Yeah, sometimes when I'm n bad mood I play monogreen stompy in historic. So much people concede to big hexproof creatures, and there is special place for 5/4 one with "can't be countered, protection from blue". Gaiya blessing to ruin mill players day is like a cherry on top and I'm feeling much better :D

It's not every day that you see a monblue deck concede with two Haughty Djinns on the board.

That 1,2,3,4 curve during match 3 was beautiful.

Brings me back to the Ixalan days when blue players would auto scoop to a Carnage Tyrant. Glad to see we've come full circle+

Hey LVD! Loving the Rex representation. I've made some glorious jank in explorer with it with Mystic Reflection and White Sun's Twilight, all you need are two additional copies and it's basically gg. Figured I'd point out this jank incase you wanna make some more explorer content soon!

Big green deck is really fun. Thank you for showing your build on MTGA

Whenever I am catching up on your videos and I finish one: “onto the next one”

I've spent the past couple days trying to cheat Rex and mono green green suns actually has worked really well

I made a jund anti blue deck for historic just to get paired up again mono blue control players. Feels pretty damn good. I wish boil was available.

I just imagine primal SpongeBob every time Luca makes a Gruul deck. No thoughts, just turn sideways. Awesome deck Luca! Keep up the awesome work man!!

Doesn't matter what set comes out next this man is a genius with combos and fun strategies

The best part of the video by far is at 13:20

My Gruul heart is happy with this deck. Do you think we could go even greedier with some copies of Arlinn, the Pack's Hope to ramp some more? Occassionally having a 5/5 trampling and indestructible wolf could work with Lukka's -4

@LegenVD

I don’t really see Arlinn as a ramp card. It can be good in control matchups although the current build has a lot of 4-drops already.

woo, fresh upload time is best time of day!

Very interesting to see the same 1234 curve against three different opponents in games 3-5

4/4s gave been the ultimate brick wall against mono red of late. Gruul is the best at getting one out on turn 3, so there's that :)

Nasty Planeswalker.

Hahaha love to see mono U suffer 😂 thank You Luca!

man thanx for the idea i´m alredy constructed a deck like this but in jund but maybe i can give a better chance to gruul

Happy Gruul noises!

I have a cheaper version of this red/green counters deck that utilizes Invigorating Hot Spring, Kodama of the West Tree, and Thundering Raiju; but it still has Contaminator, Adaptive, and Rex.

Weird, whenever i try walking my big green monsters everyone and their mothers in the standard queue decides to play mono removal or is the usual "perfect curve mono red" that has me killed at turn.

The lower curve approach is definitely more competitive.

The concept of ward is great when you have to pay 1 or 2 mana, or another cost, but these ward 3+ might as well be hexproof.

I mean a ward 4 just means a black deck has to pay 6 mana to go for the throat - it takes up a turn but is far from impossible

This one is really fun! Just went 9-2 with it, and got pure bliss out of T-Rex'ing people to death 3x Off topic question also LVD. With the new set out today, I assume you may revise your brawl/historic stuff and cut 1-2 cards and add some of the new stuff if theres insane cards that just fit better. If so, I'm guessing the decklists on Aetherhub will be updated? (kinda like you did with Shadowspear for the rat deck) So always just check Aetherhub I'm guessing right? Thanks!

@LegenVD

I rarely go back to update old decklists unless I make an adjustment based on initial comments. Would be a full-time job to keep hundreds of decks up-to-date so don’t really have the time for it. If people ask for suggestions on specific decks in the comments I might reply, but you can usually follow the thought process from the deck tech to decide which cards make sense to add.

@Trix_Rabbit

Жыл бұрын

@@LegenVD Yeah thats very logical and makes sense. With that many decks, if you weren't actively playing a few and had to go back and re-edit hundreds of decks with each new expansion, that would be a ton of extra work for no real purpose. When new stuff does comes out, and it seems like its in all your decks going forward, its probably worth adding to my old stuff if I'm still playing it. Thanks for the reply and explanation. MTG is very overwhelming, especially the older historic stuff, so I'm glad I found your channel and you explain your process of why you choose the stuff you're running, as well as playing the games out showing how it works together.

Haha the scrapgorger wars is the delight I never knew I needed to see 😄

Can someone explain why people keep killing Adaptive over Beastcaller? Adaptive only naturally grows when a stronger creature is played but Caller grows whenever anything is played and getting it out early means less counters distributed later when it is dealt with. Or am I missing something

I can't wait to see LVD's April Fools video

Blue player; “I can’t counter it so I’m gonna go home”

Love the video in honour of Lukka finally fucking dying

14:53 I mean, that dude wasn’t even really playing magic. He didn’t do anything until 3 turns in, I don’t know what he was expecting would happen. A wise man once said, “interaction wins games.” If you know you’re a slow deck, you need interaction in your starting hand.

The deck looks like a lot of fun, but when you play the games in unranked ladder, is that a clear sign the deck isn't competitive enough to compete on the ladder?

I always recommend to people that are tight on wildcards to wait a week or so after a video is posted so Untapped has time to gather more data on the deck. That way you’ll get a much bigger sample size and a more honest representation of a deck. Whatever data I gather is going to pale in comparison and will be skewed by lots of factors such as play/draw and the surprise factor of an unknown deck which wears off after a few days. That’s why you won’t see me claim any outlandish win rates in my video titles, an individual will rarely play enough games for those numbers to be statistically accurate. But I’m always happy to give my opinion on a deck at the end of each video.

13:27 dude literally plays the game just to stop others from playing the game then scoops the second he goes against something he can’t counter. Ok dude. I’m sure you’re fun to play against at your local store and you have all kinds of friends.

Things like this are why I really hate magic now..... the game is entirely decided by turn 4. Whoever has their opening hand and hits 4 mana first wins 95 percent of the time. Turn 3 Luuka turn 4 toxic game ender. What a terrible game. Nothing like everyone playing the game to make sure no game lasts longer then 5 minutes max

That monoblack player was insufferable. Dude just plays a single OP card and sits there doing nothing till he wins, constantly saying “nice” every time you do something. Remove sheoldred from the format and the deck is useless. Braindead deck for a braindead player.

not mythic ??? no thank you.
