I just saw it too. Insane run, and super cool he's the only one to ever do it.

@@leanderthal1138 What are you talking about?

What video? I can't seem to find it

@@leanderthal1138 I watched the whole thing. If you're going to make a point that someone takes into consideration, you have to elaborate. Otherwise you're just saying words.

​@@leanderthal1138 You seem fun

The same thing happens with The One Ring. For whatever reason you can't respond to your own The One Ring upkeep trigger

@@manhattanblockade8544 if you set a stop on your beginning phase you can!

@@screamcollector I've had it in full control and still fail to let me respond to the trigger. I'll try this next time thx

Eldrazi isn't even op. Writhing crysalis is but energy and artifact aggro are both strong too

@@leroyj62 Yes, energy and artifact aggro can be good if it's open and the good cards are opened enough. But Eldrazi is good when you are one of 3 people at the table forcing it. That's not the same. That's Ikoria cycling all again. Sure you can beat the cycling deck from a table where it was not open. But if you face the cycling deck from a table where it was open it was miles ahead of every other archetype. And even the forced cycling deck in the wrong seat was way too good still for a draft that should have been a train wreck

@@Neon-chan2015yeah I’ve tried forcing it when it was extremely not open just to see and I still get a functional deck. writhing chrysalis would be a bomb at rare but for some reason is a common

I hope to one day play u it's crazy I been watching it videos like crazy and then that video popped up from tcg player yesterday and I had to watch it

Medallion is fucking unplayable in 99.9999999% of decks. Including this one.

@@darthsphincter909 all the medallions are unplayable in limited

Limited is a whole different logic than constructed. Slots are precious, medallions are very close to useless

Yes, medallions are usually weak. It would’ve been great in this deck though

yes he does

Sure do, heading to Amsterdam for the pro tour next week

It is the worst color, but not by that much and it is often very underdrafted.

That’s the beauty of draft. The worst archetype can become the best deck at the table if only one person is drafting it.

Jeskai energy and green/x/x eldrazi are the best decks in the format not to surprising he drafts them the most. There are a lot of cool synergies and combos in the format I have been enjoying it but if I open the early great energy or eldrazi I usually hard force them. The Crabfather is a sick card though!!!

I'm no expert, but I think a big factor is that Ritual is much less reliable since it only looks at your top seven cards and those change every time. With Nightmare, you can set up loops where you get back the same thing again and again, like Accursed Marauder for example.

(although that Reliquary synergy was super sweet!)

I think it’s best home is in blue black tbh bc you can draw so many cards that drawing it early typically wont matter since you always have stuff to play. Also, there are so many sacrificeable cards in that color pair, such as the recursive signpost common, accursed marauder, and retrofitted transmogrant. i could be wrong but i played it recently in a blue black deck and it was an exceptional value engine

also if you can get the good blue energy cards that can also draw cards like tune the narrative and bespoke batttlewagon, there’s a lot more energy left over for the nightmare

This is incorrect. They have a special rule for bestow, specifically for the feel-bads IMO. 702.102d As an Aura spell with bestow begins resolving, if its target is illegal, the effect making it an Aura spell ends. It continues resolving as a creature spell and will be put onto the battlefield under the control of the spell's controller. This is an exception to rule 608.3a.

@@akamesama you should let the Arena dev's know because i've killed creatures in response to the bestow and it fizzled.
