The E/A Tempo list at 39:32 is slightly wrong. The Rafiki's should be 1 drop Rafiki. Also the Jafar list at 52:11 was apparently not a Jafar deck at all but R/A Control. I apologise for these mistakes.
Great breakdown as usual. As an FYI, if you weren't aware, the reason the word 'wheel' is used for AHNW is based on a term that came from MTG. This being because of an early card called Wheel of Fortune, which is essentially verbatim to AHNW.
The reason people refer to A Whole New World as "wheel" is actual because of an old card in Magic the Gathering called Wheel of Fortune that does exactly the same thing as A Whole New World. And since this type of effect has been printed so many times in MTG it just gets referred to as "wheel". The car wheel analogy is funny though. :)
Funny you thought about the standoff term being insensitive because i asked myself the same question as you said it. A term that’s been used my whole life to describe that situation but im not up on the PC rules so good call playing it safe. Good video dude!!!
Yeah I plan to test with The Queen and see how that goes. If there was a 1-drop Queen of Hearts I’d be very interested in that line, but without one it’s too awkward imo.
These Jafar decks really need to include sheriff of Nottingham in their builds. If he’s on board when you sing AHNW each card in your hand that you discard becomes 1 damage you can spread how you like. Say 5 is discarded you can deal 2 damage to one character and 3 to another.
Would be interested to hear the reasoning behind no pluto or hades in the mufasa list. I think teeth is pretty good in that list, not just for Eric but also giving damage for Rapunzel to heal and using on your own hydra to ping out even more damage to an opposing card
i can understand no pluto bc as an uninkable thats useless late game and sometimes is not needed in the early game, he just negs one with low card quality. if you get off pluto gothel rapunzel, its great, but you can get off gothel rapunzel without him and you have 1 more good card in hand then. I have played more than 50 games with red yellow in set3 on pixelborn and pluto didnt impress me. terrible hands usually contained plutos without anything relevant to ramp into it, I just handlooped myself for one then.
@@VORTEX___ honestly this sounds like a take I agreee with. I did/do like Pluto, but it may just come down to the slots being better filled by other things. I just hate missing Doc by 3.
@@VORTEX___ what have you found better than pluto though? Just the 1 cost stitch or just more bigger bodies? I agree that this deck really can't afford too many uninkables since it doesn't have reliable draws like amethyst or something.
Can anyone confirm the Rafiki in the E/A Tempo list? The new 1-cost is more common but 3-cost rush is an interesting change if thats showing correctly.
Maui whale is so random not really sure how good it is. I don’t see it really doing anything other than one shotting locations which you can already do with normal maui and with a fish hook. I mean 7 cost means it can sing be prepared if needed I guess.
The relentless beast in the second emerald steel list also has the benefit of being able to sing multiple times. Especially since most of the songs in the deck deal damage. I don't think he's really there to gain lore.
Tested with it. I don’t think I’ve ever used his ability without it dying (assuming it even gets to survive instead of dying to swords/teeth). Combined with not questing when you get the discount, not dealing any damage, being un-inkable, big pluto being both expensive AND dying to Medusa, etc. Just a lot of little things that make it not worth imo. I expected it to be Llanowar Elves, but it was actually Blood Pet.
I imagine there will be a good number of people who have the cards they need, I think Steelsong is just being under piloted atm. It did win the latest big online event so, I think we will see it from time to time!
Ive heard multiple top players say they prefer RP over others because they 'cant' lose to casual players in early swiss rounds. If they were in a tournament without casual players, theyd play other color combos But yeah, im not a top player but im not playing steel cuz it's out of budget lulz
@@LorcanaHoodRat Yes indeed. Steelsong rely a too much of AWNW. This deck can be the deck or it does almost nothing. Plus, R/P is more conveniant to play dince it was the main deck set 2, and it's cheap.
It’s called “the wheel” because of a card in Magic the Gathering called Wheel of Fortune. By the way, it was BANNED in 1994. It caused people to hate the game. Hmmmmm…
I do it for newer players to make it easier for them to follow along, explaining everythings purpose. This will continue to be a thing for the first few weeks of every format!
Do you know of another way to play Lorcana on the computer that is not Pixelborn? I can't win any games anymore. The opponents aways gets the cards they need and I can't stop them. Otherwise I will have to quit Lorcana since I have no way of testing decks to see if they work. @@LorcanaVillain

Franchuche here (top 7 with Bounce Deck)
There is indeed a mistake in this decklist. The 3 Rafikis are indeed the one drop instead of 3 drops :)
I apologise for reporting this incorrectly! Congratulations on your run!
@@LorcanaVillain thank you for covering our decklists! Not your fault ofc :)

I like the idea of flaversham hurling thunderbolts
Right?!
Is there a link to upcoming events in the USA?
Can't wait to see how amber ruby mufasa evolves.
I think the rockstar stitch lines kinda suck. The Queen of Hearts or The Queen package is better imo.

My guess? Both because un-inkable, and Pluto because it’s a lot worse than it looks on paper.
Pretty much any goon. Just being an inkable turn 1 play that can quest. Good early, ink late, drawing multiple isn’t ass.

If it is a mistake then I apologise for that!
Yes, it's not those Rafikis I used, but indeed the one drop. Its à mistake from them.
There's a mistake with my list (Zarati). I wasn't playing P/S but the Zefa R/P decklist.
You were playing Red Purple? Not Amethyst Steel? is that what you mean?
Yes indeed. The mistake comes from the Inkdecks sites. They apparently swapped my decklist with another player that wasn't in the top 16.
Well darn, thank you for the update, and I apologise for the innacurate report! @@Zarhati
No problem! 😁
Maui whale is so random not really sure how good it is. I don’t see it really doing anything other than one shotting locations which you can already do with normal maui and with a fish hook. I mean 7 cost means it can sing be prepared if needed I guess.
Also 1-shots Cinderella, which is probably relevant
Queen’s Castle too, which rarely comes down on 4
I think Locations are important enough, and having something to sing be prep doesn't sound awful.
Not only can it 1 shot a location, it can 1 shot several locations and characters in 1 turn!
@@LorcanaHoodRat Didn’t notice that isn’t once per turn, yeah card is sick

Yes a great point!
the biggest surprise has beem the lack of pluto
yeah it's a surprise to me tbh!

It’s crazy that Amber Steel is gonna see virtually no IRL play/tops this format because Beast, Rapunzel, and Robin Hood are all $40.
I don’t think that’s what’s gonna hood it back

I feel like you have an opinion on this... xD
Rockstar Stitch feels so mid in that Mufasa list
yes but is there anything better now? queen of heart? there is not enough good draw in amber ruby unfortunately
I moved away from stitch's in my own Mufasa buillds and preferred the deck without tbh! But did well for them!
