This set really offers a shockingly well. Incredible card fantasy, lots of variety, classic and fun mechanics, AND actually playable cards. Fantastic set. Im really impressed.
Finally- a new Top 50 cards video! I've been using the "Top 50 Brother's War cards" to fall asleep to basically every few day since it first dropped.
Does anyone else wake up to mtg goldfish playing? Like, everytime? He is on every time I wake up with TH-cam still playing.
That's some dedication. Love it!
I think there’s actually less Dino centric cards than either previous Ixalan set. I may have made a spreadsheet. You really feel it in Dinos absence from white and white color pairs.
That is beyond fucking weird
Sounds like a sad life TBH
You sang "Jadelight repair, Jadelight replace" and I scream-laughed. (I'm in Kentucky and we do get those commercials.)
You really raised your game in this vid, Dev. Bravo!
same hahaha
I've gotten those commercials in Missouri before too
i liked "how many treasure tokens is that in fluid ounces? a galleon!"
Im from ohio and we get inundated with safelite ads
@@AutkastKainwhere in MO? In Springfield 🤔
Thanks for the video Dev.
This'll be the first set I bought a pack bundle for since New Cappena, and I'm really excited for the new mechanics.
I love that I never know if its going to be a set review or a stand-up comedy show... or both. Love your stuff buddy.
Hey man thank you for the content. I had a 5 hr drive and watched the full review 3hrs+. Video made the drive much better. Thank you again.
You're a master orator my dude
22:10 - The Ancient One also seems decent with Ob Nixilis, the Adversary.
Using the Casualty option to immediately ultimate the copy isn't too bad. Turn 3, draw 7 isn't something to completely scoff at.
Thanks for the work Dev. Much love.
I took a hella long break. I remember a video from back in the day where you were having a bad time. Now I'm back and you're doing good, so that's dope. I subbed. You might be the best magic channel ever. More bars in the intro please.
Very excited for this set and I've been waiting for this video all month!!!!
So much Dev injected directly into my brain. ❤
Great Job ! Love your videos ! Looking forward to some new deck tech on the New set ..
Excellent list. I too am very excited to use Barty in standard.
Loving your card selection, great insight! 👍🃏
That was the fastest Top50 list you have created Master Sbmtg... great content!
Great review!
Yes, Tireless Splasher is the correct name for this card, Dev. Good job, bro!
I prefer the less concise videos but 50 cards in under 50 mins is an achievement. Solid content module.
Love ya Dev! Bartolomé looks good to me, might try orzhov for first time long time.
Great humor, great pacing. Love your stuff in general but this is a cut above!
Millennium Calendar is pretty goofy with All Will Be One too, LVD did a mono-red build with it. Maybe Skullspore Nexus goes in the Fight Rigging deck? You get it out cheap, and if your overstatted meatheads die, they upgrade into equally big creatures but without the drawbacks.
Almost feels like cheating to play the love of my life with All Will Be One, but I might attempt to make a deck with it anyways.. love all the new stuff! :D
Dev don't miss. Great video as alway. Ever thought about making a cameo account?
Bartolomé would make an interesting voltron/aristocrat commander.
Basically build your board with the typical voltron equipment, a bunch of tokens, and at least one haste enabler.
Slam Barty, suit up, swing in, and sac tokens until P=21.
Hes cheap enough that even if a player removes him, rinse repeat
Top 50 is too damn many! Do top 20 commander, top 20 explorer, top 20 standard, etc. Mad respect for putting the uncommon sac outlet at #1!
Thank you Dev! I use your top cards lists to make my purchases each set. I am a weirdo that still plays cardboard.
I have seen that commercial many, many times. You are not alone.
Looks like a fun set! Thinks for the review
I came for The Mycotyrant puns, stayed for the whole video & was not disappointed. Thanks Dev.
The humour in this is great, kept it very entertaining
We have safelite in IN and I knew exactly what you were talking about.
We do indeed have Safelight in Maryland, excellent use of the jingle
Honestly, a reprint of cavern is NOT boring to me. Super stoked to have this card in standard again.
Looking forward to seeing your aristocrats list!
Wall of the forgotten is actually dope. The third mode alone is a playable card as the remaining two go in the yard.
I couldn’t remember your name but I remember your jingles and it has brought me here, greetings dev mtg. (ChatGPT AI Comment)
My number one pick is Dev. In my heart.
I really enjoy your content
When Carrion Feeder and Acrbound Ravager love each other very much...
Powrdragon's take was very hot
Twists and Turns is a massive upgrade for the Merfolk precon.
Chicken sometimes looks like a platinum fox wondering around in your house 🎉
"Tireless Mackerel" had me ROLLING
Bitter-flotsom is an incredible wordplay. thank you.
Bonehoard Dracosaur is missing one keyword that it absolutely needs: Haste.
Yes we have Safelite commercials and I never expected to hear that jingle in an MTG video! 😂
Dev, we have Safelite here in the midwest also. Totally get it. Lol. 😄
perfect timing Dev ! my sealed starts in 22 minutes
I don't know if this list aimed at Constructed will help your Limited games...
@@GreenMonkeySam clearly you missed the point
Deeproot Pilgrimage seems like it really wants you to be taking turns off to make a bunch of tokens that you ACTUALLY attack with the next turn. Super easy to do that with the card, at least, any vehicle with Crew 1 essentially turns any nontoken Merfolk into a Bitterblossom.
Vehicles with Merfolk seems kinda good actually. Also there are a few unblockable Merfolk to chip in with to draw removal and keep up pressure.
With Brass' Tunnel Grinder you can just do a play pattern of
Turn You Play Tunnel Grinder - Wheel your hand, hopefully hit another tunnel grinder
Next Turn - Play second tunnel grinder you got from wheeling, send the new one to the graveyard (hitting descend), wheel your hand again.
Next Turn - Play third tunnel grinder you got from wheeling, send the new one to the graveyard (hitting descend), profit
Breeches is far better than no 48... anyways, thanks for compiling your top 50, Dev!
Nice I pulled bartolome del presidio today in my 2nd pack lol
You are a living shrine to No Dead Air Time. Bravo.
Tarrian's Journal is insane, especially in pioneer. In a midrange mirror I can see games ending with whoever has this card as the winner.
Have you seen the Millenium Calendar with All Will Be One? Oh yeah, combo deck. Boom.
Souls of the Lost is obscene with the BG 3-cost planeswalker FYI. That BGU mill deck based around him is going to shake up standard from what I saw of it.
never been more excited for standard since 2017, but Im stuck between dinos and merfolk
haha got the Bartolomé at number 1 live the dream my friend! lets go!
Yes dev we have safe light in ontario but it's speedy glass here look it up the jingle is the same
the ancient one as commander and turn 3 altar of the wretched: draw 8, mill 8, seems good to me
I live in Central Illinois and I know about the Safelight commercials.
I was lucky enough to play with Anim Pakal in both of my prereleases, and she's really more like a 3/4 than a 1/2, even with no synergy. Play her, attack with your 2-drop, she gets +1/+1, attack next turn, she gets another +1/+1. That's while putting three 1/1's on the board as well. The card is probably too fragile for constructed, but it does demand an answer and leaves behind (*artifact creature*) tokens if answered at sorcery speed. The card is probably only okay to have in the format at all because the answers are so good -- she runs away with the game VERY quickly if unanswered, at only 3 mana, while often putting value on board tapped and swinging on the turn she comes down.
I been playing it in my agro deck, getting close to diamond, love it!
Magic is so heartbreaking right now. This set looks incredible, but honestly it would be so much better if there was a rotation. Such a shame these cards will never have the chance to shine
From what I saw in early access event, I think this will not be accurate. There were all new deck archetypes that seemed better than the top tier current meta. BGU self mill, mizzium calendar all will be one combo, Boros aggro. All three seemed very solid.
@@michaedove3562 early access is always going to showcase the new cards. Give it a month and it'll just be mono red and black :/
Man this set looks so good. I dont evem care about the rankings, i just like hearing you talk about cards lol
I had no intention to really get into this set but got two packs just to kinda check it out and I thought "holy shit, there's a good amount just from these packs that I can use"
Bitter flotsam got me on this one lmao
Amalia combo will be a Pioneer deck... I think the 20/20 swinging after a coco will happen often.
New favorite magic channels favorite magic channel episode
FYI in the UK, it is _Autoglass repair Autoglass replace_
Bonehoard dracosaur is my fave win condition with my Poetic dino/artifact deck ^~^
Dev's convoluted way of showing his BW Aristocats deck.
I have safe light in Seattle!
Deeproot Pilgrimage goes ABSOLUTELY HAM with Kumena.
Also Opposition.
Question about Tunnel-Grinder:
If I cast on instant on their end step, does it essentially give whatever it discovers flash?
Tecutlan only cares about permanent spells, but yes. In any situation where you discover at instant speed, you can ignore timing restrictions to cast the card you discovered because the casting is part of the resolution of the ability.
From Louisiana, yes we have safelite commercials! Where is the throne of the dread pirate?
Safelite operates in all 50 States, and are owned by Belron, who are in turn owned by the D'Ieteren group.
Millennium calendar & All will be one is a fun insta win XD
I would just put Brass's Tunnel-Grinder in a proliferate shell. Maybe artifact centric? The discover X would just be gravy every turn.
JADELIGHT REPARE JADELIGHT REPLACE!! hahahaha dev I love you
You look alot like my old best friend from Wauconda Illinois. And we get the commercials all the time 😂. I freaking love mtg but unfortunately I can't bring myself to support such a horrible run company. Sorcery Contested Realm is old mtg and I'm all in. Good video
I do get safelite ads here in Missouri
My favorite card from the set is kaslem's stonetree. Yes the vanilla creature.
A little upset it didn't make the list. But I get it. I know it's not really a good card.
Yes Safelite is in my region
Funny, I actually work for Safelite lol. And, I’m on the west coast. Safelite is EVERYWHERE my guy lol.
Thousand moons smithy won me a match the fact that it can get pulled from sacrificing a cave for discover 4 I flopped it on the table and INSTANTLY had a blocker that could deal with anything my opponent had
Gotta say a lof of your jokes dont land for me (in the way that I dont quite laugh or giggle, I still find them funny), but the randomness and comedic timing on the Jadelight stuff made me lol haha (probably because it was shorter than usual)
My only disappointment is no coffee break. Ps: did you see the interaction of the blue God with adventures? Went straight to my #1 because of it 😅
I recently walked past a Safelight repair guy doing his job!
You my spirit animal dev
Okay so I haven't fully thought this one put but hear me out.... vintage
Turn 1
Mountain
Black lotus
Souls of the lost
Dragonsrage Channeler
Dark Ritual
Wheel of Fortune/timetwister
Mox Ruby/Lotus Petal/Mox Sapphire
> Play mountain
> Then dragonsrage channeler
> Then lotus (trigger channeler descent +1)
> Sac Lotus for 3 blk (+2 descent)
> Play Souls of the Lost (DRC trigger now +3 desc potentially)
> Play Dark Ritual (drc +4 desc)
> Play lotus petal/ mox ruby or sapphire (drc +5 desc)
> sac lotus petal for 1 red/blue (+6 desc)
> Play wheel of fortune / time twister (drc trigger +7 desc)
You now have roughly 7 or so cards in your graveyard, dragonsrage channeler already on delirium, a Souls of lost with potentially +7 descent, 7 cards in hand, 20 life, and 1 black mana left to play into those 7 cards with before the end of turn 1. This isn't even a rickety combo. It's not a huge setback to have a spell countered.
I'm sure it won't be a new competitive deck but it's pretty lol
Hey brother by a different mother, your jokes are on point today
confirming bitterflotsam is good
commenting for the hard work
I laughed at the galleon joke😅
Does that mean you love the soothing sounds of Devs vids and that helps you sleep? I'm confused why anyone would listen to descriptions of old cards on repeat. Please explain. Is Joke?
This set seems to get more love than mkm gets lately
OMG that card is better than Nantuko husk! jeez
I played against several pre-release decks this weekend, and one thing I found was that Dracosaur has been "enter the battlefield" crept out of existence. Every time I would see someone play him, or would play him myself, the other side of the table would basically immediately remove it. Yes it runs away with the game if you can't remove it, but because it has no effect when it enters the battlefield, removal is too strong against it
Blame FIRE design. Removal became way too efficient over time to the point that creatures don't stick for longer than a turn. This meant creatures all had to have enter the battlefield effects to be worth playing. This would have caused 1 for 1 removal to become unviable and for most gameplay to become ETB creatures being thrown at each other, which in turn meant that creatures had to have both up front value in the form of ETBs *and* continuous value in the form of on board effects so it was still necessary to remove them. There's a reason that the best deck in modern is a bunch of ETB creatures and all of the actual spells are ways of recurring or cheating those creatures.
@@tinfoilslacks3750 wdym fire design?
This entire comment makes some degree of sense, but then you remember Sheoldred is the best creature in standard and has no ETB trigger
@@devinrandall4538 True dat. Don't disagree with that statement at all.
Deep root pilgrimage could’ve just made Kumena infinite if not for that pesky nontoken clause :/ also I feel like I see that commercial more often than I should. “Jade light repair” better not have a copyright on it by the time I build my kumena deck…..
Bart won't replace Teysa, but he's deffinitly going in...
ok hear me out abuelo's awakening with the thunderhulk (i forget the rest of the name)
You rock 🎉
Amalia went in my pioneer orzhov lifegain deck sooooooo fast
