i think it's hardcoded to be 95% of the time in opening hands, and also to being able to draw 3 or 4 of them in less than 9 turns

😂🤣😂🤣😂

Lol!!!

Pro tip: Splash some red mana in every deck just so you can play it.

I wonder if it has to do with the hand smoothing algorithm with arena bc the mana value of adventure spells are easy to curve with.

Normally I try to stay pretty focused on videos I watch, none of this "watch stuff while I fold laundry" stuff, but this was the one game I wasn't paying so close attention to what the opponent was doing...oops. To be fair, they didn't give me that much time to do so.

The "Oh, oh..." in the end was priceless! kkkkkkkkkkkk

haha yeah that's absolutely overpowered

yeah that seems pretty dumb!

🚬 🦀

That's a good point!

Yeah Mill to me is just a modern take on burn where all the numbers are 3 times bigger.

@@jerodast Yeah, it's a good way to look at it. Just like infect. Different but kinda the same.

Try "Xanathar, Guild Kingpin" for another win condition. Mill there deck, and play there deck against them. Salt on top of Salt. :)

Thanks for sharing!

this deck is garbage. i played 5 games: 2x elves = lost, auras = lost, goblins = lost, rakdos = lost

Maybe I was lucky. But I will keep play with this deck often

Same, but thats why I love having gaea's blessing in every historic deck as a one off. Best feeling ever is getting to the last few cards of your library just to have gaea be on the bottom put everything back into your library.

@@grandfathernurgle2840 Love the username! Sisters here lol

The only solution is more mill

So true

What is Runestone even doing in a best of one deck? I don't know the meta, is there some play-everything-from-the-yard deck?

what did you take out?

@@RussWilgus I took out 2 Tasha's Hideous Laughter and 1 Drowned Secrets and threw in 3 Bruvac the Grandiloquent. Its worth it because Bruvac makes kicking Maddening Cacophony mill the opponents ENTIRE library since half their library times two is well you know...

@@rcheysnarfs2747 haha, that's even more evil. Thank you!

Funny things is while testing the deck in the play queue I faced that card more than once.

Well, there's Clear the Mind. But that's assuming you draw it before it's milled.

@@Rusaarules Sure, but being a sorcery, we would have to deal with things like Ashiok and Tasha's Laughter yet.

@@LegenVD algorithm was testing if you really wanted to make this monstrosity. 😆

@@ronzonirafael True, but it is still an answer.

Consider or drowned secrets. I dropped consider, I'm not looking to be good, I'm looking to be lucky.

It's not the best with Hideous Laughter and found it better to avoid creatures, especially if they don't necessarily mill anything right away.

@@LegenVD Thanks for the quick answer. I can see your reason especially in the fast historic meta.

We can only hope.

Couse he lost those games without any chance.

You edit out the first 3 losses to red aggro

🙄👏

Yeah could be solid in the deck for sure.

Yes, can see it slotting in nicely. Recorded this before Dominaria sadly.

@@LegenVDI'd guess it is wise to have 4 of them? Is it ok to remove 2 Cacophony, 1 Ashiok and 1 Laughter for that, or you'd remove something else, may I ask?

Probably just means “really fast”

It usually denotes a high degree of specialization in the deck's nominal strategy. e.g., the recent "rogues mill" standard deck could be considered a hybrid tempo/mill strategy since it could win by milling or by attacking, whereas this deck can be called "turbo mill" since pretty much all the cards just mill, and milling is the only way this deck plans to win.

It's short for "turbo xerox" which is like a 20-30 year old and still very popular piece of MTG theory. Basically the idea is to play less lands and lots of cheap cantrips. This way you're as likely to hit your land drops but can also find any other card more easily. The strategy is extra good if you can make other use of the cheap spells like in a delver or prowess deck. I have no idea why LVD called this one turbo though, as it doesn't follow the principle.

Makes sense. Thanks for all the kind answers!

Usually need a reason to play Opt over Consider. Getting rid of bad cards is great when you end up shuffling the deck.

Indeed, didn't have it yet when this video was recorded.

Yes but they would have still gotten to scary their deck for 1.

@@alexcebollero No they wouldn't since that would trigger only if Trelasara was on the battlefield when the trigger of the lifegain resolved since the ability is "When you gain life get a counter and scry 1"

Could definitely see it slotting in.

That card wasn't on Arena when this deck was built, this is a very outdated video.

Too slow for Historic.

Depends which play style you like!

I went for green 💚 stompy

You can save ur crabs

Recorded this before Dominaria, but still prefer Fading Hope for Scry and targeting our own creatures.

I talk about it in the intro.

I want to see him face mono black magic some day and fail to mill out by just 1 card.

@@Big_Dai no because I’m first.

@@Big_Dai Y U MAD ♥️

How old are you that such a thing matters to you?

@@theaeskey2502 You are not, it seems. Check the "newest" comment and scroll down

@@myojinofnightsreach346 yes i am.

Look, there are 1k+ ways to make a deck, and you can't please everyone. Let's not be dismissive just because you think you know it all.

@@TheTrooper424 1k+ is quite an understatement. There are something like 20 000 unique cards that can build around 10^14000 different legal decks give or take a few thousand zeros. Even counting just the ones legal in historic that someone has actually played the number is probably over 10k.

@@TheTrooper424 yes and i am not being dismissive but in historic you need to do things every turn because turn 3 everything is over example heliod combo neoform combo and so on. But i am a fan of legenvd and i loved he making a mill deck
