@@RadTrooper I usually see that emote when they blast out 12 creatures on their turn and I'm at 4 life or something, just for my next turn to be a boardwipe or Urabrask "storm" combo into the opponent conceding before my turn ends. It's always a good time.
@@ForeverLaxx every day I have an opponent that "good game" me by droping a jace and milling me out while I have a virtue/phyrexian portal just to see tragedy hit them during my upkeep. And by tragedy I mean my x1 oracle of tradgedy that shuffle up to 4 cards back in the deck
Its won me so many games in this lizard deck. Its such a counter to all the insane red aggro...instead of going down 4-7 you go up 5. It completely screws up their game plan, just run out of steam.
@@alexandersims1613 Hmmm. Good point. Maybe one of the Duress Lizards, for a single copy, if Bo1. I think Bo3, you replace probably run 2-3 LJFs over the Thought-Stalkers, and keep them in the Sideboard, but Bo1, the current build likely makes sense to prevent a board wipe. But in Bo3, you probably don't run the lifelink instant, either.
It's such a breath of fresh air to see all you content creators being excited and having fun with MTGA again. The new standard rotation sucks and they need to roll it back to how it was before.
I think lizards needs to have laughing jasper flint in it. such a good card p much designed for the lizards archetype. id rather have him than thought-stalker. turn 3 hand disruption is too slow against a lot of decks. at the very least get him in the sideboard as a 2 of for grindier games imo
I'm loving all the tribal stuff this set. Bats, Mice, and Lizards all feel like actual playable decks that aren't just 2 bats or 2 mice plus a ton of generic "good stuff"
And what's especially good is how few cards actually care about tribe. Take this deck, what we have? Scales, Gev, that's it? For the most part, they just happen to have abilities that synergize with other cards in this tribe, meaning they aren't useless outside of their tribe.
Simpleminded answer, clearly there are more options for WotC than pushing pure aggro or pure control. Currently complexity has little to no value in gameplay, almost everything revolves around highest value per card and lowest cost per card. That is incredibly boring and makes the competitive MTGA landscape the way it currently is.
Personally the thpught stalker is to vostly for its effect for me in this deck. Replace 2 with Jasper and the other 2 for cruelclaws heist for a little hand disruption and thats 4 cards that can yoink cards from opponent what ch is teally good in the his deck outside of early acxess because counterspells will be good to steal and removal.
Is nobody going to mention that there are no mythics in this deck? Rakdos is my preferred color combo. I love lizards. I love aggro decks. I love fast decks. I am a budget player. This is on my wanted list and is now on my deck idea list.
The chief failing of BLB is that no card was named like... King Gizard's retinue with Creature- Lizard Wizard Anyway, any chance this deck makes the cut in bo3? I'm not a fan of bo1 but I wanna play with lizzers.
Didn't WotC say a month or two ago say they were generalizing many creature types so Naga and others would just be called snakes? Now they bring meta lizards.
CGB having to re-learn how combat works is the best MTG content I've seen in a while! 😂
Dang. This deck is cold-blooded.
I prefer the fluff of the rabbit deck
Nice.
I see what you did there. Clever clever
I love how queuing against Ash activates the "Finally, a worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!" center in CGB's brain.
...poor KineticPush. His name got done dirty.
I did a slight facepalm when he said it haha; a good chuckle at the end of the video
Yeah you know, like Kine Tech energy. Everyone knows about Kine Tech…
He got pushed so unkindly
Legit came to the comments to say the same thing lmao
@@Inifnitiv Fatally so, perhaps
People emoting "Good Game" because they know they'll lose...
CGB: You have it? How do you win?
i dont blame him though, plenty of opponents good game me when they think they would win.
@@RadTrooper I usually see that emote when they blast out 12 creatures on their turn and I'm at 4 life or something, just for my next turn to be a boardwipe or Urabrask "storm" combo into the opponent conceding before my turn ends.

I miss sneaky reach. Nothing felt better than a "GG", block, shame resign

Normally, when I do that, unless I'm staring down an obvious win, I just concede right afterwards.
That second to last game was incredible finish with stoke the flames. You did great!
a combat trick that gives:
+2/0
lifelink
indestructible
for ONE mana
is underrated.

It annihilates red aggro.
aww yes streamer event, when limited mechanis seem to be great in constructed
Kinda surprised that there's no Laughing Jasper Flint.
Jasper’s scuffed because you never draw him. His Shuffler RNG is literally THE WORST (this has been my day’s salty outburst)
@RetroMTG woah you are totally right though, I thought it was just me. Wonder why he is like that?
@@RetroMTG I draw him all the time in my Rakdos Outlaws. And I only have two copies.

He’s way to slow for a deck like this.
This deck looks like the most fun out of all the archetypes I’ve seen so far.
Have been watching all your videos with Rarran and now I always get Hearthstone-ads. Never got those before. 😁
I see a ton of synergy here, and that makes me think that Jasper Flint is not here for a good reason
It's kind of funny because every Lizard in the deck is an Outlaw and yet Jasper still looks pretty mediocre in the deck. RIP.
I'm so out the loop. totally didn't know fabled passage was reprinted in bloomburrow
I feel like I've been really tuned in and didn't know that either haha
It's such a breath of fresh air to see all you content creators being excited and having fun with MTGA again. The new standard rotation sucks and they need to roll it back to how it was before.
It… tips the… “scales” 😂
12 rares when not including lands is also pretty affordable
Wow this deck is kinda sick! Cant wait to try it
ash gave me ~Let the "bunny" hit the flor~ vibes :)
I knew I wanted to play BR Lizards in Standard the moment I tried em out at prerelease. This just solidifies that desire!
All of these creatures are also classified as Outlaws, so one or two Jasper Flints could have a home if this didn't pop off so early.

3:01 liz.. wizrd... lizrd...
..wizrblehbleh
Look at his tongue! He's one of them!
The Lizard Outlaw deck is insane! A ton of support from OTJ as well

Why does Agro get so much love? Games are not longer than 5 minutes but still they get the best cards and don’t require a lot of mythics.
WotC is trying to push MTGA to match games like Marvel Snap in game speed (I assume)
Because no one wants to play a 30-minute slog fest against azorious control just to get one single daily win.
@@brittanyhollowell4065 i like this kind of games.
This is a tribal set. Not much room for control in these sets.

Delney + Valley Rotcaller + small Offspring critters
I have never looked at a Standard set and immediately thought power creep as fast as this set.
Ive been using valley rotcaller as well to get in extra damage
Gev is gonna be my next commander deck. I love Rakdos and there are SO many cards that ping everyone for 1.
Personally the thpught stalker is to vostly for its effect for me in this deck. Replace 2 with Jasper and the other 2 for cruelclaws heist for a little hand disruption and thats 4 cards that can yoink cards from opponent what ch is teally good in the his deck outside of early acxess because counterspells will be good to steal and removal.
Idk, both of those cards need to live to do anything. Warlock is an etb.
Why no Valley Flamecaller? Seems insane in this deck.
Was wondering when youd do lizards they stomped everything else i saw tried.
Lol so many bunniies !!!
I just wish Wizards were Outlaws, so that Fireglass Mentor could be a Lizard Wizard.
May I interest you in the McElroy family playthrough of BG3 featuring Fizz Gizard the Wizard Lizard?
Wizard of the Coast will never admit to be Outlaws bro
Fireglass mentor absolutely carried me through some of sealed games
Id run jasper flint as my 3 mana slot, since these lizards are outlaws too, because more card advantage
My toxic trait is that I see wizards pushing a creature based meta and all I want to do is build a kill everything control deck
Looking forward to the metagame breakdown, gonna build both mice and lizards if they’re good
They are all outlaws, which can trigger jasper flint.
Seeing all these powerful aggro decks makes me understand why Magic Foundations is bringing Day of Judgement back to standard.
- Favourite Bloomburrow creature type: Lizard
- Least favourite color pair in MTG: Rakdos
Oh God, here we go again trying to make Mardu work 🤌
Yes YES another creator talking about how three tree city doesn't curve correctly!
Seems like laughing jasper would fit in with this
I bet Double Down would he a fun add in for all these mercenaries assassins and warlocks!
beware the wizard lizards casting blizzards
This deck seems like it scales well.
Ki ne tic push.
Like kinetic energy
As 1 of Bloodletter of Aclazotz and Lively Dirge could spice this up nicely.
One or two Ojer Axonil's would go hard in this deck
I'm really enjoying the bats in bloomburrow
Is nobody going to mention that there are no mythics in this deck?
Rakdos is my preferred color combo. I love lizards. I love aggro decks. I love fast decks. I am a budget player.
This is on my wanted list and is now on my deck idea list.
CGB, if you're coming to Gencon and need a Mountain Dew or workout area access to keep the streak alive, I got you!
Just out of curiosity, does the Early Access event give you access to all formats or is it 24 hours of Standard Only?
It's just standard. It's a special client hosted separately, so diluting the pool of players with multiple formats doesn't make sense.
@@ski9019 What about the draft players? Nizzahon is playing early access draft. Is that a separate event?
When will we get to see the hamster deck?
0:50 and Wizards( of the Coast) are into Lizards...
Is this deck worth buying in paper?
This deck makes me want a Sobe
Laughing Jasper Flint.
You're welcome.
Welcome for what? The card slows this deck down
Did you stream for the event or just record?
Did not stream as far as I know.
This list could take advantage of a lot of Outlaw/Crime payoffs, since every lizard in this list seems to be an outlaw.
I would love to get excited but then I immediately think how this deck probably gets slaughtered by boros and monored
The fact that they didn’t make Fireglass Mentor a lizard wizard is a travesty
Cgb continuing to prove that aggro isn’t brainless
King Gizzard and the Wizard Lizard has entered the chat....
Wonder if Magebane Lizard would go well here....
i saw that 1 black lizard and i knew it was gonna be broken
Is this set the most anti UW set?
The chief failing of BLB is that no card was named like... King Gizard's retinue with Creature- Lizard Wizard
Anyway, any chance this deck makes the cut in bo3? I'm not a fan of bo1 but I wanna play with lizzers.
looks like a decent almost budget deck to run about with.
Yeesh. We need Witch's Vengeance in standard now more than ever.
Man kine tic push goes hard
Why not the new lizard that has warfare effect attached to a body
This is how you deck build. Jim David’s build is so weak. 😅
And not a single lizard wizard D:
I will miss blue white control so much
Kin-ET-ic push, CGB
Lizards of the Coast 😂
Didn't WotC say a month or two ago say they were generalizing many creature types so Naga and others would just be called snakes? Now they bring meta lizards.
By Lizards of the Coast 🦎
this one excites me !
I guess the deck scales well
I guess the only direction for control in this standard will be Esper with multiple board wipes
Looks like I'ma take a break from standard, or from arena as a whole
seems like my kind of aggro deck.
Lizards of the Coast
He BUTCHERED that member shoutout name 😂
Rakdos baby! Let’s go!
But can you do a control deck vs this meta 😅
The deck that CGB might be complaining about on ladder in about 2 weeks.
Frogs are also amazing
Watching CGB trying to use combat tricks makes my stomach hurt
Nice deck
You gotta make control weaker for ANY kind of cool creature list to survive on the ladder 😅
Everything targets. Is there a good crime payoff?
Lizard brain moments
FOR THE LIZARDS!
I didn't hear cuts.
OMG standard rotating?! I'm so thirsty I might as well be dead...
THE VALUE!
it's tree tree city to me, lol
So basically every deck is broken or busted? Got it. Guess everything balances out, then
Is this that Bloomburrow set?
