That last opponent was a real sport for sitting through all that nonsense without scooping

One of the few ways to beat Narset from that position I think was to leave snare into the graveyard and tutor midnight clock, cash it in to shuffle the snare back into the deck and tutor it with key

Woah The serpent dying was weird. I don’t know why it was ordered that way but I’ve never seen that. I thought he was alive and well until that happened

There were 2 stacked serpents but only one of them had an arrow for assigned damage, visually deceptive but clear enough if you go back and parse the client UI. I would have gotten it wrong in the moment too, no slight at all on CGB here.

CGB , the first video I saw of you was around 2 years ago. It was an Emry video! This video touched a lot of feels for me. Keep delivering amazing content for us. We love you!

Can’t wait to see an Emry deck when Brother’s War comes out. Artifacts will be wild.

You can't expect to wield supreme executive power because some watery tart threw a sword at you.

I played Emri and Paradox Engine before it was cool - in time-limited HB events. Loved the deck for the flavor first (although it turning out to be really strong helped keep that love alive, for sure)

You're right about the combat order thing. I didn't think Koma would die either

Really loving the historic brawl videos

Against the Teferi deck, your win their was just make infinite mana and make a huge hangerback walker. They probably can't beat that, and that's why they scooped.

Teferi could beat a huge hangerback walker pretty easily, but at the same time he'd be so far ahead on mana that it could be pretty tough to come back from.

At 31:30 ive had that same thing happen to me at least 5 times this past week playing. Lots of other weird things as well, where once someone destroyed my brokers ascendancy and it somehow destroyed my whole board of 5 at the same time. Shenanigans like crazy in MTGA as of late...

What happened there was that Ghalta had to assign 12 damage as it's a 12/12. It assigned 3 to a Serpent, 3 to another Serpent, and 6 to Koma, and nothing to the remaining Serpent, as there was no more damage left to be dealt. You can see it clearly by where the arrows are pointing from Ghalta. The one remaining Serpent that wasn't assigned damage wasn't pointed to, but for some reason it stuck to another of its brethren. The question is only why Arena sticks those Serpents together, but I already learned to look at the arrows + order rather than just at the order alone.

New to historic brawl, and got to say it's been a treat. I love the total jank/broken combos along with how fresh the draws are being a singleton format. Standard can feel a bit grindy/repetitive in contrast. Especially, with the standard meta being limited to 2 or 3 competative decks. ..Also, lets face it, more cards mean more of that tasty artwork mtg brings to the table.

Never was a big combo guy, but I just lovely Emry and the value she provides. Thanks CGB!

Humbling and inspiring move by those cHB players to let you play everything out and actually have some nice clean solitaire combo fun. Wholesome video CGB!

I've never minded paradox engine in historic brawl. But alchemy cards literally break the format. Because alchemy can add cards to the deck, which ruins the 100 card total. It can also conjure duplicates, which ruins the no duplicate rule of historic brawl. And it can add perpetual effects to a commander which is broken regardless of the which player gets the effects. They just need to take alchemy cards out of historic brawl, let alchemy be its own format.

Entertaining as always. I remember playing Upheaval in my Artifact Ramp Highlander decks back in the day. I would have killed for a card like River's Rebuke.

I love all of your brawl videos keep them coming!

I love the moments when you try something in the name of science Sometimes I'm playing commander with friends and we have these questions, no one is a judge and google can't always answer the questions Here we have entertainment AND quality information

Something like two month ago, I faced a CGwannaB while playing HistoBrawl on Europe servers, his name was CovertGoBlue, Wanderer avatar, Solring pet and Emry as commander. It was a fierce battle, and one of my most memorable win

42:02 I always read it as Mystic Sub-duel too Except I'm thinking of Shahrazad

Great video!!! Loved it

That moment koma died, everyone was just "wait what?!" so fustrating x)

That Ghalta block looks like an MTG Arena bug. It definitely implied that your Koma was the last to be assigned damage. That was not fair!

with those deck you really have to know what you need to look for to win and then its fast execution

Man watching those turns hurt my brain 🤣

The Teferi match shows why it's probably a good idea to run Meteorite with the Moonsliver Key. It would have dealt with Narset rather easily from that position.

The way arena msiguided how the blockers were ordered was absolute bullshit, cgb could totally saved his koma and would have an amazing board presence. They really need to update the indicators about blockers.

At 31:00 The koma died because the opponent assigned dmg that way, theres a option on settings that lets you assign dmg manually and it also comes in handy when dealing with things like devil tokens and the such (where you can avoid killing them)

You're mistaken. When blockers are declared, the attacking player has to declare a blocking order for all blocking creatures that are gang-blocking an attacking creature. During the next step, the player assigns damage to the creatures - but they have to assign at least lethal damage to a creature before they can assign any damage to any that come later in blocking order. There is no option in Arena settings to allow you to ignore blocking order. You are confusing what happened here with something else (assigning greater than lethal damage). The problem is that Arena is supposed to display blocking order left to right. The order shown here was three tokens and then Koma. This should mean that attacker has to assign at least 3 damage to the first token before assigning any to the second, then at least 3 damage to the second token before assigning any to the third, then at least 3 damage to the third before assigning any to Koma. Since Ghalta only has 12 damage, that only leaves 3 damage to Koma. This is how the rules operate. To repeat, there is no game setting that allows you to change this. It looks like what happened was blockers were displayed in the wrong order, which is a bug. (Unless there was a damage multiplier somewhere on board that got missed?)

@Patronux

@@Patronux No, they were talking about the ability to assign more than lethal damage to a blocker. That *is* an option in Arena settings. Like they said, you can use it if, for example, an opponent blocks a 4/4 with two devil tokens in order to kill your creature with ping damage. You can choose to assign all 4 damage to one of the tokens, which means there's only one point of ping damage and the 4/4 survives. They were talking about a real thing that is different from and unrelated to what happened in this video.

But the order shown (left to right) is supposed to be what the opponent is assigning the damage to. It showed the 3 serpent tokens first and then Coma, who then was shown to be only taking 3 damage. Instead it assigned damage in an order not displayed on screen. I don't see how it could be anything but an Arena bug.

Just a heads up, Teferi Time Raveler (the rebalanced 4 mana version) isn't a hell queue commander. It gets paired up against other high-casual queues commanders but almost never against the proper hell queue ones unless there's not enough people in the queue. I would even argue it's one of the worse UW Teferi as a commander (compared to Teferi Hero and Who Slows the sunset)
