This is crazy I just started getting into blue white control and looking at post ban content for the deck and couldn't find anything. This is awesome, thanks Mengu!
That last match game 1 against Humans was [[Chef's kiss]]. Opponent was really trying to relive the glory days of old, refusing to concede until the bitter end going all in on the Champion 🤣
its really funny how before the ring bans, people were saying 'but what about control! it will be unplayable without ring' not realizing that it was already unplayable lmao this is rly heartwarming to see, bc I love control. Edit: Narset + Geier's reach sanitarium is SUCH a strong combo. Forcing your opponent to discard a card every turn til they're down to none, at which point they can never draw another card... ♥
The drawback of coming into play untapped makes it way too slow for a format like today's modern. you must always have a way to get each land into play untapped. Miss the good ol days tho...
I just won a game with Teferi 😊 (Cat-Frog [Lurrus + Psychic Frog] + splash W w/ Teferi, Verdict, and Plowshares) I know this is a U/W Control veedeo but I run something SO similar to do the same thing, except with Frog as backup.
You can't play Kaheera if you play Snap, also there's tension in the sideboard with Rest in Peace. And the deck is playing 4 PEndings and 4 Solitudes, which is a good amount of spot removal. Though I'm not saying either is wrong, the neat thing about UW control is that you can finetune it depending on your local meta, besides the core the deck is really flexible, so it might make more sense for you to play other cards at your LGS than on mtgo.
I saw the timestamp of 4c rhinos and my mind went to fkin siege rhino and i was like ok i gotta see this. tbh tho it'd be crazy to find out siege rhinos added something to the shardless rhino strat - I can see a world where that could be the case. I mean someone in this league here was playing time sieve cookbook combo and I was impressed by that idea too.
This decks good. But I think it could use 4 copies of a 4 cmc artifact that grants protection from everything and taps to add a counter then draw a card for each counter on it.
I'm interested in making this work in Timeless, any advice would be appreciated (even an explanation why it wouldnt be competitive). How does Uro fit in? Edit: Forgot there's no FoN in Timeless, rip my control hopes and dreams :/
Im saying this as someone who hasnt watched the whole video yet, you obviously 5-0d so well see. But as an avid blue white control mage myself (itterally my only modern paper deck) , i don't see the value of running days undoing narset and big teferi. Too much fluff not enough stuff. Personally id like to see one or the other ane preferably big teferi tbh. Cut all the narset days undoing maybe one narset main one side, or just two side, add more time raveler (1 or 2 more) add some more removal or counter like prismatic ending or a no more lies or something. My list is actually kinda close to this i use two big teferi as my win con i play 3 time raveler usually hall of the storm giants gets there as an additional wincon, people have been telling me to test the restless reef idk if it's modern playable.
You misheard what he said. It wasn't "attack" it was "tuck" (In this deck, you can win by "tucking" with Teferi). It refers to a situation where you have Teferi Emblem and you are playing him every turn using his minus ability on himself to put it in your library which prevents you from decking out.
@@parisulki729 Suns Champion and Knight Errant were both playable in control decks at one point. I miss Suns Champion, it was the first planeswalker I owned.
I absolutely love your commentary, playstyle and glass water drinking. I would love to see your win/losses not in the title. It spoils the intensity of the games. I'll still watch regardless!
UW control is playable again, Modern is healing
Uw control is now playable like each tier4 in any modern metagame
Let's go! We brought back a staple!
Thank you so much for the video ❤
Finally..i been waiting for this..
Make Azorious great again
All these back to back 5-0s! Awesome Mengu!
Your videos are excellent, and you are an incredible magic player. Thanks for inspiring me to get back into modern. So excited 🎉🎉🎉
@@damiend.7392 thanks!
Tune the Narrative is sooo good with 4 Wraths.
This is crazy I just started getting into blue white control and looking at post ban content for the deck and couldn't find anything. This is awesome, thanks Mengu!
Great content! Modern is diverse again!
Bravo Mengu! 😊

Mazzo che porterò domenica al Damnation, unica cosa sono indeciso tra 2 damping sphere o 1 damping sphere e 1 stony silence di side
Not surprised the video is 2 hours long. Control lets you play more magic, its great.
What a thumbnail, hope you r enjoying the holidays!
Had a dream last night about playing Modern with Mengu, gotta stop falling asleep to premium MTG gameplay...

i will always root for uw control! always feels like an underdog to me
UW control always reminds me of YellowHat. Glad the video is over 2 hours in his honour
My favourite deck of all time alongside izzet delver❤
Im building uw control in legacy. I can’t wait for the Buffalo chicken dip in February
Uw control! 21(+2) lands is amazing..
Azorius is the best guild in MTG
Untrue but i love it
2:00:29 The salt is real
What is the Orin’s chant for?
storm
Doctor checked my blood type and said “Damn! It’s Azorius.”
Funny was just thinking the past few days Teferi maybe modern playable again
Also funny I rarely play magic but still think about it all the time
Wrath of the skies is quite obnoxious. I might have to put Gaddog Teeg into my SB
Is celestial colonnade worth playing

Miss the good ol days tho...
only after your 4th copy of Castle Vantress
hey mengu - how do you feel about spell pierce over spell snare mb?
obviously the deck worked well but still surprised no tamiyo
Don't they die to wrath of skies?

Not even one Jace TMS is kinda sad, but here we are
Why not snapcaster or spot removal? Not good enough? I hope refers becomes good again, I’m sitting on a play set of each, I need the money 😅

Our first post-ban companion deck(at least a good one, there are some terrible obosh lists around)
This decks good. But I think it could use 4 copies of a 4 cmc artifact that grants protection from everything and taps to add a counter then draw a card for each counter on it.

MY HERO =}
Dress down into 4th wrath is why everyone hates control players. Hahaha love it.
Sono contento di vederlo ma credo sia sotto metà del meta più giocato difficile stare dietro a hollow, boros e fenici
How can Teferi attack?
You misheard what he said. It wasn't "attack" it was "tuck" (In this deck, you can win by "tucking" with Teferi).

That’s super cool, never heard of that before. Thanks for the reply!
I miss Elspeth in control
Which one?
@@parisulki729 Suns Champion and Knight Errant were both playable in control decks at one point. I miss Suns Champion, it was the first planeswalker I owned.
11:30 unbanning uro is the craziest thing I’ve ever heard you say 😂
Its totally fine
Double mountain, why?
I absolutely love your commentary, playstyle and glass water drinking. I would love to see your win/losses not in the title. It spoils the intensity of the games. I'll still watch regardless!
Subtlety is not great enough? Not needed? No cool plays with Dress Down even?
