WaffleToaster mute works fine but I don’t auto mute in case I have to say hello or good game back. It’s worth the trade off. I just wish that people weren’t assholes in games but that’s asking too much
I really dislike the first opponent after they say “your go” after having to wait 2 seconds for you to think about your play to counter and following plays. People don’t realize the better you get at magic, you don’t get much faster, but actually a little slower since you get more deliberate and conscious of all the plays and counterplays
I disagree a little, its okay to think about your plays but anyone deserve a slow player (i am not talking about LegenVD, i am talking about the "rope" guys)
@@enioapolinario8538 Well there's players who take the time to think about plays and then there are the assholes who tab out and forget they are playing a game lol
Also, that "Men in Black" reference at the very end was clutch. I'll never play Thought Erasure again without humming the MIB theme. Well done on all accounts, LVD.
aww no thought distortion in the side that card wrecks control mirrors and honestly one of the most satisfying cards to resolve when you exile their whole hand
People complain about mono red a lot, but I would honestly prefer RDW to that Sultai deck you played against. Krasis and Uro are both just so good and so boring.
You could have a few cry of the carnarium in the side board, or even in main deck (maybe taking out 2 ritual or something), that handles cat very well and is decent against mono red
It's just ok against red after board, as it misses all the high impact cards. Experienced food players will also keep their cat in the graveyard during your turn, so it doesn't get swept up by Cry.
i'm having fun with a deck kinda/sorta like this, but leaning hard into opp-hand control and milling, w/ 4x Thought erasures, agonizing remorses, and fenlurkers, along with UC ashioks. Pretty fun, has a lot of trouble against enchantments like Oven. If i get some Loch Serpents, i might try something like this one :)
The "combo" decks in standard can usually win without their namesake card, so I don't think it's particularly useful. Even UW has multiple win conditions.
I'm gonna ask you again, if I want to buy a deck between the white weenies and this one, which one is the most competitive ? Thanks a lot :) very instructive video
As far as I know, there aren't any other cards that let you bounce any type of permanent for 2 mana. Tyrant's Scorn can only target creatures. Borrower is a very unique card.
@@damianvc31 The deck still has plenty of card manipulation to hit its land drops. It depends on how the UW sideboard is configured and what other cards they want to take out.
I can answer from an origins perspective. The word in Greek is Μοῦσαι, and like all greek nouns and adjectives, it is not gender-neutral. It is distinctively female. Which makes sense since, in mythology, the Muses were the nine daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne, the titan goddess of memory. They were considered minor patrons of the arts and science. Famously in the first sentence of the Odyssey, Homer asks Muses for inspiration to tell the story. The English word is gender-neutral though. It just means a source of inspiration.
@@khepri3266 nah it needs more agresive discard, counters and LAND WIPES ( nobody like his board been wiped and then his LANDS being whiped on topdeck mode)
Opponent with the salty "Your Go" when they knew they had no chance whatsoever against LVD and his infinite zen-like patience.
It bothers me more than it should when they spam "Your Go". It just seems lame as hell
@@harbs613 it bothers me that it bothers you that it bothers him

A poem, if you will:
What's this I see?
A best of 3?
I'm happy as can be!
Thanks LVD!

Wholesome

Amazing deck. So many answers. Guess it's the next one I'm spending my wildcards on. Thanks as always, legendary "ontoody next one" LegenVD.
You will be displeased :D

What nightmares do you remember?
Playing against control decks
my opponent having kiora bests the sea god in draft
An extremely scary one when I was young where a monstrous being killed someone, enslaved their soul, and used their skin for a piggy bank
Playing against Jace, the Mind Sculptor
My first dream i could remember was santa claus eating me
i pulled an ashiok today and i was literally thinking of putting together this deck a few hours ago. thank you
Yay a LegenVD BO3 vid, thank you! Been thinking of a deck like this and this looks great :)
Sooooo pleasant to watch and listen. You clearly deserve more subscribers for that amazing job.
let's see how this deck does!
Alright, we're on the draw...
@@RooZvonBooZ with a reasonable handS
People complain about mono red a lot, but I would honestly prefer RDW to that Sultai deck you played against. Krasis and Uro are both just so good and so boring.
And they have been top tier decks since Krasis released, at least we had a time were mono red wasnt top tier.
Mono Red in this meta is quite balanced and not boring to play with/against at all.

Nobody:
LVD: LOOKING FOR MAGICARPP??
Aahaaa you can tell that guy was getting irritated and pissed before he concede
Funny how you mention Uro as a target for Eat to Extinction. Elder giant on elder giant cannibalism!
That's hot.
Hey Legend, I would like your opinion on changes to this deck to include the new set (Ikoria) if any. Thank you!
Hello from Argentina! Would you mind to renew this deck with the ikoria expansion? thanks a lot!
The Thought Erasure MVC edit lol :)
No consideration for drown in the Loch? I like the versatility of that card. Maybe bad with escape mechanic.
Lol love the Thought Eraser MVC.
35:00 are we not gonna mention you shuffled away Thought Erasure then drew it anyway? Lol
8:10 When even the game feels like this attack is broken.
If you had to play this deck at BO1 , what changes would you make at the deck ?
I'm a simple man. I see Simic lose, I like the video.
Why no Narsets? Great prison against a lot of decks and would always hit with the digging
I mention it during the video.
@@LegenVD My bad, i just had the chance to watch the decktech. Thanks for the awesome content, best mtg channel on yt!
Nice Deck.
What is in your opinion better in standard atm:
Esper Control or Dimir Control?
That MIB thought erasure was awesome
Where does he get those wonderful cards?:^)
Great gaming
After testing this deck, how useful do you feel Ashiok is? He seems fun, but not sure if he's worth dumping my last remaining mythic wildcards.
Very nice games.
Just curious, how often does everyone play planeswalkers vs decks without planeswalkers?
Woot!
Thoughts on unmoored ego?
The "combo" decks in standard can usually win without their namesake card, so I don't think it's particularly useful. Even UW has multiple win conditions.

Neither deck has a proven track record in BO3 constructed. This decks has a little more adaptability.
Is it worth making an Ashiok deck after 3 years?
Which cards would you consider a budget alternative for Brazen borrower?
As far as I know, there aren't any other cards that let you bounce any type of permanent for 2 mana. Tyrant's Scorn can only target creatures. Borrower is a very unique card.
Could the planeswalker deck ashiok fit anywhere in here or does she just suck that bad?
Yeah, it's pretty bad.
is liliana good in this deck?
Bo3 is pretty classy!
Thanks Dad
hello have question how many mythic rare card the same name csn have on table
Rarity doesn't matter, but you can only control one Legendary card with the same name.
oh thx
I wanna see a deck with Devourer of Memory )
I feel like this video needed to feature a match against uw since that seems like the worst match up against one of the current tier 1 decks
No chance, I reached mythic rank with this deck but against uw control I've always lost.
I want to play this! :)
How does this deck beat dreamtrawler
You discard or counter it. Libation after board.
@@LegenVD the 0/4 wall form birth says hi
@@zappyice I doubt Birth is staying in after sideboard.
@@LegenVD Even though they are playing fewer lands because of it?

Looking for magickarps
If you run ashiok then you gotta run spark double. Nothing better than having 4 ashioks down.
"Illegal attack" lol
Very interesting
Ashiok top5 waifus 😍
In game 2 he died of boredom.
Why not take one of the 2 riders to kill the krasis you knew was coming?
Because finding a discard spell could have prevented the card draw, which seemed more important. Plenty of answers for Krasis once it's in play.
I always wanted to know if "muse" is a unisex adjective. If it isn't, maybe there is the answer of Ashiok's gender.
They're canonically genderless. Use the they pronoun. "It" is dehumanising.
I can answer from an origins perspective. The word in Greek is Μοῦσαι, and like all greek nouns and adjectives, it is not gender-neutral. It is distinctively female. Which makes sense since, in mythology, the Muses were the nine daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne, the titan goddess of memory. They were considered minor patrons of the arts and science. Famously in the first sentence of the Odyssey, Homer asks Muses for inspiration to tell the story. The English word is gender-neutral though. It just means a source of inspiration.
@@joshuachoo7555 I'm not sure if Ashiok even IS human
@@maxwellplaysvideogames .... yall are still using human conceptions of gender + treating them as a person, so... "dehumanising" still applies....
Ashiok sounds like Petyr Baelish
Isn't Ashiok a muse? Why does she sound like a poorly recorded shoddy Voldemort impression?
Ashiok is confirmed in canon as genderless and uses the "They" pronoun. I thought they were a guy for the longest time. :-P
Why does Blue Green always get the best cards though? Uro is busted
They had it rough before nissa and to an extent RNA
Nice! Bo3
LLLLLLLooooooking for magic cards?????
BO3 makes playing agaisnt RDW and control a lot more tolerable.
this deck is messed up.
this deck is everything i hate about control players.
Steven E nah, needs at least 10 more counter spells and 5 more board wipes
@@khepri3266 nah it needs more agresive discard, counters and LAND WIPES ( nobody like his board been wiped and then his LANDS being whiped on topdeck mode)
Franco Alessandro Marchetti I’ll do ya one better. Why destroy those precious lands when you can just steal them with agent of treachery.
you clearly arent good enough at magic if you cant play against control players well enough
@@wallbant Hating control players and being bad against them are two very different things
