This is a blue/red izzet Brawl deck featuring Ral, Monsoon Mage as the commander. This is a storm combo deck, it casts tons of spells to create big storm payoffs like Mind's Desire and Grapeshot. The latest set at time of recording is Modern Horizons 3, or MH3.

FYI: If your opponent is comboing, SHIFT + "Pass Turn" is the closest thing to "F6" on Arena. If you "hard pass turn", you won't ever get priority (except, I think, for the "Choose blockers" step of combat, and maybe also if they put something on the stack that targets your permanents).

I did not know about this, thanks lots! They really should just add the "Yield Through This Turn" button instead of hiding it behind a key modifier on a button. Either way I didn't know there was a way to pseudo hide priority checks, which is a minor annoyance but goes against the idea of being able to hide that you can do something at instant speed.

How ridiculous is it that in 2024, with all these "go infinite" decks, WotC has STILL not implemented a "NO, REALLY, I PASS ALL PRIORITIES UNTIL THE NEXT UNTAP PHASE, I DO NOT WANT TO RESPOND TO ANYTHING THAT COMES UP" button This was a 2017 issue. When the meta is literally just this solitaire crap, it's no longer acceptable that "pass turn" doesn't ACTUALLY PASS TURN.

I don't understand why arena does not work properly when you click auto pass and they still make you click through things. Why does it not work the way its supposed to? Obviously if you're clicking auto pass, you have no interaction and don't want priority passed to you. One of Arena's biggest issues I find.

I know it's really an unplayable format atm with the bird, cgb's brawl videos are entirely (except 1) nadu matchups. Really ruins things.

It's incredible how Nadu punishes you both for interacting and for not interacting with it. You just sit back while the opponent accumulates a million resources while also ramping to the moon. It must have an insane win rate against all the other commanders in its current queue. Also Nadu players abusing the fact that it's new so it's still queued against the weaker commanders. So toxic. Horrible play experience in Brawl at the moment. The best thing you can do is insta-concede, just refuse to play with them at all, they're just going to play solitaire anyway.
