Calculated with Hypergeometric Distribution, the chance that you find no more than two Fireblasts in 57 cards is 0.994%; so about a 1/100 chance that two of them are in the bottom 3.

truly incredible match against ANT. thanks for showing just how complex playing burn can get!

In the storm game, with tendrils on the stack, you could've fire lasted both of your own eidolons and then sent 4 lightning bolts up stairs. At least for an attempt at winning.

There is no reason for them not to choose 0 though.

That was the weirdest burn match I think I've ever seen.

In the stall. If you went to 7 burn spells in hand. Once you drew second fireblast you had lethal or an 8th burn spell. Fireblast eidolon. Bolt eidolon go to 3. 4 3 damage spells plus fireblast for 16 or 6 3 damage spells for 18.

People are talking about shooting your own eidolons in response to the tendrils, but that doesn't play around force (I'm not sure if there were 4 in the graveyard at that point). In my opinion, the better play was (since you had so much mana), do that play on your own turn once you had the burn for it. That way you can cast the sorcery burn spells as well, like spike. Obviously that means keeping those cards in hand rather than the pyros, but I think its the better line. There is almost zero threat of getting stormed out on your own turn, and if you have the kill through a force, its probably time to go for it.

I was thinking the same thing, but I went and checked a couple TES decklists and didn't see any copies in the first few lists that I pulled. I don't think they usually run it.

23:37 I'm pretty sure you're a near-lock to win if you eidolon and then go face (only losing to shadowspear in hand, and even then they'd need either another mox opal or sigarda's aid to make the mana work). Your turn 2: Attack with GG, play eidolon, pass (lifetotals 16 / 20) Their best turn 2 that doesn't have shadowspear: sigarda's aid, hammer, attack you with a 12/12 (lifetotals 12 / 9) Your turn 3: Attack with GG & eidolon, point 9 points of burn at your face (life totals: -1 / 3) Okay, let's say they don't attack on turn 2 and put themselves to dead. What can they do? You burn them to 3, putting yourself to 14, and their only way out is a shadowspear (steelshaper's into shadowspear doesn't do it since it's two small spells). They have no removal, so they can't get out from under the eidolon. They're locked. On the following turn, you point another burn spell at their face and win the game.

XD when half of the deck tech segment is explaining one card

I'm sure it's there somewhere on twitter or something (which instantly showed up on the vid after I posted), but in that absurd game, you (probably) win with Tendrils on the stack...by Fireblasting both of you eidolons first, then Quad Laser lightning bolts them to death. Which would have been the most awesome way for the game to end. There are realistically other ways to skin the cat once we have all 4 bolts, though. We can send the squad once we draw the 2nd Fireblast, because we have the line of "remove our own eidolons, you are dead". If they block, the race becomes a loss for them, but if they don't, they lose to us blasting our own eidolons and killing them.

Yeah this is a line. I’m surprised he never attacked with swiftspear when it was 5 goblins vs 2 eidolons + 1 swift spear. We can assume any removal on swift spear is a win for opp (since he sends 5 tokens in, Bosh blocks 2, goes to 2 and is locked behind eidolon and loses to any tendrils/warren/removal), and any storm count 2 tendrils is a win. Once we have a fireblast in hand, swift spear has good attacks. Attack in, if 2 blocks we fireblast a goblin that’s not blocking, if 3 blocks we hit a blocker, if 4 blocks we bolt one blocker and blast the other. If no blocks we take the free point of damage. Opp has bad attacks, best he can do is put us to 2 (we are losing to tendrils + 1 card anyways if we stay locked up, so losing to tendrils anyways seems fine). Swiftspear damage breaks parity much before the final few cards in the deck.

Multiple Eidolons games are the best Magic. Got a game vs my son in a mono-red mirror where we had 2 each.

Interesting Monored Standstill game.

Burn was my first Legacy deck after I got back into Magic in 2012. I agree with trimming one Fireblast at 23:05.

Eidolons of the Great Stasis

Happy to see this. I just learned this card was seeing play the other day.

I think that Storm match game 2 was the most absurd game of Magic I've ever seen.

I love this idea. I recently took out a burn list just like this only instead of wheel I added Laelia, the Blade Reforged.

@__turbobrew__1979

2 жыл бұрын

That would be an interesting build. Laelia gives you incremental damage and card advantage over time, but if the opponent has removal or can block you loose out on the advantage. I feel like light up the stage is going to be better than wheel for the same job. Stage gives you two cards for one mana vs wheel gives you 7 cards for 3 mana. Stage is only slightly less mana efficient, but it is much easier to cast and you get more swiftspear prowess triggers. In any case I think that laelia, stage, and wheel are playing on the wrong axis for burn.

One of those games was one of the best games I've ever seen. You can guess which one

That Storm game 💕💕🤣🤣

i waited like 15 minutes for 2 fireblasts on your own eidolons and then just bolt them to death, and you even had it but then didnt do it - NYOOOOO

That match against storm was silly.

43:11 Fireblast both your Eidolons and bolt them 4 times.

Comment of the day! Bosh and burn! I could feel the friction and tension all the way over here. 🤣

33:39 when it's taking long there is the option of playing your 4th creature and then blast if they try to attack with the 5 goblins, block and kill all of them (unless they FoW the blast in which case you lose)

36:08 Couldn't you chain lightning one of your Eidolons, then copied it twice, killed the other eidolon with one copy, then gone face with the other 5 mana: 3 damage to face Three lightning bolts: 9 more damage to face (total of 12) Fireblast for lethal (12+4 = 16)

I'm not a burn expert but I consider myself a burn aficionado. The fetch vs straight basics decision boils down to if you want to support Grim Lavamancer and/or Searing Blaze. If you don't want those cards the miniscule deck thinning isn't worth minor life loss. Lavamancer isn't too hot right now but maybe Dragon's Rage Channeler is prevalent enough to justify searing blaze.

at 43:00 you can just start blastin your eidos to quad bolt either your opponent or yourself

that storm match was amazing

Back at 7 mana/T19 or around three on the mill game, I think chain copy chain kill both eidolons for 3 mana, into chain them + triple bolt + fireblast is the earliest kill?

Hm, i'm interested in how WoM compares to Browbeat. Most likely better, yeah. It's an interesting tech, it's sad that it didn't come out.

Your Leylines aren't just for Dredge or Reanimator. Leyline will kneecap the SHIT out of Delver. You have Bridge, yes, but stripping their graveyard means they will NEVER get to play a Murktide. The deck has 9 mana lands, and crippling the reduction hits hard. REB is also for Delver, yes. Especially since you can't handle Murktide otherwise.

​@@DappenAvellon Fireblast was a 4 off, and yes, hitting 2 out of 4 in the top 3 is the same as hiding 2 at the bottom 3. But even if you do the reverse and calculate the chance to hit 2 out of 4 Fireblast in the top 3 out of a sample size of 60, it is still 0.98 %. I think the problem is that you used a binomial. Binomials are usually used for a process where you replace the sample drawn from a population and the following draws are independent from the first draw. (Eg. you would draw one card, shuffle it back, then draw another one). In the case of hitting 2 out of 4 Fireblasts after drawing 57 cards (or the reverse, hitting 2 in the top 3), the cards are not replaced and all the subsequent draws are dependent on the previous ones, so it has to be calculated using hypergeometrical distribution, not binomial one.
