That second game though. God I wish I could have been in the opponent’s presence for that, just to see them go from thinking “Wow he’s sure drawn a lot of wraths” to “Oh my god he’s literally only playing wraths.” Wonder how long it took them to realize lol
The second game might just be one of the most glorious things I’ve ever witnessed. Watching the domain deck have an Atraxa every turn for like 10 turns in a row and still lose is unbelievably therapeutic. This. This is content.
I realised while watching that my Atraxa domain deck would win easily were I playing against this boardwipe.deck. This is because I play several copies of Bitter Reunion in my version as early game card filtering and to give the 3/3 Beast tokens or Atraxa haste in the late game for a quick finish. Without the potential to put lethal on board in one turn and give it haste, any slow creature deck has a terrible time against this.
I think it'll be hilarious when people start playing this because they saw Seth play it, only to create the most uneventful mirror match in the history of standard
He is able to project all his degenerate spite playing onto Crim and just hates on Crim instead of acknowledging he is the problematic player at the table. Oh wait, Phil is on this season... STOP THE AGENT OF TREACHERY LOOP OH GOD OH NO.
Totes, I feel like those are when they playtest the "haha gotcha!" decks and then scamper away before opponents have a chance to sideboard around them. Question is though: if they took this to best-of-3, how do opponents sideboard around it?
Well most planeswalker will win against this deck? There is only one wrath that kills planeswalkers, so atopping the plneswalkers drom ulting is not really possible.

@@kats7930 Sometimes you keep a hand thats shoddy. Sometimes your hand gets unclogged by some card and then countering it is just game right there. No reason to play it out. Not always salt, but funny to think so anyway lol.
I bet that second game the opponent was sitting there going “I played my Atraxa, why hasn’t he scooped yet? I’m casting 7 mana bombs and haven’t won yet, I’ve never got this far. I have an Atraxa EVERY turn, just scoop you fool!”.
I remember reading a comment recently that was something to the effect of, "growing up is realizing Seth was the real bad guy all along, Crim just wants to play grixis" or something like that. It's the truth
You need to cut down on the Mishra's Foundries. With a deck full of double colored pips, the density of colorless lands you have is way too high. I think one or two is plenty, and then you can rely mostly on your Mirrexes and Restless Fortresses. Otherwise, aside from the colored mana issues, this deck is absolutely bonkers in how well it does
Yup. Also, the deck doesn't win with direct damage. It's either poison, mill or concession. There's fortress is worth it because it's a good blocker and a way to gain life plus a dual land.
Funny enough, the mirror is determined by who is able to reliably activate their man lands/Mirrex earlier. Neither deck has any way of making a come back against itself, despite being made entirely of cards meant to enable a deck to come back.
@@Ash16180 it is the only wincon basically besides the mill, so you make a mite end of turn and attack the other. Then the other does the same and in the mean time every turn a wrath kills all the mites in play...
With the current deck as is, I think the player on the draw loses, because they'll draw their final card first. Firing up creature lands just gets them killed by wraths. You couldn't do enough damage with them to win by damage. There's too much life gain.
So far, all Seth's videos i saw would ruin a tournment if they made an appearance... Turbo fog was the worse though because i've seen it in the wild...
Well - wraths are mostly not instant speed so at lest you can do some damage with haste.. If you don't play haste - then probably yes... Fog is also cheaper so turbo fog may be playing more card draw.. Oh yes - I do play deep cavern bats - so turbo wrath might be even worse.. Also of course some creatures don't care that much about fog -- and on the other hand something like incubator tokens can get around (most) wraths but not fog. Why not play turbo-fogwrath?
I’d like to imagine that second opponent just seething, hoping you’d miss one eventually. But whether it was their stubbornness or their sense of humor that kept them from scooping, I’m so glad they didn’t, it made for one of my favorite magic games ever. Interestingly, Seth played in pretty much every other magic game in that list of favorites, what a guy.
He didn't bait the binding. The opponent can only bind the sylex once they get priority, and they only got it once Farewell went on the stack. He and Seth were just fooling around since the game was already over.
Opponent was being nice, letting Seth get his Sylex back because surely exiling your Sylex to Farewell right after you play it is an accident. The most honorable opponent.
Making "Farewell" be literally the last card your opponent sees game 2 (both in name and in wiping their everything) is the most sadistically delicious thing i've seen in a while. Bravo Seth.
The thing is, it feels like these new wraths were specifically made for the commander format. One of the reasons why it's sometimes so hard to cast a wrath in commander is because you spend your turn casting the wrath, and then everyone else starts rebuilding their board before you do. Wraths like sunfall (or the mite one) leave bodies on the battlefield, so you are not left with nothing on your board after a wrath. However, in standard, this translates to games where a wrath, whether it was strategically kept in hand or top decked, wins a player a game on its own.
I used to run (YEARS ago) a mono blue deck whose entire wincon was to ult OG Tamiyo, drop Omniscience, and then Cryptic Command everything you play until you concede or deck out. It was 4 of each of those 3 cards, 3 Vedalken Shackles, 25 lands, 2 Ratchet Bombs, 2 Elixir of Immortality, and the rest was literally just all Remands and various era-competative counterspells. People got MAD lmao.
if leyline binding didn't have the "an opponent controls" clause then that could have been some sneaky counter-tech hitting your own creature in response to a wrath that hits enchantments. Just the tiny little things that tune cards actually mattering makes me happy
@@Red_Mag3 nope, those limiters have good reason to be there most of the time. Design today is entirely too free with how strong a lot of cards are. There are the occasional that could be more bold with what they're allowed to do, Leyline Binding isn't one of them.
What's wild is that this isnt even all the wraths in standard. Red has Brotherhood's End, Calamitous Cave-In, and Burn Down the House, Black has Gix's Command, Drag to the Bottom, and Terror Tide, and White has Temporary Lockdown, Unstable Glyphbridge, and The Eternal Wanderer, and Blue even has The Phasing of Zhalfir. There is also Karn's Sylex, Corpse Explosion, Hostile Takeover, Temporal Firestorm. Not sure if Toxrill the Corrosive counts but it's kind of a slow wrath. So dependimg on how you're counting all the possible options there's over 20 wraths in standard
@@wigglepants No, they aren't, they often fill the same practical purpose when powerful enough, but they function on very different mechanisms, and damaging sweepers are in general much weaker, End The Festivities does not wipe the entire board clean, it does a minor amount of damage that can sweep weak creatures, Brotherhood's End does not wipe the board clean, it does a fair bit of damage that can sweep weak creatures, or it can clean out artifacts, those effects do not say "Destroy/Exile all creatures" or similar, they do damage
Oh, I've seen this, just that it's usually accompanied by a counter or something that can recover the board like Atraxa. So going full blown "NOTHING ELSE" is a new spin.
While that might make for a better deck, Seth is playing Against the Odds. If there’s a spell that isn’t a sorcery saying destroy all creatures or exile all creatures, then it’s not really an all wrath deck.
You gotta give props to the domain atraxa opponent because they scooped with the farewell animation playing out, as if they literally got wrathed away.
I think it's the combo of lots of wraths that are very strong and lots of lands that are good that also make creatures. Without the land creatures, mill is the only way to win.
I had a deck like this before Alchemy was around. Was used only for the destroy x creatures and it was all wrath's but I also had 2 Approach's in the deck for a win con
Props to the domain guy who has the will to go through all of Seth's wrath. BO1 often has players who'll immediately scoop if you counter or answer their bombs 😂
The really gross thing is that, technically? This doesn't include all the wraths in Standard. Heck, MKM technically adds four new Wraths to Standard, including two that would slot into this deck (No Witnesses and Deadly Cover-Up)!
If you add all the spells in standard that give creatures -×-× and x damage theres probably at least 30 board wipes ... way way too many for any format
I was like "your first spell is on turn 3, at the earliest? No way", but this deck proved to be more than satire! I was surprised by how thoughtful certain elements of it turned out to be. For example, the man lands functioning as both mana sinks on non-wrath turns and rebuilding the inevitable early game life loss.
This might be my favourite standard deck you've ever made. Its such a simple concept- 'what if every non-land card was a wrath?' and it sounds preposterous, but the fact that its even possible in standard in a meta with very weak control magic and no combo kills, it just makes it so perfect. Utterly, devastatingly perfect.
Now, this is a potential Clash deck! Reidane as commander, play him on shield side, and wrath every turn, until you win with Approach or lands. Let's learn how much wraths is too much!))
Back in the Kaladesh Standard, I had a deck that was 24 board wipes and my win condition was Gonti, Lord of Luxury and Lost Legacy, and milling them out. It actually did pretty well in best of three because they didn't have the time to finish the second game. My favorite play was when I played my fourth Settle the Wreckage and my opponent said, "Well, at least that's the last Settle the Wreckage you can play on me." And then I played a Settle the Wreckage I had stolen from his deck with a Gonti.
This is basicly what beans attempts to do in the mirror. The deck is pretty threat-light, only having Migration, Atraxa, and the kicker angels. Since the deck has far more answers than it does threats, you win the beans mirror by not playing beans and boarding in a single jayce to mill your opponent first.
22:52 - "I cant imagine how tilting this has to be, i mean, i can imagine it and its glorious". This right here is why SO has a one-way ticket to hell 😆
You'd think the deck would do more poorly due to all the creature lands in the format, as that would be the correct counterplay for most decks. Not that I know the meta, but it looks like people should be playing more creature lands.
This video doesn't find a lot of the decks weaknesses, like RDW, or a UW control deck, or a deck with Restless Cottage. It's not as strong as it looks, it just happens to match up REALLY well against a few specific decks.
This just made my day. Ngl i would probably break something if i would loose to that lmao. That Atraxa player went straight to sign up for therapy after that game for sure.
I had a similar idea of, "if creatures are so good, how about a deck that is all spot removal spells, card draw to get more removal spells, and maybe a handful of Planeswalkers to close out the game (including Wandering Emperor as more removal :)" It got plenty of scoops and the occasional fair win, but was not the most fun deck to play
@@ashutoshmohapatra7320 I do not know what kind of control decks you are building, but 24 spot removal spells from Cut Down to Void Rend is kind of a lot, and that is what the deck was. The rest was 4 Quick Study; 2 each of little Kaito, little Wanderer, and Sorin; 24 lands with a high density of creature lands
i once made a "kill everything" deck which was just mardu all removal. no wins cons i just had it when a daily challenge was "kill x creatures". this reminded me of that deck and the time i played against some midrange creature deck that just scooped after the 20th kill spell.
When I heard the question “can only wraths work” I had to chuckle. My favorite standard deck I’ve played was mardu control, back somewhere around ixalan iirc, and my only complaint was wanting a couple more wraths. Same vibe as this one, though. In a midrange heavy meta especially, yes, oops all wraths is good. Especially since it’s not just wraths, it’s good wraths with bonus built-in backup wincons..
I've never been fan of these "garbage" brew videos …. until now. You've stirred in me a memory from 20 years ago, where I dared to posit a crazy idea. Insanity they told me. Of course it was. I was a child. And yet... I hadn't the money for even a single wrath at the time…let alone 27 of them or whatever this is. I…I think I get it now.
For me great to hear your honest opinion about the game so far, as long magic is the center of it all i will be here for how long it will go. Started in 2019 and i'm still here so i came to stay and nothing else. Thank you for doing this, insane thats its already been 5 years. Hopefully we get a more interesting standard back, just keep it coming ill be there ;)
Reminds me of my old BW demon of loathing deck in arena. It wasn't all wipes, but every wipe BW had at the time, every removal spell and only 4 demon of loathing as finisher... but most of the time the opponent rage quit...
You probably need to switch out two of the foundries with something else like the caves of koilos to make sure you always have more B/W mana. Might also want to run 27 lands and 61 cards.
The hilarious part is picturing his aggro opponents thinking, “damn, how the hell is this guy so lucky with drawing those wraths?”
That second game though. God I wish I could have been in the opponent’s presence for that, just to see them go from thinking “Wow he’s sure drawn a lot of wraths” to “Oh my god he’s literally only playing wraths.” Wonder how long it took them to realize lol

It's great to see opponents scoop rather than slowly die to little beats from creature lands 😂

That was my thought too. Foundry was very rarely relevant. It would’ve been better as a basic in most of those games.

Now, this is a potential Clash deck! Reidane as commander, play him on shield side, and wrath every turn, until you win with Approach or lands. Let's learn how much wraths is too much!))
Back in the Kaladesh Standard, I had a deck that was 24 board wipes and my win condition was Gonti, Lord of Luxury and Lost Legacy, and milling them out. It actually did pretty well in best of three because they didn't have the time to finish the second game.
My favorite play was when I played my fourth Settle the Wreckage and my opponent said, "Well, at least that's the last Settle the Wreckage you can play on me." And then I played a Settle the Wreckage I had stolen from his deck with a Gonti.
I want to know at what point in the second game your opponent realized that you were only playing wraths, like is it after the 6th wrath? the 7th?
Hilarious deck! The pure entertainment value of just imagining how upset your opponents are getting 🤣
I'm not even into standard but this is the greatest video I have seen in my life
cant imagine what opponents are thinking. what have you done, unleashing this onto the world seth
Seth entering his villain arc with the recent influx of Blood Moon, land destruction, and now board wipe tribal decks.
This is basicly what beans attempts to do in the mirror. The deck is pretty threat-light, only having Migration, Atraxa, and the kicker angels. Since the deck has far more answers than it does threats, you win the beans mirror by not playing beans and boarding in a single jayce to mill your opponent first.
hey man thanks for posting your games, ive been struggling since i lost my job and posting videos has made it better and you inspired me
I am sorry Seth but I hate this deck as much as I love you, which is a lot. Keep up the great work in the salt mines!
It's but an honest living mining salt. XD
22:52 - "I cant imagine how tilting this has to be, i mean, i can imagine it and its glorious". This right here is why SO has a one-way ticket to hell 😆
Seth losing to his colourless lands is the most Seth thing ever
This has to be related to the Reddit post complaining about someone who played 5 wraths in 7 turns against them. Hilarious day.
This is just demented, crazy, and rage inducing... -Grabs the dek list- I love it!
Opponent plays Virtue of Persistence against a 36 wraths deck lol, that's hilarious
You'd think the deck would do more poorly due to all the creature lands in the format, as that would be the correct counterplay for most decks. Not that I know the meta, but it looks like people should be playing more creature lands.
This video doesn't find a lot of the decks weaknesses, like RDW, or a UW control deck, or a deck with Restless Cottage.
It's not as strong as it looks, it just happens to match up REALLY well against a few specific decks.
This just made my day.
Ngl i would probably break something if i would loose to that lmao.
That Atraxa player went straight to sign up for therapy after that game for sure.
I had a similar idea of, "if creatures are so good, how about a deck that is all spot removal spells, card draw to get more removal spells, and maybe a handful of Planeswalkers to close out the game (including Wandering Emperor as more removal :)"
It got plenty of scoops and the occasional fair win, but was not the most fun deck to play
That's just a typical control deck.
@@ashutoshmohapatra7320 I do not know what kind of control decks you are building, but 24 spot removal spells from Cut Down to Void Rend is kind of a lot, and that is what the deck was. The rest was 4 Quick Study; 2 each of little Kaito, little Wanderer, and Sorin; 24 lands with a high density of creature lands
i once made a "kill everything" deck which was just mardu all removal. no wins cons i just had it when a daily challenge was "kill x creatures". this reminded me of that deck and the time i played against some midrange creature deck that just scooped after the 20th kill spell.
I'd hate to play against this deck. Also missing the LCI board wipe that can turn into a good creature
With decks like this, I'd mulligan to perfect Mana every time. If you're gonna build like a Treasure Hunt player, gotta play like one, haha
The problem is that with no card draw he really needs a large opening hand or he’ll run out
How is this an Against the Odds? It looks like just a normal Crim deck to me
Misery was definitely on the menu.
I’m doing this right now with vein ripper as my only hero…a couple breach the multiverse and cruelty of gix. The vein ripper passive pops.
Lol oddly I just built a version of this was planning on playing it at Chicago
When I heard the question “can only wraths work” I had to chuckle. My favorite standard deck I’ve played was mardu control, back somewhere around ixalan iirc, and my only complaint was wanting a couple more wraths. Same vibe as this one, though. In a midrange heavy meta especially, yes, oops all wraths is good. Especially since it’s not just wraths, it’s good wraths with bonus built-in backup wincons..
Back in Return to Mirrodin Standard, I had a deck that ran 11 Wraths. Black and White Sun's Zenith are a helluva drug.
Also, best game in the history of Standard for me was a T2 Heartless Summoning into triple Myr Superion
I've never been fan of these "garbage" brew videos …. until now. You've stirred in me a memory from 20 years ago, where I dared to posit a crazy idea. Insanity they told me. Of course it was. I was a child. And yet...
I hadn't the money for even a single wrath at the time…let alone 27 of them or whatever this is.
I…I think I get it now.
Absolutely my favorite saffron deck, what a world. Just like WOTC intended :)
For me great to hear your honest opinion about the game so far, as long magic is the center of it all i will be here for how long it will go. Started in 2019 and i'm still here so i came to stay and nothing else. Thank you for doing this, insane thats its already been 5 years. Hopefully we get a more interesting standard back, just keep it coming ill be there ;)
Classic Seth AtO shenanigans here, I am all for it
That was absolutely magnificent.
I have NEVER been more excited for an Against the Odds! My UW Control heart sings
Just imagine the mirror match.
This is sooooo good, I laughed the whole time vs that domain deck!
Reminds me of my old BW demon of loathing deck in arena. It wasn't all wipes, but every wipe BW had at the time, every removal spell and only 4 demon of loathing as finisher... but most of the time the opponent rage quit...
I found the deck I want to use to grind my daily wins. Thank you, Seth, for enlightening me.
I love how it's an all wrath deck and he's not even running all the wrath spells in standard.
Can't wait to see all the Turbowrath decks popping up in standard.
I really enjoy this channel. Im still learning magic, but ive loved jank for 20 years of yugioh.
That Atraxa game was the best thing I've seen from this channel. Which is saying something!
You probably need to switch out two of the foundries with something else like the caves of koilos to make sure you always have more B/W mana. Might also want to run 27 lands and 61 cards.
