I don't know how you do it, but publishing every day is unreal. You're great. Your content is really great. I found this to be a distraction for me every evening. I'm grateful to you. Keep doing what you're doing. Greetings from the Czech republic.
@@faustozanella1424 He blocked the 2/2 shark instead of the 4/4. If he blocked the 4/4 he would have lived. Passed turn and won. The guy either lost on purpose or missed clicked.
With my comment, I will not berate you for your play but thank you for playing a variety of decks with incredibly interesting lines of play. My friends and I have a league where we use 7 random sets and play a round robin tournament every month. Since we can't really net deck lists and have to adapt based on what's available, I find your videos really valuable in your narrated logic of plays. You have a lot of great wisdom in the value of cards, filling in slots to cover bases against different matchups, and tinkering with all kinds of decks! So thank you for being so ambitious with your daily deck building and having a great growth mindset. I have learned a lot from you about Magic in general despite having played for almost 20 years now.
I know right? I was trying it out when the omnath ban went out. "So its all rogues and mill for a full graveyard? cool" as shown here though the interface is fucking awful to use and easy to make mana mistakes
I want you to know that my husband and I watch you every day. You are marvelously entertaining! We think you are the best! Not just at Magic but at pure entertainment. We have played Magic since the 1990’s 1995, to be specific) and now play Arena every day. You are the highlight of our Magic experience. We are not trolling for your mistakes! So please remember, when you get comments about how you missed lethal (everyone does that!) there are MORE of us out here ON YOUR SIDE!! We just think you are wonderful!
Here's my wish: for 100k subs, you could release a video of "how I think about decks" in a generic way. What gives a deck speed, how much removal is needed, etc. etc.
I've been playing a Titan's Nest/Shark Typhoon deck for a couple of months, but it has Kiora Bests the Sea God and self-mill. I'm happy to see a version of the deck getting some love, and I might try this one out!
For someone who just got back into it (Now Arena) regardless of "mistakes" it's fun just to learn about meta and new systems etc... Haven't played since 2009. You got me hooked on Rogues.
@@JohnWick-pr8oh This hits home, i have 100% conceded games after making a misplay on that level. (My opponent deserved the win even if i wasn't punished)
Here's a shout to you and the great content you pump out seemingly endlessly. Thank you 💘. As far as the haters? Haters are always going to hate. I go through this same stuff with chiefs fans every week. No matter how much positive you give them, they're still gonna hate. You just keep your compass pointing North bud. Peace ✌️. Keep that good stuff rolling! 🔥🔥🔥
I'm back to Magic after nearly a 10 year break and your content is informing me and inspiring me. Really appreciated your intro on quitting competition play on a previous video too, thank you sir 🙏
The look on your face on the last game finale was priceless. This deck looks fun and is a good cardio workout for the left mouse button clicker finger. Creeping Omnath...(metallica headbang)#coolkids
Great Video with a cool deck. The last game was EPIC! It's always cool to play an epic game and appreciate it no matter win or lose. Mistakes made help us all learn, thanks for being bold enough to play a new deck you haven't mastered yet.
Ok today some good plays of our entertainer: That land play at 5:07 was really nice gameplay from CGB it took under account that it enters tapped. Its a master mind move because the other lands enters the battlefield untapped and therefore he has maximum mana on the following turns.
Nice, I've been brewing my own Titans Nest deck for a while now. Mine includes cycling alternatives to the typical sultai cards. Also loving Fae of Wishes so I can consistently pull the answers that I need for the current situation, and I end up casting it on the same turn due to the Nest. The deck in this vid is quite interesting and I might try this variant out!
I saw a deck like this on mtg melee a couple times but never finished crafting it and playing it because I was really confused how it was supposed to win anything. Glad CGB is covering it and maybe I will try it out as a result.
At 13:21 there's so many options you articulate and it's crazy, that's a lot of lines to think through 0_0 good job cuz yeah that's kinda crazy. I was watching on 2x speed, so yeah.... it's like 🤯
Thank you for your videos everyday, before watching your videos i would struggle to get to diamond, I've made Mythic 4 of the last 5 seasons thanks to watching you play. Keep up all the good work.
The bottom line is that it takes an incredible amount of will power, mental fortitude, and passion for the game to make a video Evey single day for 600+ days. You are a incredible person and the trolls in the community will never have an accomplishment like that. Those people will never understand what you've been through to do what you do. If they did then they wouldn't say a word and just respect you for the sheer amount of work you've put into this channel. I respect you and I really don't say that about many people. Just keep killing brother!
The super fascinating thing about standard right now is how much graveyard synergy there is. No set has really had an emphasis on filling the graveyard (save *maybe* Theros), but standard's just... doing it.
Not sure if you read these comments or whether you care about a noob like me’s opinion but this is an awesome(ly fun) deck. I didn’t think I was getting much value out of early plays so swapped out Bloodchief’s Thirst for Jolrael, lost the Rain of Revelation for three Into the storys, ( might as well since you have shown me how to get a huge mana pool with the nest) Reduced Whitlwing denial to three, and run four opts.
At 7:55 was an amazing bluff on your part. Making it so your opponent would think you would have no good cards in hand to cast at the moment and that you had no better cards to follow it up with. That being why you only exiled the one card from gy and said before it "free shark typhoon". Probably one of the best and most thought out plays I have seen in a while.
Just keep doing you CGB! You make pretty decent content and everyone's comments doesn't matter. I was worried they got under your skin after a while but you sir are doing something right.
I had the extreme luck to possess all of the cards needed for this deck, and almost all of the cards needed for the sideboard, right when it was posted! So ready to bean my ops with some sharks.
Sorry people give u a bad time in comments, I admire your gaming style, mistakes you make and point later help me learn... Also, quarantine has been hard on me but I watch you every day to get by
Not sure if you’ve covered this somewhere else, but I was curious as to how you make cuts and synergy choices while building new decks? I always end up with a pile of dumb cards and never know what to pick! 😂 O BTW, congrats on your streak @cgb! I can’t wait till you hit your next milestone. 🤙🏻
Nice to finally see nest. It’s one of the most unique decks in standard. I think that Jegantha is not good, sea gate restoration main, casting for 3 blue. I like the removal, more mailing. Also shadows verdict. Also one more card is Fae of wishes, granted for 1 blue is bonkers.
I was playing against that pile of jank a few days ago and milled the hell out of it. (teferi tutelage based mill combined with life-gain and 6 wrath type spells... - against slower decks there is always a wrath available once they get to being able to hard-cast shark typhoon)
I have a tendency to comment about plays I see that differ from what you do, but that's more about me trying to keep my own skill level at least somewhat sharp while in store play is suspended. You shouldn't feel bad at all, your deck building skills are excellent and that is a much better metric of overall skill.
I also played against the scute swarm guy, and the exact same sequence happened! Goose, into greathorn and then removal. Luckily, I had cinderclasm against the swarm and they conceded. Edit: This deck is amazing! The matches were awesome!
Is there any reason Arena made it so you have to pick one card at a time to exile with titans nest? Couldn't they make it like escape cards and you can select several?

Thank you and glad you're enjoying the videos. Happy to be a distraction.
52:56 the confusion on your face is legendary. "They...blocked...wrong?...."
they just though you earned the win I guess :P
probably a fan ^_^
I think he was a fan too.
I've been watching you, CGB, for almost 3 years now and you never disappoint, well almost never :-)
Guys he could not block with atris... it hasn’t fly
@@faustozanella1424 No need to. Just blocking the 4/4 shark instead of a 2/2 shark would be enough to win the game.
@@faustozanella1424 He blocked the 2/2 shark instead of the 4/4. If he blocked the 4/4 he would have lived. Passed turn and won. The guy either lost on purpose or missed clicked.
You had me at hard-cast shark typhoon
"Don't comment on the misplays guys" **the entirety of youtube's mtg commentators start sweating profusely**
No views, 7 likes, and 6 comments?
This is gonna be good.
EDIT: That last game was EPIC!!!
In light of fairness, I have to commend you on your play to heartless act your own shark so the trawler didn't gain life.
That was clever.
53:06 when the enemy plays really well, until he has the finishing blow and hits himself.... epic face

Thanks for the VODS! Watching the showdown early morning Aus time. HYPE! I’ll return for this content after the battle of the Gandalf’s!
The cool kids club would like to express their condolences for the attendees of that local commander game night. RIP Ian.
That last game was LEG--EN--DARY!!! 👏👏
Legend... wait for it..... DAIRY
lol Oh man so happy to see Titan's Nest finally show up in a deck.
Me too. I always thought it was kinda strong. Surveil and create create colorless. Not good? Lol
Before rotation I was using it with memnonic betrayal. Steal the opponents graveyard
@@medikohl That is some spicy brew tech, might have to try that on a rainy day
I know right? I was trying it out when the omnath ban went out. "So its all rogues and mill for a full graveyard? cool" as shown here though the interface is fucking awful to use and easy to make mana mistakes

Glad you enjoy it!
That last game though where they blocked wrong - holy cow... They've must've auto-piloted from such a long and grindy game.
Imagine how he felt after realizing his mistake... I wouldve quittet immediately for a week.
@@JohnWick-pr8oh This hits home, i have 100% conceded games after making a misplay on that level. (My opponent deserved the win even if i wasn't punished)
Thanks for the great content CGB! Keep doing what you're doing.
This deck is so fun! Glad to see you playing something you enjoy.
Take care CGB. Your videos are amazing.
Glad you like them!
Hahaha “that’s enough out of you. Silence. I have to destroy you.” -Salty CGB
best quote I’ve heard today, made me lol for real! 😂👏👏
The heartless act on your own shark. Sweet play! Excellent last game. Regardless of the win or loss, it was fantastic to watch

Welcome back!
Not only is this talented and scary attractive MTG player making awesome plays they even mange to keep it entertaining with commentary

52:40 hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. I died, what a silly goose! He totally had you and messed up the last play. Toooo funny!
@CovertGoBlue, I absolutely love watching your videos, they are very very informative and helpful, please don't stop making videos
And i absolutely agree this deck is seriously a big brain deck
I look forward to your videos everyday, mistakes and all! Keep it up! :D
The ending of that last game was amazing! I'm still mind blown over what happened!
Worth watching purely for CGB's face @ 53:00
Love to see those long, drawn-out games where no-one concedes. Fight to the death!
If that dude at 52:50 is a paid actor, he deserves a raise for sure. Incredible game with one of the silliest endings I've ever seen.
Great Video with a cool deck. The last game was EPIC! It's always cool to play an epic game and appreciate it no matter win or lose. Mistakes made help us all learn, thanks for being bold enough to play a new deck you haven't mastered yet.

@Luke Steiner Ofc its a joke. Made it just because CGB asked so hard to write plays that we like rather than misplays.
The ending is literally the word
"math is for blockers" 😂 epic battle tho
Love your brews man. I like taking them over to historic to see what kind of nonsense I can make :D
Nice, I've been brewing my own Titans Nest deck for a while now. Mine includes cycling alternatives to the typical sultai cards.

i have tried almost every single deck you have shown here, but this i particulary like it a lot, the first time i see the nest used in constructed
A LEGENDARY LAST GAME! Who cares about the misplays.. that was an absolute show! Keep on going, master! Cheers
Omnath SIT! You are Not going to Ian and ruin this peacefull and beloved format!
52:53 my reaction was similar to this, I just laughed afterwards. What a game, though!!
Thank you for your videos everyday, before watching your videos i would struggle to get to diamond, I've made Mythic 4 of the last 5 seasons thanks to watching you play. Keep up all the good work.
It's incredible how quickly you can see these decks after the video goes up. Pretty cool though!

Your mistakes aren’t as bad as the mistakes I make every game! No judgement here lol
53:20 ive been binge watching CGB the past few days for deck ideas, and this is the biggest wtf moment so far in over 10+ videos.
At 7:55 was an amazing bluff on your part. Making it so your opponent would think you would have no good cards in hand to cast at the moment and that you had no better cards to follow it up with. That being why you only exiled the one card from gy and said before it "free shark typhoon". Probably one of the best and most thought out plays I have seen in a while.
😂😂 They block wrong 😂😂😂😂
TY for your content CGB. Got a lot of fun on this one!
Wow, you played, like, every match perfectly! No misplays!
In all seriousness though, I think that first game, it wass the interface on one unused card that got you, way more than misplays on your part.
Just keep doing you CGB! You make pretty decent content and everyone's comments doesn't matter. I was worried they got under your skin after a while but you sir are doing something right.
I coulda sworn I'd see granted from the fae bae himself
I had the extreme luck to possess all of the cards needed for this deck, and almost all of the cards needed for the sideboard, right when it was posted! So ready to bean my ops with some sharks.
CGB that was some really nice quality deck, it got me to diamond easily. Keep up the good work, mate!
Glad to hear it! Congrats on diamond!
53:00 that face is legendary
Sorry people give u a bad time in comments, I admire your gaming style, mistakes you make and point later help me learn... Also, quarantine has been hard on me but I watch you every day to get by
33:27
best pop album ever!
52:55 When your opponent is also a fan =)
Agreed, the guy or gal played well all game. He would not have made that bad of a play if he werent a fan. I wish he would make a comment explaining.
Not sure if you’ve covered this somewhere else, but I was curious as to how you make cuts and synergy choices while building new decks? I always end up with a pile of dumb cards and never know what to pick! 😂 O BTW, congrats on your streak @cgb! I can’t wait till you hit your next milestone. 🤙🏻
Did you guys see that misplay where he said that we should comment about stuff other than misplays? What a PUNT! :D
Nice to finally see nest.
It’s one of the most unique decks in standard.
I think that Jegantha is not good, sea gate restoration main, casting for 3 blue.
I like the removal, more mailing.
Also shadows verdict.
Also one more card is Fae of wishes, granted for 1 blue is bonkers.
Let all those who have NEVER made a mistake, cast the first shade!! Otherwise shut it! CGB FOREVER!
I have a question. What caused you to run Whirlwind Denial instead of other counterspells? Am I missing something?
Edit: Nevermind I figured it out
Love your content buddy, keep it up!
I see you using Omnath to distract us from that little bead of spit. Exactly what the card was made for, and nothing else.
Yo thanks so much for the content! You and saffron olive are the best streamers in the business
I have been loving Sultai mutate. I am definitely going to try this out.
I like that CGB played a sweet Sultai deck!
that last win i did not see coming well played
More sharks! Always more sharks!
red mage moment on that last block. cool video thanks for everything cgb
Interesting take on titan's nest. I think it's pretty descend at the moment but i struggle always witch cards to use with it. Well done
Hey CGB just wanted to say your great and I love watching your stuff.
Glad you enjoy it!
CGB: "Opponent's just itching for something to kill"
Also CGB: *Has access to unlimited flying sharks
Me: "Oblige them"
I was playing against that pile of jank a few days ago and milled the hell out of it. (teferi tutelage based mill combined with life-gain and 6 wrath type spells... - against slower decks there is always a wrath available once they get to being able to hard-cast shark typhoon)
The ending to the final game was insane lol
Well ... on the bright side ... nothing on the bright side ... Hahaha. Love it.
oh sweet! you played electronic cards! what a legend!
Heartless acting your own token was a fun play that really put them on the backfoot
26:12 "God I 'blue' it"
Ah; making a pun on the blue mana you could have left available? I see what you did there ;).
It's actually pretty nice seeing cards in the deck getting swapped out for others mid video. Get to see how it evolves.
That last game was epic, full of misplays on both sides and I loved it.
Try not to take the negative comments personally, no one's ever going to be perfect. I find your content to be insightful.
I have a tendency to comment about plays I see that differ from what you do, but that's more about me trying to keep my own skill level at least somewhat sharp while in store play is suspended. You shouldn't feel bad at all, your deck building skills are excellent and that is a much better metric of overall skill.
Commenting for the algorithm. All blessings to the machine god.
Yes have barely yet to experience the full power of the one, the only Feasting Troll King, whom draws you 7 cards & more!
the last match was sick, dude
I also played against the scute swarm guy, and the exact same sequence happened! Goose, into greathorn and then removal. Luckily, I had cinderclasm against the swarm and they conceded.
Edit: This deck is amazing! The matches were awesome!
Nice play to tell the viewers to comment about youre nice plays.
Is there any reason Arena made it so you have to pick one card at a time to exile with titans nest? Couldn't they make it like escape cards and you can select several?
Really cool deck, cool to see titans nest being good, and I pray for Ian's local commander group😂😂😂
Congratulations CGB, you are now a gif.
