Don’t mind attractions, it’s just the stickers that rub me the wrong way, because if the mechanic is used as intended, it requires you to possibly damage a card or a card sleeve that you own, and you have to keep buying stickers in order to use the cards affects. Overall it’s not the end of the world, it’s just a strange choice. I don’t anyone would have complained if unfinity was a silver bordered set.
The biggest problem with stickers is that they suck. It's like the design team knew how problematic they were so they did their best to make them absolutely unplayable.
Legacy having to deal with random commander stuff feels like Historic having to deal with random alchemy stuff. Sometimes it makes for some genuinely fun mechanics, other times I see what my opponent is playing and roll my eyes
@@joelhaggis5054 Oracle is actually one of the ones I quite like. Maybe not in constructed, but getting it alongside some blink spells in the arena cube drafts was a lot of fun
Yeah, though I think they're better as part of a preexisting deck instead of as a separate deck. Like, I'm building Moon Stompy with a playset of Rad Rascal because I think the Attractions add something to the deck, but I wouldn't build a deck whose main focus is Attractions because it relies too much on chance for me to fully commit to it as my main strategy.
The idea is to build them like Comet, Stellar Pup, where even though the effects (and when you get them) are random, they're all generic "good stuff value" effects.
I remember playing an attraction commander deck and taking 16 turns in a row, didn't win bc this was a prototype deck and I just decided to add extra turn spells bc why not. so all I could do was hit people with 2 commander damage every turn
Shouldn't every deck have an attraction deck now? If it's optimal to use one in reanimator or this deck, if I don't have an attraction deck I'm giving my opponent free info to help them mulligan game 1.
Technically, yes. However, if this "tech" ever becomes popular enough then you're giving your opponent info that you're playing either Attractions, Death's Shadow, or Reanimator, so it's companions all over again.
Outside of the goofy Attractions stuff, the Kaito, Dancing Shadow here is interesting. That card has a neat design, but I haven't seen anyone really try to make it work in any format before because it's such a weird effect and 4 mana is a lot for what it does.
@@AmmiO2 For sure, but I was addressing your point about diversifying the numbers. You should choose the attractions whose numbers overlap with Storybook Ride.
I really thought this was an April Fools video. At the end...I'm still ever so slightly on the fence if this is real or if you're just trying to get ahead of the real April Fools date. :p
It's a real deck, though the vast VAST majority of eternal formats is played on magic online, which doesn't have and may never get attractions due to wizards not really caring about mtgo.
I don't understand why attraction cards are mostly black. You'd expect an rng-based mechanic that does stuff with artifacts to be red, but red has the least attraction cards somehow.
Actually your allowed minimum 10 attractions you can have as many as you want asong as there are ten because you can't retrieve them when they go to junk uard
Yes, but you don't want to run more than 10 because you want to hit only the best ones. Realistically, you're almost never going to play a game that goes so long that you run out.
I still don't understand the hostility against Un-mechanics in Legacy. Like, some of the theming can be cringe (See: The Most Dangerous Gamer), but aside from that, it still plays like magic. It's not like Phone a Friend or anything particularly wacky has been added to the format. As you've said, they're basically randomized sagas, and nobody complains that they MUST play Kumano Faces Kakkazan in Red Aggro lists. If the theming is just so utterly cringe that you can't possibly bear the thought of an amusement park in the same game where, as the eternal phrase goes, 15 flying squirrels can take down Cthulhu, maybe Magic isn't the game for you and you should go back to playing 40k.
Because they are joke mechanics from a joke set. If you genuinely think that the "hilarious" space adventure amusement park belongs in the same place as the rest of magic I question your mental age
Why haven't you done Auras (like the deck that came 2nd in the PT) in Pioneer yet?? It's a tier 1 or 1.5 deck in pioneer and you just did mill which is not.
I big part of what makes the creatures good is the ability to reuse them via blink/reanimate/bounce/etc. I _would_ say it's the next best option though.
Hey you should really start mentioning your channel name at the start of videos. Because we don’t hear it out loud it doesn’t stick in peoples heads, so it’s harder for people to verbally share your content with friends and weakens your brand. Give it a try, you might find it does wonders :)
@@jeremy3169 it's not gonna be anywhere near as bad as Initiative, considering that the Attractions can be interacted with while in play. Plus, Delver somehow gets to survive pretty much untouched no matter how degenerate it is, so it really depends on how many members of the B&R people like them.
🦀🦀🦀 Attractions are GONE 🦀🦀🦀
i was totally lost in this video... dunno wth are these attractions mechanism. if i want a headache, i will read about politics
I love legacy. It has the perfect combination of “super srs skill testing gameplay” and “lol this gimmick mechanic is good now”

@@joelhaggis5054 The problem is Attraction are banned in pauper and stickers are the only option
____ Goblin is the only playable Stickers card.
The only Legacy deck ill ever consider playing
Finally, a deck I can get into for legacy
So legacy finally Made unfinity decks, I was waiting for this to happen
I've been trying to figure out how to make Clown car into a deck, just because I love the concept.
Legacy having to deal with random commander stuff feels like Historic having to deal with random alchemy stuff. Sometimes it makes for some genuinely fun mechanics, other times I see what my opponent is playing and roll my eyes
Oh certainly
Oracle of the Alpha makes historic feel like vintage.
Not my opponent casting Oracle of the Alpha and top decking one of the cards
@@joelhaggis5054 Oracle is actually one of the ones I quite like. Maybe not in constructed, but getting it alongside some blink spells in the arena cube drafts was a lot of fun
Honestly.... This seems like fun. I approve of them being legacy legal.

As a commander player i was wondering why some of the attraction card jumped in price, now i know :)
I think the truest test of whether I've "made it" is if my videos can move prices, aka the "Saffron Olive" effect. Alas, I'm not there yet.
I remember playing an attraction commander deck and taking 16 turns in a row, didn't win bc this was a prototype deck and I just decided to add extra turn spells bc why not. so all I could do was hit people with 2 commander damage every turn
Lmao

Scummy opponents might try to get you on wasting time in the match, since both players get to randomize the Attraction deck.
oh god its snow lands all over again
First snow lands, now attractions
Technically, yes. However, if this "tech" ever becomes popular enough then you're giving your opponent info that you're playing either Attractions, Death's Shadow, or Reanimator, so it's companions all over again.
I usually play a 4C (no green) with Kaito, deadbeat, strix, sheoldred, comet and some discard/creature control/draw-fix
In Japan, vintage Ragavan decks play Attraction just in case it steals an attraction card from the opponent.
In Japan someone plays Vintage in paper? Isn't Japanese card games are more popular there so magic isn't that popular?
@@hiphur4524 It is, but the ones that do are very dedicated.
Outside of the goofy Attractions stuff, the Kaito, Dancing Shadow here is interesting. That card has a neat design, but I haven't seen anyone really try to make it work in any format before because it's such a weird effect and 4 mana is a lot for what it does.
The card is busted
thank you so much for doing this.
Neat! Thanks for the explanation!
Finally. The only good legacy deck
Now I want to cast The Most Dangerous Gamer
So… attractions are the new snow basics?
Always run them even if you don’t need to to hide information?
Rest in Peace
The Initiative and Attractions seem to share the quality of being completely free value. Every upkeep, you get a benefit for 0 mana.
Attractions can be interacted with, they are just 0 mana artifacts
The difference is one is much easier to interact with
Isn't it optimal to have as many attractions as possible match the numbers on Storybook Ride to mazimize the number of cards exiled?
Some attractions are mediocre. You want to maximize the chances of hitting only the good ones.
@@AmmiO2 For sure, but I was addressing your point about diversifying the numbers. You should choose the attractions whose numbers overlap with Storybook Ride.
I can't believe that a GAMER creature is legacy playable
Can you make a video on pioneer dredgeless dredge in the future?
What is that even?
WHY DID ATTRACTIONS HAVE TO DIE FOR STICKERS SINS, NOW HOW WILL MY SULTAI BLINK VALUE RECOVER
there are 2 kinds of magic players:
"lol, gimmick shit"
"ugh, gimmick shit play real magic"
I really thought this was an April Fools video. At the end...I'm still ever so slightly on the fence if this is real or if you're just trying to get ahead of the real April Fools date. :p

Wins sometimes in San Diego
Since theyre artifacts karn should be able to fetch them imo
I don't understand why attraction cards are mostly black. You'd expect an rng-based mechanic that does stuff with artifacts to be red, but red has the least attraction cards somehow.
I'm not surprised people are playing attractions in legacy. I'm surprised people are playing attractions at all.
Actually your allowed minimum 10 attractions you can have as many as you want asong as there are ten because you can't retrieve them when they go to junk uard

If anyone gets super serious about Magic, just remind them that they're playing a children's card game and watch their face turn red.
I love Unfinity, but I don't love how it's optimal for everyone to have a sticker deck and attraction deck.
Because they are joke mechanics from a joke set. If you genuinely think that the "hilarious" space adventure amusement park belongs in the same place as the rest of magic I question your mental age
@@AmmiO2 Sure, who would want to take a game they enjoy **seriously**? Just swallow whatever crap WotC pushes out and buy more products.
@Flare_Blitz yeah pretty much this. Like how playing snow covered basic lands is usually correct, now chose from the 4 different arts...
wow i'l be so pissed if i loose to this in legacy lmao.
Deck so strong they had to ban every core card
this is so sad, can we roll for attractions
I wish attractions weren't "banned" in Pauper
If only they printed 2 more common ones, then we'd have exactly 10 Pauper legal ones.
Why haven't you done Auras (like the deck that came 2nd in the PT) in Pioneer yet?? It's a tier 1 or 1.5 deck in pioneer and you just did mill which is not.
Was it ever stated that he's doing these in order of success/meta share?
It's coming.
I would love to play this game if I didn't have to sell a kidney for it ...
There are "budget" options, though you may not like them.
People don't like Command Performance??
I big part of what makes the creatures good is the ability to reuse them via blink/reanimate/bounce/etc. I _would_ say it's the next best option though.
needs gameplay to make sense... idk
So you inlcuded this but there is no video about Pox? I feel offended😡
I gotta see this nonsense in action. Come on mtgo

Gotcha. I'll see you at the next one for my free bye.
@@AmmiO2 Based
nice video, but "mah-na" drives me mad
Every day we stray further from God's light...
Thanks I hate it
As if I needed another reason to never buy in to Legacy.
Magic has become a parody of itself
annnddd its getting banned soon
Do show some proof, if you actually have any.
@@nicholasfarrell5981 how can you proof that? like initiative, when its to opressive, it will be banned
Its not online yet, wizards won't know

I really dislike that this is legal
Yikes... really not happy about this, even if it works.
so the play is to give someone an attraction creator and then call a judge on illegal deck or whatever when they cant create the attraction
Having an attraction deck is optional, so this doesnt work.
@@megapussi boo lol
I knew those unfinity collector boosters were worth it 🙏
I can't believe that a GAMER creature is legacy playable
