Dev himself is almost the sole reason I watch these videos. There’s so many other channels I could go to if I wanted someone to just layout their opinion about a set, but not a single one of them gives me the feeling of having a conversation and nerding out about magic with a buddy like dev’s channel does.
I just wanted to tell you that I have been a fan of your channel for years. I have always appreciated your positive attitude and your amazing content! Thank you for everything you do on and off the camera. Thank you for being such an inspiration to the magic community!!
Dev, great solo at the end and we watch because we like the way you bring yourself to the content and your perspectives. We have hundreds of places on TH-cam alone to find this kind of stuff, but we like you and the way you do it. No need to apologise, but we know that's just your nature that we've seen you start to grow out of for not apologizing for some stuff. Good on ya bud
Thanks Dev! I'm almost done watching the whole set review, but I'll jump ahead to this. This was a brilliant spoiler season - very much appreciated. Your general positive attitude in these videos is infectious, and I really appreciate the humour, references and puns you slip in. Great content as always - and I am REALLY excited about this set, so much more so than the last two.
@@Mr33chris33 I’m from Richmond, live in greenfield. My wife has a lot of family in Terra Haute. She also sees patients at Union Hospital, so I drive her there every other week.
Great video! Eater of Virtue is definitely a powerful card, but note that in your example, the Eyetwitch will be exiled so won’t get its own Learn trigger. EDIT: Oops, you DO get the Eyetwitch trigger, see comment replies below. Thanks for clarifying, Luca.
@@lucapicascia3836 Ah, you’re right. They’re both triggered abilities, so they both go on the stack. I don’t imagine in what order you put the triggers matters?
@@MegaTrain pretty sure that's not important, this just looks like a pretty good Bonesplitter with some really fantastic weeb art and that's enough to lure me in.
i completely agree on the wandering emperor, and with how few people have it in their top 10 lists, you should have also included it in your sleeper video. this card will kick ass
Have been a follower for a while; really enjoy your videos! Recently quit MTG and sold my stuff; but I'll keep watching you brother! You are really great, your videos remind me of talking to a friend about MTG. Keep doing a great job!~
So charismatic and fun to listen to and be around, how can we stand to be with you week after week? You're a charming and great human who is genuinely funny insightful and kind. Thank you for the work you do.
100% with you on Wandering Emperor. I think it, along with the red Invoke card, are the two Neon Dynasty cards most likely to get banned at some point. It may end up not being great, but if it finds the right deck, it could be format-warping.
I can't say I agree with most of this list but I can tell you had fun making the vid so I'm happy for ya. There are some exceptionally powerful cards getting ignored by many players/creators; several of the march cycle are powerful especially red, Generous Visitor is nuts, The Modern Age is a ludicrous card potentially for multiple formats, The Kami War is exceptional to cast multiple times in standard and is going to be pretty easy to cast with cards like the innistrad lands and The World Tree. Farewell is going to be a standard staple until it rotates. Some other standouts not getting enough attention, in no particular order: Thundering Raiju, Fable of the Mirror-Breaker (just the first chapter is great), Tatsunari, Mirrorshell Crab, and Circuit Mender. I am personally pretty high on Mukotai Soulripper and Mindlink Mech as well but those could go either way, I just like very aggressively statted vehicles.
I'm from a hicktown bro! It's peaceful and friendly round these parts. There's lots to love about a simple town. And we like magic! By the way, I lost my daddy a couple weeks ago, and you and a few of my other favorite TH-cam guys have really helped me in this now lonely house. Can't thank you enough for the work. Would love to meet you someday. Much love dev!!!👊
Dev, I am A) Old and B) spent a lot of my life in a hick town(in Georgia). So i do get when you reference both Vanilla Ice and Brooks n Dunn in the same sentence. I also love you for it.
🎶When the sun goes down on my side of town 🎶That lonesome feeling comes to my door 🎶And the whole world turns blue - Me, playing in most pods these days.
I can’t say that any other mtg content creator makes me authentically laugh like you Dev. It’s as if we’re just kickin it drinkin beer talkin magic. Your content is amazing and I hope you never stop. You brighten my day every time
that serenade at the end.... totally worth watching for alone! But the comedy, the insight,... I mean if you started dancing... you'd be a 1 man entertaining machine! 😄Keep being awesome!
I like your stance on "it's there, I can't not make it" regarding puns and jokes - I have the same quirk, sometimes when I don't feel like saying whole bunch of words I just go "the obvious joke here" in a middle of conversation😅 and move on. Also, you seem to have a lot more of small things like forgetting numbers or tiny detours into different topics recently and I like that, it makes your videos have even more of "like talking to a bud about mutual activity" vibe
Neon moon took me back to my childhood living with my aunt. She would have parties every weekend, and they would blast all of that genre of music in the mid 2000’s era. So my Alabama self got that reference all day long
as a subscriber since the beginning, the single most impactful suggestion I feel I can give to your channel is: STOP APOLOGIZING FOR YOUR JOKES DEV we love them. own them. don't break the flow saying sorry, you're awesome!
This set is going to be epic I feel like. If not in the Standard format, definitely in the other formats these cards are going to shine. Thanks as always Dev! Love your videos man! We appreciate all you do!
When the sun goes down on my side of town That lonesome feeling comes to my door And the whole world turns blue There's a rundown bar 'cross the railroad tracks I got a table for two way in the back Where I sit alone and think of losing you I spend most every night Beneath the light Of a neon moon Now if you lose your one and only There's always room here for the lonely To watch your broken dreams Dance in and out of the beams Of a neon moon I think of two young lovers running wild and free I close my eyes and sometimes see You in the shadows of this smoke-filled room No telling how many tears I've sat here and cried Or how many lies that I've lied Telling my poor heart she'll come back someday Oh, but I'll be alright As long as there's light From a neon moon Oh, if you lose your one and only There's always room here for the lonely To watch your broken dreams Dance in and out of the beams Of a neon moon Jukebox plays on, drink by drink And the words of every sad song seem to say what I think And its hurt inside of me, ain't never gonna end Oh, but I'll be alright As long as there's light From a neon moon Oh, if you lose your one and only There's always room here for the lonely To watch your broken dreams Dance in and out of the beams Of a neon moon Come watch your broken dreams Dance in and out of the beams Of a neon moon Oh, watch your broken dreams Dance in and out of the beams Of a neon moon
Hinata is a legendary creature in Chinese mythology, later Japanese mythology, called a Qilin. (chee-leen) which is known for walking on little hovering clouds because it is too pure to walk on the Earth. The pokemon suicune is based off it. They are known to portend to events so this kinda fits imo
Hey dev twitch notifications have been weird I appreciated the twitter notifications when your going on stream. Favorite mtg content creator. Commenting for the algorithm
I think my favorite thing about this video is it being centered on standard. I feel like the magic community and WOTC has over focused on commander so this was actually refreshing.
I watch these videos every. Single. Set. even though I don't play Magic every single set. Dev is that good and he gets me excited to come back in and try things out every time. Wizards should be paying him dollars. Also, I love the alt art cards from Japanese artists. I want them.
Was too busy noticing Ziggy making eye contact with the camera to get the reference at the start. It's like he knew we were watching, that's a good cat!
Yeah, those lands are gonna be busted in a lot of decks. I like the ninja planeswalker too. Can't wait for the official set release. Great vocals at the end to man.
Gloomshrieker + Biting Palm Ninja are just so incredibly obnoxious together. You swing in with the Shrieker, which has menace, bounce it back to hand to ninjutsu the Ninja in, then trade off the ninja as a blocker to put it into the graveyard, only to be brought back to hand by the next Shrieker. It fits directly into a Golgari control shell and I've made a number of people very unhappy over the last few hours with that combo.
Reckoner Bankbuster is sleeper in this set. It seems like Charge counter is coming back in future, imagine if you can keep put one Charge counter on it, and activate it, you are getting 1 draw, 1 treasure and 1 pilot for 2 mana.
I feel like the black invoke is kinda being slept on, it's 5 mana for +2 card advantage that can either be in the form of 3 removals, 3 shock+draws, or a mix of those

There’s so many other channels I could go to if I wanted someone to just layout their opinion about a set, but not a single one of them gives me the feeling of having a conversation and nerding out about magic with a buddy like dev’s channel does.
How original 🙄
And the cats
I feel the same wayyy
He's Dev from the place, he's a magic man.
This guy brings me back to such a happy time when I first started magic in 07. He is a combination of all the people I played with. Sub 4 life.
I just wanted to tell you that I have been a fan of your channel for years. I have always appreciated your positive attitude and your amazing content! Thank you for everything you do on and off the camera. Thank you for being such an inspiration to the magic community!!
We need more Brooks and Dunn references on TH-cam. Never enough! Great video, thanks Dev

Thanks for the great content Dev. Small town boy from Indiana feeling like a “Brand New Man” and I could “Boot Scoot and Boogy” with this set.
I’m also from Indiana!!! Terre Haute here.
@@Mr33chris33 I’m from Richmond, live in greenfield. My wife has a lot of family in Terra Haute. She also sees patients at Union Hospital, so I drive her there every other week.
Went to the comments expecting 'some room here for the lonely', but glad to be wrong!
hey i am the artist that made hotshot mechanic, i love your channel keep up the great work
Great video! Eater of Virtue is definitely a powerful card, but note that in your example, the Eyetwitch will be exiled so won’t get its own Learn trigger.
EDIT: Oops, you DO get the Eyetwitch trigger, see comment replies below. Thanks for clarifying, Luca.
You do get the trigger! It's not a replacement effect, the creature dies and THEN it gets exiled, that's pretty cool

Neon moon from Brooks and Dunn is a classic Dev.
I'm just getting back into MtG after an almost 10 year break and I have to say this is super helpful. Thanks for the review!
I can see Eater of Virtue in Rakdos Treason decks. Take their largest creature, equip, swing, sacrifice it and get it's abilities
that serenade at the end.... totally worth watching for alone! But the comedy, the insight,... I mean if you started dancing... you'd be a 1 man entertaining machine! 😄Keep being awesome!
Sick little musical number at the end, dude! Your range of talents is impressive.
Bro! I didn't expect the Brooks & Dunn reference! Brought me back to my small town days...
I like your stance on "it's there, I can't not make it" regarding puns and jokes - I have the same quirk, sometimes when I don't feel like saying whole bunch of words I just go "the obvious joke here" in a middle of conversation😅 and move on.

For decks, I'm starting with selesnya enchantments. Then Dimir ninja and possibly a izet artifacts.
Happiest cat I’ve seen in first minute of the video. Good work bud!
Neon moon took me back to my childhood living with my aunt. She would have parties every weekend, and they would blast all of that genre of music in the mid 2000’s era. So my Alabama self got that reference all day long
0:30 Brooks & Dunn Neon Moon reference, Dev! You and Ziggy are both cultured gentlemen with very fine taste in music!
PS. I am both old and from a hick town!
Got dumped today Dev, and as always your content gives me solace in hard times. Glad you're still with us.
My condolences, stranger.
i went through a divorce a couple months ago and the sbmtg positivity is infectious
Best performance since the shadows/vampire intro!! Great picks, looking forward to the brews
Great video as always, thanks Dev!
as a subscriber since the beginning, the single most impactful suggestion I feel I can give to your channel is: STOP APOLOGIZING FOR YOUR JOKES DEV
we love them. own them. don't break the flow saying sorry, you're awesome!
This is the video I needed for morning commute! Thanks Dev! Nice “back in the day” riff too, haha
Really needed some kindness and love today. Thanks Dev.
So many of your picks were spot on... Well done!
I love the game flow of this wonderful deck.
Dev this may be one of my favorite videos. You had me busting the entire way! Keep taking the joke that is directly infront of you!
Wanted to say hi from sweden, love your videos!! Awesome that this was out before the prerelease kicks off
When the sun goes down on my side of town is when you decide to upload this, pretty decent timingn
The Kami War? Bro come on. That card is game over. Easy to cast seeing how easy it is to create treasure tokens in this set, esp in standard.
Thanks dev, my favorite time in mtg is your reviews/top lists!
Reckoner Bunkbuster has been an absolute bomb in limited for me, glad to see it in your top ten!
This set is going to be epic I feel like. If not in the Standard format, definitely in the other formats these cards are going to shine. Thanks as always Dev! Love your videos man! We appreciate all you do!
I can't unhear Dev's interpretation of "Shigeki." Thanks, Dev.
damn i did not expect to shed man tears at the end, that was beautiful man - and is also kinda a joke that was right in front of you haha
I didn't know you played guitar! That was great. You keep finding new ways to surprise me Dev.
Dude your shows are something I always look forward too. 🤣 thanks Dev
When the sun goes down on my side of town
That lonesome feeling comes to my door
And the whole world turns blue
There's a rundown bar 'cross the railroad tracks
I got a table for two way in the back
Where I sit alone and think of losing you
I spend most every night
Beneath the light
Of a neon moon
Now if you lose your one and only
There's always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
I think of two young lovers running wild and free
I close my eyes and sometimes see
You in the shadows of this smoke-filled room
No telling how many tears I've sat here and cried
Or how many lies that I've lied
Telling my poor heart she'll come back someday
Oh, but I'll be alright
As long as there's light
From a neon moon
Oh, if you lose your one and only
There's always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
Jukebox plays on, drink by drink
And the words of every sad song seem to say what I think
And its hurt inside of me, ain't never gonna end
Oh, but I'll be alright
As long as there's light
From a neon moon
Oh, if you lose your one and only
There's always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
Come watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
Oh, watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
Great. You did it Dev! Now I just want to build a Shigeki deck just so I can say his name everytime I want to play my Shigeki deck!
I definitely caught the Brooks and Dunn... and the Vanilla Ice. You're looking well, btw.
Back in the day - Ahmad, and Neon Moon - Brooks n Dunn
that joke was literally for me, thank you
Dude I absolutely love you. You have such a great spirit and make me feel better about everything.
Glad to see that you are feeling better

The ending with the guitar MUST happen again dev, love you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️💯👌🏼

Wow, a Vanilla Ice and Brooks and Dunn reference in the same sentence.....subbed.
Damn that outro, man. Love you always!
I'm both old and from a hick town so yes I'm familiar with the Brooks and Dunn song Love your videos!! Keep healthy Dev!!! Stay Golden pony-boy
Dev you and your videos always make me smile. Keep at it! Cheers 🥂
Lion Sash is going to dominate with how graveyard orientated the meta may be
does automated artificer make blood tokens good now?
I appreciate your top choices from this set.
Lol. I actually liked the breaking-the-4th-wall, turn-around-at-the-editing-table thing.
17:00 that was awesome reminds me of a power ranger's villain
I prefer listening to you talk about magic as opposed to anyone else on TH-cam
Good day Dev, glad to see a new video of you sir, good luck on all your projects!
Yeah, those lands are gonna be busted in a lot of decks. I like the ninja planeswalker too. Can't wait for the official set release. Great vocals at the end to man.
Brooks & Dunn. I was singing that in my head while opening my packs today.
Dude I hope we get more singing/guitar outros that was super nice!
Ziggy is so good!
That neon moon Brooks and Dunn reference was A1.
Goro-Goro sing song and Ziggy looking up thinking "now that's it, he's finally gone mental" :))

New to the channel. Loving content and the cat lol. Thanks man
The ending to this video…. *Chefs kiss*
As a properly aged gentleman who grew up on Lake Desolation road at the foot of Mount Desolation in New York; These references get me.
"Old" person from a hick town here, Brooks & Funny reference was top notch.
Dev is the best MtG content creator ever!
S-Tier puns today!
This was fun. Your best video so far.
Good guitar playing Dev!
That damn Brooks & Dunn nod gave me nostalgia whiplash, man 🤣
The reference is Neon Moon by Brooks and Dunn. Great reference sir
I cannot wait for Colossal Sky Turtal! Bant channel control is gonna be lit and maybe even budget friendly
Reckoner Bankbuster is sleeper in this set. It seems like Charge counter is coming back in future, imagine if you can keep put one Charge counter on it, and activate it, you are getting 1 draw, 1 treasure and 1 pilot for 2 mana.
Hey Dev, you have been playing for a long time. Is a vehicle just banding simplified?
Awesome outro! 🤩
Hey dev, thank you for all the amazing videos for this set
Any cool deck ideas for day one?
You're right. Standard is a good home for the white one. Very justified reasoning given.
much love dev great video as always
22:52 Best Dev moment in the video
Love the content Dev!!
I feel like the black invoke is kinda being slept on, it's 5 mana for +2 card advantage that can either be in the form of 3 removals, 3 shock+draws, or a mix of those
Hey! I have an Aunt Tami too! I also go into a fight with her for Christmas. It's the gift that keeps on giving.
