I was thinking of doing a estrid deck and including sythis in the 99. Would it be solid enough to play with the Planeswalker while adding blue to the deck? Or am I better off just going with Sythis. I'm not partial to the playstyle. I'm more curious which would be more fun and consistent go pilot.
@@AndrewWoodford honestly I wanna do something different from my normal playstyle which is primarily creature decks. So I figured Estrid would be a fun twist. I'm just curious if she will hold up with the game being so different then when she was first released
@@kenkokuten4887 If you pick Estrid - I would go a stasis winter orb stax route like derevi - or a fast ramp with big scary taxing creatures like elesh norn and hate bears
When Jimmy casts his Finale of Devastation for 3 why couldn't hidden search for a response with his copy. You never mentioned the Wandering Archaic trigger, was it missed? I looked at the decklist and with Manglehorn already out his only answer at that point was Opposition Agent which he could've used to stop Jimmy from winning.
I’m curious about it as well. The Opposition Agent may have been discarded already. It’s hard for me to tell what lands and how much mana Jimmy actually has with the proxies. I initially thought they paid for the Wandering Archaic, but that seemed to be for Heliod’s Activation.
Would it have been correct on Fernando’s final turn to copy the Chain of Vapor to disrupt Jimmy’s board if he was concerned about him winning immediately afterwards?
Hey! I think so, to be honest, but I also was out of wincons at this point (Venser and Basalt were both into the GY, and Sun Titan to maybe get the Monolith back was exiled). I'm my mind, it was going to make the game much longer and and was hit too hard (rightfully so) to even think about a comeback. Maybe I gave up too early, but I was under a lot of pressure for many turns, and was running out of answers.
@@ShakaWakala Oh gotcha, I watch a lot of cEDH content but I don’t play myself so I’m less familiar with what the decks need to win! Thanks for the insight!
Ahh... Sorry... I have not updated it in a while... I've been a little frustrated with his performance (you can see clearly in this vid, you get ahead but cannot close the game), so I have been trying cards here and there, not updating the list. I personally think you'd need to go the more value oriented route instead of stax, and really hope you fly under the radar a bit, but yeah... It's hard. Brago is not is a good spot, and hasn't been for a while (IMO)!
I watch every episode with Sythis!
hell yeah Sythis!
Sythis is bae
Really cool to play in person!

What play style are you looking for? cEDH Estrid, Tuvasa, and Sythis are all pretty different.

Estrid is good, we did a deck tech on Jimmy's older budget version but it's a very solid list
@@DeadOnBoardMTG I will go give it a look. Thank you guys for your videos! Always a pleasure watching you all sling spells.

Actually I didn't see that... whoops
Gotta love some self-taxing every now and then
I'm taking the Archon out lol... I can't break parity that easily tbh! =) Or did you mean the Thorn or Amethyst?

That wouldn't be the Battle Standard in CT would it?
Yes it would be
@@DeadOnBoardMTG I'm from that area too. Cool to know you guys are close by! Love the content.
that's hilarious. Good game
Sythissss - good game peeps :-)
Good game
So the brago list is the same outdated list? Give brago some love 🥺
The video is old but I thought the moxfiled link is updated if not I can update that as Fernando does update his list semi often

@@ShakaWakala indeed but hopefully someday it will get better or we will find a way to make it viable
