59:37 What I would have done in this situation was bouncing my own rimrock, recast the adventure on champion, kill hero of iroas and replayed my grimrock or even salvo if i really want a clean board. Still hits for 4 and gets rid of hero, putting you on the offensive.
I had a draft just today where I picked Chromanticore in a gates deck with sylvan caryatid, a couple district guides to search for gates, and 2 gate summits. Ended up going 7 wins with it. Had a couple games where I won by Bestowing Chromanticore on a Nessian Asp with monstrosity paid. Great fun. From what I've seen the gates deck doesn't seem to be too bad.
FYI, I think it's the Izzet mainland that's the infinite combo card with that 4 cost artifact creature that gets +1/+1 whenever you activate an ability,
I was the playing the r/w deck that forgot about the dragon mantel. Very embarrassing I didn't even realize until I watched it back here lol. Good game!
Sire of Insanity is good? I could see it being somewhat decent in a deck that has a low curve versus a control deck, but it seems highly mid to me. Kind of bad even. What am I missing?
If you play Sire of Insanity on turn 6, unless they have instant speed removal for a 6/4 they immediately lose all of their potential answers and are living off the top deck. If you were on the play they don't get to cast their 6 drops. Usually players still have a few excess cards in hand on turn 6, you don't mind discarding your hand because you can plan knowing it's coming and you get a 6/4.
@andrewkuhn6796 Yeah, that still doesn't sound great though because you are also living off the top deck and a 6 mana 6/4 is pretty weak. I could see it being okay if your entire deck is 2-3 mana cards that you can empty by the time you draw Sire, but I doubt this card ends up with a good win percentage.
I like that Numot was surprised by Liliana being in the format, when she's on the screen between every round 😅
Not to mention that there are 2 Lilies on this one!

Exactly what I was thinking! Plus you get the value from champion
Yep, thought the exact same...seemed obvious to me?

Insane brain dude. Crazy how often you’re right when you say “oh they have x”
How do you build your deck for that sire of insanity? I had two in a sealed pool but ignored it because I didn’t get it.
Izzet possible?!
Rebound, I remember there also being a two mana white combat trick
That hero of Irois used to be a rare too.
In Dota, it is pronounced "eye-dough-lon", but I believe you are correct.
Anchor is really cool; I always forget it’s only 3 mana.

There was a chance for glory with Crackdown Construct!
I believe you should have been orhzov in this draft…
Izzet ? It is !
In before the bots.
Tubers assemble
Searched a little too long for that Maze's End deck, so I thought I'd share the link:

My first game of pioneers i went 7-1 with a golgari deck with dictate of erebos and the return to hand skeleton and extort 😮
Did you make the how’s my dictate joke every time you played it
