I love that you don't put spoilers in your title like a lot of people... makes it so much nicer to watch. Great content great play. Couple things I saw, I think looting is a pet card maybe but i think deadly dispute is a strict upgrade in the deck. there was no time this whole league that the looting would have been better than a dispute and there were zero times it was actually good, even if you get a tiny value putting a strands in the grave its not great. @2:06:44 I think this was a bad attack, one lesson i learned a while ago is "who is the beat-down" we were definitely not the beat-down this match and have end game inevitability, meaning we are on defense and preserving life. it didn't matter this one but block ephemerate was 100% better to save the 3 life rather than get the 2 damage in.
@SnapBolt
@SnapBolt 9 күн бұрын
@@bobsmith-gn7ly I don’t like watching as much after I know it’s a 5-0 so I try and avoid spoilers when I can and still provide some hype. As far as deadly dispute, what are you sacrificing to it? Blues? Inspectors? Plus adding more black cards, your mana is going to be worse. I actually don’t like looting in general, discard strands can really help speed you up, allowing you to tap out for monarch and initiative creatures early. I try going down to 1 looting in the next video though

@@SnapBolt as a 2 of it runs the roll of flood prevention and a "counter target removal spell" but when you need to dig sac an artifact land is often better than a creature, but sometimes a creature is better. its not going to be an early game play most of the time so i don't think the black requirement of it is a big deal, I think you only actually cast looting a couple times and it rotted in hand most the time, and the one time you did you had to discard stuff you didnt want to. i think any actual card advantage spell is better there. even a red draw 2 like a wren's resolve or something.

I've liked the deck before, but now with the Rat lock it feels even cooler, and I'm considering bringing the deck to a local tournament this week. I don't like Inspiring Overseer. 3 mana and only 1 toughness is just a pretty bad rate, especially if you compare it to the rat. I think they could be replaced by another Inspector and a 4th Galv Blast or maybe a 3rd Cast Down instead to deal with Chrysalis. I'm still kind of unsure whether or not Looting is the right discard outlet for Strands. Maybe Blood Fountain instead? The Blood can discard strands and it makes Familiar really cheap. Also being able to recur 2 creatures in the late game might be a better use for excess mana rather than flashing back looting and discarding the lands, but idk about that one. The Overseer definitely has to go Imho.

@@AlZHomie yeah, I’ve been feeling similarly. The fact that it’s a cantripping creature with flying has been nice for ‘closing’ out games and trading with opposing familiars.

​@@SnapBoltI have a terminate mainboard, moved to only thraben charm, no dawnbringer, and have lone missionaries sideboard. I found that the extra lifegain is great against agro decks as well as thraben charm being a removal spell. I personally like thraben a lot here and would consider running 4 between main and sideboard just because of its versatility. I do find it interesting running so many dawnbringers along side thraben, I might've underestimated dawnbringer. If you'd like to chat about the deck and or work on it together I'd love to, I really think the deck has promise and could be put on the map in terms of meta.

Been testing this list since the moment you posted on Twitter. I was a huge fan of the previous boros version as you know. Lol. This list I like the thraben charms are very crucial I think.

question for you, why are cards like dog umbra not playable? just creatures like murmuring mystic with other triggers are too common and need a for sure answer to it? that card seems like the best version i have seen of a pacifism type effect. Also thought of an interesting card for the faithless looting slot... Rowan's grim search. if you don't want to sacrifice anything you don't have too, and its instant, and digs pretty deep if you really need something specific... going 6 cards deep for 3 mana is kinda big though, chump with an inspector, grim it away, 6 looks at a removal for the creature beating you down... that seems pretty good, also this is a pseudo combo deck with the rat lock now, so finding the missing piece might win a lot of games.
