tommy editing should be a mainstay in all paper play its such a nice quality of life update for viewers XD

The head of Liliana sticking out in the hand overview in the first sideboard game took me out 🤣😂

tommy is seriously one of the best editors out of all the magic channels on youtube!

That’s great to read!!!

I'm a simple man: I see Splinter Twin paper gameplay video, I click video

I genuinely miss this era of Modern gameplay, all of the midrange and control decks had tons of fair interaction, nothing seemed too busted, skill expression was really high, every good deck was $1000 but once you had 4 of each fetch and shock, and some fastlands every deck was reasonably priced, plus jund was the "fancy pants rich mcgee" deck and its fine to have one of those in the meta, if its not T0. Huge throwback to this meta(even though I was 15 and playing off my dad's cards at the time), it was so much fun

Just that Bob flip at the intro was worth the like

Love this Chanel, the enthusiasm from mengu is un matched anywhere else on KZread. Never stop mengu we love u!!

I couldn’t afford to play during this format; I was a poor college student at the time. It’s nice to see these cards in action during their prime. Thank you for sharing.

This makes me wish for an old school modern format ending at Journey into Nyx.

i think there are enough privately cultivated formats that you find one by now that ends at _any_ format. 'everything new is terrible' isn't a rare idea, you'll just end up playing with the same three people that also think magic 'died' at the point that you do. And while all 'old' magic players claim it got worse in the last ten years, even older players claim it died with mirrodin. And people before that said it was onslaught. I would almost consider it's not the actual game quality that is really at fault here...

@Izelor

@@SeleenShadowpaw Mirrodin will always be the most broken block due to how powerful affinity was at the time. I don't think there has ever been a Standard deck after the dreaded Memory Jar that has been so game breaking. In addition, Mirrodin was the first block where the story left Dominaria and we started visiting planes that were not really connected to the story, not to mention that it was the starting point of the Modern format that a lot of people hate. What you can't deny is that WotC back in the day took way more creative approaches in every block in comparison to today where their usual approach is "create tokens, draw a card, double an effect, place a counter".

Tommy’s editing and the interactions between you two is why I love watching this channel over and over again

I really love these modern "time capsule" videos! More please! Also, a thought I had for a video idea: "What if it were unbanned". Each player gets to use one card from the list of banned modern cards and either slot it into an existing deck or build a new one around it. I think it might be a fun unhinged series in the "workshop" style. Keep the great content coming!

The card holder look to show the card being played is awesome!

I got into modern way to late in life but the white jund looks so much fun to play

Mengu tapping lands to the right and creatures to the left is why I have trust issues

2014, from the banning of Deathrite Shaman and unbanning of Bitterblossom and Wild Nacatl to just before the Khans Block 2014 was the best modern format in my opinion. You could play so much fun decks and cards: Affinity, Faeries, BirthingPod Combo, Tron, Burn / Zoo, Splintertwin, Living End, Infect, Dath & Taxes and more. I wish this was an alternate format many pople played, just like "Edison" format in YuGiOh. It is also easy to distinguish, because in Khans Block, the card boarder changed again.

Token contest definitely is won by Mengu this time! 😂 So much fun!

You mentioned your bulk collection, and I was curious, how many copies of any given card do you keep before you say “that’s too many”?

Wonder were the blood moon on Tommy’s side board is . Used to be twins best answer against tron an twin and other decks with crazy mana bases

Hey mengu, you shoulld do jake vs calc finals of pro tour lord of the rings. Woulld love to see you pilot youre friends deck!

Hello Mengu, great video as always, i'd like to ask if it is in the channel's plans to make a discord/community? i feel that most viewers here are more interested in the 60-card side of Magic and (based on my personal experience) trying to jam some games through discord/spelltable can be hard

Now that I think of it, it probably wouldn't be too hard to create a program that you input the cards you want and it outputs an image like the one Tommy manually edits in. Then he could just screenshot that and add it to the editing software. Would you like me to create something like that for you and CardMarket?

You’ve heard of modern. You’ve heard of premodern, now introducing, pre-modern modern 🔥

Why is it still banned along with many other cards that shouldn't be? Because the people who make those decisions are overly cautious morons. And I quit because of them, because I can't keep being disappointed when a ban ruins a deck I've heavily invested in and enjoy.

An excellent display of how boomer jund grinds out opponents by just not having many dead draws.

Twin still banned, Jund out of style (if not from mind)for a long time...
