19:09 Casting Seek the Beast in the Endstep, before it expires will grant you 2 extra cards for your next turn, cause its worded "until your next endstep" ... i think
19:09 Correct me if im wrong but I think if you set a stop at end step you could cast the druid during the endstep before the cleanup and keep the cards until the "next endstep" like druid's adventure describes.
Questing Druid says that the cards go away at the beginning of your next end step so I think you can cast it in your endstep and still have your next turn to play them.
I conclusion - Yes I think you're right. And it's relevant for dodging counterspells and "chaining" with older "impulse draw" cards - which go to until end of (next) turn = until your next turns cleanup step. If it was until your next cleanup step instead - you still could not "chain" two seek the beasts as the ending of both the original and one cast from exile from the original happens at some times. I suppose the difference is intentional - but maks it annoying to track the expiration timings of different impulse draws on paper.. You need separate piles for impulse and beastseeked exiles even if they're about to expire in same turns end phase - one expires in end step and another in the cleanup step.

One thing i changed was the luka is now drag to the bottom since you can justify being able to boardwipe off invasion of alara. Make sure you cast the adventure side of bramble familiar or galvanic giant when you hit them with invasion
This deck is extremely fun to play too, I really love all of the options and different ways of playing within one deck. You can really have fun with each match by switching gears. Having all of that card advantage and cards that synergies with getting that advantage is insane.
I agree with your take on board wipes against this deck. I got hit with 4 sun falls and 4 farewells against UW, still pulled out a W. This deck is dummy resilient.
This deck is porb going to be the next deck I'm going to save up to craft, does so much I love to do in magic. Wide boards that grow big and "draw" tons to keep in the game. Reminds me of the green white enchantment deck if you build around that 4 mana when you cast an enchantment make a spirt that as big as the amount of spirts eventually gives them flying but does dies to farewell.
Awesome matches, specially the last one, and it was really nice see the evolution of CGB getting to know better the deck and get to adapt his sequencing.
Gotta say- super fun coincidence that both you and MTGGoldfish posted your videos on this deck at the same time, it’s sweet seeing how you play it vs how Seth does
I built an adventure exile deck white/red/blue modeled after your deck and it carried me all the way to mythic this season. Thank you for your videos I've never watched something so informative
That seems like a fun & resilient deck. It seems to me that it relies heavily on Pia Nalaar... if opponent plays "The End" on Pia, this deck will lose much of its power. Great content! I loved it how you used the bivouac to activate the other bivouac to get the +1+1 counter... great play
Everytime I get back into MTGArena I immediately search for your youtube channel and binge out on your videos. You're so fun to watch and incredibly knowledgeable, thank you for your time and effort in putting these videos together for us!
I never wanted you to win a game more than that one against #8 ranked mono red. Now he can sit there and mindlessly play whatever he happens to draw for the next hour just to get back to where he was.
good afternoon. A wonderful overview of a wonderful deck. The game has been in the same colors for several months now. Red, green, white. I combine them depending on the release.

In my version of this deck I added 1 rocco and have been enjoying that addition thoroughly. It allows casting from exile which synergizes with Pia, it creates food that can be used to sustain me or gives me stuff to bargain with. and rocco's not too easy to remove. maybe something worth considering...
Old time boomer that started his magic games at a pizza joint with revised and arabian nights. I have been watching all your content for years and it is my chill zone after hard work days. I am a passionate blue player but this list looks really juicy. Hope to fulfill my dream one day to get to a magic con and meet you there. Well probably once my son gets old enough to play magic and it is 2:1 against my wife :D
Been messing with this deck concept a lil bit, and threw a Jetmir in place of the Chandran. That proved to be way more fun than it had any business being.
Outstanding deck that I wish that I’d thought of. Kudos to the clever mind that did and to the content guru that showcased it. I’ll be rocking this on the ladder for a hot minute.
just went 0-8 with this in top 300 mythic, was so screwed by all the tap-lands and inconsistancys of the deck, seems very weak against some metadecks in the format, wont be screwing up my rank more today, so on the the next deck :D
Yah I'm having the same experience. Either I'm just too dumb for this deck, or CGB got incredibly lucky in his matchups. I'll keep trying because I like the concept of the deck, but it's very disappointing so far :(
I was having the same issue. If I get pia out and she sticks for a turn or two, this deck is great. But standard has SOOO much cheap removal she never sticks. And in a control matchup, they just nuke the board over and over if they don’t just counter her.
Maybe I'm wrong but I thought I heard someone say you can play questing druid on your end step if you make a stop and then have it act as a wrenn's resolve? I'm skeptical and havent tried it but who knows lol.
So I've been trying this deck on arena before building it in paper. I used all my wildcards to do so. I have done 25 games and have lost 19 of them. I watched the games you did and have a bit of a better understanding, but do you have a primer for the deck I can read through?
Glad i pulled 4 pias amongst the like dozen or so packs i opened from Aftermath. Lol. Sadly i think chandra is pretty bad here. I think more Gobakhans make a lot of sense as well honestly. The protection can be huge for your pia, attacking their hand is great, and building your board is amazing. Jaya could be amazing in this deck though. You have wide boards so her -2 hits often. Her -1 lets you play something from exile. And her +1 gives you a prowess creature which is awesome considering how many non-creatures are in the deck. I might have to mess with that some myself. Oddly, the deck feels like it could really use some mana generation. Maybe Meria from DMU. Wait. She doesnt work with tokens. Hmmm. You might still be able to make her work, but that definitely makes it wayyyy trickier. Probably best for a different deck. Maybe the card in question should be professional face breaker. It can quickly generate treasure for you and then you can use that treasure to either play put more things or draw into more things.
cool to get news on booths for M&G --- do you have your own booth, or would it be too crazy? lmao, anyway, I'll keep my ear to the ground in the covertgowhere channel to see if I can meet you otherwise too. Can't wait for vegas! I dont feel ready, theres so much going on BTW this pia deck is sweet. been seeing it all over the place in tourney lists. Masterclass by yourself in matchups against control, I guess the matchmaker wanted CGB to play against himself XD
Was wondering when you'd cover that pile - after some games of getting used to it, I had loads of fun with that deck in BO3! And the opponent of match 2 put in some serious hours, played them in plat not so many days ago.
CGB, I love you. I love you even more for saying with Pia in hand “you can’t go wrong”. Figuring out how to make this my ringtone. ❤️ Pia (not nalaar) 😎
I built a banger of a deck that can blink my entire board even battles! Fastest rank up to mythic I’ve ever done lol if anyone wants the deck list let me know
CGB, man as much as I love your channel... there is no best deck because as well all know MTG is just rock, paper, scissors. Sometimes we win and sometimes we don't. We cannot control the draw. I love this deck. I played it in 4 games, but ended up 2/2. I got hammered twice; once by mono red and once blue control deck. That being said, this deck will definitely stay in my stable of decks.
since guilds of ravnica i watch your clips and it feels like you are getting better and better at what you're doing, it's a pleasure to watch you, you're really entertaining and it's a big help that you share your thoughts about what you play and why you sequence it the way you do, thank you. i have just one complaint, please stop to call me kid, i'm 53. .🤔😜
I don't buy any of the sets or pay any money for anything, but I have amassed an ok card collection, enough to make a deck very similar to this. This game is completely rigged and not random at all, if you are a TH-camr or you buy the sets your deck comes out completely different than how mine comes out. I just played this and got destroyed most games because the game is completely rigged and not random. Everytime my opponent would just amass a large army of powerful creatures that I couldn't remove at all. I didn't get the removal cards, and I didn't get the draw cards that he got at all and I didn't get the Pia's that he got. I don't think these people understand the game is a joke and a scam. I played the real card game a lot so I know how the real game plays, and its not like this. If you do not pay the hundreds of dollars to buy the sets, you can't win at the same rate.
I have been playing it all morning. Its a total joke. I keep playing opponent after opponent that is pumping out powerful creatures that I can't deal with, Altraxa, Vorinclex shreoldred etc. On top of that I have the same identical lands but have serious land and color problems because if you don't buy the cards you can;t play 3 color decks at all. They never come out right. You people have no clue this game is a total scam and a total joke. I doubt any of you have ever played the real card game, anyone that has, knows this online game is a fraud and rigged to benefit all the people that spend hundreds of dollars buying the cards. If you do not buy the cards you can not win.
Wow had been trying to make a tokens deck work (using the x rats and devilish valet) but it was only 50/50 on ladder, I was considering other cards but had no Pias and no Virtue of Loyalties in my collection; after watching this I would say they are worth crafting!
I had to watch this twice. I tried using the deck after the first, and I was getting killed. Hoping to get better after getting schooled during the second watch.
I might be wrontg. But at 8:47 you use the Torch the Tower on the Bramble Familiar, because killing the Descrator Zombie means it kill ssomething of yours... but the red instant woud EXILE the Desecrator.. so its remains are exiled, too desecrated to cause anyhting else to do. It would have been a great choice to kill it over the smaller thing as you removal their removal on a creature. But realisitically either way works for the win. I just thought i'd remind you that the Torch the Tower has that removal that has you exiled from the game, like the...well people where exiled from jeresalum and many other places alike. I'll leave that openen ended, this is the inernet and I feel my slightly tongue in cheac joke from being rather drunk... will net me ....hmm 50 donvotes. I wish there was a sports bet on this kinda thing (too easy to rig though)

CGB's epic quest to sequence questing druid correctly
I liked when he said he was going to play it at the beginning of a sequence, then completely ignored it and confused himself during combat.
difficulty: impossible
Hahaha this comment made me laugh hard 😃 I was like "You forgot the druid, play the druid!" the entire time😅
@@deadneck131:20
was anyone counting how many counters he missed during this quest? :D
That one counter in the final game was pure genius, well played
when you cast questing druid during your end step you can play them until your NEXT end step.
19:09 Casting Seek the Beast in the Endstep, before it expires will grant you 2 extra cards for your next turn, cause its worded "until your next endstep" ... i think
@covertgoblue for the future, there is a line of text that says, "This card was exiled this turn." to know what cards were exiled this turn or last.
19:09 Correct me if im wrong but I think if you set a stop at end step you could cast the druid during the endstep before the cleanup and keep the cards until the "next endstep" like druid's adventure describes.
I cut the green for BO1 and it's been performing better for sure. The mana base is just unnecessarily finicky for what you're actually trying to do.
And not play the Druid as a creature?
Can you share?
I just stopped playing the druid entirely, it was the worst of the exile 2 spells and without green, no upside. Decklist below. @@mandurang4881 👍
That game against control was awesome. Great to see a deck able to grind it out against multiple boardwipes.
Questing Druid says that the cards go away at the beginning of your next end step so I think you can cast it in your endstep and still have your next turn to play them.
I conclusion - Yes I think you're right. And it's relevant for dodging counterspells and "chaining" with older "impulse draw" cards - which go to until end of (next) turn = until your next turns cleanup step.

You need separate piles for impulse and beastseeked exiles even if they're about to expire in same turns end phase - one expires in end step and another in the cleanup step.

could pack some protection spells maybe instead of the all-out design. the pressure is working though so yea.
Invasion of gobakhan is in the deck you just gotta flip it and then you're covered with lightshield array

Maybe some Skrevls to protect Pia?

Been messing with this deck concept a lil bit, and threw a Jetmir in place of the Chandran. That proved to be way more fun than it had any business being.
18:45 I think we found a very necessary upgrade to what is displayed with "end of turn" to prevent this. Are you still there MTGA Developers?
I did Jeskai Thopter Legends with Pia and Urza Prince of Kroog
Outstanding deck that I wish that I’d thought of. Kudos to the clever mind that did and to the content guru that showcased it. I’ll be rocking this on the ladder for a hot minute.
I got rid of the Chandra, the Thrillseeker, and the Light up the Night and added 3 Pollen-Shield Hare. It's very good for the deck. Give it a try.
Polin hare seems spicy af! Deff going to swap those in for the chandra and nahiri spell
This deck ran me over yesterday. Its really REALLY good when it pops
just went 0-8 with this in top 300 mythic, was so screwed by all the tap-lands and inconsistancys of the deck, seems very weak against some metadecks in the format, wont be screwing up my rank more today, so on the the next deck :D

I was blown away when I saw an Aftermath card on the ladder. Now I know why, the dojo was representing
Wow ... untapped has the Pia deck at 38.9% win rate!
not even once was questing druid // seek the best played correctly, a testament that some cards // interactions go beyond anyone's radar
This is mono-red.
This is mono-white.
Boros value them until they’re dead.
Okay but would you sign that one of a kind The One Ring?
Hey I love your content and I was wondering if you could do the Peregin Took combo with the Experimental Confectioner! You can draw you deck on turn 4
Unless you know they’re not black because both of those cards are in cut down range 🫠
FYI you need a food token on the field for the combo to work!
Usually I play a Koth/Chandra Deck with 3x Triple damage, (city on fire or fiery emancipation) could you maybe work something like that? cannons?
Oh god this looks so fun! Definitely gonna try it out. Thanks CGB!
Question. Could Quintorius, loremaster work in this deck?
Nice video, and I don't even play Standard. It was nice to meet ya at Dragon Con.
Didnt the melee list contains monastery mentors in it? Could be better than chandra
This deck still worth it ? Waiting to open more packs so I don’t have to use wildcards on it. Been loving the different variations of Pia decks thoufh
One thing that strikes me about Pia's moment in the sun is that this might mean there are some decks where March of Reckless Joy is actually good.
Tried coming back to this deck and I'm confidently 0-15 or so.
Last win was fantastic!
The disrespect of getting beat by a land... just beautiful, bivouac for the win!
how does one look at the deck like this? I only have scroll left and right...
Wicked last game, this is a solid deck 👌🏼
Pollen-Shield Hare triples thopter damage for 3 mana.
CGB, have you seen John Avon's secret lair drop? You could be the model for Brainstorm! Sorry if you've already addressed this 😂
Was wondering when you'd cover that pile - after some games of getting used to it, I had loads of fun with that deck in BO3! And the opponent of match 2 put in some serious hours, played them in plat not so many days ago.
Classic CGB deck. So muuuuuuch value!
That was an amazing deck to watch!
YEESSSSSSSS PIA!!!!!!!!! Been waiting for this one. Pia decks are all about finding the right removal for the format meta.
CGB, I love you. I love you even more for saying with Pia in hand “you can’t go wrong”. Figuring out how to make this my ringtone. ❤️ Pia (not nalaar) 😎
... it's just crazy how different card draw is from a few years ago.
For every colour ...
I built a banger of a deck that can blink my entire board even battles! Fastest rank up to mythic I’ve ever done lol if anyone wants the deck list let me know
Hmmmm sounds intriguing
What is it
CGB continues his quest to try to get people to play decks that Esper Control beats
Looks like a fun one. Wonder if 3 mana Chandra is worth trying to sneak in there
What would you take out
CGB, man as much as I love your channel... there is no best deck because as well all know MTG is just rock, paper, scissors. Sometimes we win and sometimes we don't. We cannot control the draw. I love this deck. I played it in 4 games, but ended up 2/2. I got hammered twice; once by mono red and once blue control deck. That being said, this deck will definitely stay in my stable of decks.
Where can i get the best of 3 list
since guilds of ravnica i watch your clips and it feels like you are getting better and better at what you're doing, it's a pleasure to watch you, you're really entertaining and it's a big help that you share your thoughts about what you play and why you sequence it the way you do, thank you. i have just one complaint, please stop to call me kid, i'm 53. .🤔😜
Blue White Boardwipe control is such an eye roll. Zero win-con.
Deck is absolute gas, thanks for sharing!
Hey cgb I really enjoy content you didn't play any smeagol helpful guide a little black and green Mill, I usually play him in saltie decks
I really like playing a lot of toxic decks my favorite video of yours was invoked despair black red blue
I don't buy any of the sets or pay any money for anything, but I have amassed an ok card collection, enough to make a deck very similar to this. This game is completely rigged and not random at all, if you are a TH-camr or you buy the sets your deck comes out completely different than how mine comes out. I just played this and got destroyed most games because the game is completely rigged and not random. Everytime my opponent would just amass a large army of powerful creatures that I couldn't remove at all. I didn't get the removal cards, and I didn't get the draw cards that he got at all and I didn't get the Pia's that he got.
I don't think these people understand the game is a joke and a scam. I played the real card game a lot so I know how the real game plays, and its not like this. If you do not pay the hundreds of dollars to buy the sets, you can't win at the same rate.
I have been playing it all morning. Its a total joke. I keep playing opponent after opponent that is pumping out powerful creatures that I can't deal with, Altraxa, Vorinclex shreoldred etc. On top of that I have the same identical lands but have serious land and color problems because if you don't buy the cards you can;t play 3 color decks at all. They never come out right.
You people have no clue this game is a total scam and a total joke. I doubt any of you have ever played the real card game, anyone that has, knows this online game is a fraud and rigged to benefit all the people that spend hundreds of dollars buying the cards. If you do not buy the cards you can not win.
Wow had been trying to make a tokens deck work (using the x rats and devilish valet) but it was only 50/50 on ladder, I was considering other cards but had no Pias and no Virtue of Loyalties in my collection; after watching this I would say they are worth crafting!
Lol that intro is just great
POLLEN-SHIELD HARE!!! This card is really busted in thid deck
Some of the mana festered while Chandra was sequestered
Chandra with the impulse draws is suspect imo
Is there a side board list anywhere?
MTGGoldfish just made a vid with the deck in Bo3, so you can see the sideboard there.
@@Duall8 I’m actually watching it now 😂
Thank you very much though, I appreciate it.
Nothing says early season decks quite like 5 one ofs lol
I had to watch this twice. I tried using the deck after the first, and I was getting killed. Hoping to get better after getting schooled during the second watch.
I might be wrontg.
But at 8:47 you use the Torch the Tower on the Bramble Familiar, because killing the Descrator Zombie means it kill ssomething of yours... but the red instant woud EXILE the Desecrator.. so its remains are exiled, too desecrated to cause anyhting else to do.
It would have been a great choice to kill it over the smaller thing as you removal their removal on a creature.
But realisitically either way works for the win.
I just thought i'd remind you that the Torch the Tower has that removal that has you exiled from the game, like the...well people where exiled from jeresalum and many other places alike.
I'll leave that openen ended, this is the inernet and I feel my slightly tongue in cheac joke from being rather drunk... will net me ....hmm 50 donvotes. I wish there was a sports bet on this kinda thing (too easy to rig though)
This deck is screaming for Rocco the street chef
It's so funny that he went up against his own deck
I've never spent that many wildcards for a new deck and still don't know why...never lost that many games in a row, too.
That deck is just great to watch
I 100% would have surrendered to that white suns
I used ever single wild card I had for gulgori this rotation...dang shoulda waited
I always dred the day you post a rw stardard deck almost as much as i dred the days you post wu decks
i did a version of this deck but i threw in MAT Rocco
I lost to this deck recently! I was so impressed
I have been running bw tokens and went from gold to mythic with it undefeated
I can't keep pia alive for my life
Someone was playing this in Platinum this morning.
