I was your 5th round opponent, for the record I was playing jeskai kiki, I have 6 trophies with the deck in the past 2 years. Was running hot in febuaray got 2 trophies after the fury ban which really helped the deck but all of a sudden I went super cold 90 percent of my hands had 1 land so constant mulligans and constantly getting stuck on lands as in my games vs yourself
I was just going through my collection yesterday looking for a missing atraxa in my multi colored section and all the way in the back is a zacama, primal calamity. I stopped to look at it thinking, i remember when this was amulet tech.
Hey man! Love the brews! Your Boros legends deck from 2 months ago always stuck with me and recently i built my own version of the deck (I splashed for lavinia against cascade decks before the violent outburst ban, and am now back to classic boros beatdown). Just wanted to say I love the content and the frequent uploads!
Appreciate it! That deck was from an MTGO user DrPepper…just want to give credit where credit is due. I always tweak and tune the lists, though. I’m glad it struck a chord with you - that deck was a blast! 💥

I always do. My goal is to tell a story. The story of this video is built around Zacama, so it wouldn’t make sense for me to start the gameplay portion of the video with a match that doesn’t have Zacama in it (the spike match). Also, more people will leave the video if you start off a league with a loss as opposed to a win, which is why I’ll typically feature a win in round 1. After setting the stage in match 1, my next goal is to prevent people from dropping off (what TH-cam calls ‘retention’). This is typically most prominent in between matches 1 and 2. This is why I hinted that I played Spike in the intro, and quickly introduced that I was playing against Spike in round 2. After that, the order doesn’t matter as much because most people who will leave have already left, so my goal for the remainder the video is to keep the gameplay punchy and interesting. I’ll cut boring games and matches to further reduce drop off.
This deck is really close to being able to play Zirda as a companion, imagine playing zacama, making 9 mana, spending 6 on zirda, and still having 3+ activations!
I'm a lucky bastard who pulled one from a booster bought with store credit 😛 Although modern do be pricy. Perhaps one day I can play something wild and viable...
Is the deck possible without the ring? I still hope it will get banned and would like to play this without buying them... The deck is straight awesome.

Awesome brew!!! Love to see wild decks!
Thanks Doug! Always appreciate you tuning in!
Could not love your content more man, keep grinding! You should have 10x the subs you have easy
Progress is a process! We will grind on!! 🙌🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼
I love the deck. Amazing. Zacama is extremely powerful.

Ggs. Sometimes I wish I could shuffle for the MTGO shuffler. Feels like 1-landers are a little more frequent than when playing in paper.

My buddy use to play with a build like this was always a fun match used awaken the woods also in it. Thanks for the content ❤

zacama is such a fun card in pioneer lotus field
Completely forgot it was played there!
Nice pun "opponent going on extinct" 😊
These vids are laced with puns if you pay close attention…
Did you catch “Dino-Might”? 🧨
@@Control4Daze haven't ! I'll pay close attention now 🕵️

I love your videos :-). I was wondering, why did you change the order of the matches in the league? For dramatic purposes?
I always do.

@@Control4DazeThank you for the very detailed answer, it makes a lot of sense! Can't wait for the next one :-).
It would be a lot less work to NOT do all of that 😂
This deck is really close to being able to play Zirda as a companion, imagine playing zacama, making 9 mana, spending 6 on zirda, and still having 3+ activations!
That would be crazy…is Zirda legal in Modern?
@@Control4Daze yes! It's banned in legacy because of basalt and grim monolith, which aren't in modern. I'm surprised we don't see more zirda decks!
Yea, I just assumed it was banned. Makes me wonder what’s possible with it 🤔
Wish I had the resources to test something like that irl 😅
I don't own Rings in paper either...its annoying they cost so much!

@@sulevjaaniste5394I have faith you’ll get there!
Bloodsun doesn't seem like it adds much
It allows you to play lotus field and not have to sacrifice any lands…it’s the best way to ramp your mana.
U cooked with this one 🤌
Just stepped out of the kitchen 🍴
FYI... This is a ONE RING deck. Without it... the deck is Toast
Woah…who told you the secret?!? 🤯
@@Control4Dazereported
@@lindzeesouperocd7558 thank u!
I think if the one ring was simply used to enable this jank in the format we should keep it legal
@@loganchristiansen564😂😂😂
Is the deck possible without the ring? I still hope it will get banned and would like to play this without buying them... The deck is straight awesome.
Its definitely much worse without them. You could try playing planeswalkers + board wipes in its place, but it will be an uphill battle!
how do you make video quality of 100k subs while only having 5.6?
Gotta spread the word! 😂
Appreciate the kind words!! 🙏🏼
but.. leyline binding
Archdruid’s Charm answers binding…
if you have 3 mana open you can't even binding it :)
Oh yes, because this is the best way to win when you get to 18 mana... Lol
