You have found the true master in Dev. He doesn't just give you Net Decks or Jank; instead, he gives you ideas, thoughts, and suggestions, all of which make you a better Magic player.
Not only was this released on my birthday but its one of the best videos you've ever put out. Your witty charm mixed with your deep analysis makes for a great combination. Your channel has exploded ever since spoiler season and I think you are on the road to becoming one of the best MTG youtubers out there right now. Good luck to your channel in the future, and thanks for the laughs as always.
Love the double deck-tech idea. Budget decks is one thing I've always loved about your channel, but with Arena it's great to see your builds for highly competitive decks.
Turn 1: forest, grazer, etb trigger put island Turn 2: use neoform, sac grazer, search for incubation druid, etb with +1/+1, land drop Turn 3: land drop, have 7 mana available
Bioessence Hydra is very underrated IMO. It consistently hits the battlefield for me at least 11/11 and last game it was 23/23 the turn it dropped. (Kiora with 7 loyalty, Vivien with 7 loyalty, + dropped a pollenbright to proliferate for another +5/+5).
First of all, congrats for your channel! Now, here is a rather raw idea i had for a superfriends-ish control-ish deck. How about, Bolas+ elderspell--> ulti bolas for a cheap win. With a good setup you could ulti bolas the same turn (or the very next) that you cast him. (I haven't thought of the details yet - i'm rather crap at making multicolored decks.)
DEV! Big fan of the channel, been watching for a couple of years, especially fond of the double deck techs. Keep up the great work! I have a deck for you that's super budget and has been putting up amazing results on MTGA (unranked, admittedly). Low to the ground, with a beefy top end, serious resiliency against removal and sweepers, puts pressure on life totals and has a wealth of intricate lines of play. You should take a real look at this deck, my wizard! 4 Gutterbones (1) 4 Dreadmalkin (1) 4 Reassembling Skeleton (2) 2 Dreadhorde Invasion (2) 4 Lazotep Reaver (2) 2 Vizier of the Scorpion (3) 4 Death Baron (3) 2 Midnight Reaper (3) 3 Vraskas Contempt (4) 3 Angrath, Captain of Chaos (4) 2 Gruesome Menagerie (5) 2 Open the Graves (5) 2 Liliana, Dreadhorde General (6) 22 Swamp
I'd give this two thumbs up if I could just for the planeswalker dance. And the decks are pretty awesome as well. I'd play either of these decks and expect to do well, and have fun, with them. Thanks, Dev!
I need to be able to like this video more than once. It needs likes for the MTG content, likes for the jokes, likes for Dev being Dev, likes for the additional deck tech, and likes for the cats.
Awesome decks dev love the plainswalkers party intro freaking hilarious. I made a Bolas Dragon God super villains deck, I think you should try and make one for your next tech video. I would like to see who you would build yours.
When it comes to tapped lands and evolving wilds, i tend to prefer a 3x 3x split, because you generally don't want to be held back on the mana, while at the same time you can sort of 'always' find a turn to play one without it mattering to much… ONE that is … so by going 3/3 split on the Gate/Wilds you still have the benefit of the fixing in a budget deck, while still limiting the amount of lands that come into play tapped… like i tried 4/4 splits, but those tend to present 2 tapped lands to often … so i prefer to keep these to 6 maximum. Also because if you actually play pre-releases and open up packs, or buy some product every now and then (EDH deck), it's not uncommon to at least have 1 of each of the current regular duals (or on arena), which means you can play 8 dual sources (and i say this also because having one of these regular duals is enough to also play them in an EDH deck, which (to me) sort of validates spending a bit more on just 1 copy of these.
I made Mardu walkers because I've opened 3 Sarkhans and 2 Lilianas on arena. I run a ton of removal and the Kaya/Ashiok pairing, as well as Chandra and The Wanderer with Command the Dreadhorde as fun combo as well.
Great decks and awesome video, i think that was the first time i saw you dance. lol! can you make a list or link of all your decks that ranked 68+ that can be played in standard? that'd be awesome sir! thank you and keep it up!
I've been brewing a UB super friends deck recently. Not sure if I want to win with mill or some damage from davriel + ob nixilus + god pharoah's statue.
So, there is this one sided 'tag team' removal in green, wouldn't mind playing 2 of those in the simic deck (more than enough creatures to make that a thing, i think), but what to CUT ? I would say 1 kasmina and 1 hydra, would you agree ?
I have heard u saying this phrase ''You need X amount of a specific colour of mana to be able to reliably cast it on curve or on a certain turn.'' a lot. Is there a table where i can see the colour sources required to cast certain colour combination spells on specific turns? Thanks in advance
If I understand what you're asking, I think this article by Frank Karsten will help you. www.channelfireball.com/articles/how-many-lands-do-you-need-to-consistently-hit-your-land-drops/
For the Mardu deck, could Hero replace Tithe Taker? Getting a body off a fair number of your planeswalkers and removal to protect your planeswalkers and/or chip in for incremental damage.
cool deck! I stay with my Grixis Superfoe deck with Davriel, Sarkhan fireblood, Jace cunning Castaway into Nicy B R and Nicy BDG and Sarkhan Masterless... I sprinkled in 3 Masterminds aquisition to get my Ugin and Bontu out of sidedeck, with some other threads. I'm honestly even proed to have spark double and Amplifier both as a two of in the side, it works so fine, the living meme is competitive as fuck^^
*SPOILER FOR AVENGERS ENDGAME BELOW* There was a beautiful shot in that movie that was begging to be a wallpaper or poster art. It was the wideshot of a silhouetted Captain America staring down Thanos and his entire army. So my question is... Is someone here awesome enough to make that same shot except it's Gideon staring down Bolas, his Eternals and the God-Eternals? That would be the nutter butters, thanks!
the planes-walker dance and burp halfway through were hilarious.
I adjusted the Simic list for "Ravnica constructed" on Arena and it was great fun, thanks!. Recently found this channel and I'm loving the content.
You have found the true master in Dev. He doesn't just give you Net Decks or Jank; instead, he gives you ideas, thoughts, and suggestions, all of which make you a better Magic player.
OMG! That was so corny it was hilarious. Only you can pull that off Dev my dude. 😂
best intro ever
And outro
Dude, seriously. You have one of the best Magic channels I follow. Keep up the great work!
I saw the thumbnail and was like: "I gotta watch this."
I thought the thumbnail was just an accidental gem. I forgot this was dev, so the video was even better than that amazing thumbnail

I enjoy the content but I love your personality and general vibe. Thank you, Dev!
Love the double deck-tech idea. Budget decks is one thing I've always loved about your channel, but with Arena it's great to see your builds for highly competitive decks.
"Narset: PoV is something you google when your parents aren't home." is my new favorite phrase of all time. Thank you Dev!
Turn 1: forest, grazer, etb trigger put island
Turn 2: use neoform, sac grazer, search for incubation druid, etb with +1/+1, land drop
Turn 3: land drop, have 7 mana available
I propose the term "West Coast Avengers decks" for decks that are "Superfriends, but not as good/famous/expensive".
I second this motion
I third this motion!
2 really cool decks plus a dance show.. Just reiterating what I've been saying for years. Best MTG content creator on the interwebs
Been repping this deck on Arena. I don't have proper mana sources yet but this deck does work. Nice deck tech and thanks for all the videos you do!
Double Deck Techs!!!!!!! You Rock Dev!!!!....sniff...sniff, I love you, man...(wipes a tear away)
Thank you dev! I was just in the process of making a simic deck, this helps out a lot.
I've been working on brewing up a simic P dubs deck ever since I saw bio essence Hydra. That art is insane. I love seeing how you build decks.
Whoa..whoa..
Where's the Mox Amber & Mobilized District?
Who are you and what have you done with Dev?!
Thank you for listing how many of each color source is in the mana base. :)
Bioessence Hydra is very underrated IMO. It consistently hits the battlefield for me at least 11/11 and last game it was 23/23 the turn it dropped. (Kiora with 7 loyalty, Vivien with 7 loyalty, + dropped a pollenbright to proliferate for another +5/+5).

4 Gutterbones (1)

4 Lazotep Reaver (2)
2 Vizier of the Scorpion (3)

22 Swamp
I'd give this two thumbs up if I could just for the planeswalker dance. And the decks are pretty awesome as well. I'd play either of these decks and expect to do well, and have fun, with them. Thanks, Dev!
This was super entertaining, and both of these decks look fun to play. Thanks, Dev! You brighten my day e’ry time.
Love the Quailman shirt D! Most kids don’t even know about the show Doug 😂
I need to be able to like this video more than once. It needs likes for the MTG content, likes for the jokes, likes for Dev being Dev, likes for the additional deck tech, and likes for the cats.
Dev you're my favourite person on the whole internets. Heroic work today dude! Those moves
Abzan for Ajani is also really strong with Liliana to proliferate into ultimate
Awesome decks dev love the plainswalkers party intro freaking hilarious. I made a Bolas Dragon God super villains deck, I think you should try and make one for your next tech video. I would like to see who you would build yours.
I like the last music intro, that beat was sick. Love the content bro, keep it coming!
I’m glad me and you both agree on the power of Mardu superfriends
Why not Evolving Wilds in the Simic deck's mana base? 4x boosts you up to 16 each color source and also synergizes with Evolution Sage.
Thanks for this
@@sB-wt7jy NP man. Also now that I think about it.. if you're doing that.. maybe replace a couple of the 5 drops with Tatyova?
@@paulmerritt6285 ya i was already running scapeshift and her in the deck im tuning. Bigg bigg hydras
When it comes to tapped lands and evolving wilds, i tend to prefer a 3x 3x split, because you generally don't want to be held back on the mana, while at the same time you can sort of 'always' find a turn to play one without it mattering to much… ONE that is … so by going 3/3 split on the Gate/Wilds you still have the benefit of the fixing in a budget deck, while still limiting the amount of lands that come into play tapped… like i tried 4/4 splits, but those tend to present 2 tapped lands to often … so i prefer to keep these to 6 maximum.

@@Arghore im running all simic duals lol so the wilds would help me thin my already scapeshifted deck. Its jank but not budget lol
I really enjoyed your planeswalker dance and will be back for more!
This is the greatest thumbnail I've ever seen
Dev for your Budget list can you include a non budget list in the links? It will help us understand what your vision is long term.
man I only comment on youtube to support Dev :) what a great dude
I made Mardu walkers because I've opened 3 Sarkhans and 2 Lilianas on arena. I run a ton of removal and the Kaya/Ashiok pairing, as well as Chandra and The Wanderer with Command the Dreadhorde as fun combo as well.
Gotta say: that intro joke was the best lmao
And the first 1 min is why Dev is the best magic channel
You’ve never had fun with a super friends deck unless you’ve used gideons sacrifice to force your opponent to do lethal on a pumped up Chandra
So nobody has had fun with a Superfriends deck until WotS came out.
"Woke up late this morning..." great choice Dev!!!
I was downloading the pictures to prepare the proxies when you said: Proxy that!
that's what I'll do, I expect so much fun!!!!
THAT - was awesome!!! (Yes im takling about the intro)
Great decks and awesome video, i think that was the first time i saw you dance. lol! can you make a list or link of all your decks that ranked 68+ that can be played in standard? that'd be awesome sir! thank you and keep it up!
Okay okay okay you got me on the narset filthy joke I accidentally laughed at work😂
Finally a superfriends deck I wanna build! It's amazing!
Samut in the Simic deck would allow for some dirty plays with the hydra, Dev.
Glad you cleared up the planeswalker thing. =)
You crack me up. Love the channel. It's the best from my POV.
Ain't no party like a planeswalker partay!
*Aayyy*
Brutal thumbnail, Ledev.
I was building Mardu superfriends last night!
That intro dude... DOOOPE!
I would throw a dollar on stage if I could. Rock on man. Vraska's Contempt is about to spike in price.
Random Man Things I doubt it because its going to rotate soon if anything I see elderspell increasing instead
Great job on the intro dude I’m cracking up!
I've been brewing a UB super friends deck recently. Not sure if I want to win with mill or some damage from davriel + ob nixilus + god pharoah's statue.
I played Golgari superfriends (ish) during the prerelease. It was pretty decent 👍
Decklist? Sounds fun
Could you do an izzet pseudo prowess with Adeliz and Dreadhorde arcanist, with pump spells?
But why would you do pseudo prowess in izzet when you can play real heroic in boros and win, without breaking the bank
So, there is this one sided 'tag team' removal in green, wouldn't mind playing 2 of those in the simic deck (more than enough creatures to make that a thing, i think), but what to CUT ?
I would say 1 kasmina and 1 hydra, would you agree ?
Bruh - that planeswalker party dance was legit
For the budget deck, what about huatli in the side? 3 mana 7 loyalty and even if youre gaining 1-2 life per activation it might help against aggro
I have heard u saying this phrase ''You need X amount of a specific colour of mana to be able to reliably cast it on curve or on a certain turn.'' a lot. Is there a table where i can see the colour sources required to cast certain colour combination spells on specific turns? Thanks in advance

Loving the quailman shirt!
Dev: play lands
Charbelcher player: sheds a tiny tear and packs up his cards
I didn't see heartfire anywhere in the 75. That seems like a one or two of include in a deck like this.
Why no Chamber Sentry or Pelt Collector in the budget deck? They seem to have good synergy.
For the Mardu deck, could Hero replace Tithe Taker? Getting a body off a fair number of your planeswalkers and removal to protect your planeswalkers and/or chip in for incremental damage.
That narset joke actually made me face palm
planeswalker party.... GOD DAMN FUNNY SHIT RIGHT THERE MY WIZARD!
The blue green list should really play evolving wilds as it both increases consistency and triggers evolution sage twice.
WHAT THE FCK! PLANESWALKERS ARE IN WAR?!?!? Dev what happened ?
11/10 thumbnail
And here we witness the sweetest of dude's.
Did you edit out the meow Ziggy made at 12:50 or add in the audio? If it was his meow doing edit it the next time. I bet your wizards would love that.
Dev have you given any thought to playing some of these deck techs on arena
Love your decks!!
Could you try to build Arena-Budget decks sometime? (That are light on rare/mythic but don't care for their prices)
Dev! I was wondering if hwatili would be good paired up with bioesenset (I forget how to spell it) hydra?
Nice one Dev.....cool decks
Kasmina(Jap) jumped from 1.99 to 13.99 in less than a week, I liked her a lot but I never knew she would jump in price like that.
No way!! Foreal?
Wow really, waifu card is expensive, who saw that coming?!
In other news, water is still a liquid!
cool deck!
I stay with my Grixis Superfoe deck with Davriel, Sarkhan fireblood, Jace cunning Castaway into Nicy B R and Nicy BDG and Sarkhan Masterless...
I sprinkled in 3 Masterminds aquisition to get my Ugin and Bontu out of sidedeck, with some other threads. I'm honestly even proed to have spark double and Amplifier both as a two of in the side, it works so fine, the living meme is competitive as fuck^^
Thanks for the work dev
Ive been killing with Mardu draft! I'm excited for it..
*SPOILER FOR AVENGERS ENDGAME BELOW*
There was a beautiful shot in that movie that was begging to be a wallpaper or poster art. It was the wideshot of a silhouetted Captain America staring down Thanos and his entire army. So my question is... Is someone here awesome enough to make that same shot except it's Gideon staring down Bolas, his Eternals and the God-Eternals?
That would be the nutter butters, thanks!
Omg i love the thumbnail lol
"Narset pov, something you searching for when your Parents arent at home" 😂 i search for it now.... Uhmm... For Research purposes😚🎶
The mardu deck looks really sweet
Relatively new to the channel, how does Dev rate the power rating? Is it a program or is it a system?
How would I go about getting a full size print out of the thumbnail? Asking for a friend...
want to see ilusion deck with ugooie. castaway jace, octopus and some kinda win condition
Hey look! Simic that isn't just stompy +1/+1!
Hey, Dev! Thoughts on Angrath in the main?
What was that outro beat that started playing- did you produce that? Can i get a copy of it, that was probably RRR level fire
24:12 Straight outta the Gecko.
You get a like just for the Planeswalker dance party in the beginning
wow, is it allowed to use multiple copies of plane walkers from war of the spark?
Silent82Hill legendary is still one on the battlefield unless you can copy it?
I actually liked the acting in the beginning lol who are u now the professor?
Dev, Why is Interplanar beacon not included in this list out of curiosity?
Epic thumbnail
What you do vs elder spell?
Dovin's Veto, or Negate?
