This trophy deck insane! Mono white (Izzet splash) deck from zero to hero.
I just found this video for my Mothman upgrades, subscribed!!!
Nice upgrades, I just don't get why you'd choose Aether Spike over Counterspell. The latter literally costs like $0.50 lol. Also, the removal of Aurora Shifter is a bad idea I think. Great card for 2 mana.
Would love to see you tackle food and fellowship with merry and pippin wardens of isengard as the alt commander! Been trying to tune it into a food generating monstrosity myself.
hancock has been crazy, idk what im missing but he is really strong even with just himself and the moth out
I miss pip 🥲
@@therealquietwolf I’m still here! I got a full time video editing job which is using up all the time I had to make pip videos. I do have some more planned that I’m sure will be made, when is the real question.
@@PipGoblinBattleCaster Congratulations! Can't wait to see more videos!
Liked and subscribed! New to magic, just picked this deck up as my first one. The fact that Olivia can give everything including herself +2/+2 (sometimes several times a turn if you can spare the mana/treasures) makes a wide board very tall, very quickly. With a lifelink/flying commander, lifelink and flying support, and some sneaky ways to deal with blockers, I really want to add in “Astarion the Decadent.” That gives a high cost Orzhov option to a pre-con that already has a couple high costs in Red, and I love the effect choices. Requisition Raid is a fantastic card - cheap removal is always appreciated (can you tell I play Priest in Hearthstone?), and the fact that you can basically pick and choose to destroy an artifact, an enchantment, and give all your things another +1/+1 on top of what Olivia does is great. Also, in my first ever commander game, Boros Charm won me the game (on my next turn, no less) by protecting all my permanents from a significant board-wipe; and for that reason I think I’ll keep it in my deck for a long time.
I’m pretty sure Gonti can only take 1 card from a player regardless if you hit him with more than one creature. It’s one per combat
Doesn't play infinites but plays toxic? Idk man...
Felidar Retreat is great alternative to Virtue of Loyalty. Can make your creatures really large with Kellan’s ability. The vigilance helps with offence and defence too
Some cool ideas. Thanks for sharing
I am unsure that it matters, but you did mention you do not like adding infinite combos. Then you added the infinite combo cards right next to one another lol. Maybe you missed it but Mindcrank and Bloodchief's Ascension go infinite off one another. I suppose technically Bloodchief is a 'may' ability, so you can opt to not use the combo, but I thought it was funny enough to point out.
@@Riddl3z_ I did realize that lol and thought they both work well enough on their own to include both. Iv not sought them out in combination in any recent games but if it happens by chance it’s fine, just not the main goal of the deck.
@PipGoblinBattleCaster I just thought it was funny 😂 and thought it might be helpful to point out to people, incase they missed it. I'm just getting back into magic, my brother followed me and bought the Mothman Precon. I'll be sending this video to help him out. A lot of good info in here, thanks for the video!
@@Riddl3z_ thanks for sharing bud, I appreciate it. I try to make em for most of the precons that come out but it’s hard to keep up!
I'm partial to Far Wanderings over Kodama's Reach, just because you will likely mill yourself and have 7 or more cards in your graveyard. Its fairly easy to stack your graveyard with this deck, and its the same cost as kodama's but you get 3 basics in play tapped instead.
@@t1junox great point! Thanks for the idea.
Can we get the tricky terrain omo upgrade please?:)
Gonna try out this 100 dollar upgrade now that its 76 hahhah. thanks for the list
You're welcome, let me know how it works out!
This is the only MTG deck I let myself have, because its too expensive of a hobby. Some adds are ones others recommend, but some you suggest are ones I strongly consider. Your removal suggestions are great, other than one or two. Some I didn't consider removing, but may in the future. Overall great suggestions that I will consider along with a few others.
Thanks! Glad it was helpful, folks in your situation are exactly who Im making my videos for.
Sphinx does not need lifelink on the rest of the deck to be good. You play it, copy with the commander and instantly get 4 life which with two sphinxes means 8 energy. If your opponents are not able to remove it until next turn it gets crazy. I did games with this deck with infinite energy from etb triggers in other situations, but outside of that it is the combo that nets you more energy.
Recently picked up this one and appreciate the budget friendly options. Great video!
great video, keep em coming. Would you ever consider doing combo/synergies video?
I would, anything in particular you are looking for?
@@PipGoblinBattleCaster i'm new to MTG, and came from Yugioh background, so i guess the term would be the engine of the deck. as in staple card in each guild, that help with draw, or graveyard etc things you can keep cycling. or core cards of each colour etc. I hope i make sense 😅
@@MCxJudge Yes it does, and I've though about doing something like that and Im sure I will soon. I'll probably approach from a budget perspective but start out by laying out some of the more staple cards in each color and archetype and 2/3 card combo win conditions you could play in popular decks.
Love your content! I was surprised by how many cards were left out despite the amount of energy support in the set. Your voice is okay it just sounds compressed and canny but it doesnt bother me.
Planning on working on the voice some more, had to get this out before the set. Yea it’s a real surprise what they left out. I didn’t add a lot of them because the prices were pretty crazy, once they settle a lot of them would fit in great.
Thanks for upgrade for my new deck. Just need Graveyard Overdrive which I got too :D
Hope you enjoy it!
Yeah I'm interested in the content, and I totally get what you're going for, but as previously commented, I just can't get past that voice enough to make it past the 45 second mark.
Newest video I improve the voice lemme know if that’s any better.
Demn 😮. I just pre ordered a collector booster box. Hope I get the good ones hahahah.
PRETTY GOOD !!!! hope they arent too expensive
I usually only track commander damage if that's a legitimate way for me to win, ie. One of my main win conditions.
Where do you get codes like this? I always get booster packs and never get them.
They are from the promo packs stores give out at events. Prerelease kits also have them. You can only enter a handful of codes from each type of pack for each set. So like 5 promo pack codes and 5 prerelease kit codes. ( not sure on exact numbers but it’s around 5)
@@PipGoblinBattleCaster Thanks Pip!
you need to make that voice changer a lot less anoying if you want to retain your viewers attention. This is a pain to listen to
Agreed. I clicked and am leaving immediately after leaving this comment lol
Yeah, like every Modern Horizons, the card price will skyrocket. I'll try to do pre-release aand some drafst and just get lucky. I'll keeo an eye on all of this cards, mainly for future commander use, maybe Pauper too
Yea I’m also looking to update my pauper decks. It’s one of my favorite formats but I’m not sure how many people would be interested in videos on it. I have 11 decks built and always bust em out in between rounds at my lgs tournaments.
Most of the time I tend to hate house rules however, when it comes to mulligans I promote a very laissez faire attitude. The worst thing is getting a bad hand non-game. And I’m 100% with you about commander damage, why bother most of the time. Even the decks I play against where that’s their main consideration, by the time they have lethal commander damage its within regular damage lethal range. So far my experiences at game stores, most peoples decks have been on par with power levels with any exception lasting a single game. It’s seems like most folks I’ve encountered got the memo.
Yea non games are the worse, no body enjoys it and any rules that help eliminate them I’m all for.
Play what ever you want, this game is competitive, and stop trying to push the narrative that cEDH and edh are different. Most of all stop complaining.
Yes and no, I’m talking about situations where you walk into a shop and people are mostly playing precons /upgraded precons or decks that are not fully optimized for winning and instead are slanted towards creating a game/board state the player wants. There certainly are tables where that is not what’s going on and you can feel free to play whatever you like there. But if you sit down at a table with tymna against some precons what exactly are you trying to do? I’m not calling for people to not play more competitive decks, just how to suss out when and where. I personally don’t like cedh which comes through in the video for sure, and if I’m looking for competitive magic I play limited/standard/pioneer/modern.
One of my friends has a house rule where the first person to deal combat damage in a game gets the monarch regardless of whether there were cards in play that give the monarch or not. He’s not even a particularly aggro-leaning player but I definitely see his logic in trying to give the game some extra forward momentum. We all have our own house rule but most of them are not effecting the game at large. As an example, at my house lowest roll goes first instead of highest. But that’s because I’m a notoriously low roller 🤪
O I really like that monarch rule, helps to slant the game more aggressive! I’m gonna give that a try.
That is a fun house rule.
Veteran Explorer. Use Phyrexian reclamation to get it back a few times. Mind Grind for 15. ... what?# Fine, i'll play a different deck. Activate Krenko, Warp World.
Can you give advice how to win more, as combo player? Coz most of my playgroup all, kind of high power 🥲. I always having struggling, especially somebody keep messing everyone board, is like, t3-7 keep boardwipe. Including no lands permanent, force sacrifice effects.
Send me a link to the deck you are playing I’ll see if I can offer some suggestions.
@@PipGoblinBattleCaster okie thx, working on it
@@PipGoblinBattleCaster why I can't send the link here
please, please please please people! also add all those "Last March of the Ents", Primal Surge and Insurrections into the combo section. its so silly complaining about a combo but then considering those kinds of cards ok
Ok I’ll make sure they get into the 2025 version
Personally, the only thing i dont really like are infinites. Anything else is pretty much fair game. But that's just me. Exception is if your infinite is like a 5 card combo instead of 2. Then its just funny because someone should have been able to stop it.
I've got an infinite in my Bombadil deck that requires 3 cards, saga on chapter 2, 4 blue mana, and 12 generic mana to fire off. Versus an infinite in my Korvold deck that requires 2 cards, and 3 food tokens in play. It will draw me 4 cards each time if Korvold is in play, so I'll certainly get to one of my life drain cards and wipe the table if left unchecked.
Yea the ones that are “well let’s see where this is going” are fun to see.
At five cards it’s no longer a combo, it’s a damn Rube Goldberg machine.
@@deeterful This might be my favorite comment on the channel yet, lol
Mox are banned in commander so no one should be playing them to be fair.
Fair.
I built a Kenrith tax deck where I add a bunch of tax effects and irs effects. The other half of the deck are voting cards and monarchy cards. I called it my government/politics deck. It only has 1 3 card infinite combo that is only reserved for when someone is just dumpstering the table. There is little tutors and I usually use those to get more taxation cards anyway. I usually don’t win but I get satisfaction seeing people slightly annoyed when I ask pay the 1?
Valid way to have fun, I also have a similar Kenrith deck and bring it out when folks aren't totally truthful about what they are trying to do on game one. Happened last night lol!
Dig the video, but man, that voice changer is mad obnoxious. Please just dont. For your own sake, dont.
Yea sorry, my normal voice sounds totally disconnected from the goblin. Been toying with other options but for now this is what I have.
@@PipGoblinBattleCaster I agree with this guy, the voice changer straight up sucks
Best V-tuber 👑
*takes a bow*
gobbi voice funni
Hahahah this speaks the truth. I'm sharing this to my group! My group does not really have any rules, we just say to any new people we are casual enjoyers. Honestly we play with a lot of pros as well that combo out with infinite squirrels but thats fine cause we learn a lot from the experience. Can't wait for your future videos about the next set. Its gonna be crazyyyy!
Thanks for sharing, lemme know what they think!
Oh Pip did you see the debut video for modern horizons? Can't wait for your videos about that set when it comes out.
YES! Very spicy, I'm already starting to brew up some decks. Going to wait till it's fully spoiled before I release anything though.
I know whta you say bro about win conditions, thats why i try to be really tricky and control my opponents to actually win, for example, i run Hulkbreaker Horror which is not expensive in Europe and some cards that let you copy spells or creatures you control, so whenever you got two copies of hulkbreaker, you can actually clean your opponents table and have control until you win the game. Also for damage, i run True Conviction which i think is cheap (money wise), it does cost 6 mana (3 white color) but with Kellan you could just cheat in. With True Conviction you get Double Strike and Lifelink to all your creatures, so it is like a semi Akroma Will to finishing off some opponents while gaining a lot of life. Cards that can copy your spells or creatures are, Three Steps Ahead which it can be seen in this video, Invasion of Vyrn, which can draw you 3 cards and discard one card (also when you destroy a battle, Kellan triggers from the front Mana Value of the Battle), and when you destroy it creates an artifact that lets you copy a spell you control for one mana (just once sadly) and the new Visage Bandit, which can be plotted and ready to use to copy any of your big or utility creatures. I hope this helps the Kellan community
Hulkbreaker horror is such a cool card, never had a deck that clones it but I can see how much fun that would be. Thats a really cool idea for an include. I'm gonna have to pick one up and give it a try. True conviction is a super fun over the top card that I tried to play a ton of when it initially came out. Good times :)
Nice video! I love the talking goblin and I really hope you keep making more!
Thanks buddy! Trying to put out 1-2 videos a week moving forward!
Love the lategame wincon ideas! I have a lot of trouble with getting focused out while playing mothman. Im gonna try a few of your suggestions and see if i can turn it into a deck that can win more games!
Let me know how it goes!
@PipGoblinBattleCaster will do! I actually have the vraska laying around, and this is the perfect home for it.
Thank you, little goblin man.
:)
Nice! Now I have all the update I need for this deck and Mothman. Thank very much for these in depth upgrade videos.
Thanks! I love the Mothman deck and I was looking for upgrades. This is perrfect. Can you make an upgrade guide for the Gonti commander deck?
There is one! From about 2 weeks ago, check the channel page!
@@PipGoblinBattleCaster nice, thanks!
I'll make a more budget friendly version of the deck and use this list as an upgrade. Nice list
100$ is budget nowadays, huh? Feels bad man :(
You van go even lower. I saw a shot that someone built a 30$ Kellan deck. Is probablynon th weaker side, but is still decent. Honestly, 100$ ain't that bad either
I usually use it because it’s a nice round number. If you check the deck list link and down in the considering version you can get it for a lot cheaper. Probably about $50, should be stronger than most precons too.
I think that with Gonti's ability you actually can play lands, because on how it's worded. It's not casting but play, meaning that lands are added to the equation.
That’s correct, did I say otherwise? If so whoops!
