    The board state at the end of game 1 at 26:50 makes for a really interesting Magic puzzle. I think I figured out a series of plays that has a good chance of winning.
    1: Put Forest and Ancestral back on top of your deck from the Sylvan trigger.
    2: Tap all mana sources and add 17 mana to your pool.
    3: Channel the Otawara bouncing Sylvan back to hand (13 mana, 1 card in gy).
    4: Activate Dack targeting yourself, drawing two cards and discarding Sylvan + Timetwister (3 cards in gy, 4 cards in deck).
    5: Cast Breach (11 mana, 1 storm).
    6: Cast Channel (9 mana, 2 storm, 4 cards in gy).
    7: Play two forests from hand. Fastbond will trigger putting lethal damage on the stack (11 mana).
    8: Cast Brain Freeze targeting your opponent to mill them for 9 (9 mana, 3 storm).
    -- If you mill an Eldrazi with a copy of Brain Freeze. --
    9: Cast Arcane Denial in response to the Eldrazi trigger targeting the original Brain Freeze (7 mana, 4 storm, 6 cards in gy).
    10: Cast Brain Freeze with Breach. Target your opponent with the first two copies, and then target yourself with the next two (5 mana, 5 storm, 2 cards in gy).
    11: Mill the remaining 4 cards in your deck, then mill your opponent with three copies of Brain Freeze (6 cards in gy).
    -- If you mill the remaining Eldrazi with a copy of Brain Freeze. --
    12: Cast Arcane Denial with Breach, targeting Brain Freeze (3 mana, 6 storm, 4 cards in gy).
    13: Cast Brain Freeze with Breach, targeting your opponent to mill them for 21 (1 mana, 7 storm, only Brain Freeze left in gy).
    - At this point you have milled your opponent for at least 3+3+21 = 27 cards.
    14: Cast Ancestral Recall from hand, targeting your opponent (0 mana, 8 storm, 1 point of lethal damage on the stack, 0 opponents left alive).
    -- If you mill one Eldrazi with the first Brain Freeze, but don't mill the final Eldrazi with the next three copies (7 cards in gy). --
    12: Cast Brain Freeze with Breach targeting your opponent to mill them for 18 (3 mana, 3 cards in gy).
    13: In response to milling the final Eldrazi, cast Ancestral from hand (2 mana, 4 cards in gy).
    14: Cast Ancestral with Breach. If the fianl Eldrazi was in the bottom 8 cards, you win the game!
    -- If you mill 9 cards with the first Brain Freeze without milling an Eldrazi (9 mana, 3 storm, 5 cards in gy, 20 cards in opponent's deck). --
    9: Cast Brain Freeze with Breach. Target your opponent with the first two copies and yourself with the final one (7 mana, 4 storm, 1 card in gy).
    10: Mill 3 cards from your deck, then mill your opponent with three copies of Brain Freeze (4 cards in gy).
    -- If you mill one of the two Eldrazi in your opponent's deck. --
    11: Cast Arcane Denial from hand targeting Brain Freeze (5 mana, 5 storm, 6 cards in gy).
    12: Cast Brain Freeze with Breach. Target your opponent with the first 4 copies, and yourself with the final one (3 mana, 2 cards in gy).
    13: Mill the final card in your deck, then mill your opponent with 5 copies of Brain Freeze (3 cards in gy).
    14: In response to milling the final Eldrazi, cast Ancestral from hand (2 mana, 4 cards in gy).
    15: Cast Ancestral with Breach. If the fianl Eldrazi was in the bottom 8 cards, you win the game!
    I didn't list out every possible timing on milling the Eldrazi, but the other cases aren't too different. I think you can guarantee a win if there is an Eldrazi in the bottom 8 cards, or both Eldrazi are in the top 12 - 18 cards (depending on when the first Eldrazi gets milled).

    Not sure if you saw it and weren't interested, but at 23:55, because of the stacking of Jar and Breach, you could have Ancestraled yourself again once the cards from the Jar were in your graveyard and the Breach hadn't gone away yet.

  • @decoutan3900
    @decoutan3900 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    At 28:40 after casting your Timetwister your opponent gets priority; clearly as he taps his sources for mana. He then decides to not respond.....but then you get priority back and could do sth. still in response to your Timetwister; why is that? Priority isn't supposed to pass forever; sure you could hold priority - but after your opponent not using his priority the spell should just resolve.
    Or am i missing sth.?

    Genuine Question, why not crack the Prismatic Vista as early as possible to slightly reduce your chances of drawing land? I get that you miss out on Sylvan/Brainstorm value, but surely in games where you're risking flooding it's worth it?

  • @Vermilio893
    @Vermilio893 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Some thoughts about the first match: I think in game 1 the most likely line to get there was timetwister them again without Hullbreacher in play when you have 6 cards in hand and hope they draw one of their eldrazi, or perhaps even both. Still unlikely to get there but maybe a bit better on the probability.
    In game 3 it would have been good to check what card he took when you cycled the ent, knowing about breach being gone seems like pretty valuable information, even though it didnt matter in the end as it turned out :)

    • @sparepartshere-fl9il
      @sparepartshere-fl9il 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      At that point LSV was down to 1 card in library and 6 or 7 in hand. Still, I think that it was very possible to play to his outs a few spells sooner, find the ent without wasting too many cards and the combination of breach + timetwister would ensure there is enough cards in library to finish the game in 3 attacks (especially as ent creates food to protect from Brazen Borrower beatdown).

    • @sirloathing2028
      @sirloathing2028 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Sorry, I could have been more specific.
      At 29:27 he cast iteration and saw Arcane Denial, Ent, and Ancestral. Opponent had no cards in hand. He could have exiled Ent, put Denial in hand. Cast Ent with counterbackup against opponent's first play.
      Related but unrelated -- LSV mentioned multiple times not having life gain but Ent does provide food token.@@sparepartshere-fl9il

  • @rissolepower
    @rissolepower 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This draft is why I think Fastbond is just a trap pick. It can have some insane draws, but the other side of that coin is having 9 land in play on turn 3 and absolutely nothing to do with it. Vintage cube is so fast now that you just can't afford to be spending 8 life on lands and then missing. The variance is just so frustrating to play with (and against, because let's be honest your opponent is going to have fastbond - 3 land - timetwister every single time)

      The shark is great at generating free artifacts for value, but it's pretty slow as a wincon. That's great for decks like academy/urza decks who want to use artifacts to make a ton of mana and then just sink that mana into stuff, but not storm/combo shells which have other ways to win and have less time to mess around.

    • @zivkobabz
      @zivkobabz 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      ​@@zarcothecheese Yes, but it was early of second pack, plenty of time to go for it. And he had picked a Chaos Defiler, 2 wheels, Animate Dead, Jewel, Fastbond and 8 lands. And jewel works great with it, so does the wheels, and Chaos Defiler would have worked with shop, urza etc. etc. So i was very very confused about his sentence that Chromehost Seashark wasn't for that deck. His deck at that point was 2 expensive artifacts, wheels and animate dead more or less. Try replay draft and look again he could have definitely gone that direction and have had a solid deck. Of course his breach deck is better but he got lucky on brainfreeze wheeling, and fourth pick lotus petal in last pack.
