17:52 who would’ve thought that not attacking with the 1/1 enforcer would lose him the game xD. Strict misplay.
Yesterday: "I'm not going to show games where Omnath goes off"
Today: I dislike Omnath so much I am going to destroy it
"Being able to cast Dance of the Manse at instant speed was just good for the game"
-- Go Blue, Covert 2020
Teferi was never EVER good for the game.
It was though
I would totally run mtg assistant to support the channel, but then I'd see how terrible I am at this game with more detail O.o
Edit: I downloaded it and saw I have all the cards for mono red. Now look what you've done CGB xD
That commentary on the disconnect AI was hilarious.
55:21 Wow, that was a brutal disconnect for the opponent.
You can dance if you want to... Lol you were crushing it with all of the 80s and 90s song references! Now I have to listen to some 80s/90s classics haha
Cool kids know their 80s and 90s music.
@ConvertGoBlue I saw the title and immediately went and listened to the song. Such a classic
I heard about mtg assistant here, and I love the help it provides me.
My main uses for it is the deck tracking, so I know what is left in my deck.
The other thing I love is the help for drafting.
Dude, YES. I love Esper so much!! Thank you so much CGB for always posting interesting and fun decks and gameplay!!
Glad you like them!
I am so happy, first we see Grixis get some love and now Esper! Two of my favorite color combos.... TY so much
It’s been a minute since I heard a Gin Blossoms reference. Thanks for the content. Always enjoy watching a deck succeed against the meta.
Glad you enjoy it!
I just built a deck quite like this, even though I chose yorion as my companion. Added a bunch of 3/4archons that spawn little pegasuses as well and they do some serious work in the deck
I just love the dance of the manse decklist and it feels really good that you can counter almost the entire meta if you build with the right cards around it :D
You can dance
every dance with a guy,
who gives you the eye
let him hold you tight...
Man I love playing doomdecks. Not because they are so good, but they can be so satisfying.
Keep your good work CGB!
You know what I love seeing in this channel? The number of subscribers adding up to 100k
I love too see how happy CGB gets when he plays Dance of the Manse. You can tell, that he is really enjoying this deck
I like the part where you’re singing the dance song as your opponent’s head explodes. Like some kind of serial killer with everything going as planned.
If anyone is interested, I had I tough time finding a deck that worked since the bans, and I tried THIS deck, replaced the conundrums (no more ramp) and it has been killing it. FYI!
just started watching my favorite spice-boi after a break from Arena. i come back to find the same humor, same ballin hair, but a new sweet set and a chair fit for a god. My man is going stronger than ever!
Welcome back!
@@covertgoblue thank you! As enjoyable as ever my man!
Nice! I also gravitates towards Esper control (also trying Jeskai) as a way to combat the Omnath menace. Cheers for more ideas!
Watching your videos after teaching kids all day then running League of Legends practice is my favorite part of my day. Thank you
Glad you enjoy it!
The Yorion play in about 40:30 was something else to watch :D
i also became a member of the diamond club today! thanks for keeping me motivated to grind the climb CGB
That's awesome! Congrats on Diamond!
I loved this deck the first time you played it.
I consistently started watching your videos after this, to be honest
I Just love this deck and i was waiting your version since 1 week, i'm such a fulfilled Man.
Confounding conundrum is indeed a huge step towards stopping the ramp. It's hilarious when they crack a passage with more than one on the board 🤣
Would you ever be willing to do a video on your thought process behind which/ how many lands you choose to use when building a deck? I'd love to understand the science behind it better so that I can craft my own home brews. I'm decent at building decks, but usually only go with one or two colors because three or more gets confusing for me.
It depends on whether you are building in paper or MTGA and what kind of deck you are trying to build. For most decks in MTGA, you want more than 24 (40%) lands unless you are building aggro. Decks that require more than 4 lands to function need to be running between 25-28 lands depending on the average cost of the deck.
I love how I asked this question literally 2 videos ago and you already had something brewing
Hope you enjoyed it!
@@covertgoblue I did, thanks CGB! Esoer's my favourite colour combo and it's great to see it well represented by the #1 in BO1
Points for the Gin Blossoms reference. New Miserable Experience was one of the first albums I owned.
Hey Jealousy!!! What a way to end the video, if you ask me. Hehe
40:46 makes me want to just blink as many things as possible with a yorion deck
I love Doom Foretold and Dance decks. Thanks!
That moment when the AI decides to be on your side :D
Loved the spontaneous safety dance
Great games! I loved the deck and the gameplay.
Glad to hear!
BRUH THIS IS SO SIMILAR TO MY DECK!!! The only difference I have is I run 2 Necromentia and 2 Ashiok's Erasure + 2 Archon of Suns Grace instead of the 2 Golden Eggs, 1 Confounding Conundrum, and 3 removal spells! This looks like an upgrade though!!!
Edit: I love you CGB! ROCK ON!!!
Great minds think alike!
That was a dirty game against Omnath. Good show!
Imagine playing the brain dead broken omnath-cobra combo and doing “your go” to your opponent only to lose terribly.
To be fair, the deck is pretty hard to pilot. I agree that it’s broken, I’ve cast 4 Ultimatum in 1 turn, but it’s definitely not brain dead, especially in the earlier turns
@@brianv3ntura it's brain dead in the sense that the floor of the deck is pretty low, so one could take a lot of it doing poorly, but it's ceiling is definitely one of the highest possible
brianv3ntura, like the other guy said. It’s brain dead because a person who doesn’t understand the cards at all can play the deck and stomp someone with a non-ramp deck. Is there a skill curve? Yes. But that doesn’t make it a 10,000 IQ deck. You literally just get enough mana to play a Genesis, and win by filling the board with free creatures using free mana from omnath. It’s definitely not a hard combo to pull off.
@@ryanbolson23 I mean at that point the only decks that aren't brain dead are way intricate combo decks. Like nearly all decks in mtg are pretty simple to play at a basic level. At least omnath has some depth if you wanna go that far with it. No I don't play omnath, just a bit tired of seeing people call whatever makes it to the top brain dead no matter what
I legit cringed and cackled when you Danced back 4 Doom Fortolds on that guy in game 2. You did your opponent DIRTY there :D
Straight get wreck. Love the content mtg entertainment at its FINEst
I’ve been away from magic ever since New Phyrexia. Due to a friend, I’ve been playing arena. It’s been difficult keeping up/getting competitive since honestly I’m unfamiliar with the newer cards. With that said, I’ve been enjoying/watching your content. Keep up the great work!
This deck keeps coming back 😮 (like Jason does in Friday the 13th movies).
This video got me to craft the dance of the manse and play doom foretold for the first time. It is a lot of fun
Funny... last week for FNM I was playing Azorious yorion (which has a bunch of enchaments to blink) and I had two dance of the manse in my side board specifically for mill opponents.
Great deck. Love the 80's references.
I got the habit of checking CGB's profile on aetherhub every day to see what's coming up. I love this deck, have played some 20 games and about 95% of the time the opponent scoops when Dance resolves.
Oh and I wish I could see their faces after they try to Fable Passage and end up with one less land.
You're having better luck than I sir, and I'm middling in Gold tier. I have a horrible W/L rate with this deck. I made some modifications based on the end of his video where I added another heartless act or 2 and put in another sweeper because I would be okay until the mid game and then just flounder out while my opponent did much more powerful things and I'm still struggling to win much. In my experience The Meta is just too quick to keep up with Adventures and counterspell decks can sit back and wait to counter Dance of the manse or Doom whild you kind of just stall out. I'm still learning how to play the deck and I've definitely made some mistakes but any advice you can provide would be great.
I honestly haven't seen much Omnath in gold so I'm grinding away until I have enough Rare WCs. BW God has been a fun card to fill the spot for now.
Any love/thoughts on Shark Typhoon for the deck?
Went gold to mid Plat with a similar deck! Interesting to see you play this type of deck
Awesome Deck list and content. Also if you turn the speed up to 2x you sound like Jesse Eisenberg, just throwing that out there. Haha
I was wondering why I was facing this all day.... Geee, thanks CGB.
Yes! Esper poweeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrr ! Thanks CGB!
Please play the historic version of this deck with fall of Thran and conundrum
Add in ashiok to make your opponents cry
With Golden Egg in the build you could potentially play Jegantha. Would also be confusing for the opponent to see it as your companion. And who knows, it might just save you once in a blue moon...
what about this deck with the new bans? any chance to compete with rogues or gruul or milll?
CGB, do you think Dance + Shrines + Extinction may work as control?
I hope that we will see the plus one ability from time raveler again in some form. Casting an Shatter or an Ultimatum in the opponents turn was so cool.
You know, if your friends don't dance, then they're no friends of mine
i named my version of this deck safety dance lol
I was so hoping the title of this video was because of that song and was not disappointed in the least
Love this deck
Hahahah i love that men without hats!!!
This might have been my favorite video of yours. The AI couldn't have done them dirtier xD
Cool!... I recognized the Gin Blossoms reference! Hmmm, i think CGB & I have grown up, & we're really old now! :(
I have to wonder why we dont just play yorion as a companion and jam a whole bunch more stuff in it? it seems like the 80 card deck against all the mill running around would be good. However this is a sweet version I just prefer to have the auto yoyo in hand and like the charming prince loop.
I nominate " Danse Macabre" as the victory song.
I've been playing this in Bo3 for around the past week + a few:
I'd recommend swapping out Golden Egg for Mazemind Tomb personally. The mana fixing once in awhile is nice from Golden Egg (1 mana sac) but the 4 scrys just help a TON to find answers and/or specific lands. Outside of that, small differences, this deck has been doing well for me as well =)

@@LykoticState really appreciate it
Huh...was listening to Til I Hear it from You on the way home from work today.
You can just see the happiness on CGB’s face when winning against rogues lol.
CGB YOU are cool. From the cool kids club. Love you. Keep up the good work.
Thanks! You too!
No introduction guys, but the games start at 8:00
Hey CGB! One of my decks got featured in the magic.gg website. It's an Izzet Aggro decks I built out of boredom and got 7+ wins in a row with it. My current winrate with it is at 83%. May I suggest you showcase it in the video? :D
My current list is a bit different right now cause I started facing different stuff. I replaced stern dismissal for unsummon. 2 stormwing for 2 anticipate. 1 master of wind and 1 jace, mirror mage for 2 keep safe.
Btw, I suggest you use shatter the sky instead of extinction event in this doom deck, cause it fills the graveyard for drown in the loch. Extinction event is counter-productive if you're running drown in the loch.
"I've put out Dance videos before".
Don't play with our hearts CGB, show us, show us the spirit of the dance!
*Smash cut to Napolean Dynamite dance scene*
Hey CGB, have you played Pioneer a bit? Was wondering if that sweet Doom deck would be a thing in that format also, nice video keep it up!
I’ve actually been undefeated versus rogues with this big red deck in BO3. Turns out storms wrath and Phoenix of ash is pretty sweet
I tried this deck and I loved it! The only matchup we will lose is with RDW which is too fast for the deck to counter
This has been the most fun looking deck I’ve seen in Zendikar Rising Standard. Is there anywhere I could find a deck like this but for Bo3
Hey! Do you think it would be alright it I just Danse of the Manse tonight? You see I'm in no shape for Omnath, and anyway I don't have wild card to craft......
I love the Gin Blossoms reference
I could watch the Doom Dance all day
after seeing your matches. I think a grim tutor or a fae of wishes would get you the cards you need instead of having to dig so much for what you need. Those are the swaps id choose.
Looks almost identical to my main deck.
I just run that artifact that lets you draw for two, then you can sacrifice it and pay 2 more to draw again (helps with 2 tap land opening hands that don't have Yorion). Also run instant speed removal for omnath/cobra. Shatter at 4 is a requirement against rogues and red. Also baby shark is nasty with dance.
Could you post a list
@@EricM93 I won't be home till tomorrow night but I'll log on and drop it here. I've been tweeking it every set for the last few sets so it's pretty tuned.
Edward Freda thanks so much. I guess he doesn’t play shatter because of double white? Possibly he thinks doom foretold + heartless, elspeth nightmare, and drown is good enough? I’ve been maining azorius and it’s basically draw shatter and win vs rogues and red, don’t draw it and lose
I suppose that I can expect to fight this deck a lot the next few days.
Been playing this (more or less) in plat 1/2 and diamond. It rocks at 70% win. Only struggles with mono-red on the draw (evidently)
Ah we can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance
Well they're are no friends of mine
They're are? They are are? no no no friends of mine
@@hedjuk lol, I copied the lyrics from Google. They got me on that one
I run a slightly different version of it since zendikar week 1, works soo well against top 3 meta decks
Nice reference to Phil Collins CGB!!
I remember this deck..........
When I had teferi. Master of Time. LOL!
Safety Dance is the song choice for the deck, but I Can't Dance by Genesis is the song choice for the opponent
We love you Cgb
"Well, we can drive around this town, until the cops chase us around"
I would probably scoop to four simultaneous Doom Foretold triggers too 😂
I added a couple of skyclave apparitions and a lithoform engine so I could copy doom triggers or spells in general.
Is adding a list of music played during videos a big ask?
It's fun that you can tell what order CGB's videos are in by what rank he is towards the end of the video.
If Cheville targeted the 4/4 Treacherous Blessing, will it die?
I found myself singing in my head the monored song when I play againsst it , your fault , LOL
X3 yorion
X2 dance
And it's perfect
You should play Crawling Barrens. This Card wins Games.
Still watching the intro, but isn't Jegantha a free roll since you have no cards with double Mana symbols?
I love Doom Decks, might try Mardoom again.
It might be, but I think Yorion would count as a double symbol right?
I'm sitting here dancing to CGB singing
Men Without hats AND Bowie? In ONE DECK?
I'm not saying I single handedly brought Danse back into the meta.... I'm just saying climbing to Mythic with it in the first two weeks of the expansion and not seeing anyone else running it then was highly serindipitous
Why u don't use elsphet conquer death?
Seems like doom foretold does what elspeth does but better. I’d consider playing some shatters though maybe?
I wonder if the game against the Klothys it would've been better to use the Heartless Act on the Serpent; that way any creature they played would let you use EE on Klothys. You had Golden Egg to hedge for another turn or two if they didn't play creatures, but c'mon, it's gruul stompy.
