Could the Reanimator player activate the two Bazaars with the All Hallow's Eve trigger on stack? That would have given him four more cards in the graveyard, and hopefully some extra creature in there.
That Diamond Valley card looks amazing, isn't it a good counter vs Abyss (if you have only 1 creature, just gain the health), and good for Reanimator too?
@@tomglpn I think most the people in old school bought the cards years ago when they were very cheap compared to today's prices. A small portion are rich. And there are those (like me) who just have a few budget decks to play with friends, and never intend to buy into the expensive cards.
There are some budget friendly decks out there. If I would start from scratch, I would probably focus on a mono coloured deck, like white weenie or suicide blue. Try to get some city of brass from chronicles and take it from there. You can def brew some more budget friendly decks that you’ll have fun with playing. I organized a re-print tourney not too long ago, you can find the decks here, sites.google.com/view/re-printmasters/home
G1 Edo should have activate the Mishra in response to the Preacher activation :) then he could have kept the Bolas, and just smashed Erwin face with it.
Good idea, but I don't think it works to activate a mishra in response to a preacher or old man activation. I found this on a forum: "Note that as you activate Preacher's activated ability, an opponent of yours has to choose a "creature ... they control" that it will target, if possible, right then and there (C.R. 602.2b, 601.2c, 601.5, 115.1, 108.1). That opponent can't choose a Mishra's Factory they control this way unless it's already a creature. In general, while you're casting a spell or activating an ability, no player has priority, so no other player can cast spells or activate abilities, including Mishra's Factory's second ability (C.R. 601.2a-i and 602.2a-b have no priority window until the spell is cast or ability activated; C.R. 115.1a-b)."
@@DanieleBrunazzo I don't know the rules very well. But I've heard 2 others, 1 was a judge for 10+ years, who said this is how the rules work. It could be that activating the preacher doesn't go on the stack.
@@joeb1522 why shouldn’t it go on the stack? 😅 Check the new text for preacher on the Gatherer. Tap as cost to put the ability on the stack. In response I activate Mishra - stack. The last ability resolves first (Mishra). Then the preacher ability resolves and all targets are chosen.
@@seanz1115 4 bazaars and 4 All Hallows Eve would cost at least 10,000. It's insane. I don't know who pays these prices. Even if you were rich and can afford it, I still don't understand. You could buy a new car or buy a handful of cards for a game.
Getting the win while avoiding the Mind Twist is always the classy move. I understand why it exists for black ... wish they would've actually balanced the card. Why not BBBX? Testers somehow thought that was appropriate for Volcanic Eruption.
@@TimmytheSorcerer Good points! It's so funny how symmetrical the "boons" were in Alpha (1 mana for 3 of something) but how asymmetrical some of the cards like Braingeyser, Mind Twist, and Volcanic Eruption ended up. Even BBX for Mind Twist would be a huge difference for us today to match Braingeyser.
@@RichardVeenman Awesome, never seen the card. Interesting that you get to see their hand and select the cards, too, not random. We're talking about the casting cost as it relates to other cards in the set of ABU.
@@TimmytheSorcerer On Erwin I had absolutely no doubts 😁 but as usual, during live tournaments you just take worse decisions from time to time… and Preacher is kind of an unusual card. Actually going to test some Erhnam on Ice soon 😍
"Really interesting game thus far." I mean, if you call take backs on mana tapping, tutoring two cards with Demonic, and an error by somehow not knowing that Nicol has flying then, yeah. Interesting game. Sorry we could not see the transformational sideboard and how Black Vise performed.
Absolutely 👌 The thing with crypt is that it’s a dead sb card against a lot of decks and the 15 slots are quickly filled. If graveyard strategies will pop-up more (for example the popular robot decks also relay partly on their graveyard) I’m sure we’ll see the crypt making a comeback. Would you add it to your sb and how many copies? 🤔
Many mistakes by the Ehrnam on Ice player. For example, should have disenchanted the mox, not the animate dead. would not be able to pay upkeep cost then.
Do U even think about the naming of ICE storm? Not?...OK think about the colour?ICE storm have to be a blue card! Or not?...in Green the Name doesnt match i think?but it IS only a mindstorm...🎉😂

Thank you Green Lotus, appreciate the positivity 🍻🙌
I love the transformational sideboard plan. I have done that before and it really does catch people off guard.
Awesome decks!!
That’s the type of match when there are no Fireballs flying around! ☄️
The transformational sideboard is some sick tech! I've yet to master the at of the regular sideboard. 😂 Beautiful deck.
So glad I found this channel

Fantastic match!
Agreed Marten, that’s also why I decided to post it despite the fact that it’s only one game.
@@TimmytheSorcerer sometimes one game has enough oomph to equal a hundred less inspired ones.
more old school cube content would be great. I love old school cube.
Love these decks, so sick!
Nice Reanimator build!
Edo has a sick collection 🤤
wow what an exciting game!
🙌

Valley is great, also in response to creature removal and great with cards that steal creatures like Preacher.
So are prices for old school stuff as high over there as her in the states?
On average US is a little cheaper. Although it varies per card.
Wow, how can anyone afford to get into old school, I want to but it's too much

@@joeb1522 nonsense, the ability goes on the stack now. In response you can activate without issues. Maybe they was an old ruling 😊

Wish I had the cards to play reanimator! Such a cool archetype
It's too bad the cards to make a solid reanimator deck are so expensive. And so almost no one can try it out (unless using proxies).
@@joeb1522 yup. Not gonna drop $10,000 just to make a deck LOL

Agreed, they could’ve done the same for the blue power. Make Ancestrall UU and a sorcery for example, ah well the charm of the old game 🤷♂️
