Indeed, from wiki : "Super haste allows a creature to "attack the turn before you play it", that is, put it onto the battlefield tapped and attacking during the player's declare attackers step. Then, during that player's next turn, they must pay that creature's mana cost or lose the game at the end of the turn."

What a game ending enchantment. Nice little rally in the second game, but we all knew the outcome. Great content as always.

I simply wanted to thank you for the awesome amount of advice and insight you provide in your videos. I have had 6 wins in Ranked Draft today, notwithstanding a bad start with 2 defeats. I owe you a fair deal for the building part especially! Thanks :^)

I've been waiting for this ;) love your videos man, especially draft, really inspiring!

I really like the animation thingy you did at the end with the mvp card.

Always looking forward to your videos!

Great content. Enjoy the analysis.

I waited so desperately for this

Loved seeing you rare draft lol. That is what makes drafting difficult for me. It is hard not to draft that off color mythic/rare when I dont have it.

Just worked a fourteen hour shift. May as well watch a two hour long draft by LVD before I fall asleep, lol.

I waited for this video my whole life

Excellent!

Great video, really enjoyed it. Took me 2 days to finish, but in the end I still got there. I loved the game where you said, well, got our win condition (Pegasus), got them on a 7 turn clock! Also, feels bad when you almost lose to the timer. Frustrating to see that happen when the game is progressing, and yet, people actually abuse the timer and get away with it.

@LegenVD

5 жыл бұрын

I only ever have issues with the timer in limited, as there's usually more cards to consider.

That first pack! Wish I picked that up on pre release day. 🤣

I feel like High Alert is slept on as well. Taking it pack 1 pick 1 and then building around it gives you a pretty powerful deck, especially since Azorious has enough card draw to get it consistently enough, and playing the defensive is pretty easy when your build-around is high toughness.

The problem with High-Alert decks is that they're pretty mediocre if you build around it too much and then don't draw it. Pegasus and Knight-Arbiter are the types of cards I would want to combine with it, since they're still great by themselves.

@StRanGerManY

@@LegenVD I have lost many games to inheritance alone. Once I got two inheritances played against me: there was not a chance to comeback after that. In drafts, boards are very often stalled when either side attacking will loose more then the defender. And this enchantment puts the opponent on the clock. You arent the only one who is undervalueing this cards: most card ratings and "early pick rankings" give it a very low score for some reason. Obviously, the best fit of this enchantment is in a rakdos deck - repelnishing your low health and activating spectacle at the same time every turn is awesome. Another thing is that this card is being valued low by the AI as well, so you get two or even more (altough that might be overkill) of inheritances in the late picks

Nice to see the Hugh Mongous hexproof 2/5 blue creature

What do you think about the Rakdos deck? I like the designs and what the cards do, but I think that cost 1 only goblins income, at least in ARENA

OH SHIT, its out!!! NICE this is my first time seeing this set, but I think youre undervaluing that faerie duelist massively, seems like a decent flyer and a conditional removal spell all at the same time for 2 mana, unless I read the card wrong. Also, I thought high alert looked busted if you wound up with 2. The 2/5 hexproofs, the 1/4 flying owls, the 1/3 flyers, the 1/2 faerie duelists (which basically makes them a skynight legionare PLUS removal for 2 mana....) and the 0/6 walls. High alert basically makes those cards extremely busted for just 3 mana, seems legit. It would have made almost every one of your cards better.

I don't get it why you don't like thought collapse. I believe it is a very good choice especially in limited with smaller decks and all, being a counter and a mill mechanism

I've been waiting to see you draft. How highly do you rate theater of horrors? Also how highly do you rate I'll gotten inheritance?

@LegenVD

Theater is great, Inheritance is very good too but better in a more aggressive deck.

I definitely undervalued it in this draft, great in aggro decks.

Not sure I agree with taking thought collapse over high alert but good deck overall.

When you so late you start running inside the tube: "I don't recommend haste twice"

Why are you taking Azorious Guildgate instead of Azorious Locket? I thought ramp and later card advantage is good in draft, which tends to be slow.

Ethereal absolution is indeed super strong, especially in sealed/draft. I did lose to it a few times, but I also won games by stealing it with eyes everywhere for a winning blow.
