Seeing Thoralf sit so much closer to the camera than Jamin is always pretty funny. I actually had the pleasure of meeting Thoralf Severin a couple weeks ago at YCS Dortmund. One thing that fans of the channel may not realize is that he’s 179 cm (5’ 10”) tall. It’s just that everyone else in the office is quite unreasonably large.

It's honestly insulting that the izzet phoenix deck doesn't have 4 phoenixes in it. Come on WOTC I shouldn't have to buy two precons just to have a playset of the namesake card. Stop acting like your arbitrarily rare cardboard is expensive for you to print.

The two phoenixes was the same for the original standard precon, so at least it’s nothing new.

Unsure when this was recorded, but the Gruul Stompy list does have a lot of the core cards that make up the Gruul Vehicles deck that has been putting up decent results since Regional Championship weekend. Skysovereign, Esika's Chariot, Stormseeker, and Akroan War alongside Embercleave and some creature lands like you mentioned are most of what you need to round out the deck.
@Griever49 Жыл бұрын
yeah, most of the base of the deck is there, pretty much you just have to change the big threats for others, I would personally keep the couple questing beasts tho, those are always good

My thoughts on upgrading the Dimir Control: When I saw the decklist I had a different direction I was thinking of taking the deck. Play off of the Shark Typhoon (and pick up another copy or two) as the possible wincon and toss in cards that can synergize with the graveyard aspect of the deck like Tolarian Terror (which can work well with Typhoon as well). This change may go in a more midrange direction but doesn't clash with the suggestions here. The only question is what to cut.

@talamran7499 Жыл бұрын
gruul mid/vehicles is actually a real (tier 2) deck so a playset of skysovereign and chariots could the way to upgrade. also I don't what about you but a full playset of a big delve spell might be too much for a deck that doesn't actively fill the graveyard and especially when memory deluge nets more card while also digging deeper, control doesn't need the fast 2-mana effective draw spell because they have the time to spend like you said so a bigger draw spell that is more mana hungry should be better.
