Pretty Deece is easily the highlight of month for me, these are always amazing.

I say this with all the love and admiration for this show, but this episode acutely reminds me of jon bois/chart party/dorktown in the best ways possible. This is far and away the best pretty deece to date.

It's supposed to, Jon's series is called Pretty Good, hard to get a closer callout than "Pretty Deece"

I love learning about the history of Magic. Truly the Wild West of MTG back then, back when the game was much less popular or renown, no sleeves, rowdy audience, no internet sites to browse for deck ideas (at least not to the extent we have now). Original decks abounded and created what we now know to be obviously insane combos but back then, no one seemed to understand thier worth. I'd love to see more videos like this!

Magic complexity is amazing, two simple strategies against each other creates one immense decision tree which only the surface I can comprehend. I love this game.

Love this episode and the chart party infulence but I think it still need a little work before it good. I think the slides showing the board states and the end of each turn dont convey what happen that turn very well. Especially with how fast they move to people unfamiliar with the decks. I think showing what spell were cast (or cards used like necro or treetop) each turn would do a better job at showing what actually happened each turn way better than lands + card in hand at the end of each turn. Like showing what hand destruction happen or what spell got countered need to be front and center when you are showing so many broad states and turn all at once. Keep of the fucking work tho, love this series

The presentation of a game is remarkably poorly done. At 9:42 why is Unmask shown for only 1 second? 9:45 What does Grief have to do with a subject? This shit at 17:17 is unbearable. Music is often too loud. I understand most cards used (not all) and can barely follow. Some better way is needed to make videos like this.

Next to Rhystic Studies, Pretty Deece is one of the series drop everything to watch

I have watched this 5-game set at least 20 times and even still, watching this have me chills. The additional commentary is great and mirrors so much of how this game made me feel when I first saw it.

Thank you for making this piece of MTG history relevant, without your narration I would have never gotten to enjoy this moment !

What an absolutely beautiful analysis of a set of magic games. This was such a work of art to experience, from explaining the decks to showing David's obvious stress under the situation to even including the crowd reactions, you really highlighted what makes this era of magic so unique to watch and experience. Thanks for the video. I would love to see more like it

The fact that there was a tag protector on the beanie baby while they're riffle shuffling unsleeved duals is WILD!

The music is a bit loud at points, but other than that I love seeing pretty deece.

It’s your “The anatomy of luck” video on steroids

I started in 95' and I remember two matches: PT Paris where Mike Long won with ProsBloom and this match. When I was teenage, a little younger than Davis, I attended a good sized extended tournament in Chicago prior to Time Spiral's banning (Spring 2000 maybe?). In spite of all the Time Spiral Blue floating around, I made it to day two at that tournament with a rogue deck list, sort of like Davis' deck. I still have fond memories of that event, such as seeing people using Alpha & Beta Black Lotuses unsleeved (not part of the tournament). I'd never do it again, but it provided some interesting perspective.

I just got back into watching Pretty Deece, and like magic you come out with a new episode right after I finished the playlist. You guys rock!

I could listen to hours upon hours of you very intensely explaining decks and matchups like this with that tense Necro music. Your passion is very visible in these videos and I can't get enough of this series.

This is the only youtube series I repeatedly binge through over and over again. Even now I go back and watch 5~6 Pretty dece vids at a time because the flow is so good and the commentary is timeless. Exemplary work.

I think I experienced a brand new emotion when you said the final scripted lines. "But you still gotta play the games. And therein lies the rub." I've never experienced that level of verbal despair in my life. It was bone-chilling. What the hell, Jon. You're a born narrator. Thank you for all the work you and your conspirators put into this show.

Pretty Deece is the best MTG content. It's Magic Man Sam at a bit of distant second but you can feel the love in every video. Even the end of organised play one.

Wow. That was an amazing video. Suspense and dread. The music added so much along with the editing. Thank you. It was a joy to watch.

Glad to see you're back, Jon. It's always a treat to sit down and listen to your smooth voice over Wizard Squares for an extended period of time.

i cannot tell you how cathartic it was waking up to 46 minutes of Pretty Deece on a bad day. it smoothed my morning and the rest of my day in a calming and important way i cannot properly describe. Thank you, Jon

Best video I’ve seen in a while. Period. Man, the way this series mixes good MtG content, analysis, math, philosophy and good humor is outstanding. So glad pretty deece is back.

I absolutely love Pretty Deece! I'm so happy to have seen it pop up again in my sub feed ♡♡♡ keep em coming!

always love these. it's good to see bits of mtg history

Man, only 11 minutes in and I'm loving just soaking this old Magic. I truly wish I was able to play competitively then, just to taste being stomped by these kind of decks.

Fantastic work as always Jon. I love these videos.

I love these! This is an awesome gift! Thank you!

This was absolutely incredible. A testament to the beauty and power of older Magic. With the rise of Premodern these days, videos like this make me salivate and dream of the good old days. Thank you SO much for this.

I remember watching this match in 2000 (you had to download the zip files back then to view them). The crowd was so loud during this match that the players could hear their reactions. You can hear Randy constantly warn the audience to stop being so loud. I started playing in 1994 and these were considered the new whipersnapper cards 😅

This is one of the only videos that talks about the internal struggle of a player in their own head and I think it's something that deserves being talked about a lot more. I just punted an RCQ top 8 a few months ago to my own nerves... my opponent capitalized, sure, but it was my game to punt and I did. Beautifully spoken. I'm sad that we won't see more Pretty Deece videos

I love these videos so very much, thanks for brining pretty deece back

I’ve been rewatching this match between Maher and Davis for years. It’s entertaining every time I watch it. The commentary and audience reaction adds a lot to it.

Been watching a lot of that Jon Bois guy eh? Love it! Excellent video!
