No outro, so here it is... You're Cool

I faced Nadu this morning. Turn 4, they had 12 lands, 7 cards in hand, and 10 creatures. I missed 1 land drop. Fun

"Only" twice, cards fine guys, we nailed it

Not since Oko have I seen them design a card that was so clearly a mistake.

The first time I read Nadu when it was spoiled I misread it as it can only trigger twice a turn period. That it's per creature is just deranged and the designer of that card needs to have an assistant hired to sanity check their ideas because what the actual eff?

Why tf would the land come into play untapped??

The lands entering untapped had to have been such an obvious oversight. Fire that dude.

I don’t know how I feel about this card in regular Commander, the way it interacts with stuff like Shuko. “I guess I’ll equip and unequip this ummm, ten times, then I’ll play this creature I put into my hand and do the Shuko thing again. Then I’ll play these 3 0 cost creatures I put into my hand and do it 6 more times…”

I can’t believe that card is only 3 mana.

Never mind that the twice per turn clause is twice as good as it had to be, it will also be a pain in the neck to track in paper. Also this guy reminds me of Voja: he incentives board wipes instead of spot removal, which slows down games.

Thoughts on running Orvar? target your own creature with an instant or sorcery, get a copy, the copy can get two additional triggers from the commander.

Nadu is a good bird, but it's no Mesa Falcon.

It's funny because even if they ban this card the necrobloom has also hyperoptimized landfall decks. Stapling avenger of zendikar, field of the dead and life for the loam on one card for 4 mana is just not fine.

I saw you build this on livestream and kind of rolled my eyes at, but my god does this simic go hard

I actually just built this deck in paper to play some commander with my friends, and I went all out. I got the shuko, sylvan paradise, sea kings blessing, cyclonic rift, bristly bill, nantuko guy, scute swarm, displacer kitten, fetch lands...the works + all the other shenanigans to make it top tier minus the auto win thassas oracle (although a laboratory maniac seemed ok). Yet, after watching this video (which, for the first time ever while watching CGB content, I repeatedly skimmed forward to just see the final couple of turns of each game, since the matches were very uninteresting). It was CGB, winning EVERY game, in such an UTTERLY overpowered NO CONTEST sort of way! He just pulverized the opponents! It did not seem fun. For anyone involved! Just an, I win deck! My turns are gonna take too long because I'm constantly searching for lands and artifacts in my deck...here please cut, AGAIN! Wait, I'll counter that spell, draw/ramp a shit ton, no that removal won't work because I used some form of protection/phasing/blinking on it...and oh yeah I draw/ramp some more. Bam, a rift! Or shit I decked myself because I locked in the combo, and now Labratory Maniac says...I WIN! Because I have Arch of Orazca to draw from that empty deck. I haven't even played one game with my fully double sleeved and constructed Nadu "Maniacal Spiracal" deck yet, and I dont believe I should. A small part of me (the competitive a**hole part) does want to try this deck out, but the Magic loving guy, who likes having a healthy play group and good friends that enjoy playing with me, part...does NOT want to. Thanks for the insight CGB.

Finally, a card that can compete with Mesa Falcon as the king of flyers.

Wait, if this ability is on each creature you control, that means that if you target your creatures with March of Swirling Mist you'll get a trigger for each of them?

Me: *finally gets the song "Surfin' Bird" out of my head* CGB: "Haven't you heard? This bird is the word." Me: NOOOOOOO!

Can’t imagine this card stays legal in brawl for long. Played it the other day and in one turn I went from dominating to no chance at all.

30:18 "Oh no! i'm late for class!" and the whole game too, it seems LMAO

That is definitely a magic card

Balance Team Monkey at it again it seems...

I just love the ad at the end. It's perfection in every way, just like you and your decks ♥

You don't have to be tough to play Brawl, you just need to acknowledge it's mostly a gamble and stack your deck as best you can so the gambling favors you a little more.

Is Brawl all about scooping? People never die in this format they just scoop

Someone played this in a game of commander, it’s really annoying because they take forever but it’s not definitive so you shouldn’t skoop. Turn takes like 10-15 min

I don't know why it annoys me as much as it does. But you really need to put ivy into this deck. There is literally no reason not to 😂

The deck was already hilarious but the plug at the end, just pure gold man. Way to go!

Übersetzen OH NO !!i played against my favorite youtuber and didn't realize it! If I had known I wouldn't have scooped so early :D GG

I played it against it 4 times and lost 3 of them. Now I just concede before the game begins. I'm not ashamed. I'm hoping it wins enough to get put in hell-queue. I'm not salty, it's the strat

I'm wondering if it's possible to brick in a deck like this. It feels like you could build exclusively lands, protection spells, and blink spells and you'd still win. All of the other stuff just makes it a nigh unstoppable machine. Not really sure what you could do to beat this, maybe drannith magistrate? But then you still have a simic value pile to deal with... Anybody have any idea how one would deal with this card?

Just looking at this card makes me not want to watch the video, but it’s my daily dose of CGB, so I guess I’ll watch it anyway

The sponsored ad at the end was really top tier, well done

I'd recommend putting in ivy, gleeful spell thief! copies all targeted spells and lets you also target her, double the triggers per spell pretty much

Hey CGB! Been messing around with comboing Bristly Bill, Kami whispered hope and maybe awaken the woods. It can get pretty nutty! I would enjoy seeing what you would do with this combo.

Not running 0 Equip Cost cards -10 Competitive Credits.

This deck really needs a Venerated Rotpriest for the memes.

Does it have ward though?

That card is definitely going to see play in Modern

Simic value engine with no real wincon is back on the menu, boys

We need MORE COWBELL!!! 20:27

Nadu is the C in CEDH, which stands for CAW Elder Draw Highlander

Simic... I LOVE SIMIC!! MOAR SIMIC! AHHHHHHH!!!!! This was the most fun vid I've seen in ages. Makes me want to build that deck just for the funzies.

Today, I wanted to play some brawl. Got to concede 5 consecutive matchs against Nadu before playing vs. something different

Just conceded to ya with this deck (player = Fern, Roxanne deck). Bonkers build! Hope I did my best with my draws, but I was going for daily wins so I gave up when ya started floating 40+ mana per turn. 😂 Been following ya for a while and I think that's the first time I've matched against you. Hopefully I have better luck next time!

I have an Artifact deck i just brewed up and i think it broke the meta in 1v1 xD It's good against pretty mutch every popoular deck atm. I rarely comment on any videos and never share my decks anywhere, but i had to share this one because its been working wonders for me. And I want others to try it out. Please give me some feedback on how its working for you if you decide try it, and how to improve it if you have any ideas. So i hope you (people in the chat) will check it out :D 2x Skrelv 2x Three steps ahead 1x Eater of virtue 1x Collertor's cage 4x Mandible Justicar 2x Michiko's Reign of Truth 2x Machine over matter 4x Oaken Siren 4x Gold-Forged Thopteryx 2x Annex Sentry 2x Tinker's Tote 2x Akal Pakal, First Among Equals 2x Unctus, Grand Metatect 2x Assimilation Aegis 2x Urza, Prince of Kroog 2x Dollhouse of Horrors 2x Steele Seraph Mana: Do what you have but try to at least have: 2-4x Resteless Anchorage 2-4x Mirrex 1-2x The Mycosynth Garden

This is why Yu-Gi-Oh has non-targeting removal, will MTG follow?

Everybody's heard about the bird 😂😂 reminds me of the family guy episode. loved the reference Deck looks fun to me

Look, to be honest I've started turn 1 scooping to every Simic commander. It's by far, the most powerful colour combo in commander. Shoutout to Roxanne who is also a commander who's essentially immune to the commander tax. Commander gives you access to 1 card repeatably. Card advantage doesn't matter as long as you have mana. What's the best colour at generating mana? Green. Blue is currently the best pairing because it's the only colour that interacts with the stack. If the commander tax was "Sac a creature", "Discard a card", or something like "Lose X life", we'd see other colours emerge as the most powerful but no, they left it at mana and then let one colour be the best at generating mana.

That was all I hoped it would be. Freaking sick man

30:15 "Oh no! I'm late for class!" Ah, so that's why the game had to end so quickly, lol!

I personally avoided sword of forge and frontier in my Nadu deck, bcuz pro green meant some of my spells couldn’t target him

It'll be OK when Nadu's up there with Kinnan and Golos so I never have to see it.

If the Magic thing doesn't work you should really become a commercial spokesman. That Ultimate Guard bit at the end was 👨‍🍳 👌

That thumbnail lol!

Wow wizards just discovered that if you make a card totally over rate and have no downsides at all people will use it.. What will the think tank come up with next?!

Frankly I wanna see if you can pull of a Tamiyo brawl deck, since that one seems fun but I don't know if Arena has the cards to support her.

Imagine if they ACTUALLY allowed the 0 equip artifacts like Shuko or Lightning Greaves.

We demand a 2 hour video of Nadu shenanigans

Hell queue doesnt exist anymore, any commander i play ends up in hell queue

Unctus, Grand Metatect is wild here. Pay two life to target your creatures, repeatedly.

Even if it isn't used to combo at all, Nadu is still a 3/4 flier for 3 that replaces itself most of the time when it dies.

Wizards apparently drunk at the wheel and making me pine for the days when I was up against Kinnan. Now they just play 10 lands on turn 3. Can we ban this yet?

I love seeing CGB so surprised by his own deck he questions everything lol

What are the best cards against nadu ?

Simic: the color pair that gets a new broken card every few months. Like yeeeeesh.

It can't just be a 3-mana 3/4 Flying. Nope, it's got to simic value stapled on.

why u do not use ivy?

Ivy gleeful spell thief would be bonkers in here

Some of my friends lolll me when i saw the spoiler and Say this is completely busted😂

When they kill Nadu it doesn't even matter because that process usually means you got a bunch of extra lands so the +2CC is irrelevant.

Dude you've created a monster. This is wild. I played the same list, got 10-0 in 1/2 hour of game time. WTF.

love the ad at the end, reminds me of old used car commercials.

This is nuts 🤯

I know nothing about Tamiyo but her voicelines are adorable. What a nerd ❤

I just can't believe that it triggers off of your opponents' abilities and spells too. There's just no drawbacks.

mawmaw17 didn't learn the phrase "always bolt the bird" as a kid and it shows.

Oh, THIS is why I keep getting run over by Nadu's in Brawl now... It's always fun seeing which legendaries are the hell queue worthy ones of each set lol

They should make a new format called Nadu. Which is just like brawler but you can only choose Nadu as your commander. And ban Nadu so hars in brawler, you cant even name it with things such as Curse of silence

Ok lads, in cedh, is it better than kainan?

Is Grenzo actually good? I haven't been watching much lately but I've been bodying him when i play.

Did CGB crafted this deck? Or is it someone else's idea?

Nadu popping off is literally just modern YuGiOh

What happen to the commander episode that was posted a couple days ago???

Ok, that was a very good ad, ngl I always skip but I rather that ad than anything else

you should see nadu in duel commander :))

I'd like to hear from any computer scientists in the chat but is it because they coded a blink effect in such a way that it actually creates a new object and removes the original one? so when the opp conceded it just created a new tamiyo and the process got interrupted in the middle? It's always fascinating to see what's actually going on under the hood

37:39 Best reaction

why cant I find that legendary creature mythweaver poq? neither or card market or scryfall

Awesome deck

only watched 2min til now, but you didnt include the simic otter in your decklist, i think hes super broken with that deck :D

We're playing a Bird Wizard & not including Oracle? Sadge

Holy shitsnacks, that's a crazy pile....

This makes Eldraine’s Oko standard look like child’s play.

So the bird is, in fact, the word.

This commander is bonkers 😵

Wow it looks like Mesa, Winged Falcon is pretty overtuned.

I´m fine with powercreep, but they are powersprinting it down

Without even seeing gameplay, this seems awfully gross

you should show an YGO or HS player the new MH3 cards have them take a guess if its broken. would be reallly funny.
