@@TheBreachBoysMTG do you have a primer or guide on how to play it correctly? Or do you stream mtgo on twitch? I’m thinking about building this as my first cedh deck and I’ve not played magic since 2018/2019 (played legacy/modern competitively before quitting).

Rog/Thrasios player here, congrats on your win and thanks for the comment on the deck. The beauty of [[Order of succession]] is that it doesn't require you to have a creature in play (helps when being under a Drannith Magistrate), and it doesn't target (so screw ward and effects like that). Regards.-

Great video! Thanks for breaking down the meta and how some the decks work. Just getting back into magic and most of these new cards were/are foreign to me, so this was very insightful.

Gratz again! You're the GOAT Ian. The Tom Brady of cEDH. Tom Brady took a terrible franchise to a Championship to cement his already impeccable legacy. You must complete the prophecy Ian. Orzhov needs a hero. You my friend, are destined to win a major tournament with only white and black mana at your disposal. (TLDR: Major gratz on another huge acomplishment and i would love to see you give it a go with something janky like Orzhov!)

Sometimes you don't need an outlet for a Hullbreaker horror. Sometimes men just want to see the world burn (Bounce things back to hand for control). Glad to see my two pet decks Pantlaza and Sauron make it to top 16!

Is Kinnan the only deck that can take advantage of Trinisphere due to being able to produce an absurd amount of mana? Or can Trinisphere be used in other decks that like to hold up mana for interaction and also a creature that has an activated ability?

I got a totally random question about the manabase, why maximize the blue fetches over the green? Wouldnt you want more chances to fetch basic forest incase of blood moon? I'm probably missing something coming from a legacy pov. Also, congrats!!

@ComedIanMTG 5 ай бұрын

Blue is just the more relevant color for the list overall. Especially when you consider how much green is made off of cradle and our green dorks

@hugi_tout 5 ай бұрын

@@ComedIanMTG Its pretty even according to the list breakdown on moxfield. I guess my min/max brain is debating the importance of a t1 blue source for a counterspell v a t1 green source for a dork. Its pretty irrelevant outside of an opp t1/2 jamming blood moon/back to basics; 9 out of 10 you're probably fetching the trop.

I'm always wondering how a multiple players format can be played in a really competitive environment? It seems to me with try hards, it's proned to have collusion. Or even, bad threat assessment from opponents/king making. Does your magic skills are what makes you a great player or it's more your political skills?

@samuelkyle9894 5 ай бұрын

I am telling you, I’ll scream it till the end of time(aka maybe summer, I dont know what wizards are gonna print), the non polymorph versions of thrasios/rog (and Urza) are significantly underrated. The value of having a guaranteed 1 card combo is invalidated if you can successfully craft a critical mass of other combos so that a combo still comes along by turn ~2-3. A similarish argument can be levied against the Thrasios/Dargo list, that the one card combos Dargo provides is less valuable than the cards rog allows you to abuse. You still have all the grindy goodness for the mid to late game that thrasios and temur offers as a whole, in combination now with an early game package that can rival all but rog/si in speed & even then rog allows ThRog to interact with rog/si. Too many lists are falling for the midrange dream, forgetting about all the threats turbo decks can dish out. (Wouldn’t be surprised to see even a shimmerZur list make a resurgence tbh) Monogamous ThRog can just win at and present interaction at every speed

But even though Riled's is one of the lists on the cEDH DDB and now Mikey's the one who gets credit for "trying it first" and now it's "super cool"? Kinda sad to see.
