@@codymcandrew3677I'm all for the memes, but Leyline is almost uncastable, and without Leyline, Scion is 8 mana. If you want to keep the scions and Leylines, you need triomes
I think the leyline is unplayable in this deck. You have 8 useless cards unless you draw a leyline on the opening hand, and it doesn't pitch to anything
This was a rough video to watch because of how interesting Stormfist Crusader could be. Would be a nice idea to revisit in the future, on a rainy day maybe.
Oh man. I have many memories of trying to make Stormfist Crusader good in the Eldraine Standard. Spoiler, I could not. Not in knights. Not in aggro/burn.
Stormfist Crusader has found a lovely home in my Jirina Kudro commander deck. It’s not the best, but it contributes to the theme of committing as much violence as possible while still providing much-needed card draw.
It was good in Mardu knights though after a few bans in standard, it was a solid tier 2 deck especially with the knight that could get embercleave or maul of the skyclave.
Structurally, the leyline package is flawed. 60% of opening hands will not contain leyline, and in those games, all 4 lines and all 4 dracos become dead for the rest of the game. I looked at the mana but couldn't see everything clearly. Can we hard cast line? We'd need either RBUW or RBGG, right? And we only have 2 colors. So Draco costs 8 at best. Domain decks can hard cast line if they draw it. We can't. I think we shoulda gone a different direction with those 8 spots
I've been brewing something similar to this which also uses Vial Smasher the Fierce alongside Scion of Draco and Fireblast for some absolutely insane burst damage. Between Leyline Binding, Force of Will, Fireblast, Scion, and Fury, you can be doing scary amounts of damage to your opponent with Vial Smasher, and then throw any permanents with Bombardiers.
One day I'll be able to read the fucking cards properly. Scion of Draco gives First Strike, Hexproof, Lifelink, Trample and Vigilance to ALL your creatures, not only itself.
The doctor who decks had a card called Memory Worm (1R 1/1, whenever you cast a spell not from your hand target player takes 2 damage and rummages, and it gets a +1+1 counter). I assume it's not on mtgo, and it wouldn't fit in this decklist anyways since you aren't casting spells from outside your hand. But I have to wonder if there is a way to brew a punisher list using it, because it's such a powerful effect, but requires such a specific build around.
Im curious how this would have played out if the leyline - scion package were out and some number of exsanguinator cavalry came in to make stormfist crusader scale better and provide selection to filter late-drawn lands and chrome moxen.
Round 5 Game 2 you could have attacked with the Goblin to play Leyline into Sheoldred and had live draws toward Scion. Still a long shot, but the game wasn't over yet
It would be nice to see another run with an updated decklist. You had a pretty bad run of luck with Marit Lage out of the gate, Combo decks just always having the combo, Burning Inquiry drawing dead twice in a row, and Yo dawg I heard you like Bowmasters so I'll Bowmasters your Bowmasters times 3 to top it all off.
I actually like keeping Scion for storm (and lands too) just because it gives lifelink. 24 life vs. 16 can really matter, no? 3 bolts, 2 Sheol and 2 Kikis seem like reasonable cuts instead, as they are slow enough (well, bolt isn't but they don't have creatures)
I think swapping out the Dracos with goblin guides would have given this deck a lot more oomph, they were bricks almost every time they came up. Cool deck otherwise.
I bet cutting the Leylines and Scions in exchange for Grief Reanimate would help this deck

🤣🤣
Never. Cutting memes for powerful and competitive cards is not the way.

I feel like throwing in a 3rd color like blue would even do better than the scion package
When it comes to brewing, "do what I say, not what I brew."
"brew as I say, not as I brew" imo :)
"cube as I say, not as I cube"
“Brew brew brew brew, brew brew brew brew”

Hello Isaac. My name is also Isaac and I also love Kederekt parasite. Weird world we live in.
Oh man. I have many memories of trying to make Stormfist Crusader good in the Eldraine Standard. Spoiler, I could not. Not in knights. Not in aggro/burn.
I have definitely tried it in aggro and Death's Shadow (when that was added to historic). Not great haha
Eldraine had so many cool, iconic knight card.
Stormfist Crusader and Blacklance Paragon both live rent free in my head.

I played it in Cat Oven with no regrets and it was always my favorite card in the deck. Carried me to mythic.

This is the spiciest deck you’ve played in a while!

18:07, the Sheoldred did not in fact put in work
Leyline doesn’t feel worth it just for the Dracos and slightly the Parasites
Man, as an "Evil Group Hug Nekusar" EDH enjoyer, I know EXACTLY how badly this is about to go. Let's watch the train-wreck, shall we?

Stormfist Crusader was my first-ever prelease rare :)
41:55 Parasite has first strike, no?

holy, bringing back conflux spice? so ready for this :D
brewing in legacy really is the best
For the love of all that is holy I’ve been asking for a legacy domain broadside Draco deck for months lol. Please!

You had a pretty bad run of luck with Marit Lage out of the gate, Combo decks just always having the combo, Burning Inquiry drawing dead twice in a row, and Yo dawg I heard you like Bowmasters so I'll Bowmasters your Bowmasters times 3 to top it all off.
the 1/1 makes me think about blood splatter analysis. couldnt get it to work in timeless but maybe legacy?

Big missed opportunity not saying "Do as i say not as I brew"
32:19 Rather than throw the parasite couldn’t you have played chrome mox, no imprint, and flung that instead?
Painter has 3 toughness, the 1 CMC from the parasite was needed to deal the third damage
How many times can you get blown out by Pyrokinesis in a week, Phil? This is getting ridiculous.
So glad to see Not Grief Scam.
Sometimes doing the objectively wrong thing is still worth.
now I just want to see you beat people to death with stormfist crusader + exsanguinator cavalry
41:48 it has first strike! so it won't trade with snapcaster
Obligatory algorithmic contribution
The good old brewers 0-5
that intro was great xD
We really need a "drawstone" so you can play this with Painter
"do as I say, not as I do"
"and I have a terrible idea to test"
man's saying the same thing twice
Please grow your mustache
You have so much potential
I think swapping out the Dracos with goblin guides would have given this deck a lot more oomph, they were bricks almost every time they came up. Cool deck otherwise.
I just realized you have a new mtgo account name! When did that happen? You've been medeamagica for a really long time
I have two accounts. One is an account from Daybreak Games.
@@ThrabenUniversity ahhh ok that makes sense
Taking advantage of the BR enthusiasts watching, I'm just going to drop an idea for someone to donate the deck: Death's Shadow + Flame Rift
Why not play this in modern
this is almost a Modern deck tbh and could probably steal a Modern FNM if you cut the cards that aren't Modern legal for cards that are
Another installment of bad modern deck in legacy!
Brew a deck that has lot of staple cards in many different legacy decks with a fun idea play vs fast combo the first 4 rounds lol of course
