"And now good night sweet prince" hahahaha, so satisfying to hear you send Murktide off with that. Love the deck though! Burn and land destruction are two of my favorite things.
Having jegantha as a companion solves the blood Moon problem really well. Also looting it away with kavu has saved me heaps. It's worth downgrading molten rain to stone rain for jegantha
This deck is all over the place. Im an OG player when LD decks were much more simple. Just cause better cards are now available doesnt mean you have to go 3 colors now. If LD goes on the opponent is screw n any beat stick will seal the deal
Given HOW many time you side-boarded in Rest in these games, it feels like the meta game should start main boarding Leyline of the Void (maybe, it isn’t Hogaak levels of oppressiveness). You did sideboard in 2x Rest in 4/5 matches and they hosed the decks they were up against. Serious consideration Phenomenal showing for Daddy’s improved masterpiece!
nah thats definitely just bias for the decks he got matched against - mainboard leyline looks sexy until you get matched against tron, 4c, hammer, burn and titan and go 0-5
I prefer Stone Rain to Molten Rain when running more than one color, but with Bloodbraid Elf that double-red requirement matters much, much less. I need to take my Mardu Land Destruction deck for a spin some more. EDIT: I'd probably go with Leyline of the Void since most of the decks you really want GY removal for, you need it right away rather than turn 2 or 3. Most of the time, if it's that late, they're already set up and you're on the defensive if you haven't just outright lost already.
This is my philosophy in general whenever dredge and/or living end are large parts of the meta game, when there not, I would disagree tho, because 4 is alot of sideboard slots especially for a deck like Zoo that has so many options for it's sideboard.
Thank you so much for this amazing LD deck. The 60 card format is the best place for this and I really appreciate your ingenuity and creativity for this deck. I will cobble together right away..
It is probably worth it to run vindicate instead of/in addition to molten rain in this list. It can hit lands, but it can also hit other problem permanents at the same rate. I also like lightning helix over/with boros charm because the manabase is so painful in the deck.
Daddy, you're back! :D I was afraid you would leave us for a while after your last video with Modern being MH2 now. But I wanted to let you know, that your decks are awesome and just last weekend, I used a 5c Domain deck that was inspired by YOU and went 4th place in a pretty stacked local paper tournament! And best of all, I have beaten Andrea Mengucci TWICE, once in Swiss rounds and once in the Quartetfinals! Thank you, Daddy! This would not have been possible without you!
@@ankulaypoulay60 I've seen that video and commented a bunch on there. It's a bad version of the deck. No Lightning Helix is a bad idea. And the Molten Rains are rather hit or miss, depending on the matchup.
I like the RiP vs leylines since it frees up 2 SB slots. You have lots of opportunities to cascade into them which greatly increases their utility whereas leyline is dead if not in the opener. I think its overall the best choice to be a little softer to living end by stronger vs the field.
I really enjoy how many of these decks have the same base but are customized to attack the meta in different ways. It's a great way to see how small changes can change match ups significantly
Lavinia, Azorius Renegate could also be a great hoser for the meta! She counters any free spells and because it's only in effect for opponents you can still run a pile with cascade! She also hates Tron, since she shuts off early Karns and Ugins so hard!
It's been cool to see the evolution of your 5C Domain deck. But that last match shows Modern is going to continue to be nigh unplayable until those dumb elementals go.
@@cg5380 no, because Ephemerate isn't the enabler for all the bullshit. It's not in every Elemental deck. It would hit 4C Elementals and that's about it.
@@cg5380 too many of the MH cards just offer too much value and if you hit Ephemerate they will just start using Undying Evil. Look at how easy it is to hit all the bonuses with Domain, it would be trivial to splash black between fetches and shocks. The problem is that the cards themselves are busted. They offer too much value and it destroys the tempo of the game. The threats have become so strong that the answers to those threats, are now also threats. It's just stupid. Like if your opponent plays Ragavan that's such a huge threat in itself. A 2 damage clock, that ramps on hit and steals your topdeck. And it can Dash out of an empty field too. If you don't answer it you could potentially lose right there. So how do you answer it? With a maindeckable free removal with a relevant body. Then you have cards like Force of Vigor that pretty much in practice just dunk on sideboard cards. Magic is supposed to be a game about resources and tradeoffs and now you have maindeckable creatures with Legacy-tier spells stapled onto them for free.
@@kaosblatte yeah I was guessing that was how it would be. I played eldrazi and taxes and it felt like no matter how much I threw at people as soon as a single thing stuck it either snowballed advantage or blew up everything I had
I was researching my own 5c domain list when I saw your list posted on goldfish. My first thought was "This is something Magic Aids would play" and then I saw the name and it all clicked.
Try Obscura Charm for a change in that domain build. It's insanely broken against a lot of decks including elementals. The only thing is that you will have to change up the mana base away from savai and indatha and more into Esper and Jund
Long time ponza boi here. I've always wanted to go Naya for some of those torpor orb creatures, that and some boom//bust and the cleansing wildfires. I know you're more of a domain brony and that's cool too.
When it comes to RIP Vs Leyline, since this deck is able to run white (And doesn't need the grave), I'd go with RIP. Leyline is better in in decks unable to run white (Or where you might want to have access to your grave). That being said, I'd probably still go with Relic of Progenitus over both as I'm a fan of the Cantrip (And the ability to play it out T1 under Thoughtseize).
I think you could run Chalice of the void vs 0 drop cascade decks. Generally not very good to cascade into but works as hate vs that deck. Not sure if you want so much of a silver bullet piece but living end seems like a really hard match up.
@@ChainedNBeaten agreed, That was part of the reason I suggested it but with 8 cascade effects I don't think we want to think of bringing it in vs decks that don't run any 0 drops unless as we add them we remove some of the cascade effects.
A random idea for a new card cycle: Retrace plus kicker. Basically, you have a single color cards for one, two, and three mana, which are sorceries with a powerful color appropriate effect. However, if kicked, then it becomes an instant and is exiled. Something like: WW Put two 1/1 solider tokens onto the battlefield Retrace Kicker exile this card This card can be cast at any time.
Leyline of the Void over Rest in Peace also makes your cascades better. OTOH, if you don't find a rest in peace, finding it with cascade can be nice. Since you're not really tuned for cascade I'd try leyline over RIP.
2:51 How could you play the Scion with just 2 lands; the Triome “Swamp, Forest, Island” and the Dragonskull Summit (Swamp and Mountain)? That’s just 4 types.
I keep hoping you'll revisit your Kaalia version of Domain list at some point with Raffine, since it seemed like a good fit demon was the main thing it was missing. Since Raffine and Kavu loot so much and Kaalia cares about dragons, you can also maybe justify a singleton Ebondeath along with more staple graveyard stuff like Bloodghast, which I like just as a flex.
Another fun deck would be cascading inro boomerangs and eye of Nowhere. Cast aethertrade winds and return your agent and BBE. clear the mind to return gy into library.
So peak eruption can be less good in diffent metas. But with so many decks running red it is a stone rain did a fusion dance with molten rain. Ravioli and triomes has almost every deck running red just an idea
Don't you think bolt is bad in this deck? I always put other stuff in its place. The deck has no turn 1 play anyway, and it's such a bummer when you cascade into it. Also, most threats in modern would require more than 1 bolt to be dealt with. Helix is underwhelming as well, but at least it can balance out a bit the fact that your manabase is so painful.
Daddy needs a stone rain. To double up. The rack is ok in modern!? Used to play nevinerals disk pillar tombs discard/land destruction. Worked nuts back when. Strip mine, sink hole, dark ritual, hym to tourach, choking sands/ befoul ect you get it
At first I thought daddy is playing his classic boros. This is really good. It's no meta breaker yet and is using a MM card (Draco) but still really good.
I feel like this deck would benefit from running seasoned pyromancer in combination with mantis rider or in place of it. Thanks for the content papa aids
I like Leyline just cuz it doesn’t get countered if you start with it but then I sometimes end up with them being not able to cast them cuz they are off color
Personally I always go with LOTV because of how fast things have gotten. By turn two the game is almost decided nowadays when playing against graveyard decks.
RIP is probably better than Leyline for this, especially since the deck is, like you said, essentially a burn strategy. Diluting that too much by mulling for a leyline seems risky compared to finding and playing RIP. Just kinda have to accept that the graveyard matchup is gonna be shaky.
Leyline does seem good on paper, but they also have the evoke creature to beat it. I think liiving end is just super good rn, and your mu is so terrible that the leylines arent worth it
"And now good night sweet prince" hahahaha, so satisfying to hear you send Murktide off with that.
Love the deck though! Burn and land destruction are two of my favorite things.
This deck you are playing is ironically weak to Land Destruction and a well timed Blood Moon.
Yes sir one of my fears when playing this deck in paper
*looks in the mirror* Ah, my worst enemy.

You always have a sweet spot for kavu and scion!
Really great showing. Living end is tough. And it is prevalent.
Awesome deck for what the meta is right!
But I would also go for Leyline of the void and put 4 in the sideboard
I just love how many ways you can build this decks. My favorite deck I play in paper

You and Monoblackmagic are the only people I still watch for magic content.
My man's seriously out here running molten rain when there's vindicate in the format
The 2 damage perhaps. I do love spells that target any permanent though.
I think you could run Chalice of the void vs 0 drop cascade decks. Generally not very good to cascade into but works as hate vs that deck. Not sure if you want so much of a silver bullet piece but living end seems like a really hard match up.

A random idea for a new card cycle:
Retrace plus kicker.
Basically, you have a single color cards for one, two, and three mana, which are sorceries with a powerful color appropriate effect. However, if kicked, then it becomes an instant and is exiled.
Something like:
WW
Put two 1/1 solider tokens onto the battlefield
Retrace
Kicker exile this card
This card can be cast at any time.
Neat!
Playing path in your land destruction deck is just hilarious deck building
Ah man love your videos… bringing izzet tempo to my lgs modern night tomorrow! I’m gonna get stomped
Those were some well played games. Living end is nuts
Very nice! Bringing justice to all this Independence Day!
This 5C deck has the greatest character arc of all time
nice video love the different take on land destruction
Hey I made it into a Magic Aids video! I'm Lord_of_Puntlantis. I love the videos with the more competitive tournaments such as these or the challenges
I was just thinking how cool your name was!
@@MagicAids Thank you!
Holy fuck you are subscribed to like 300 channels, how do you even find videos you want to watch?!
Huge fan. FAVORITE DECK YET. Loving the Domain. Are there any other domain cards you are considering?
Wow, a really impressive deck, on first sight I didn't expected such good results
If there's someone that'll save modern from MH2, it's probably you. Keep at it!
I love a deck with land destruction. Hmm? Why yes! Every opponent I play against DOES hate me!
I would love to see the game 1 opponent's list, BG smallpox with loam. Anyone have a list for me?. Also, great content @Magic Aids
Same Here! I've seen some great Legacy Loam Pox decks out there, but not in Modern. Definitely intrigued!
domain again lettttss goooo I love when daddy plays this deck.
Your first opponents username is a class act for sure.
Leyline of the Void over Rest in Peace also makes your cascades better. OTOH, if you don't find a rest in peace, finding it with cascade can be nice. Since you're not really tuned for cascade I'd try leyline over RIP.
2:51 How could you play the Scion with just 2 lands; the Triome “Swamp, Forest, Island” and the Dragonskull Summit (Swamp and Mountain)? That’s just 4 types.
Thats a sacred foundry
I keep hoping you'll revisit your Kaalia version of Domain list at some point with Raffine, since it seemed like a good fit demon was the main thing it was missing. Since Raffine and Kavu loot so much and Kaalia cares about dragons, you can also maybe justify a singleton Ebondeath along with more staple graveyard stuff like Bloodghast, which I like just as a flex.
3 leylines and 1 rest in piece, the odds that you can get an early rest in peace mixed with your odds of starting your hand with a void
4-1 is really good, loved this video!
I'm glad you loved it!
Another fun deck would be cascading inro boomerangs and eye of Nowhere. Cast aethertrade winds and return your agent and BBE. clear the mind to return gy into library.

Bolt is more of a turn 3 play alongside a 2 drop! Although, it does sometimes get boarded out against Amulet titan!
Appreciate the content and anything with draco is a great deck
Living end is a super fair deck 👌
This is awesome! I should build this
Every deck was graveyardcentric, we going back to mainboard Leyline of the Void days?
Good luck trying to help modern. Wizards will probably keep power creeping the format though, so it's quite an uphill battle.
TY DADDY ILYSM 😘 Fun deck goes sideways!
Daddy needs a stone rain. To double up. The rack is ok in modern!? Used to play nevinerals disk pillar tombs discard/land destruction. Worked nuts back when. Strip mine, sink hole, dark ritual, hym to tourach, choking sands/ befoul ect you get it

At first I thought daddy is playing his classic boros. This is really good. It's no meta breaker yet and is using a MM card (Draco) but still really good.
With 16 horizon cards, how could it not be good!? 😉
With 16 horizon cards, how could it not be good!? 😉
Those were great games
This weird 5c bastardization of Ponza, Money Pile, and Cascade fucked me up- but it performed WAY better than I thought it would
Finally some wholesome mld ( :
Imagine MTG actually promoting this guy vs getting mad at his magic aids name. Great deck as always!
I had to double check the date this video was released. As the first match was 8 rack and the 2nd was hollow one lol
Good run! So close.
Awesome job!!
Wouldn´t ragavan be awesome in this deck. Turn two molten rain sounds pretty strong
Daddy content, AND Land Destruction!?!?
Chef's Kiss
Another quality video. Keep it up daddy.
Really have found your domain.
I like Rest in Peace more than Leyline because you can cascade into RIP.
I feel like this deck would benefit from running seasoned pyromancer in combination with mantis rider or in place of it. Thanks for the content papa aids
Tay daddies back!
BRO, I CAN'T UNDERSTAND A SINGLE WORD COMING FROM YOUR MOUTH!

Are you going to try RW Prison again some time?
I like Leyline just cuz it doesn’t get countered if you start with it but then I sometimes end up with them being not able to cast them cuz they are off color
nice, 4k content 💯
Nicely done
actually for leyline of the void 4/60 = 1/15 x 7 = .4666666
Best voice in MtG
Can Leyline of Combustion be a good card against the meta? Esp cause there are so many target things
I agree with leyline of the void. Probably a lot better than white leyline in this deck.
Personally I always go with LOTV because of how fast things have gotten. By turn two the game is almost decided nowadays when playing against graveyard decks.
that bolt off of burning ..: thick daddy lol
Big brain move:
1 Leyline of the void
nice run!
Indeed!
Magic played the way Richard Garfield intended.
I think layline of the void is a good side board option vs rest in peace
RIP is probably better than Leyline for this, especially since the deck is, like you said, essentially a burn strategy. Diluting that too much by mulling for a leyline seems risky compared to finding and playing RIP. Just kinda have to accept that the graveyard matchup is gonna be shaky.
Rip makes it easier to find in game than leyline, you can gamble on cascade
I'm going to a modern store Championship on July 15th. Wish me luck. I'm bringing U Tron.
Leyline does seem good on paper, but they also have the evoke creature to beat it. I think liiving end is just super good rn, and your mu is so terrible that the leylines arent worth it
Why didn't you include Kira like in your older vid?
