The only explanation for the video title and thumbnail is that Crim realized mantis rider is toilet paper in timeless but the goldfish team didn't want to waste the cute mantis thumbnail art.
Played against you on this deck with Mono black necro and you completely stomped me just chaining together reprieve and memory lapse. Glad it didn''t end up in this video lol
my biggest problem with it is that it's only ranked. i brewed up a janky fun deck to play in timeless, but then realized i could only play it if i was willing to ruin my rank, lol. unfortunately my deck also cost 4 mythic wild cards and 8 rare wild cards that i will probably never use. overall timeless gets a major yikes from me.
Yeah it's a bummer to see a lot of timeless players want to give wizards even more money by asking for anthologies or extra bundles, when it's already a format for whales
Still cheaper than MTGO. If you are not a whale you need to learn to draft to play Arena for as near to free as possible. I had playsets of most every card before Khans, crafted playsets of all the fetches and still have 190 rare and 76 mythic wildcards and haven't spent more than 40 on any set all year most the time just drop 20 on jems once per set.
@@TheEvolver311 yeah, i've put $15 in total in the last 4 years and have pretty close to set completion for all the sets since ravnica. i don't really understand all the complaints about the price. you just have to play regularly.
No it doesn't if WotC keeps releasing set+additional reprint sheets like they've consistently been doing for the last few years they'll have plenty of opportunities to invalidate your decks
Back when Mantis rider was standard I would run a playset of it with Collected Company when the deck didn't have any white lands or mana sources. It was wild times.
I used to play Mantis Rider along with Lightning Angel in modern a long time ago before I replaced them with Geist, Queller and Resto Angel. It did quite good honestly.
Love the consistency of the Goldfish channel, btw Crim i miss the Bo3 videos!! I love your excitement of getting to sideboard and wreck your opponents:)
This kind of title is offensive. If I want to play with a card I will play with the freaking card, and shame on you for trying to moke me because of it
Fix the format with giving players a starter bundle for free or least play games to unlock a helpful bundle. Typical WotC milking players for all thier linited resources

Implying Crim doesn't happily play bad cards because they remind him of mid 2010's standard
Gtfo of here! Mantis rider is KING
@@retronymphor perhaps pre mh2 modern where 5 color humans played mantis rider
I love Crim’s reaction to the first match. He doesn’t care that he won. He cares that his opponent lost.
Isn't that what we're all doing?
Man I remember when Tarkir dropped that mantis all those years ago. That card felt SO GOOD at the time. 3 mana 3/3 with all those beautiful keywords.
I also remember when Rider was soon outclassed by Abzan decks...I still hate siege rhino to this day!
That "haha they lost" made my day

Timeless would have been a cool addition if the Economy on Arena wasn`t as shit and you didn`t need like 30+ rare wildcards to craft a deck.

Reminds me of my good ol savage knuckle blade deck. Khans was the first time i played standard and my deck won me alot of tournaments at my LGS.
fast quick and brutal reminds me of that time behind the wendy's
This format really needs an anthology or even a full on timeless set release.
Why
No it needs to be even mildly affordable lol

“Memory Lapse is the real deal”
next game: “Ohhhh memory lapse!!”
Always love to see Mantis Rider show up and Bzzzzzzzz to victory!
....even if Spell Queller and others were cast a lot more.

this is the only reason i don't watch crim's videos much any more. bo1 is pretty bad, especially for timeless.
Crim's energy put a smile on my face every time! Can't help it man :D
No one expects the second inquisition!
The first crim video that I saw live. Bolt snap bolt mantis is peak magic.
Ah, Brineborn Cutthroat. Simic Flash back in 2019 was legit one of my favorite standard decks ever.
He was the first rare I got from their promo packs 😅
I do in a custom format centered around budget constraints with my friend group
One of my m8's plays 4 of mantis in his soldier deck, works really well, almost guaranteed dmg and the rest of us has to spend stuff removing it.
Mantis Rider killing Narset poetic
crim you should try out grixis shadow with lurras in this format, its omega cracked
Can we request a different back ground song 😢
that is some next lvl trashtalking
I see mantis rider, i press like
You're heard of Mantis Rider but have you heard of Savage Knucks?
Bowmasters for sure getting restricted
Me. I play my trusty 5c zoo in modern
I don't even know what mantis rider is..
“THEYRE SO GOOD” or you could just not play X/1 creatures in a bow master format lol😂
Lucky early. Lol. Love the vid.
…If you’re gonna play Mantis Rider, why wouldn’t you go for Explorer? That’d have the lowest power level you can play it in

Humans do
Can confirm, as a Pioneer Humans player

I'm so sick of Crim's awful thumbnail faces that I've been debating unsubbing from the channel so I stop seeing them
