I miss it, but I don't miss hasbro

There is a limited amount of fun to be had, and I intend to have all of it.

the wincon is your opponent selling their collection and only playing limited from now on

Friends don't let friends do Magic.

I sold my collection 5 years ago to buy a high end PC and you’re absolutely right! Why play this decadent ex game when I can play Street Fighter 6, the Arkham games, Elden Ring, GOW, etc etc…🚬🗿

it gained text ("Owned by Saffron Olive") and MTGO needed a way to display that, so it gave The One Ring a textbox

Thank you for your TED Talk

It would have had the same effect as chalice that turn anyways Lol Seth be goofy sometimes ngl

fr lol

@@lordlazyMTG yoooo broooo

@@ToadboyMTG hi lol

Lol. Him getting salty because his The One Ring was stolen by a coin flip. Then him getting salty that an opponent could use the same sol lands as him to cast a Karn. I get it, though. I get grumbly when my brew of terrible cards barely held together by OP cards is beat by the same OP cards+other good cards.

Yeah, I've played a lot of legacy white stax back in the day... your option is 100% chance of time walk because your opponent only has one land unless they have a force, so always run that out first and make your opponent have it. If they don't, it protects your next spell, too.

Too much setup in the format today. 8 mana ring vs 4 mana ring is too many hoops id wager

He just passed, right? Like he had no reason not to play it?

Honestly that’s why The One Ring needs a ban. It doesn’t enable a specific archetype but instead it’s so good the card can be slotted into any deck. The value that the card generates and the built in protection makes it an include in everything which, in turn, is why it’s so expensive; nearly all the tier one Modern decks run multiple copies.

@@starcrossedother Yeah, that is what I was thinking. My only question was if it was preventing a boogey man archtype from being played. I honestly don't keep up with the meta, so for all I know it could have been preventing something like Mirrodin level affinity from being played. If it is just an auto include, the format does not need it... It also can never be reprinted, as it is a universes beyond card, as I am pretty sure that even if they do a reprint with "counts as the one ring for deck building purposes" they would have to pay *something* for simply using those words again.

I was wondering if this was filmed before the Protour.

@@frizbehobit9919 it was you can see the date when he checks the meta page on goldfish

Nadu is much worse on mtgo because of the clock lol

@@frizbehobit9919Had to be given the statement in game 1 against Storm.

1st game demonstrates how truly obnoxious and poorly designed that card is.

Too be fair every legendary card there is supposed to be only one of ie there’s only one karn or one Ulamog

All the Nadu players are recovering from carpal tunnel syndrome.

This was apparently recorded before PT Nadu, when people were still trying things out

Doing the combo online is brutal

I hope people like you realize eventually that if you restrict it all it will do is make it so only Karn, The Great Creator decks can run it and then you will have real inbalance. Also the point of The One Ring is that it tempts everyone to use it so its already very flavorful.

It's fine if Karn can tutor it, stong build around card are ok. The problem with this card is that you can put it in any deck and make them much better. The scenario you're describing mean it won't be 60% of the meta anymore, now to play the one ring consistantly you'll have to make sacrifice.

@@Dext3rM0rg4n Everyone asking for a ban conveniently forgets about the fact it's colorless and therefore it is natural for it to see more play than any other staple in the format. Also pls don't use tournament data as hard evidence for anything, those events have their own meta or else we should pretend like Yawgmoth and Amulet Titan don't exist anymore even tho they are still amongst the best decks even after mh3.

​@@JulioDRaieasy, just ban karn

@@JulioDRai restricting to 1 copy has nothing to do with making it harder to find, although that is an ancillary benefit. It’s actually about removing the play pattern of easily chaining Rings together to subvert the design of the card (progressive damage). The current play pattern of getting the ring up to like 4 counters, which means you’ve drawn 10 cards from it, then playing another Ring, which you have because you’ve drawn an extra 10 cards, so you don’t lose 5 life is the problem. It’s against the spirit of the card. It’s supposed to be hard to remove (indestructible) and progressively does damage to you (flavor design).

THIS ^ Had to scroll way to far for this comment.

@@notsm Damping sphere says no I'm pretty sure

Right?

The cuuuuurvveee

Not with Damping Sphere

Sneak isn’t legal in modern

@ryanhebertson7457 oh, enchanted tales isn't modern? Didn't know. Ok

​@OdinMagnus all cards printed in enchanted tales are just reprints. All the cards are only legal in formats were they have previously been printed into. So some are legal and others are not.

@ADudeWhoExperiences1393 oh OK. I thought they were like how modern horizons or commander stuff is just for modern or commander. But there are many cards printed that don't make it to arena as well.

Yes, he mentions the "upcoming" protour at ine point

He could not. Opponent had a Damping Sphere on the battlefield.

Funnily enough, if you Ephemerate Ulamog, it will see itself in exile and enter with at least 10 counters

@@ruudvanlaarhoven5776 ???? How so???? It's not in exile when it enters.

Ulamog's effect is dependent on the mana value, not the power/toughness.

Do you have Questing Beast in deck or sideboard?

@@ADudeWhoExperiences1393 no but I'm planning too but not for this deck but for Jund death shadow

One ring granting protection from everything for the turn

Well at the time stamp he can’t because of damping sphere, but I feel like he may have made that mistake other times

Chalice cares about mana value not mana spent to cast. Spending 3 mana to cast a Bolt through a Trinisphere still gets countered by Chalice on 1

@@nickschmucker8836 ah, didn't catch that, I thought Trinisphere changed the actual mana cost/CMC, and would therefore affect Chalice.

Damping Sphere prevents lands from tapping for more then one mana. If you want to call something a punt in that game it would be not putting Emrakul under the land and breaching the Ulamog for the kill instead of breaching the Emrakul for the functional but not quite kill.

@@seangoldman6833 huh. Thank you

You won't get more "much abrewed" than this with the existence of pushed modern horizons cards. You have to compete with them, and to do so you can't go out of the norm too much.

@@posaiduck1131 there are a bunch of people trying new decks and getting results. Aspiringspike for example has played a lot of nonmeta lists and done well

You're thinking of Against the Odds. Much Abrew is focused on playable competitive decks as long as they are interesting and not top tier. Usually they're not even brewed by Seth.

@kelvinliu-huang5955 I am not. This series is about brews, and this deck does count since it was made before we knew the meta, but the problem is that it was posted a lot later than it was filmed.
