Love seeing your consistant posts on MTG:O gameplay. Your hands-down the best creator who does MTG since you keep away from doing clickbait in favor of interesting and honest thumbnails and content.
Thanks, I appreciate those sentiments. I occassionally get a comment that my stuff is clickbait, but I try to be honest but interesting with how I package my vids. Its nice when someone notices:)

absolutely love your content never got into modern myself, last time i tried to get into it was when i decided to slowly buy my way into a deck on august of 2019 and started with getting a playset of lootings, and then well so even as someone who has never touched the format your vids are really enjoyable
Thanks 😊🙏🏼 I stopped playing Modern for years after Twin got banned…I just couldn’t find a deck I liked. I moved across the country in 2021, and I started playing again as a way to meet people and be social - Modern was by far the most popular format in my new city. I got hooked, and haven’t stopped since 🙃
@@Nicc11221 I'm guaranteed to pronounce at least 1 card wrong every single video. That's my promise. I always dread playing against Merfolk, because I know I'm going to mispronounce Svyelun. Like c'mon, that name isn't fair.
from my experience playing the deck in pioneer it's pretty much always right to hold back the loop until amalia untaps so that you can get maximum value from the wipe without giving your opponent the chance to put out a creature, since amalia doesn't have any evasion on her.
Always activate vial. Putting the creature into play is optional, you can activate to no effect, but any opponent has to treat every activation as though you're going to do something, which can bait plays or misplays they wouldnt have otherwise performed. Otherwise, love it.
The funny counterplay is buffing Amalia to skip the 20 power mark. Because Amalia only wipes on exactly 20, this will create a infinite loop without an exit condition. Because your actions have to advance the game state you will be forced to mill the explored cards instead of keeping them on top of your library causing you to mill your complete deck (and drawing all lands).
@@Control4Daze Example: You combo. You reach 17 Power with Amalia. As a reaction on the next trigger your opponent casts Giant Growth on Amalia and pushed her to 20 power. Now when Amalia resolves she has 21 power and does not wipe the board. You would have to gain life 3 times in reaction to the GG to counter this or put a land on top somehow. If the opponents expects some top deck manipulation that would put a land on top of your library, he could wait for 18/19 power.
Yawgmoth evolution stopped it pretty hard though. Gg on your tournament win btw. Pilot + deck tier = outcome. I really don’t think yawgmoth is tier 1 but it sure took out a lot of tier 1 decks.
@@Control4Daze sweet baby Jesus that’s insane. Maybe since fury is gone and less people are playing as many exiles effects it got better but I remember it not doing too well and maybe you’re doing well but have you seen anyone else putting up your numbers? Maybe it’s the pilot and not the deck is all I’m saying.
@@kevinelston404 Sweet Baby Jesus! hahah I'm not sure if anyone else is putting up a 96% wr over 50 matches, but I do know others are doing well. It's a very good deck!
Anything Amalia makes me immediately tune out. Wizards is really pushing to kick us out of modern and now pioneer with nowhere to go. You’re basically dancing with the corpse of our game there. Thanks for rubbing it in.

I trust your experience…I’m just firing from the hip, def don’t have enough reps with it to know all of the intricacies.
This is nasty! Great run
Thank you my friend!

Thanks for watching!!! 🙏🏼
Love to see some triple digit life totals in modern, 😂
And with minimal clicking! Even better! 🙌🏼

Yea, when you’re making content, activating vial every end step isn’t great for business, despite it being correct to do. Good point though 🙌🏼

@@MegaJoka100 oh okay, yes...you would need pump spells. I thought you meant a way to do so as the deck is currently built.
@@Control4Daze no that's what your opponent does against you.
@@MegaJoka100 oh, yea, not too much of a concern...not too many pump spells in Modern.
Auriok Champion is my favorite card. I caller her La Jefa in my BW Tokens deck.
Hahaha I love it! Auriok is unappreciated in this current day and age!
really want to try this at fnm now...
Me too!!!
I'm just a fan of anything soul sisters if we're being honest
I should probably go all in on a soul sisters deck for a vid... 🤔
Hilarious port from pioneer
It actually works and is very powerful - I was surprised as well!

Any thoughts on pauper?
I have none…I’ve never played the format! 😳
Rain fo gore for lifegain
That would be very problematic lol
Very cool deck but……white board cards??!?!?!

They FELT horrible! 😂
Really cool deck on the upside!

Not very interesting deck 🤷♀️
Sorry you feel that way 😕 I thought it was sweet 🍬
