12:30 CGB Pretending to topdeck his make dissapear is top tier psychological warfare. What an evil way to induce tilt.

The ending to game 4 against mono blue its incredible! There's like 7 lines but only one of them let's you win.

The amount of times I fast forward by trying to tap the pets is silly.

26:23 may have been the best example of CGB being a legit MTG player i have seen in 3 years of watching the channel.

Good to see that despite all the flooding, screwing, and mono-redding you managed to soldier on.

As a faeries player in standard from ages ago, I have watched the video and plan to pick up this deck. I love the throwback to the playstyle Thanks for the excellent content.

I was playing the 3rd blue/white deck. Just wanted to respond to a couple of the points. I actually didn't have a second White Sun's in the deck to get with Invasion. I can definitely see how the double Mirrex activation may have been a better choice over flashing back Deluge, but i was only holding land at that point. Either way, pretty sure I'd have been smoked if you had drawn a few lands. Love the deck and the videos ❤

I really enjoy the control player mindset you bring to aggressive decks. I not only climb but enjoy playing the mono Red deck you made a while back. It has a clear goal yet has enough plays to keep me engaged in the game. Wonderful work!

Real question, has anyone here ever roped? I've never done it myself but I feel like every 3rd or 4th player ropes me out when they lose.

I love how he set up a video for a control killer soldiers deck for a Friday! He had to show the deck, so he chose the endstep of his upload schedule! Perfect timing, as always!

Hahahaha, remembering the finale of the first season of American Idol at 17:49

you surely had fun, didnt expect the deck to perform so well. nice one

That win against Dimir at 57:30 was beautiful

Sweet deck! Thx CGB.

Thanks for the grind and daily video. Even though this pile makes me sad, I love azorious

Was just looking for a solider deck lol. Also, where do you get that wanderer icon?

I like decks that can swiss army knife their spells to suit different situations so I am for sure picking this up....but probably in paper xD I'm in a control and combo heavy LGS so this seems like it could restore my fun without eating into my Commander resources much.

"MY WAY"-Finn

Would love to see some Breach decks!

This is very close to my list. Yes, you CAN get to mythic VERY quickly with it.

I hope we get some more Az flash creatures next set, there is almost a really fun flash deck with some decent payoff like the new tag team creature from aftermath

:) the opening is great.

Would love to see a Taigam, Oujutai Master control commander deck

Do you think wandering emp is worth it?

I just got my one copy of adakar wastes yesterday-ish

I find that March works well against those board wipe cards.

Destroy control and agrro, thx cgb to create this monster

Hey CGB could you some day please do a orzhov deck with the mimic being that all it’s creatures have defended? Thanks 😊

Played with this deck for a few hours today, its really good. The only bad match up I've ran into is selesnya enchantments... its REALLY bad XD It also struggles with not having good removal in certain spots. Lots of two for one solutions or just stalls. I found I like to run two archangel Elspeth's as well. Soldier tokens she makes fit right in and have good incidental lifelink, pluss she buffs harder for the same mana. Cut either a fading hope and an emperor or fading hope and a land. Good build, flash soldiers is fun. Watching people scoop to the Harbin after you've carefully wrestled the opponent into the perfect spot is pure soulfood.

1:05:06 It can. And don't call me Shirley.

this deck is fun

Is this just UW Rogues in current standard? Feels like it plays the tempo game the same way...i.e. basically everything at flash speed

wondering when you will be doing more of the lord of the rings i was really enjoying watching the streams

I love play control but I think I'm going to love more to crush control ❤😂

Seeing you play soldiers and constantly get mana screwed just feels so right. Lol

What is wrong with the shuffler?. Been getting mana scrued or mana flooded very often.

Was that a Killers reference at 18:22?

I read an article on reddit, well I read the TL;DR, about an investigation into the shuffler. They had analyzed about 1 million games apparently, and according to the TL;DR from a comment it said that if you keep a hand with 2 lands you're very likely to be mana screwed, and if you keep a hand with 4+ lands you're very likely to be mana flooded. This is supposedly because of how the shuffler groups lands and cards together. This article is a few years old now however. But, from my limited experience, of my own games, and watching youtubers like yourself, there seems to be something to this. Apparently if you mulligan once, it can fix the shuffle. And I assume that if you play a card early that forces a reshuffle of the deck it might fix it as well. I don't know if there is any truth to it. But just from how so often you get multiple copies of the same card close together and from what I've seen the mana screw and mana flood seems to follow the trend of keeping 2 vs 4 lands. So the sweet spot should be keeping a 3 land starting hand. The thing is I don't know if there is any truth to this. But even if there isn't. Even a perfectly random shuffled deck can often struggle to draw lands in time. Just from the statistics alone. I mean even with 27 lands and starting with a 2 land hand it's only 47% chance that it's going to be a land on the first draw. Followed by 48%, then 49%. So you only have to miss two or three coin flips to be completely screwed.

Could you do an oops all Ajani deck Using all of the versions of Ajani please

Computer has chosen 26 for you as the minimum lands you must have.

Or the highway?

luv WU soldiers simple as

Elspeths smite seems a smidge better for some matchups. 4 fading hope is a lot of fading hope.

For whatever reason this deck makes me think of "Never Gonna Stop" by Rob Zombie.

has anyone tried this out in explorer?

90 minutes of tempo? We’re eating good today

Since when did the Oracle avatar replace Jace?

the salt in the last game is unreal, mono red is always salty

Does anyone know why did he target his own creature with soul partition at 26:06? He doesn't have mana to cast it for the augmented cost, so it's not like it would work as a blocker.

Haven’t seen Esper Legends in a while, either from you or your opponents. I’d like to see that deck again, maybe with comments about why it’s fallen off in the Bo1 meta.

Love the content. As a new player, it's great seeing you play a different deck every day. Which one would recommend a newish player use to climb the ladder? I have 12 rare, 12 mythic wildcards, and am looking for something upgradable. Only current deck is budget mono blue.

i sent you a mono blue deck i think you'd enjoy playing, even if it never becomes a video I implore you to take it for a spin. Its the one you reacted to with "not like this!"

Tried this in Silver (haven’t opened arena in months) and immediately lost every game to mono black due to oops all removal + Sheoldred.

Im trying to find some good explorer content

CGB you should sweep boards not wrecking them

dont worry ill never play blue white cause someone's gotta play white green. i will make this sacrifice for the world.

I LOVE this deck. beautiful spin on an overly used and boring meta deck.

Am I the only one that sees a diaper on cgb in that opening scene ? He literally has a mythic logo diaper on….

These missed lands on the play are beyond comprehension. Playing a 3 mana or less permanents deck and always having 2 of the 3 big pay off cards in my first and second hands is also pretty annoying.

I will not play this deck. I will just show this to all my friends and they will probably play it 😂

Hey! I’m in a cgb video! Playing my least fav deck :(

Como puede ser que la mayoría de veces salgas primero ? Luego juego yo y me pegan un repaso de segundo que flipas

This is one of the reasons why I like CGB. He doesn't just dislike mono-red; he dislikes mono-red's ethos. He doesn't just play control; he actually thinks when playing magic. There will always be players who just play their cards out from a netdeck and depend on luck as to whether they win or get boardwiped... but I'm glad we have players like CGB to show them how someone who actually likes playing Magic does it.

Arena shuffler up to it's antics again. I really fucking hate that I cannot build a deck in arena like I would in paper...

Boomers and older are just wrong! The world wasn't "better" 60 years ago. CGB works very hard at what he does and has become very successful at it AND he actually gets to enjoy it on a very regular basis (daily? multiple times per day?). Not true on the automotive assembly line or down in the coal mines.

One of the very few Aggro decks I've found entertaining to watch

I really like this deck but Arena seems to want to punish you just for playing it

Good thing I play Alchemy and this deck has zero hope of survival there

People roping is one of the many reasons i don't play ranked. These subhumans think they can waste your time just because theirs is pointless and insignificant. As soon as I see it come out on a near win, I just concede, given there is absolutely no difference between winning and losing in these games.

14:55 thank god nobody watch this video... 49k viewers ! oops

They should just call Arena, Soldier the gathering. Where we do all the math for you, and whatd you know, it equals "YOU WIN!" YAYYY....

SMALL BRAIN ACTIVITY.

Oh look at me i make people quit by pulling alog of soldiers... IT DOES ALL THE WORK SO YOU DONT HAVE TO!! WOOOOW youre sooo gooood. You should join a tourny!

Soldier decks- Pull cards, do math, win.☝🤓 If you have no style, no taste for lore or a sense of adventure, if you just want to win by pulling cards and putting them down. THEN SOLDIERS ARE FOR YOU!!! 🎉🎉🎉 You+Tokens+Enchants= YOU WIN!!!! YAYYY

Please... stop making videos! I need to work! XD

still supporting this broken tripe? shame

This proves how unimaginative and lame everyone on top in Arena is. Its the same OP soldier bs over and over... SOOOO BORRRIIING..
