Bro there just ain’t enough CEDH explanation out there, I freakin love you. I’m gonna recommend these to my friends trying to jump from casual upwards.
Sisay is more staxy and has her unique line of combo. She survives in stax environment. The deck aim for slower game plan. Najeela is faster but more fragile. She goes with Breach and Ad nauseam better than Sisay. (I don't include Breach in my Sisay) It's up to skill of the player though. I'm Sisay player, never have real problem againt Najeela.
I main both. I won a tournament with my sissy deck. They are completely different game style. Like you wouldn’t need to run the breach throacle line in sissy but it’s very viable in najeela. Sissy you really just need a good dockside and boom you can just win. That’s the main difference. Najeela u need to have the pieces available. Or a way to get them. Sissy just need a dockside and boom games over.
Damn fine content. Keep it up. Came back after a little over ten years and jumping into the power levels my friends are at has been hard. So much I don’t know. This sort of content is just what I needed. Subbed

Yeah Im a little confused at the way hes referring to Ad Naus as a win in the same vein as Najeela and Thoracle. Unless I missed something, Naus is a path and a strategy to find a win, not the win in itself. Id like to know what we are expecting to find with Naus if its not Thoracle combo parts
@@Vote4Drizzt I can't speak for him 100%, but you can think of Naus as a win condition/pillar of the deck in that the deck is able to cast an Ad Nauseam and win that turn reliably. Despite being Midrange you have very successful nauses that see a lot of cards and often find you a way to win that turn, whether it be through thoracle or Najeela herself. In that way, in many decks you can think of the card as a one card win condition that will at times cause your gameplan to change.
The problem I see when I play her early is, they try to remove her right away. Like I hate playing her early because she is a target. So we need to look into that. And even if I hold up protection. It’s not enough to stop 2 ppl
I’ve watched this multiple times to try and become a better Najeela player. Is there any way we can get a updated video on the more slanted version of najeela running intuition breach lines?
Thank you for having pongo on! His Najeela lost years ago definitely got my into the format. Haven’t listened yet but wanted to comment. You’re channel has a lot of great content so far Keep it up
I definitely like this as Najeela is my favorite deck to play. I have yet to win a tournament with her though because too many people are scared of her lol
great video thank you. I personally don't really understand how ad nauseum works in the deck. I just kind of don't like it personally, but i'm open to an explanation to help me.
It's really just a way to get so many cards in hand you basically can't lose. If it resolves you'll gain access to so much mana, interaction, combo pieces, and tutors that putting together a win becomes almost guaranteed. This isn't a deck that has to resolve Ad Naus to win, but if you're able to do it with a reasonable life total, it almost always wins you the game.
+1 sub thank you for the great content!!! It's amazing how this is similar to reading the deck's primer but in a video it's more comprehensive and clear, I love pongo and will be watching your other guides keep it up!
Great video, thanks! I have a Najeela list, but it's a bit old, so it's cool having something I can compare it to and hearing what/why that other list is doing what it does.
Yah this is great content every time, for new CEDH players wanting to find a deck, or current players wanting to learn how to better combat their opponents. Thanks for the vids!
I think Pongo's current take on it is that the card is fine to run, just not currently making the list for him. I think it's mostly replaced by Grim Hireling because Hireling 1. Has no land requirements with amounts or colors 2. is a creature itself being harder to counter and being an attacker and 3. having the added flexibility of repeatable removal. Seems like a good addition if you feel you need it though!
Bro there just ain’t enough CEDH explanation out there, I freakin love you. I’m gonna recommend these to my friends trying to jump from casual upwards.
That's exactly what I do it for. Thank you so much! There's more coming every week.
Which is better, Najeela or Sisay 5 color?
They're pretty different decks, but the general consensus is that Najeela is one of the top 3 or so decks in the format, if not number 1.
Sisay is more staxy and has her unique line of combo. She survives in stax environment. The deck aim for slower game plan.
Najeela is faster but more fragile.
She goes with Breach and Ad nauseam better than Sisay. (I don't include Breach in my Sisay)
It's up to skill of the player though.

Thank you! I hope you enjoy your time with cEDH!
Love these guides, really helpful. Do more of the 5 colors ones like Kendrith or even mono color ones like Yisan or Magda.
Thank you so much! Kenrith is coming in the next few weeks or so and I have a couple mono color lists that'll be popping up as well sometime soon.
Now hear me out... what about Scion of the Ur-Dragon?
what about scion of ur dragon what about it 😂.

I actually very recently tried to do this but the player I had in mind couldn't fit it in, it may be something that happens sometime soon though.
Learning from the master himself! Love it.
Only made sense to get the best!

Thanks so much! He was definitely an excellent choice for this and did a fantastic job.
I definitely like this as Najeela is my favorite deck to play. I have yet to win a tournament with her though because too many people are scared of her lol
Thank you! She definitely has a target on her back, but stick with it and I'm sure you'll take one down at some point!
@@LemorasCards that's the plan. I've been playing her for 3 years so far.

Thank ya! Glad to be able to help?
Great starter guide!
Thank ya!
Awesome video! I’d love to see an Elsha or Lonis cEDH video in the future.
Thank you! Elsha should be coming in the next month or so.
Yah this is great content every time, for new CEDH players wanting to find a deck, or current players wanting to learn how to better combat their opponents. Thanks for the vids!
what about Nature's Will?

propably one of the best decks in edh
Definitely a powerhouse!
Been following pongo’s primers for years. Najeela been my favorite since I started playing

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
