no outro though? Shaaaame

@@KuryuxUngrateful and ignorant. Be quiet bro.

I want to see the reality. Even if the video doesn’t contain it I want you to talk about the deck honestly and rate it based on your experience.

Cgb forgetting his own rule...NO QUESTIONS!

Yeah that’s my gripe with most videos on stuff like this. Showing the honest gameplay might get less views from most people, but I know I at least appreciate it more and am far more likely to watch the whole thing

Very True!

Totally true. I've noticed there are certain times when certain decks work for me. Sometimes, no deck works at all and I just lose 70% of the time with any kind of deck. Sometimes aggro takes me up 3 tiers easily, sometimes control does. And then there always comes the point after climbing the ladder like crazy that I start losing like crazy. By now, once I lose 3 games in a row after having a super good run, I just close the game and continue playing the next day because I know that if I continue playing, I'll just end up losing all the progress I made, falling back to a 50% win rate. Or I'll try with a different deck and if that doesn't fix it, I continue the next day. Take what you have and stop going for more. That's actually a super helpful strategy to climb more consistently. Once you notice that you go into a losing streak, stop playing and start again another day. I don't know why it works, but it does. Also, the first game after entering a new tier is always a loss. I think it happened only a handful of times that I entered a new tier and won.

Yeah you’re not alone. You might be getting streaked on but remember the won winning isn’t the same player and is probably losing every other game too lol

I side it out sometimes 😜 and side int two swamps and three blood moon.

I second this!!!

He kept using bolt when he had skewers active. I would call those misplays. I think one game he might have won if he had had kept his bolt and used the skewer when spectacle was active.

That "no mulligan ever" rule it is quite baffling for a player of such supposed skills.

@@marioalcantara7156 he is more used to control mirrors and long games, where every single extra card is super important. A single extra card on average by turn 8 can be as much as a 10% difference in win rate which turns a 55% deck into a 45% deck. Unfortunately he is applying this thinking to a 4-5 turn game which means one or both players usually still has plenty of cards when the game ends.

It feels more worth it to me. I mostly play draft and piled up wildcards because I always felt like if I crafted a standard deck, those cards would be useless since I so infrequently dip into constructed. I felt none of that spending 16-20 wildcards on this format because I’ll always be able to play it

I made a mono W d&t deck had some of them unlocked .. and without unfair stuff like moxen, ancient tomb or the initiative it's very hard to win ... however .. a turn 1 stepmom or skrelv into t2 thalia on the play wins more than 80% of the games . I don't think I won a single match on the draw .. but I don't have a good collection and only did a bit less than 20 plays in bo1 plat1 .. was plat2 and geting close to plat3 so i stopped

in a world with orcish bowmasters, lot of fatal push, L.bolt.....she isnt survive

@@lucscorpion24 one can dream

Did you finished the whole tutorial part ? Might be time-gated too if your account is very fresh

@@marielebeau2829 I completed the entire tutorial twice, but it still didn't resolve. However, I managed to recover an old account, so for now, the issue is resolved. Thanks.

It’s playable but not particularly competitive

Three reasons I can think of. Kumano *needs* a creature on chapter 2 to be decent, and without it's strictly worse than Okiba IMO. This deck is not as likely to have a follow-up creature as RDW (and all the creatures it has are best played before your noncreatures). DRC also doesn't have haste, which makes putting counters on it a lot less valuable. Okiba pinging on the second chapter lets you enable Spectacle for free the turn after you play it. Being able to cast spectacle cards precombat matters a lot with DRC and swifty, and the more mana you have available the less likely you'll waste an impulse from LUTS. And last, drain is superior to burn in the mirror. In a racing situation, the first two chapters are a 4-life swing versus the 1-life swing from Kumano. Uniquely, it can also hit through The One Ring's protection.

@LordZurkov that was an extremely comprehensive answer that actually helped a lot lol. Rare youtube comments W.

Give the drawing player a free mulligan maybe?

@@algorithm1607 I think more "when this creature blocks" abilities, everything feels like an attacking trigger so who ever goes first usually attacks first so the snowball happens. Also more enter the battlefield if opponent has more life or more lands you get more benefit.
