Man, listening to LSV start to make a move, pause, say "if X happens, don't I just get wrecked here?" hum for a second, then play around X, then five seconds later X happens is a trip. It's like that scene in Bourne Identity where he says all the things he noticed in a five second scan of a restaurant.
Really like that u put this video up even with the results. Lots of streamers would have cancelled it and started again. Some fantastic information about cards for drafting this set
@@AT-il2ej He's also in a fairly unique position where no one is going to assume he's a bad player because of bad results in a single draft. Other content creators have a reputation to establish. If they post videos with bad results, the comments will be full of "why would I watch you 0-3 drop when I can do it on my own?"
LSV has always been my favorite drafter, he was one of the first one to cube back in the old MTGO days. He introduced me to cube, better drafting in general, and overall amazing explanations all throughout while being a fantastic player. Thank you so much for producing that much content, I love it!
Aww, that first opponent had the daughter/father duo. Arwen and Elrond, teaming up to defeat, uhh... Old Man Willow, Bill the pony, some dogs, a Hobbit farmer, and the Gondorian rider who asked King Theoden for help and got killed by orcs on his way back to Minas Tirith so Denethor thought the Rohirrim had abandoned him? Bit of an odd team there.
Great content. I get to draft very infrequently, so I learn a lot watching you. It would help me so much if you could hover over the cards for a couple seconds to allow me time to pause the video and read the card. Thanks so much! Keep up the good work.
I'm usually a stickler for pronunciation and I love LotR, but I would've defaulted to a soft "c" too, especially given Tolkien's famous love of the sonority of "cellar door".
Love the content LSV. You won't remember me cuz it was 15 years ago but you stopped by my game store when I was just getting into magic. Told me to stop over extending my white weenie deck into sweepers. 😂
27:58 Wasn't this scoop premature? LSV could block the ringbearer with Bill, and live if he drew the ent. He could even win if he drew removal or a food maker for bill and the opponent had nothing good he had lethal with 12 power from Gollum, Bill and the other two. It was a long shot but he wasn't dead yet.
Looking at these drafts so far right after IPA, it feels like after two boosters of LOTR, you get so many more playables than with all three boosters of IPA. Today's sets just make it way too easy :P
do people acctually like theham? everytime ijoin his stream hes always super negative , says he hates the game and would love to sell his account off but then says he cant because part of his income comes from ads and twitch. hes also never open to suggestions really . im not trying to be negative myself this is just what i've observed. weather hes a good player or not he just gives off super negative energy in my opinion
@@yO-xe3ny Why do you care enough to correct someone's pronunciation of a fictional word when the content of the video clearly has nothing to do with that

Bill the Pony being a great ringbearer is actually a flavour win because he is a Ringbearerbearer.
Small correction, Bill was Samwise’s pony, so Bill would have been the ringbearer’s bearer’s bearer. 😂
If only he was a ring-bearer bear
@@VictorianoOchoa If they gave him gray hair he could be a Grizzled Ring-Bearer's bearer's bearer bear.
dude I've been waiting for a dedicated LSV channel for so long!
eww
The flood in game 2 tilted me off the planet and I wasn't even playing. 15 lands, played many partings, and still drew all lands. Brutal.
Good ol' Arena shuffler!
I love comments like this so I can skip watching those games lol
No other game can frustrate me like Magic
The flavor of pippin getting a stern scolding to lose 😂 FOOL OF A TOOK

Probably the critical difference between most streamers and a streamer who is actually good at magic.

Loving having more LSV videos in my life! :D

Thanks for the kind words - I'll try and hover a little longer on each card
I’m so grateful to have regular content from LSV. Good dude with solid vibes.
It seems Hobbit sting would be better than a lash of Balrog
I can’t be the only person who was jebaited into yelling “KEL-a-BORN!!”
@@AstaraBrightwing My favorite was when he called Sauron Sorin. Made me do a double take

Am I the only one yelling Teleporno? (no joke, this is real shit)
@@AstaraBrightwing actually you didn't ruin my fun at all, so all is still good!
Arwen and Smegol: my dream fanfic coupling
I could be wrong (no professional) but elven chorus seems like a busted magic card in a deck like this
Love the content LSV. You won't remember me cuz it was 15 years ago but you stopped by my game store when I was just getting into magic. Told me to stop over extending my white weenie deck into sweepers. 😂
If LSV cant make the food deck work I certainly not even gonna try it.
These videos give me life.

He is straight up dead to the flier, which will hit for 6 due to the scry from the 1/3, if I‘m not missing anything
There was a sweet half generous ent half lash deck floating around 😂
Splash of the Balrog
I was screaming at my monitor when you passed that Meneldor. I know it's Magical Christmas Land but the card is absurd with Arwen.
Is it just me, or does the art of Arwen, Mortal Queen look a lot like Gaby?
I wanted to write - word for word - the exact same thing!!!!
I woulda windmill slammed Sauron into my deck, but this is why Im not pro.
Can someone help me understand why a 2nd ents fury wasn't good? It seemed good to me but I also know LSV is better than me
If you watched the video, you can see why sorcery speed target your own stuff removal can be really bad. LSV played around the blow out
Man I wish Captain Sissay was in LOTR
In elvish the letter C is pronounced HARD like a K, so Celeborn is pronounced like Keleborn if it was in English.
It's also 'Kirith' Ungol.
Seriously come on the shuffler 15 lands and get screwed. Anyways Thanks so much for making these videos LSV this has been a great schooling ! :D
Looking at these drafts so far right after IPA, it feels like after two boosters of LOTR, you get so many more playables than with all three boosters of IPA. Today's sets just make it way too easy :P
I wouldn't mind a return to fewer playables myself
My experience with Ikoria is that you'd probably want 15 lands and 3 Generous Ents. We'll see how it shakes out.
maybe food is just bad
food shmood

celeborn is pronounced like a K keleborn not sure if anyone cares but that's proper
Engagement
Celeborn is pronounced Keleborn, not Seleborn.
they're made up words it's not that serious
@timelost9705 All words are made up. Not sure why you're getting so angry about nothing.
@@yO-xe3ny Some words are part of a real language, Seleborn is not one of them
@@TIMESLOST Why do you care so much about it then?

Best-of-1 Limited is so yucky :(
!
The Food Deck looks weak. I was 98% behind the draft till I saw the results.
It's definitely weak when it draws land every turn
In terms of lore, this set is beyond stupid.
