👍😂👏
He is right ( : cat ban
@@kingfuzzy2 hahahaha 👍 you're totally right!
: D oh yes.
Sick some dimir control with great endgame threats ( : quite lovely to see.
“This is not your yelp” bahahahah CGB THE GOAT!!!
This seems like the perfect opportunity to use Unmoored Ego (or the new black one that does the same but gives them a zombie). You can easily guess the key cards in the deck you're facing; Embercleave, Torbran, Cavalcade, Cat, Oven, Mayhem Devil, and just pluck them from the opponent's deck before they ever hit the field.
25:30
you saying you need to stroke the jegantha makes me feel kinda uncomfortable...
Why? That is the best part.
11:05 You didn't cast Shark Typhoon. Strict misplay CGB
Wondering how well this holds up with the new meta. Been trying to make a Dimir deck control but no luck.
Seeing no thought erasure triggers me however as you said this is specifically vs Aggro destruction AND you are Twice the MTG player and at least Three times the deck builder I am so I am excited to see how this goes.
Hey cgb ive been grinding azorious and i agree, rakdos and red, some mono white or green. Gonna give this a whirl, I gave up on dimir before ikoria, looking forward to picking it back up
I've gotten so used to binge watching CGB at 1.75x speed that when I play the game myself now it feels sooo sloww. Fun fact: At 1.5x CGB doesn't even sound sped up.
It’s almost unfair; that ability to read their minds and plan for their next play BEFORE THEY even play it! 👏👍
I feel like this is a deck I would love. I built a graveyard hate deck with Ashiok some mill and 1 scheming semetry just to get dirty. I was built almost primarily to crap on cat oven. Feel like most people these days utilize the graveyard. It was a mr burns kinda deck me.
I love this deck so much fun to play. Thanks CGB
Just want to say thanks, I been using your sublime deck and it's super great
CGB playing aggro decks - always gets mana flooded
CGB playing control - always gets mana screwed
Awww dang, i was hoping i would get to see my match against you from yesterday, i really wanted to know why you scooped so early into the game. Username zombie_drake21, you scooped after i cast wilderness rec #2. Either way, i just wanted to thank you for being such an inspiration to me, with your guidance i was finally able to make mythic with a slightly altered variant of your temur rec deck. Thank you for all the awesome content!
Dimir back in ravnica, with spybug and disinformation, was the reason I started playing magic. I saw a friend playing it and it looked so cool. So, I have a special kind of love for dimir.
I could not agree more. Trying to find a way to trip up the dominant decks is fun and motivating. Love the videos!!!
Exactly, solving the puzzle is why it's hard for me to say things need to be banned. Because most of the time there's already been an answer printed
CGB: 2:23 "Shut up in comments"
Everyone: what if I do just one...?
I have to share this story with you and no, it does not require a response. It is merely an example of how things go, quite ironically, sometimes. I watched this video and I also like to come up with creative ways to try to beat the current meta. I build a black and white creature control deck with a fair amount of flexibility and dove into 10 games of diamond ranked constructed. I lost 6 and won 4, but here is the interesting point. In those 10 games I did not match up with a mono-red or Rakdos sacrifice deck even once...not once. *sigh* It is hard to prove a point when no one you play is using the current hot meta.
That second match was a dumpsterfire of a game of magic. I honestly dont know how you put up with the shuffler and the meta, but hold in their CGB!
The 2-land hand curse continues to live on through your YT videos. All hail to The Shuffler, that is always fine and never broken!
@covertgoblue did you notice you can add a free Gyruda to your deck? It also helps fill the yard for cling
I love Dimir Control, I have a list I’ve been tweaking for a year now slightly changes with every set, Kefnet is my spice, it helped me get to Mythic this season
OMG The double shark typhoon. all video i was trying to telephatically will u to hardcast it. ty for it 38:49
CGB: Shut up
Me: *likes*
Hiya cgb, great content as per norm, you, Dev, and Merchant are just simply the best!
Missed Lethal 1:03:44
@Jonathan Gaither r/woosh
Or maybe r/woosh for me
I have understood your joke, and I approve
@@KyouUkaru lol
I literally just suggested Dimir Flash against Rakdos and Monored few hours ago on the last video 😀
I guess CGB had a similar thought. Just without the Flash part.
Btw: why no Disfigure? Nothing compares to the feeling of disfiguring a priest, a knight of the ebon legion (especially in reaction to a pump), a robber of the rich etc...
Yeah. Without disfigure your chances on the draw vs really good mono red hand is pretty slim.
" shut up, this is not your Yelp" -sage prophet CGB circa 2020
I am playing Dimir Control only... It is pretty different from your decklist... I am beating the majority of the "fancy decklists" ... I am going to compare the two lists and see if there's anything I want to change in mine... Maybe I'll put back in two Chemister's Insights . Gonna stick to Fae o Wishes ing up a Grafdigger's Cage or Tormond's Crypt however... one maindeck Karn and one sideboard Karn... equals Rakdos weeping
That mana screwed game was heartbreaking 😰
The shuffler is fine! 😒
As always thanks for the content CGBoy.
CGB - " THIS IS FOR FUN"
I like your intros and outros. they are kind of funny. like your sarcasm also.
1:02:03 "If people in mythic remembered that Teferi and Growth Spiral exist"
oh well...
If you play Dimir you should equip Cryptic command sleeve :)
Watching you beat rakdos is life
agree with the mono red. every deck in arena lately (like the new cards don’t exist ???).
Scry me a river. Love it. Been saying it for years. Ignore all haters and ego chasers. Keep up the jump.
The amount of times you could just play the shark typhoon and still have mana left, where i just screamed for you to do it... My god
Gotta love CGB beating up Rakdos
Could you shout out Brewer's Kitchen, He's eeasily one of the best content creators for MTG. Put's so much effort in the editing. His last video didn't get recommended by TH-cam. You might have seen his animations get upvoted on Reddit.
I like to play with the dimir flash cards.
Love this counter to the meta
Man, I always play against the Rakdos/mono red poo poo. I did just play some Historic with the "FNM All Access" event, and it was fun as hell. Standard feels like the same 4 decks all the time, but historic has heaps of fun jank & feels more like what I want Magic to be. Just curious - What're everyone's thoughts on Historic? When I spend wildcards for Historic & the game comes at me like "You sure man?" It feels like it's not a format that "wants?" to be promoted. Curious on thoughts and opinions...
The one thing I always run into is either Mana flood, or not enough
I LOVE DIMIR!!
The shuffler is fine...riiiiight
Thanks CGB
Thanks for the games
Double Shark 🦈🦈Hype
I relate to this vid sooooo much. Ive been consistently mana screwed or flooded since core 21 released its infuriating
Mythic arena looks like some kind of personal hell lmao.
But did you have fun playing a deck with one 6 mana creature and sharknados?
To be fair, if anyone would have fun playing a control deck with a single creature and sharknados, it would be CGB
CBG, welcome to my world of being mana-screwed. Most of the time I never get the chance to play, its so frustrating! It´s no land or all land for me... and I play your decks, they are well built. Arena hates me🤨
Any reason you’re not playing enter the gods-eternal?
Mono red and the prisoner of salty ropes
Dimir! Control! The best way to say "no, you can't" 👍
Ladies and gentlman.....I have come across a stunning revelation. Peasant tribal
I think the meta must change between the bottom of mythic and the upper 1000. I'm around 81% in mythic and I'm running into all kinds of decks. I just went against a shrine deck. It's almost like those at the top are playing the strongest to stay at the top while us at the bottom are having fun playing whatever.
Oh and Erebos' Intervention for Lifegain and/or graveyard removal btw
i clearly saw precognitive perception on 24:58 why it isn't listed in the deck?
What about Kaervek, the spiteful against mono red and rakdos
25:10 Don’t you just love the random shuffler?
I have been running 8 sweepers to try and deal with it lol (white black)
I see Dimir and i click. Always have to be prepared for black and blue control, no matter what deck you're playing.
I'd be curious to see you do this again but with Esper.
Hi CGB, i think your esper bolas deck you played the other day is better than this one v.s. mono red and rakdos. I been playing it with alot of success.
IT'SA ME, I'T'SA CGB!
I think being honest the shell was a really good idea if you had improved early card draw. It always seemed like you were 1 card draw away from wrecking face QUICKLY.
Chemisters is too slow against the decks that kill you?
love u cgb
I wish I would play against Rakdos or Mono Red that much! My deck is great in these match-ups but Temur Rec is all I get and I hate it so much!
People are sleeping on cling to dust in historic too!
Love dimir
Why not Massacre Wurm?
you should play some historic CGB, idk about anyone else but i'm permanently bored of standard constructed, except the occasional GP/PT/championship match
Why does nobody run Kaervek to counter the red and red/black sac decks. Kills almost all of their creatures.
I'm sure that Disdainful stroke doesn't make sense in this meta (no agent) because all the good cards with HIGH CMC are NON CREATURE spells.. so negate is more sensible.
Im playing mono black discard unstoppable
42:13 well at least the Rakdos player was a good sport about it
When you build half your deck to counter mono red and rakdos and still have a hard time winning. Being on the draw against that decks are just ridiculous. Magic is not about complex plays and nice interactions anymore, it is about 50/50 of being on the play, dropping 1-2 drops and win before turn 4
I'm confused. During the first game, how did the shark token die with just one ping from the Mayhem devil?
Mayhem devil came back from graveyard with deathtouch counter by Call of the Dead Dweller spell.
YASSS, let the hate flow
SharkEN ayy DOH!!
55:20
dont mind me
don't ever keep a 2 land hand in arena, the shuffler will make you weep for it.......science
How did mayhem devil kill a 5/5 flying shark token ?
Deathtouch counter (from the Call of the Death-Dweller)
Magical blue man grows tired of a cat in an oven and red things go brr
What happened to temur rec
