@@dcrappa1I think he was hoping that he could continue comboing to get more power onto the battlefield, since he didn’t have enough to win immediately after the temp fissure. My guess is that he was worried that the affinity deck with a hand full of cheap artifacts would be able to rebuild faster than the bundle of 1/1s and 2/2s could kill
He had discarded, drawn, or played a significant enough amount of lands that his odds of continuing to combo were high, unfortunately it basically fizzled after the Temporal Fissure and he didn't draw any other interaction.
Hey look! Thats me! Seeing myself in a card market video is a dream! 🥳 This tournament was so cool to be apart of! And i cant wait to see how the top 8 plays out! Thoralf and Andrea bring such great energy to these videos!
I'm so grateful for your participation in the swiss tournament! I'm really excited to pilot your deck in the top 8 and I hope to deliver on the skill with which you played it to make it here :D
I have been waiting for this series for weeks, LETS GOOO. No exaggeration, my favorite series format on TH-cam. Thank you Cardmarket for consistently dropping BANGERS
I think my favorite part about pauper is that there's a space in it for everything from "draft chaff" to "legacy-playable". Also, thanks for posting the Swiss and getting a bunch of people involved! I know that that's a non-trivial amount of work and that it's really niche media, but I think it's still super cool.
Which is crazy, this is like Power 9 turn 0/1/2 wins, but everything is common versus endless slogs in modern! It just goes to show how much of MTG is about your skills and instincts as a player, the community recognizing combos and synergies, and just how many cards in common print shouldn't be slept on!
@@MelanieOh TBH modern is slower due to interaction being far more prevalent. There have been many modern decks that can potentially win on turn 2-3-4, but they're usually too weak to interaction stopping their shenanigans. Ad nauseam and Nivmagus infect were such examples.
Fun to watch these two face off against each other! l appreciate the interludes that break down the thinking about their plays. Looking forward to see how this series plays out, thanks for another fun video.
Yeees! It's finally here. Super pumped for this series. Andrea should count himself lucky with this win because that Familliars deck looked super scary in the swiss!
great video as usual I still love those little talks they do where they explain their gameplan which is the big difference between other paper magic content
Love the change to the intro to mention you got Pauper legends to do the pre tournament matches! (no idea if this was the same as for modern) Makes me more confident that you guys are taking this series seriously, which imo makes it more fun to watch!
Yes we did the same for modern but we thought we would start putting in the extra work to give a platform to those who help us out with it and in exchange manage to share the games in video form from their own channels :) you can see the matches if you want in the pinned comment and description
This was an exhilarating watch as always. I love it when Andrea and Thoralf go up against each other, they have such good chemistry and it's great seeing two pros go at it
That was one swift exit for the awesome familiars deck. Not gonna lie, I love these series because the old decks are cool to see for a player who werent around for them. Seing the deck which dominates the meta atm eradicate older decks hurts. Just like scam dominating modern was just so sad.
These videos are like little slices of perfect happiness for my life. I love magic and love seeing high level play especially when it’s presented oh so well. Hats off to the Card Market team for all your current and future success
ANDREA, PAUPER, AND BEST DECK EVER! Its magical Christmasland. But fr I really just wanted to say that I appreciate your content very much and this vid is peak for sure.
It finally started! It was really cool to participate with my old combo love, even if my content is very limited (to walls 🤣) thanks for the opportunity!
Thank you for participating! You did great in the swiss 💪 hopefully we make your deck proud! Although even if we don't, we know your real deck is walls anyway 😅
Thank you for posting this. Need to watch all the swiss matches now. What would we be without cardmarket helping us with our addiction. By feeding into it 😊
Just two comments about the video itself: - The document on CardMarket calls it Fissure Storm but the video calls it Familiars Storm - If this is Pauper... shouldn't the crown be made of, idk, paper or something? :) Also, NEED MOAR PAUPER GAMEPLAY. GIEF US MOAR!!!
LETS F**KING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I HAVE BEEN SO SO EXCITED FOR SO SO LONG I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!! WE GET 7 PAUPER VIDEOS AND ITS ANOTHER TOURNAMENT STYLE AND ANDREA IS HERE AND THIS IS SIMPLY THE BEST thank you cardmarket T_T
Been so excited for this one! I hope we get a best deck ever of all the competitive formats and then a best format ever where the results are pretty obvious but we get to prove scientifically that pauper is stronger than pioneer and standard
Noooo!!! Guys you should have started with the octofinals to make this amazing serie lasts longer. Anyway, I look forward to seeing my boy Mengu be crowned with that crazy affinity deck!!
That was a quick game ! 😲 Though to be fair, thoralf was facing the uncontested pauper champion andrea ! Still kudos to thoralf for trying his best, there was even a moment where I felt he could have won the second game. But apparently, it seems that "all that glitters" was simply more consistent in this matchup and this won the game in the end. See you in the next round 😃
As someone who's played pauper over a lot of different eras, some decks like the flicker storm and certain older tron builds, any proactive deck from the last couple years is going to trounce it because pauper was a lot slower paced/value based in those eras
YOOOOOOO!! BDE Pauper is finally here!!! I'm sad Gardens didn't make the cut for this series, but I'm absolutely watching every episode of this series for my favorite format!
Since they were kind enough to spare us the plug this time, here's your reminder to like, comment & subscribe! I don't know about you, but I love this series, and I know there's nothing better I can do to let them - and their bosses - know I want to see more of it. A little bit of interaction on your part costs you nothing, but gives them the sweet, sweet algorithm juice they need to share this video with more people, AND encourages them to keep doing what they're doing. Not to mention, they're only 2k subs away from the big 150!
At 4:04 couldn't Toffel have floated two, play the bounce lane, play snap untapping the bounce land. That would open up the mana for research and send signals that be might have multiple snap in hand
@@nickstauter2604what are u talking about? The thoughtcast is 2 mana but he only pays 1 for it, then draws the second springleaf with it and plays that and a tapland
10:10 am i mistaken or did Andrea only have 3 artifacts at the time of casting Thoughtcast, so he would've needed to tap the great furnace? Admittedly the only change in the turn that would've happened was swapping the bridge for one of the lands in hand but still
I know its hard to make it happen again but i really would love to see feature match live again... I miss those livestreams, even if it is only once a month instead of every week

He has the perfect name to shout into a microphone with massive reverb in a giant arena

0:44 Thoralf really out there speaking for the viewers
This exactly lolol
It was so sick to be part of this, and I loved seeing this video!
One day maybe I can join in the studio for a dream come true
Thank you again for participating! :D I wonder how differently this match would have played out if you were piloting the deck yourself!
I dont wonder, i know 😆
@@thoralfseverin2112 playing this deck made me question why it was so OP at the time haha
I'm really happy you were able to push my favorite deck in the top 8
I think I speak for all pauper fans when I say we would love to see you play paper with the card market bois in their studio!
The inspirational music as the storm starts going off, and then just whiffs.
Absolutely wild that affinity was able to come back from 8 copies of Temporal Fissure
Why didn't he just bounce all of his permanents. Give him a hard reset
@@dcrappa1I think he was hoping that he could continue comboing to get more power onto the battlefield, since he didn’t have enough to win immediately after the temp fissure.
My guess is that he was worried that the affinity deck with a hand full of cheap artifacts would be able to rebuild faster than the bundle of 1/1s and 2/2s could kill
He had discarded, drawn, or played a significant enough amount of lands that his odds of continuing to combo were high, unfortunately it basically fizzled after the Temporal Fissure and he didn't draw any other interaction.
Affinity is also the easiest deck that can recover from a temporal fissure, since full of low to the ground spells
Better will be return all mana sources first and then creatures
crazy to see thoralf combo off for like 2 minutes straight only to get gingerbruted for game immediately after

Im sure you did great! And thank you so much for recording your reactions with me for the swiss! It was so much fun!@@CardmarketMagic
Andrea miscounted his affinity for thoughtcast at 10:10. Oh well!
As he usually says, that play is legal on paper lol
came down to comment that, i watched that part like 5 times thinking i missed something
Glad I'm not the only one
I DEMAND A REMATCH
Just to be clear, just wanted to point it out, I doubt there’s nefarious reasons
Jeskai Glitters is a really fast deck. I'm glad there is a format where artifact lands have a home.
I have been waiting for this series for weeks, LETS GOOO. No exaggeration, my favorite series format on TH-cam. Thank you Cardmarket for consistently dropping BANGERS
Thank you :) I really hope you enjoyed this one! And the next 6 matches!

hey editor, thank you for making gingerbrute do that giggle.
You're welcome 🤔 it felt appropriate
Every episode with Mengu is a certified banger
Damn what a cool second match. That old storm deck is actually sick when it pops off
Damn 15 minutes sheesshhh, gonna be seriously fast pauper matches
The decks in this top 8 are really fast, all the matches will be rather swift :D

just seeing Andrea + Cardmarket colaboration and its an INSTANT like. Best mtg channel by miles
great video as usual I still love those little talks they do where they explain their gameplan which is the big difference between other paper magic content
Yes! Andrea piloting affinity is such a perfect match.

The editing and sound effects are absolutely insane. Especially when Thoralf was storming off. So good!
Thank you :) I'm happy you enjoyed them
This was an exhilarating watch as always. I love it when Andrea and Thoralf go up against each other, they have such good chemistry and it's great seeing two pros go at it

There are still many awesome decks in the tournament :) hope you enjoy the upcoming episodes
If it makes you feel better, a Frantic Search deck using all the cards since it was banned would be tier 1 for sure.

lmao "Is it another banned spell?" *it is* "WOOOOOOOOOOO"
I loved the optimistic, momentous music on Thoralf's turn only to have all hopes dashed by the top decked All that Glitters.
Absolutely love the presentation of this, great concept and execution
YES this series started! Lets gooo!
So happy the best deck series is back! These are so fun!
Loved the video guys, amazing content as usual, good too see Andrea back, keep up the amazing work guys, much love 💖
I'm happy you enjoyed it :D

I love these top deck series, thanks for the uploads!
Thank you for posting this. Need to watch all the swiss matches now. What would we be without cardmarket helping us with our addiction. By feeding into it 😊
The animation and sound effects your did for the storm count was so unnecessarily satisfying
I'm happy you enjoyed them! You also win the award for best username!
LETS GOO! It’s our man the myth the legend ANDREA MENGUCCI!!! Plus Thoralf what a squad
Andrea the myth the man the legend again :P also banger soundtrack --- real hype
Best format, one of your most fun series returning, Mengu, what possibly be better?
Just two comments about the video itself:
- The document on CardMarket calls it Fissure Storm but the video calls it Familiars Storm
- If this is Pauper... shouldn't the crown be made of, idk, paper or something? :)
Also, NEED MOAR PAUPER GAMEPLAY. GIEF US MOAR!!!
I'm so excited to see the rest of this series!
I have the all that glitter jeskai deck at home. I sometimes bring it to small tourneys in my hometown. A blast to play with.
I'm sounding like a bot saying it every time, but nothing I love more here than Pauper and Andrea Mengucci!
Top notch content as Always ❤ i am so excited for the next rounds 🎉
I'm happy you enjoyed it :) hopefully you'll enjoy the next 6 videos as well 🥳
This is by far the best series. So exciting
What a cool match! I'm so happy we get to see a bunch of Pauper now!
Thoralf AND Andrea Mengucci?? Yes please!
I'm so happy to see my favorite deck move forward in the competition!
Also, hoping for an Andrea VS Toffel in the finale!
I audibly yelled, “YES!” When I saw the video title. 😊
a version of All that Glitters Affinity is literally my only Pauper deck, so very cool to see it move on (I mostly play EDH and Cube/Draft).
Man, pauper's the best. I've really looked forward to this series🎉
LETS F**KING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I HAVE BEEN SO SO EXCITED FOR SO SO LONG I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!! WE GET 7 PAUPER VIDEOS AND ITS ANOTHER TOURNAMENT STYLE AND ANDREA IS HERE AND THIS IS SIMPLY THE BEST thank you cardmarket T_T
Pauperrrrrr 🥳🥳🥳
Let's go! I love Pauper, all that power for the lowest price. What a fun way to play Magic. I'm hyped for this series.

The return of my favorite series on the channel let's goooooooooo
That storm count was both wild and a heart breaker.
That end of game 2 was heartbreaking. Live by the storm, die by the storm
Thank you so much for the scrumptious pauper content
It's been a while since I rooted for UW Glitters to win, go Mengu!
You guys have to to all the major 1v1 formats at this point. Legacy and Vintage next please. I NEED to know!!!
We have daily polls running in our community tab for the legacy series right now :)
OMG, that music while thoralf stormed off XD. so good.
At 4:04 couldn't Toffel have floated two, play the bounce lane, play snap untapping the bounce land. That would open up the mana for research and send signals that be might have multiple snap in hand
Loved this episode, thanks Andrea for the frequent travels to Berlin ;)
It is insane that this channel brings pro player legends to make some content for us.

I'm a simple girl. I see Mengu and I like the video.
Rooting for Affinity to go all the way! Off to a great start and Mengucci is piloting let's goooo!
Sorry, I’m a day late to the BEST MtG series on the internet????
SO HYPE for this to be back for Pauper.
when I saw the temporal fissure happen I thought it would be over then i saw the rest of the video run time man affinity is good.
One of my favorite formats and one of my favorite channels. Love to see a Pdh vid tho, pdh is so underrated
Pauper EDH would be incredibly expensive to edit 😅 so we've avoided making a video about it so far. But it's really fun to play :)
That’s real❤
10:10 you didn’t have enough mana for the spell. It costs 5 total, 3 artifacts on board and you paid 1 blue.
0:42 why did you have to make the logo so cool tho, with the awesome animation and everything
Lets go welcome back Menguu!!
So sad to see familiars storm gone. Such a cool and unique deck.

ive been waiting for this for a very long time
10:15 JUDGE? This thoughtcast should cost 2 mana right? We want rematch now.
Did ya forget the artifact lands and the artifact creature?
I know its hard to make it happen again but i really would love to see feature match live again... I miss those livestreams, even if it is only once a month instead of every week
Unfortunately, they were extremely expensive and much less people watched them :/ we simply couldn't justify them. They were fun to do though!
A new tournament! Can this one stack up to the Modern tournament? Maybe not, but I'm eager to see some Pauper gameplay
Maybe pauper will surprise you 😎
Great video, keep em coming.
Finally the most hyped video of the year
Affinity was wild back in the days (before grafted skullcap was banned)
