Yup! I just wish man lands were still as good as they used to be, because before I was known as the field guy, I was the man land guy (mutavault plus faerie conclave in Merfolk). The issue is that there's too much cheap removal now and too much card advantage, and more fields lol. Thanks!

Thanks! 🙂

Happy to do so, glad you like it!

I tried one ring before, and it wasn't bad per se, it's just that it didn't make my matchup against any particular deck better, but did make my matchup against aggro decks packing burn worse (of which there are now more than there was back when I tested it). There's a reason Ring didn't end up getting banned. Sure it feels ban worthy when it's in your deck (Titan), but that's because you just need to draw enough combo pieces/protection like Caverns to overwhelm your opponent's defenses, then you win and never have to worry about losing to your own Ring. I don't have that luxury, I win at a snail's pace and usually can't race my own ring. Alternatively, we see ring in decks that either can gain a ton of life to offset the downside (especially Sheoldred decks), or in decks like 4 color Omnath that have life gain engines like Omnath and the ability to turn the corner quickly once they get control of the game and ideally also have at least a playset of free spells like Solitude so they can empty their hand efficiently after drawing so many cards. Lastly, about Wrenn and Ghost Quarter, after some more testing, I've already come to the same conclusion. Also, I've swapped Ghost Quarter for Blossoming Calm, which seems like a great way to protect myself from getting burned out and from mono red storm.

Glad to hear it!

Thanks!

Yes, it was cut for Phantom. Honestly though, I'm starting to find another card to be better... You're not going to believe it... but Crucible of Worlds has felt very solid so far.

Great video! Just out of curiosity, do you think Crucible is better than Restoration of Eiganjo or Phantom? How many copies of Crucible have you tried?

@@AverageDuck_ Thanks! I'm still in the testing process, so I'll reserve judgment until I get some more reps in!

@@Magic_M_Hayashi such a man of science! Keep us updated sir

@Magic_M_Hayashi oh I thought you switched the restoration of eiganjo with the inscribed tablet. I was about to tell you to try the crucible of worlds when I watched the video of control4daze titled "New Brew dismantled tier 1 modern decks." He was able to highlight the power of crucible worlds and the 8 fields, and it made me say, "This looks like an mhayashi kind of shenanigans." Looking forward to seeing your next video on mono white.

6 mana is a lot, but yes I've considered it because of how many bases it covers

Yes, it can be a bit exhausting. Honestly, I find I'm having better results when I only play 1 or 2 games at a time then take a break. It's very taxing to play for a full 5 game league straight. I'm not saying it's like the most big brained complex deck ever or anything, but it's just that winning requires constant awareness of what's going on and any small mistake can be very punishing. This deck is probably not recommended for beginners, I'll say that much.

All of the above have positives and negatives

Yay! (Also thanks, I just corrected the title)

Reliquary looks interesting for sure. But Phelia seems like it will just eat a bolt or push and die, at least most of the few creatures I already play seem to, but thankfully they all have ETBs that give me value even if they do. Definitely thanks for sharing, I might try reliquary in the future!

@@Magic_M_Hayashiyeah phelia eats bolts a lot but it having flash is really nice because they have less operant to interact with it, and it can get out of hand quick.

I was worried about Big Tefferi or a hardcast Shark Typhoon, sorry I didn't vocalize that during the match.

Thanks!
