I think in the wider audience of magic people will find magic aids problematic due to various reason (as someone who subscribes to big daddy) but yeah Nizzahon giving credit where credit is due
@@GigaBoost gods no, he's not discriminatory at all. He just makes a shit ton of sex jokes and prostitution jokes. Watch 1 of his videos and you'll get what I mean.
Makes me so happy to see you give a shoutout to Magic Aids for his 5c humans. I know and understand that he's not everyone's cup of tea, but I still think he deserves a mention for this deck. You're classy as always Nizzahon :)
I voted for this just to see if MagicAids would get a mention. So glad he did. Massively underappreciated dude. Great video and homework man. You rock!
@@alanyuan8565 That's fair. I grew up watching people get decapitated by the taliban on 4chan so a little inappropriate humor is like salt and pepper on a steak for me.
Pioneer currently has two humans builds, BW and GW, with GW being the most prevalent. There was a Bant build more than a year ago, but it didn't have any payoffs other than Lieutenant.
Before building my modern infect deck, my best deck was a monowhite human deck, based around tokens and cards like Imposing Sovereign, champion of the parish and pacifism
I remember making a Boros Humans/Angels deck, back when the second Innistrad block was out. It had maybe three angels in it. Lots of Human on Human payoffs, but also Human on Angel (and/or vice versa?). It was glorious.
I feel there should have been made a brief mention to The Walking Dead secret lair human, as the weekend he released Humans managed to completely sweep several legacy MTGO events running a full copy of him. I get that wizards wants to completely bury the most pay to win card in magics history, but that did happen.
Maybe it's the effect of the festive season, or the long work days and lack of sleep, but I think it's pretty cool that only when all the colours of Human start working together can they take on the highest power formats.
One of my friends exclusively plays humans in modern, and in his version of the deck he runs General Kudro. Kudro is exceptional, and neither of us can understand why most other lists don’t play him! Being a lord and a 3/3 on his own makes him an imposing threat, and the additional upside of graveyard hate and potential removal are not meaningless. Great video, Nizzahon!
@@velphidrow8317 so is mantis rider, and many of the creatures in the deck. With all due respect, that reason is bullocks. Recommend you try it out if you play the deck. It’s an exceptional finisher.
@@velphidrow8317 my friend plays a full set of Mantis rider, 3 copies of Reflector mage, 2 (maybe 3) imperial recruiter, and 2 Kudro. I do believe there is another but I don’t have his list memorized. Either way, it’s a great balance, and Kudro more or less acts like a better lieutenant when he comes down. Sure, the pump isn’t permanent, but unless your opponent has an answer, it’s backbreaking.
Humans is a blast to play in EDH. I use Kyler as the commander. He starts a little slow but turns into a steamroller after you get him out. There's lots of ways to make tons of humans, like sunset revelry or call the coppercoats. There's a lot more good humans than you'd think.
Always baffling to me how long it took for humans to be a creature type. Sure, they’re not as fantastical as goblins, elves, or merfolk, but there is still appeal in humans struggling against the world of monsters. Really glad Innistrad capitalized on that.
Mostly because anything that was a human was mostly given a class creature type instead. A human cleric would just be a cleric for example, whereas a merfolk cleric would be a merfolk.
Another day, another Nizzahon video… life is good. May I suggest in the decklists you include a total number for each card type? It’s interesting to see which decks run more or fewer lands or creatures (like UW Delver Humans vs GW Humans! Wow!) but it’s hard to tell at a glance and I’m bad at quick math 🧐 Great video!
I love these videos but I’m wondering if there’s a way you could add some kind of audio description of the cards you’re showing on screen? I can’t see very well so I can actually read the card descriptions which loses a lot of the content of the video for me 💔
I despise Human decks. Uncounterable threats due to Aether Vial and Cavern of Souls. 5-colour, but with no mana restrictions, since the deck is 36 creatures + 4 Aether vials, so the deck can run a total of 16 lands that come untapped, produce 5 colours, with practically no downside. That fucks around with one of the basic premises of the game - the more colours in your mana base, the more complicated and inconsistent the manabase. Cards like Ancient Ziggurat, Cavern of Souls and the other one from Ixalan just make 5-colour aggro decks way too consistent in terms of mana.
It's kind of a perfect storm of human creatures being so ubiquitous and a few kinda bad lands were printed. Cavern of Souls is indeed stupid but few decks in their right mind would play Ancient Ziggurat and the Ixaland land. It's just enough narrow lands that then reach critical mass and give you access to a massive card pool of powerful cards and tribal payoffs. Even with Vial, Blood Moon punishes 5c humans severely and is good against a lot of other decks!
@@SephonDK not all decks even run red, simply saying "Play Blood Moon lol" solves no issue. If Blood Moon was a 3 cmc colourless artifact sure, you got a point. But you can't suggest colour-locked solutions. I usually bring my Pithing Needles from the SB and name Aether Vial on turn 1 - that usually does the trick.
Because it is far too complicated to cover the format in a video like this. There aren't sanctioned tournaments and such. I would be left with just talking about some guy's human deck, not a deck that defined a format.
It's rare for someone to give magic aids props for their contribution to this archetype, good job
This! I honestly feel he deserves a lot more recognition for a lot of decks he builds.
In any case, great video as always, Nizzahon~
I think in the wider audience of magic people will find magic aids problematic due to various reason (as someone who subscribes to big daddy) but yeah Nizzahon giving credit where credit is due
My co favorite mtg channel with caleb Gannon. 2 basicly polar opposite creators. Lots of people can't handle the daddy, their loss.

Congrats on getting some well deserved recognition.
I was ready to blast nizza if he didn’t give daddy his fair shake.
I love you man, and this comment perfectly encapsulates you lmao
Love your channel and the decks you create. Glad you’d got credit here. Would love to see a aids+nizza colab
The only reason I voted for this history is because I want to see if Magic Aids will get credited, and he did!!! Props to Nizzahon...
Rejoice, bays and girls. Daddy has been name dropped multiple times. Just like when he was dropped on his birthday.
Same. Nice to see!

I can't stand the inflection he uses. The humor is one thing but I find his voice painful to listen too. Great deckbuilder tho.
@@drinkupnerds lol yeah he's got perpetual whiny bitch voice. At some point it switched from annoying to funny for me lol.
@@SpellingBeeWiner The fact that he uses a Liliana "----- doll" as his cover photo and needs to make a reference really shows what he's about.
Humans on Innistrad: "We fight against the undead."
Yuuji Okita: "Hey, that's great! I have a different idea, though."
The fact that you mentioned mtgAids shows just how deep you go into the history of the decks you cover. Great work.
7:11 YES! OUR SPECIAL BOY HAS BEEN NAME DROPED!
So awesome that you explained who really was behind 5 color humans. Non-Pros don’t get enough respect
5c Humans,true masterpiece.

Humans.Together.Strong.

Human decks start adopting Ragavan and the deck is renamed to "Primates".
you forgot the most important modern/legacy human in recent months, ragavan.
Glad to hear big boy props to our daddy Magic Aids!
I wonder for how long the Human Decks will be viable once the AI Decks come around.
I remember making a Boros Humans/Angels deck, back when the second Innistrad block was out.
It had maybe three angels in it.

Only just noticed your intro about the card kingdom referral changed slightly and it threw me for a loop 🤣
Really enjoying this series. Great compliment to the MTG top tens.
I feel there should have been made a brief mention to The Walking Dead secret lair human, as the weekend he released Humans managed to completely sweep several legacy MTGO events running a full copy of him.
I get that wizards wants to completely bury the most pay to win card in magics history, but that did happen.
Innistrad may seem the "monsters" plane, but it truly is the humans plane

Hey Nizz' was wondering if you would share your opinion on Alchemy, in particular due to the fact it impacts historic
Woot woot! Still golden 2024!
Dr. Nizzahon likes to keep his videos rated G, but here he has no choice but to mention...him.
I love these videos but I’m wondering if there’s a way you could add some kind of audio description of the cards you’re showing on screen? I can’t see very well so I can actually read the card descriptions which loses a lot of the content of the video for me 💔
Nice video. Would that mean we will eventually see the "Top 10 best/worst humans" videos?
Already did both.
Please cover commander as well
Did Nizzahon just talk about Magic Aids ?
Next one Reanimator please :)
The fact that you didn't include Eli's Modern Humans win at the mythic championship is sad.
F
Can you do pox decks?
Literally every format except Pauper lol
Humans are the best ;)
Hooman
Ponza History?
Ohh no...I rather use cardboard decks,human decks sounds quite spooky.
