      I have tried all different ways of melding mishra, rabbit batteries and reckless stormseakers were the most effective ways, and biggest issue I ran into was exactly what you said, it’s just a win more strat. It’s too obvious what you’re doing so either they just keep killing your pieces or if you are about to meld you are already winning significantly and they just scoop.

    23:40 no no no CGB, you are the last person allowed to be salty at a brutal control deck disallowing all your fun with Rakdos colors. If you played more decks that didn’t include blue, your salt would be warranted, because as someone who played strictly Jund colors I’m never allowed to have fun on Arena. Haha.

    I built almost exactly this deck in Arena this afternoon (just a couple of tweaks due to cards I have/don't have), and so far I've only played four games with it, but not only have I also not melded Mishra and the Dragon Engine, I have yet to even SEE Mishra in the deck. And I'm running three Mishras, not just two. 🤣

    I personally have an anvil/gleeful demo deck that runs mishra and dragon engine, I enjoy it quite a bit. I have won games off of mishra partially due to slow rolling or my opponents killing threats early, but it's not the most common thing.

  • @SlapTheSax
    @SlapTheSax ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Hey CGB, great video as always. I have been running a dragon tribal-ish deck on arena and also threw in Mishra/dragon engine. I tend to get it off semi-frequently because I have a bitter reunion to pop for that sudden attack to trigger the meld. Might be worth looking into.
    Edit: Rivaz of the claw is also very helpful for pulling dragon engine out of graveyard.

    If a Tainted Adversary blocks a Phyrexian Obliterator, the Adversary's controller only needs to sacrifice 2 permanents, right? Seems like we could set up situations where we throw away a Bloodtithe Harvester and it's token to do so without it feeling so bad. That or just the decayed zombies.

    • @dariogliendo
      @dariogliendo ปีที่แล้ว

      Yea, I don't think he should have let himself get destroyed by that obliterator having Adversary, it blocks the obliterator and because of the counter it gets when payed up, you have to sacrifice 3, maybe zombie tokens and 1 extra creature, it's devastating but could have kept the game going

  • @namdoolb
    @namdoolb ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I've had a lot of fun playing mishra meld over the past few months. & yes; meld is actually very achievable.... but ofc at the same time you should not be depending on the meld because it is extremely disruptable.
    There's definitely some differences in the way you've chosen to go Vs the way I played it. I came down on more of an anvil shell & worked the pair of them into there. No sheoldreds or reflections in my build. (I do have the cards, but they never seemed to fit properly into the plan.)
    I might have to look & see if I have the list saved anywhere (it's pen & paper standard so I might not have a record of it). I'm not playing it currently, but only because I like to switch up decks on the regular. It actually did very well, & I stuck with it for longer than most of my decks.

  • @DakeGordon

    Is that some legendary land ruling I don’t know about?

    • @angematias4425
      @angematias4425 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes its called the legendary rule. You van activate a land/creature/permanent that is legendary, play another and use that one again if you got the means to

    • @agm20121
      @agm20121 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's legendary, so it's subject to the legend rule. Tapped the first for mana. Mana floating, they played another copy, legend ruling the tapped version away which allowed them to then tap the new one for another mana.
      Same idea as activating a planeswalker's ability, casting another one, then using the new one's ability again.

    • @DakeGordon
      @DakeGordon ปีที่แล้ว

      Woops. I thought he played 2 eiganjos in one turn. That’s what threw me off. Props to him tho. I wouldn’t have thought to pop the mana then replace it.

      @cronsola1357 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That looks like it would've worked just fine, good call! The opponent still would have been left with 3 health, but CGB's Sheoldred would still be alive, and the only cost would've been that last Treasure token. Not that it would've helped, as the opponent scooped next turn anyway, but still!

    • @ChaosForce08
      @ChaosForce08 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, I think that's a better line. The main thing you give up is the opportunity to Triple Bloodtithe for -6/-6 the next turn, but that doesn't seem worth it to not keep Sheoldred around/trade with the opponent's. Might be incorrect to even play the Adversary there as I think the opponent's only out is a sweeper.

    Don't expect to meld Mishra if you dilute the deck with Sheoldred and Gix. You've hedged yourself out of the win con. I meld this all the time, but you have to commit to it in the brew. Nothing short of 4x4 on Mishra and Dragon Engine. Also- key strategic point, play Dragon Engine into Mishra, sacrifice the Dragon Engine on 4 mana attack. The opponent will eat the double strike to stop the meld. Then you unearth and meld. That's the play.
