    Just FYI with Jon Irenicus, the MEAN way to play is very similar to a mean Zedruu build where you give them bad gifts such as Hellcarver Demon, Desecration Elemental, Ebonblade Reaper, Plague Reaver, etc. It can become borderline stax after a certain point. While I don't think it's a bad idea to include a few of those for when an opponent is getting ahead, I like more the idea of putting unblockable dudes into the deck like Invisible stalker and such and just accruing more value than making yourself a huge target with the bad gifts plan.

      I built the mean style Jon deck and while it's fun giving people awful creatures, I've found I need to have a healthy balance between creatures that suck to control and ones that suck to get hit by. I actually Hellcarver'd the bro last Friday, had the card maybe 14 years and it's the first time it's been played. Surprisingly fun deck!

    • @amarauk9687
      @amarauk9687 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The mean way is the only way to build it, because at some point the goad thing doesn't work anymore and you want your last opponent to be in the worst shape possible.
      The inclusion of small unblockable creatures is a really cool idea, never thought about it

    Jon Irenicus is one of the most fun deckbuilding experiences at the moment. With his unique ability you can do so many weird things.
    But I have no clue why Max gave away Gisa. Keep her for as long as you can, destroy something and then give the resurrected, decayed guys away again. Sure, this doesn't give you the card-draw trigger but decay makes it, that they have to sacrifice the creature after combat - which gets prevented by Jon. They can't be saced so they stay on the board. And the problematic creatures can just chill on your side of the board.
    Maybe Max thought that you have to give a creature away with Jon, but this is false! You can give "up to one" creature away, which also can mean 0. This is probably the reason why he gave away Jon two times in the game, which in a nutshell doesn't make any sense at all. Hope he gets more games with Jon in so he learns this deck a bit more to give us another cool performance.

    I like the idea of the Jacques le Vert deck! However, I think Marath, Will of the Wild makes more sense at the helm to enable all of those enrage triggers, I run a handful of the same dinos in my current Marath build

    • @dizzyspindra

      i have a build for both commanders! I like jacques as you don't need to spend mana to pump hp, especially for stuff like broodhatch nantuko. helpful since you run lots of stuff that pings everything and have hp on everything *green*. my marath deck also runs a lot of deathtouch so i dont run much enrage in that deck.

    I love Jon Irenicus, I just built my own version, with creatures like Desecration Elemental, Plague Reaver, and Abyssal Persecutor (which can lead to some very interesting situations) the way I see it is sure you’re opponents don’t have their own board, but they do have huge beaters to smash each other with, and you if you get to a 1v1 and don’t have a way to win from there

    • @Malikaye90
      @Malikaye90 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Goad strategies all tend to have the same problem, no outs in a 1v1. I'd suggest putting in a combo for you to be able close out games. Being in Dimir this means Thassa Consultation. I would then adjust the amount of tutors in the deck to the power level you are playing at, if it's casual little to no tutors are necessary so you dont automatically go for the combo every game and get to actually play with your commander's strategy. Higher power levels? Put in all the good black tutors and blue card draw and control the game with your donated stax creatures while you combo out.

    • @justanotherhuman7106
      @justanotherhuman7106 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@Malikaye90 my current ways to win are through taking all my big beaters back with Homeward Path, or down in a 1v1 exchanging my few creatures with their board worth for a turn with Reins of Power, also Skithiryx The Blight Dragon for some infect wins in 1v1, plus Corrupted Conscious, both helped with Rogue’s Passage. Additionally I can try to beat them down with creature I have stollen with Tergrid and Gisa. And my way to stay alive is with pillow fort effects like Propaganda, Koskun Falls, Dread, Cunning Rhetoric, Sudden Spoiling, Hellish Rebuke, Evil Eye of Urborg, and Evil Eye of Orms-by-Gore. It’s such a fun deck to pilot, and it brings so many cool interactions to the table, my playgroup absolutely loves the deck

      He cast Approach of the Second Sun on his previous turn, it resolved for the first time and got put 7th from the top of his deck.
      On Max' end step he cast Sphinx' Revelation for X=7, which means he draws 7 cards which includes Approach of the Second Sun.
      Because a 2nd resolve of Approach says "You win the game", and the other 3 guys had no way to counter it, they know they've lost.

    Second time I have watched a video of Max Jon Deck. Seems to me he has build a very soft version of what the deck can do. Theres a lot of swamp/island walking creatures out there, along with unblockable critters. Going over his deck list theres not one in there. Also I think its really misplaying Jon whenever he keeps giving his own commander away. Does he really understand what Jon does?
