Working on more brawl - CKC members only stream - kzread.infop4rkPUlh3U4?feature=share

.. What's your win condition? - Eventually my opponent gets mad and flips a table.

The real Brawl content was the Cascade salt we mined along the way

At 16:15 there was an evil/greedy line: Let edgar resolve, take 5, deluge. Next turn cast mastery, and hope the opponent leaves edgar in the graveyard so that he will return as a coffin. Then tale's end the return trigger, stranding edgar in the graveyard. If they realize what you are planning, they can return edgar to hand, but now you still have tale's end. This also relies on them not finding reanimation like nullpriest too soon.

What a great play that would have been. I hope I never meet you in brawl. 😂

hey I just wanna say, the game audio is WAY louder than your voice, it's hard to hear you talking when stuff is happening in the game

Thanks for mentioning this. Outro music is also too loud compared to CGBs voice.

Yes! The cgb brawl era is starting again

Sliver salt brings me all of the joy in the world

"I'm a horrible person and I love it" :D And we love it too :P

I must say, one of the most satisfying things I've ever done is Narset's Reversal a Thought Distortion. My opponent quit immediately, but it was hilarious. Since that day, I use it in all my Brawl decks that use blue.

Ah, yes. Magic's Uno Reverse card.

0:45 Brushwagg is the biggest flex to name with Cavern of Souls.

I had a couple of games where I thought my opponent left, but I talked to him later in Discord and found out he was playing on his phone and his office called 🙂 He was trying to play and talk at the same -- major fail

Most of my work is just waiting around for something to happen, but every now and then when I'm gaming something does happen and we have to bail on the game. :(

BRO I was cackling when Imoti got countered 🤣 NOT THE HALFLING TOO XD

I love brawl :) it’s a nice change up. Also great ideas for commander

Love the brawl content. Kept most of the decks from last year's brawl-January.

I don’t normally like brawl, but I stayed to the end because I know it’s what you prefer to play, and honestly it was pretty good. I’ll just keep showing up, thanks for posting.

Random question, but being a newer player on arena, what’s the best way to build an arena library? Using gems to buy packs of the current set to stock wildcards for other decks i want? Wish if you bought the paper version of a card you could get a digital copy :)

That first imoti game was beautiful, perfection. Control mages, hell yeah. 😈😈

I love when you and Rarran evaluate cards, so much fun! I hope to see more of that 😊

Oh the Brawl feels so refreshing. I missed it.

Nice PJ reference at the end. Ten was the first CD album I purchased.

This deck should be called: "Alquist PROFIT"

Yes! ever since the recording session ( exclusive for Cool Kids club members here on youtube/ not sponsored ) i was waiting for this video, the salt and softness is off the charts, amazing video CGB

Regarding the behavior of that last opponent, to be honest the MTGA client is so unstable and so sensitive to the most occasional and minimal packet loss, that I no longer assume oppo is salty or anything. It's most likely that they are experiencing some weird bug and don't know how to deal with it xD The number of games I lost just because I couldn't play for a crash or another... The fast ALT-F4 technique and rejoin as soon as you see something odd has been invaluable though.

"I'm a monster and I love it!" Well, at least you know...

Great video! Very satisfying wins, apart from the last salty one.

the most annoying commanders getting blasted is just precious

Well... I also have to withstand everytime the urge to immediatly scoop when I see that Teferi hit the opps board. It is really hard to play against a good blue/white control player when you have a deck consisting out of creatures and the like. I mostly play my "nine lives/solemnity" combo deck and THAT deck is just terrible against blue/white control (in fact ANY blue control deck). I lose with that deck against blue/white control almost every time.

Historic Brawl!!!!

Brawl content is what I live for. It's definitely my favorite MTG game mode. Eventually I'll ascend to playing Commander IRL, but until such a time comes, Brawl is where I shall be.

i use this same idea of a "teferi " deck with faramir prince of ithilien as the commander and it works great

Good game, I was the Sméagol player. I was in a flu-filled haze and I didn't even realize I was playing the sensei himself

is it just me or should he resolve the cascade then exile all spells?

Great Brawl Video!

Just realized Johnny Harris had a featured card art ...lol

@covertgoblue sad the Shanna game was cut becausr of the timing from the stream

I applaud that last opponent for leaving after seeing that hand of bullshit lmao. Playing against azorious control just isn't worth it

Finally! I was collecting control just for the sake of this commander, whom no one has played since the beginning of the set. It's good that there's a video on it now.

On paper I prefer the new Lavinia, she is from the Clue "set" so unfortunately not on Arena, but the ramp it provides, incentivising instant answer and investigating more times than alquist, so providing more draw consistently to me selled better to me

Arguably the most important thing to do when building a deck is to modify it to beat the algorithm.

Bolt the bird vs plow the goose

Why CGB no version of Slime against humanity in standard? That is what I have been waiting for

great video thanks for sharing :)

34:21 I understand why he conceded pretty hopeless situation at that point against UW control. Don't waste time and on to the next

But CGB, why not play detectives tribal? 🧐

Make em scoop!

that was a sick intro

Oh yes brawl let's go!!!

I missed you brawl content on arena!

Isn't Alquist the name of the primary character in the book/movie "Girl with the Dragon Tatoo"?

Your theory on the first sliver player needs to be true.

Can we get pride of hull clade?

No questions

nice FOB reference

It's funny how many people scoop to frustration. I can't imagine scooping at full health with your opponent at 6. You could easily still win. It's not over til it's over.

Been missing the brawl content.

Miss the intros - get ready for combos "what's happening" 😮😮😮😮

Mythweaver poq still tormenting open queue instead of being pushed to hell queue :/ hope wizards change it, any deck that's not blue can't keep up

I think the Brawl queue is stupid - it should be completely random. Hate not being able to play some fun decks because the Commander will get me put in hell queue

Ah, jeez buddy, lol

Errery roakan ath t'durr!

Immoral? Come on now, this is Brawl we're talking about. We all have at least one deck that is a netdecked tier 1 list that runs a less than optimal Commander solely because we know we can get away with it.

yay! brawl content!

Fun police

Brawl content is back!!

New Deck (5) 😂 When you just don't care about propper names anymore...

Music kinda...really loud in this one.

i would more black brawl!

Probably just salty watching you fill your hand a second after they made you remove 4 cards

every blue white deck ist the same doesnt matter whos at the helm, its counterspells, board wipes and extra turn spells

This one is different because he switched a meta control commander so the algorithm would place him the lower categories of meta and he could torture them.

Me neither Alquist me neither 🙃

The algorithm is so stupid. Deck strength is way more important than the commander. There really shouldn’t be a matchmaking algorithm at all

love alquist

!

I’m retiring from KZread

i love the brawl content but the background music in this vid was so high! It was hard to pay attention to your sultry voice

Pub stomping is only amoral when it’s actually 4 player commander. Brawl is the Wild West. You can concede at any point

Ban u/w, all cards in those colors.

Day 47 of asking for Covert Go Beard

I would so buy cascade dishwasher detergent with a picture of the first sliver on it!

Game value too high
