If you went 33% with 36 Sheoldreds, that means each one adds 0.91% win percentage. This means if you had played 109 Sheoldreds instead then your win rate would be 99.9%

Alright, well results are in. I may be off 1 or 2 Sheoldred's but I got what I believe to be the correct count. 34 Sheoldred's were said during the intro alone. 250 Sheoldreds were said throughout the rest of the video which included : Sheoldred'd = 4 times, Sheoldreding = 2 times, Sheoldredie = 1 time and 2 times where he said most of Sheoldred's name but didn't finish it.....Hope that helps lol
I strongly feel that Urabrask Heretic preator should be played more just due to that fact that it kinda turns off Shelodred. It gives card advantage without taking extra damage, and turns off their first draw meaning they cant just sit and gain life.
The problem you run into is simply “Why not just play Sheoldred instead?” Does it turn Sheoldred off? Yeah. But for 1 less mana you could instead play Sheoldred, get all of Sheoldred’s value, and as an added bonus… A Sheoldred on your side cancels out their Sheoldred (As every time they draw they gain 2 and lose 2, leaving a net 0 for each card drawn). So not only does the card have insane value… It’s also one of the best counters to itself. Hence why it’s become so prominent
Technically, sheoldred is just the womanly torso and head at the top. The big body is some huge beast she's commandeered, which is why she's looking a bit different after each planeswalk. I personally liked the original huge mouth one on Whispering One best, but this one is definitely something centipedeuos. Terrifying what skitters around dominaria.
I feel like this might work better with Ratadrabik and Blade of Shared Souls. Also, adding the MoM Sheoldred would be fun, because that's a Sheoldred that can get back many other Sheoldreds.
My board full of sheoldred deck used Vesuvan Duplimancy and a whole lot of single and 2 mana protection spells to crap out sheoldreds. Less reliable because it was made a couple a sets ago, but it was fun when it worked. My record was 12 sheoldreds on the field at once.
It's most often best of three, but I've been playing more best of one when it fits the deck. In this case I didn't really want to sideboard because it would mean taking out Sheoldreds for non-Sheoldreds, so it seemed to work against the theme of the deck.
That's definitely an early scoop @8:54. It's not looking good by any stretch but could either beseech out a sheoldred or ludovic + candy grapple to take out the big druid with sheoldred on the way next turn (provided you topdeck another land).
Yesterday i got to have 4 attacking copies of Sheoldred (the one that transforms) on board in standard brawl thanks to The Apprentice’s Folly + Reflection of Kiki-Jiki
If I had a coin for each time agains the odds made a deck wich more than half the deck was made to copy a 4 mana 4/5 creature with black on its mana cost I'd have at least 2 coins Which isn't much, but it's weird that it happened twice
But then you'd have to play Historic for Howling Mine. And if you're playing Howling Mine, you might as well play Bowmaster, and One Ring, and then you're not really Against the Odds anymore, you're just playing the same Historic deck everyone else is playing.
8:55 is Beseech sacrificing Irencrag to bargain putting another Sheoldred in play not good enough here for some reason? Seems good enough to try at least
I love when Sheoldred says it's Sheoldred time and starts sheoldring everywhere. Also, i think if we got a cycle of that power level it could've fun but with only black getting the card...
i can't remember how, but i played against a deck in standard months ago where the opponent made token copies of sheoldred, so they had 3 sheoldred's on the battlefield at once. I lost that match
So i was walking down the sheoldred, when i seen a sheoldred sitting over by a sheoldred. So i sheoldred'ed the sheoldred into my sheoldred. I quickly sheoldred to my sheoldred so i could sheoldred the sheoldred to my sheoldred.
Yeah this oen is a bit more of a stretch than 36 rhinos, that said it is also got to contend with The End. which makes me wonder if the "stretch" part is an upside or a downside?
When you think about it, Sheoldred is basically just 2023 Siege Rhino, 4 mana 4/5, but now comes with a keyword, can win the game on its own, and is monocolour.
Seth playing a deck that's just a ton of ways to take advantage of the immense power level of a black 4/5 for 4 with a textbox full of upside that's dominated standard? I remember this one!
Love when Seth uses against the odds in a joking fashion like the jund deck he played using all the guesses people had about how bad cards like K Command or Lili would be. Lol
Thats what I have been saying, Sheoldred's strength in standard is the Evoluted Sleeper and the Graveyard guy, sorry I don't know the english names. Thats usually what makes Sheoldred scary: Too much threats to kill
add mirror box and looter can become a flying copy of shelodred after you loot her and you can have an army of flying shelodred. invasion of amonket is ok, but Blade of Shared Souls is better. you dont have to flop it. also, see double could help if you wanted to drop red to be just dimir.
I don't understand the comments acting like Sheoldred is the modern Siege Rhino, when very frequently you ran into the exact problem that Siege Rhino elegantly avoids: being Legendary. It wasn't Siege Rhino that was so back-breaking, it was the SECOND Siege Rhino that immediately followed it. Needing to jump through the hoop of Mirror Box (or play a card as underwhelming as Apprentice's Folly) just to kinda mimic that effect is, as we can see, not nearly as effective. Also, this deck wants to bargain a lot, but doesn't seem to have the capacity to reliably make sac fodder.
A group of Sheoldreds should be called a standard
I think since Sheoldred is the most played card in every available digital format, it should be called an Arena of Sheoldreds.

That's something I realized the day before this came out.
Except Sheoldred is way more splashable than Rhino was.
Yeah but Sheoldred is power crept by having repeatable life swinging effects over a ETB

I got 257 and though I may have missed some. I did not count different types but, I did count per each match
I’m glad someone was finally able to make sheoldred good, it is really underplayed
Hahahaha
We need an official count on how many times Seth says Sheoldred in this
I was just thinking this please someone
Based on the transcript I'm thinking 202 times, but it's not very reliable.
I strongly feel that Urabrask Heretic preator should be played more just due to that fact that it kinda turns off Shelodred. It gives card advantage without taking extra damage, and turns off their first draw meaning they cant just sit and gain life.
Also good in Rakdos with stuff like Hopeless Nightmare
Your hand is gone and not coming back
Also take 2 lol
Why would you run a 5-drop that dies to Sheoldred when you could instead just run Sheoldred?
The problem you run into is simply “Why not just play Sheoldred instead?”
Does it turn Sheoldred off? Yeah. But for 1 less mana you could instead play Sheoldred, get all of Sheoldred’s value, and as an added bonus… A Sheoldred on your side cancels out their Sheoldred (As every time they draw they gain 2 and lose 2, leaving a net 0 for each card drawn).

take a shot every time seth says sheoldred
I love that Seth answered WoTC latest revitalizing standard anouncement with a deck of 36 sheoldreds and actualy wins so much XD
As sheoldred seems to be based on a centipede I would say a swarm. I also like pod and crush

Is against the odds always best of one? Would’ve liked to see how this plan does with sideboarding

AGAIN?!
Why scoop so early here 8:52 ? You could have beseached the irencrag to get Sheoldred and lasted another turn
Finally, the turbo fog counter we needed
Gonna go out on a limb and assume oven_lover is the one person in the world who actually enjoyed playing cat + oven last Eldraine
Clearly we need 36 Sheoldreds vs 34 Siege Rhinos
“Wait… it’s all Sheoldred?”
“Always was.”
What if Siege Rhino was on pcp? was the design notes for Sheoldred.
That's definitely an early scoop @8:54. It's not looking good by any stretch but could either beseech out a sheoldred or ludovic + candy grapple to take out the big druid with sheoldred on the way next turn (provided you topdeck another land).
Either way he still dies the next turn???

This is where howling mine would be a godsend.
But then you'd have to play Historic for Howling Mine. And if you're playing Howling Mine, you might as well play Bowmaster, and One Ring, and then you're not really Against the Odds anymore, you're just playing the same Historic deck everyone else is playing.

I love a good "oops! all X" meme deck, and this all Sheoldred deck sure looks interesting.
then we play 4 lightningbolt, because they deal dmg. so basicly a sheoldred XD Great video seth!
When you think about it, Sheoldred is basically just 2023 Siege Rhino, 4 mana 4/5, but now comes with a keyword, can win the game on its own, and is monocolour.
Siege Rhino had a keyword! It had Trample.
Another great episode brother Set but I prefer a Elesh Norn deck. Too bad you never made a video with a deck that has 4 of them.
Your intro was (probably} unintentionally hilarious.
Someone should make a version of this video where it gets more distorted whenever he says sheoldred
Sheoldred is the card I'm currently most tired of seeing on the battlefield
Now he needs to do it in historic or any other format to keep cloning sheoldreds
Seth has finally lost it
Seth's audio isn't synced/live (behind the card previews)
Yeah, I noticed.
Seth playing a deck that's just a ton of ways to take advantage of the immense power level of a black 4/5 for 4 with a textbox full of upside that's dominated standard? I remember this one!
I played this deck and managed to run into the only person running Vesuvan Duplimancy and Croaking Counterpart. Arena doesn't even let me have fun.
The new card The End seems like a pretty good card against this deck 😅
with him he managed to have 2 the irengrag on the battlefield at the same time without have mirror?
If you play a legend and turn it into an equipment it has a different name so you can have one in equipment mode and one in mana rock mode.
