Love how LegendVD casually pulls off Amalia's ult when he forgets it even exists

@merke323 7 ай бұрын

Ah, the Amalia ultimate was glorious! It would definitely deserve an animation in old arena style

@InsomniacDream88 7 ай бұрын

@@merke323 That's why I like playing the historic modes. The animations is the best reason to play Arena sometimes.

I love the flavor win of this cult of clerics that secretly worships a monstrous horror slug as their deity. You can just imagine the Shadow-Rite screaming something along the lines of "BLESS US WITH YOUR PRESENCE, GREAT UNCLEAN ONE!" at 11:00 Also, that casual Amalia nuke coming in clutch against the tokens deck

The original "surprise slugs" cleric deck was interesting so I was keen to see the upgrades! Good to see a second payoff now. I was actually considering dreadfeast demon as a second pay off in your original deck.

@LegenVD 7 ай бұрын

Dreadfeast was a consideration, won't be great vs sweepers but can be another nice target for creature decks besides Toxrill.

@Thomsco 7 ай бұрын

Luka, you're really the epitome of playing to your outs; one of your strengths for sure. You're a magician. Some situations I think, there's no way he gets out of this. And 90% you DO. that's also the youtuber thing, but still, very impressive. Fun to watch, and educational ofc

@irreleverent 7 ай бұрын

You mention pretty early on flashing ward onto a creature in response to removal, and I just wanted to give a quick mention that that's not how Ward works. Ward triggers when the spell is cast, so by the time you know you need it, it's too late to flash it in.

Good point!

The 3-drop slot is heavily contested in this archetype but Sentry can be very nice in some matchups!

Toxi slug boy will be my favorite creature as long as its in standard. I don't care if it's actually good. It's so damn fun and cool. I feel like it's overkill but the sludge monster synergizes with it well but usually irrelevant even if its extra cool

@letswatchification 7 ай бұрын

I run him in table edh and sludge monster is an absolute favorite in that deck

@bryantan4228 7 ай бұрын

11:34 Opponent should win this game. At 9:47 they accidentally made their Graveyard Trespasser trigger fizzle by forgetting to decline the target on Restless Cottage. Pay attention to your triggers people.

@Malek303 7 ай бұрын

It's a nice deck but in the gameplay you didn't face any sweeper control build it seems because while the deck seems fun it looks like it would end flatlined by any control sweeper based deck

@CyberBuster93 7 ай бұрын

This deck is slimier than a Nickelodeon Kid's Choice Awards xD

@njnjhjh8918 7 ай бұрын

and with cards from Historic you can make Toxrill and the slug horror tokens into honorary clerics! this wouldn't do a lot, but it's late and I think it's funny

Raffines tower to help activate Toxrill’s ability? Or too slow?

@draconocor1309 7 ай бұрын

Match 4 it might have been better to name Horror for Throne- no more clerics with triggered abilities in hand, and Toxrill coming up soon- probably putting all your eggs in one basket, but wouldn't it have been fun to put two slime counters per turn, and two slugs per kill?

So I'd just like to throw out the idea of doing a zombies deck with Roaming Throne, if you'd be willing to take a request. Bonus points, Necroduality copies Zombies on ETB and not cast, so Throne on Zombie makes 2 thrones and gets really silly really quickly.

Not really much better at the 1 spot. Ollenbock escort ok with spirit but minister probably better in most cases

@-Karnage 7 ай бұрын

yeah, I know you lose out on life gain but I would go with Evolved Sleeper instead.

@danielstein8769 7 ай бұрын

Sleeper is too mana hungry when you want to build a board. It's honestly an overplayed card for how easily you are punished for dumping 4 mana into it for a 3/3, let alone 7 to draw 1 card. And if you don't spend any mana on it it's a vanilla 1/1. I think it's a bad card period but it sure does see a lot of play. It's a win more card and not exactly synergistic here as it's best in a tempo/control shell. There's not really a play pattern for this deck where I would want it on turn 1 and after that there is better things to do with your mana.

@LiveLongAndProsperHonestly 7 ай бұрын

I will never understand why more players don't run the peacekeeper card.

@honestabe411 7 ай бұрын

It’s very good but does seem overlooked

@Icameron259 7 ай бұрын

It's at its best when you are playing a deck with a decently fast clock against a slower deck, but control is relatively rare in best of 1 so I can understand why people might not bother with it there. I would probably run like 2 in the maindeck with the other 2 sideboard in a generic Best of 3 white creature deck.

@JamesBrown-xb7yi 7 ай бұрын

these decks are so useless, try going up against one control with a sunfall or depopulate an crap decks like this have no chance every tit in this game has about 10 -15 removal spells in every deck its so bad the meta

@d.manowdxngw.s.n7823 7 ай бұрын

Wtf are you smoking? Control are not meta right now, and against aggro this deck have a very good chance to win and most importantly it's a very fun deck to play.
