I love the flavor of your win condition. Niv gets curious = death. Appropriate magnitude for a dragon of his caliber.

My first ever deck when I started playing Arena used 4 wildcards (All Niv) and then just a bunch of common and uncommon instant and sorcery spells. It was a great deck that was able to compete in Standard while I accumulated wildcards. Pretty hard now to find a decent deck with so few rares or mythics.

Am I the only one who noticed that at 39:30 the Niv mirror sent their commander to the graveyard instead of the command zone?

Gotta love the reason for Lazotep Plating in there. Having seen the game behind the reasoning just keeps me more involved with the deck itself.

I typically play Golgari but I'd like to thank you for all the information you give about all colors and cards. Thanks bud.

Niv Mizzet was the first Arena card that I fell in love with! I always loved Izzet decks, but Niv Mizzet was just on a different level entirely :D

But... but Niv draws cards when you cast spells! Where's the Paradox Engine?

Love the HB content. Singleton formats really challenge deck building skills and learning to play around a wide variety of strategies and cards

Stone-raining fable passage made my day 😄

3 days of historic brawl? i see this as an absolute win.

I've been enjoying the competitive historic brawl a lot. Happy to watch it any day of the week, and I look forward to Fridays. I know showcasing decks is part of your brand, but the first cHB introduction you gave made me think that part of what you might do in the cHB series is stick with a deck and refine it over time. I'll watch whatever you put out, but I enjoy seeing the tuning process, and especially seeing you play decks you *love*, not just new ones. This comment is not related to this Niv-Mizzet video. Thanks for the great content CGB.

Love your historic brawl stuff!

Brawl Fri... wait what ?!?!? Brawl Tuesday lets gooo even better !!!

28:39. Wow. What a gift. That felt good I'm sure!

Hey cgb, I would love to see an updated version of the 5 color saga Deck you once modified for bo1, since the ban will not effect it directly it could maybe work :) Keep up the good work, rly enjoying your daily uploads :)

Niv Mizzet is one of my all time fav cards, love to see this deck played out.

First ever commander deck is Niv, Just got it a couple days ago, curious on how this would fair IRL, Some cards in here are alchemy but thought about just adding some mana rocks in their place.

Lol I turned your video on, and started to be super relax thinking we were friday.

Yeah more Brawl content! Loved that wacky mirror match. Hooray for can't be countered Dragon Wizard.

When he let that through all I could think was "mistake". Free value for what you're already doing is always dangerous and big flyers are a wash with the cards niv draws you

Always happy to get more Historic Brawl games.

Competitive Historic Brawl vids. Smashing like, letting it play til the end and commenting. More like this!!!

I have a paper commander deck with the old Niv mizzet (The fire mind) that’s all about drawing cards. It’s one of my favorite and it’s my first commander deck i ever made, so it has that little bit of nostalgia. Btw the fire mind is a 4/4 with “tap draw a card” and “whenever you draw a card niv mizzet deals one damage to any target” and no I don’t play anything that gives infect or anything like that as I don’t have any nor to I buy singles

Love the HB videos! Keep em coming!

great content as usual, have a great day CGB =)

YESSSS FINALY I HAVE WAITED FOR EONS, LONELY IN THE WAVES OF TIME, WAITING FOR THE HELP OF THE DOJO. BUT AT LAST. MY FRIENDS WILL NOW WHAT IT FEELS TO NOT BE ABLE TO KILL ONE SINGLE CREATURE AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH NICE

CGB - i'm not a fan of brawl but these latest histoic brawl videos have been really enjoyable with fun interactions and combos. Really enjoyed the video. Everytime i played Brawl it just was "who got mana screwed/flooded" and the other person won.

How do you feel about shrine steward as a tutor for curiosity?

My Jacob deck is my fav, didn't know he was in hell queue but that explains alot

I have a niv EDH deck. It's hard wanting to switch it to arena without the other two curiosity type cards

Thank you bro, props.

This was a great watch, trigger war!

So… when you building a Yorion+Conjure deck with Oracle of the Alpha?

Ahhh my fav colour combo, and one of my fav commanders. I personally prefer Firemind, but he ain't on Arena

Any chance we could see an Explorer video during the dead period?

I have played this deck before and had a great time cuz I had smothering tithe on the board and that one card that gives me x 1/1 lifelinkers lol I went down to 3 life and had like 20 treasure and cast it on there end step and slammed out my commander (jetmir) and just won lol

Stayed for the intro and till the end

Ah.. niv, dive down, treasure map. The good old days before things went full stupid.

Yes! It's all about paper divide by zero. So sweeeeet!

On a Tuesday? NICE!

We ALWAYS love historic brawl! Especially when the meta gets stale :)

That spell swindle was CRAZY lolol

CGB? Covert go Brawl!!

Beginner's question - If I was to play this deck and I never played Historic Brawl, am I going to go against "hell queue" decks or vs decks of people with similar experience?

Yes! HB from CGB! Let's go!

Presuming that there really is a 50/50 chance of being on the draw versus on the play, 20 times on the draw in a sample size of 27 is a 0.66% chance. Quite low odds to say the least!

My fav deck is still blue burn build and verto life deck Atm taking a break trying out new game Shiba eternity card game.

just those cosmetics worths my whole collection

sick deck intros

52:52 Go Timmy!

A good presentation of the deck nevertheless, though azorius control will always be dearest to me

More brawl? Must be my birthday 🥳

I have 3 days playing this game and I am tempted to spend so much to play Historic Brawl

The niv mirror revealed that a mirror of the right matchups can be decided by skill/knowledge vs topdecking

I hope we get an updated zur go bur after the meathook goes

Like the historic brawl content!

Thanks CGB

Ah here we are!

Imagine using Tales End on a Tibalt ETB emblem trigger?! Ouch.

Historic Brawl > Standard 😁😁

Based on those stats we can be 99.332 percent confident that the play draw ratio is not truly random. Granted this is 3 games short of a significant sample size, but it's pretty close.

Cool! More Brawl content! WOTC should bane standard cards more often :)

ALWAYS go for the shark typhoon!

Can you do a Chandra 100 card historic deck 😭

9th! Love izzet, keep the good decks rolling!

We really need ranked historic brawl. I have this really interesting 5c Golos storm deck where I just stuffed all the artifact strom cards from various colors into one decks but most decks I play against are like niv or baral. Hopefully If we got ranked historic brawl than we wouldn't get those games and it might actually be fun to get to mythic.

It's fun to watch you smash fools but what is this meta? How can I learn from this?

I love your Videos cgb

I feel like blue gearhulk would be a good include

Niv, Curiosity. Classic

I know this might be a long shot CGB, but can u play Explore, Aka, “Pioneer Lite?”

I wish there was a seperate ranked ladder for Brawl

Why no windfall?

Saving the Niv in the Tasha game would've had lethal next turn

This list is sweet.

Niv Parun was my first Historic Brawl commander and my first EDH commander, so I'm glad to see you building a home for him in Hell Queue!

This guy is like the Joe Bonnamassa of Magic.

Unpopular opinion, I’m so stoked meathook is gone. I love brewing tokens/creature decks and meathook was rough.

My dream come true.

Must be our birtday

i love my toilet niv CGB he is my favorite commander! and treasure are really good whit niv!

Man I love niv, but with 90% of games being decided by mana screw/flood I just can't be confident running it.

Haha... We know why CGB put Lazotep Plating in the deck.

So, who exactly do you see in "Hell-Queue?" I have no idea; all I know is Golos 😅

I play golos and I see the mirror, esika, kinnan, baral. Honestly, the s-tier commanders are golos and kinnan.

I’m a simple man - I see niv mizzet content, I click.

Tier 1 pro secret for new CGB viewers. Watch his new content, craft a deck that beats it and then in a week when people have moved on play the deck that is really good that no one is playing anymore. Easy ladder wins.

Why not some explorer?

“I don’t need to deal with Shark Typhoon, Niv can just shoot down the sharks” *Niv proceeds to not shoot down 49/49 worth of sharks*

I'm happy dead standard gave me more HB content

more chb!

me: oh cool an s tier izet deck. me: aww not those cringe izet jokes (ps I love them) me: darn he has already won

I wish they would make historic and historic brawl formats without trash alchemy/re-balanced cards.

1 AM CGB BABY

No torboran?

Playing Curiosity but not Combat Research??? Why would you not want +1/+1 and Ward 1 on your Niv for exactly the same cost?

If NewCGBVideo enters the battlefield, put a +1/+1 counter on it.
