We have results from MTGO Leagues, Challenges, Preliminaries, and a Showcase Challenge. I cut this week short as to not mix results from pre and post Warhammer 40K. This video is unscripted because I have been working on a higher production value long-form breakdown of every Scam deck in Legacy. Please let me know if you think this trade-off was worth it.

😂
Cool video 👍
Thanks for watching! 🤙
Wait wait wait, back up a bit, you have a friend who changed his legal name to be the same as his favourite MTG deck theme?
Matt Chow aka Best A&C Games GTA area judge
It’s been a long time haha 😂
nice, great content
oooh this is nice. what a hidden gem. good work
Thanks for watching and letting me know!
5:20 yep, I was waiting for an artifact/affinity deck to show up!
I just found your channel from this video, I love how in depth your deck techs and meta analysis is, and I love you you take time to explain exactly what you’re doing! I’m amazed that you don’t have thousands more subscribers. Cheers from a fellow Matt, looking forward to coming along for the ride!
Thanks Matt, that means a lot!
Any thoughts on why this list doesn't play surveil lands?
It’s probably worthwhile to try a Meticulous Archive in place of one of the Tundras.
Have you tested with karakas? The Samwise Karakas loop in a white based deck has been very oppressive in my experience and seems to have very little opportunity cost.
It’s a good idea that I hadn’t considered, especially because of the Sam synergy. The opportunity cost of another non-blue, non basic land might be too high though, the manabase already felt a kinda greedy.
Sam is among my favorite cards printed in recent history. There are so many cool interactions it enables. Love the vids, keep up the great work!
Thanks! I’m so glad I got to show off the Samwise loop haha
Really enjoying your content and metagame analysis Matt - keep up the great work
Thanks Douges! I really appreciate it, and am likewise always happy to see what you’re making!
Thank you so so much for this! I appreciate all the time it takes to make these, and the amount of knowledge in them. I'm truely grateful.
clean,to the point, perfect
This is good stuff. I’d put crystal vein in an intermediate bucket myself different to depletion lands, the odyssey and homelands saclands, etc. Crystal vein also stands to get progressively stronger as more busted 2 colorless three cmc threats are printed. It’s obviously not there yet but in another few years I could see them as necessities.
Matt Chow's legacy videos are a national treasure. Legacy needs it, don't stop!
The draw back being a restriction of color used to cast colored spells. With exception of affinity you could get screwed easily by having a lack of the needed color and this is even more true with multi color decks.
This is a great point that I didn’t mention!
Awesome video! I'm usually an island, ponder, keep kinda guy but you made me want to try more sol land strategies. Your metagame breakdown and the educational legacy videos are super informative. Keep it up Matt!
I’m also very much an Island Ponder player! Playing Ancient Tomb decks is such a different challenge and they are so enjoyable
sticker cards suck. It's a stupid annoying mechanic which they obviously regret. seeing a sticker card in actual table play is a huge eye roll moment
The interaction with the player trying to explain you how to use Bauble was kinda funny
I feel bad, because I assumed they were being snarky or rude. Turns out they were super nice and helpful 😂
My perspective is that the ban may pre-empt a functionally approximate version of sticker goblin releasing in the near future, possibly even within MH3. This would prevent goblins from having an 8-of of an effective combo enabler.
That’s certainly a possibility. I imagine it would have to be in one of the MH3 Commander decks as that level of fast mana is likely too much for Modern to absorb. Gavin Verhey tackled the changes in the Pauper format on Good Morning Magic and I didn’t get the sense that a new version was coming down the pipeline from the language he used to talk about it ruclips.net/video/-VvdrCH0zgQ/видео.htmlsi=etrKHA51Oh4BQaV8
Seething Song on a 2/2 goblin body will probably return in a future commander set.
VERY enlightening. Been pravticing legacy for a couple months, shifting gears every couple based on decklists but ive not been able to pick up on why they keep changing. Turns out, you just have lots of options for how you play. Long live reanimator decks!
The overall metagame and card choices made in top performing lists has so much depth to it, so understanding it can be difficult to grasp at a cursory glance. Something that I think gets lost in Magic discourse is how player preference and play-style can vastly impact what decks an individual can or will succeed with. Thanks for letting me know your thoughts, I’m glad you enjoyed it and found it useful!
Awesome video! Watched it yesterday night on mobile, but had to open it again on desktop today to show my appreciation. Looking forward to more.
That’s so kind of you! Thanks for taking the time to let me know!
ur so missing 2 days undoing
Send me a list, I’ll consider playing it
@@Matt_Chow dont have a list but a friend plays it as a control deck but with the chance of beating combo doing narset+days. the list would be more or less the one u played, swapping both get lost to play the days undoing. i'd probably also cut a snappy to add a surveil land or mystic sanctuary. 1-2 lorien would also be great :)
Crucible of Words Esper Control Gameplay ruclips.net/video/jMW5j-qDsFw/видео.htmlsi=Vldc-oe8pYVHLDNv ruclips.net/video/_ClsHYvkhVw/видео.htmlsi=JGsE2nKHzJ8OR_tB
Also, Love the @crucibleofwords shoutout!
Ah crap! I forgot to link his gameplay like I said I would
@@Matt_Chow you could still edit and put it in the description if you want to
Pest control is absolutely bonkers, and i would argue single handedly opened up or provided a key piece to making esper tempo and bw high tier decks. Love your content keep it up
Painter :(
😢
For the Temur Delver land flex slot I prefer a red-blue surveil land to Mystic Sanctuary.
Makes sense, is there room to play both and only 3 volcs?
@@Matt_Chow No and it also doesn't make sense because Mystic Sanctuary isn't good enough in current RUG Delver anyways. It was played in UR Delver mostly to recurr Expressive Iteration and you can't do the same with adventure creatures like Questing Druid. In general I would say the stock mana base of RUG Delver is 8 fetches 4 Volc 4 Wasteland 1 Tropical and then for the 18th land either a basic Island, Thundering Falls or second Tropical.
nice video! love your content as always. there's an upcoming tournament in my city and I wanted to ask if you think esper rescaminator or 4c doomsday are better positioned? I do expect some Stiflenought, though Jace WoM in the board dodges that decks interaction for doomsday
They’re really different decks, which one do you have more practice with?
@@Matt_Chow about both equally - i'm going to run both decks through a gauntlet of meta decks with a friend, but if i remain undecided i might decide to go with doomsday due to the meta expecting tonnes of scam
If you got 4 narset, you really ought to play a copy of Days undoing.
It’s a fair suggestion, I’ve personally found it very clunky and slow. Days Undoing is only really good with a Narset in play and my experience is generally if I keep a Narset in play, I’m winning the game anyways
@Matt_Chow well its really just a "fuck you, I win" button. The argument of it being bad without Narset is easily applied to snapcaster mage without good spells in gy, but you got 3 of those. Another card I've really liked in Jeskai has been Triumph of Saint Katherine.
this is a super informative and easy to follow video, ive been following legacy for a year-ish at this point and i finally got mtgo. this is going to help a lot with my play patterns. thank you!
Great video mate !!! Keep it going! Amazing =D
Appreciate it 🤙 glad you enjoyed!
Would you recommend Get Lost in this deck?
I like it more than March of Otherworldly light personally. One key interaction I forgot to mention is that it is extremely potent against Leyline Binding.
Control is a viable strategy that is at the legacy power level. Not the most explosive, and there are no free wins. Practiced pilots will get a lot out of the archetype.
ad breaks are so goood i want to play them all (except the storm one)
fun
Spicy deck thing was cool. Was a nice listen while at work. Keep em coming!
What is the sideboard of that spicy bug beans decklist? Thank so much! Great work! Keep on rocking!
It’s a relatively normal looking sideboard for a fair blue deck, lacking maindeck removal Ark4n opted for Murderous Cut in the board which also triggers Beans. www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/6317337#paper
The ad breaks were hilarious and cool! Nice element to spice up the content
Thanks conrad🔥
love the ad breaks
Glad you enjoyed, thanks for letting me know!
the only thing is you didn't mention the swords to plowshares maindeck plan. i understand it can be hard to get in at 30 seconds, but i will mention it as it is a very good variant currently imo. great stuff though!
Great point! When I wrote and produced this, it wasn’t a commonplace strategy to play maindeck removal, but definitely something for players to be aware of now🗡️ 🧑🌾
Wait… …weren’t people complaining about The One Ring a couple months ago? What happened to getting that card banned?
I don’t like that The One Ring is super expensive but the idea people were advocating for a ban is hilarious. 😂
Jeskai is so good- and underplayed/underated
Really great niche you're carving here: Succinct metagame updates through a data lens. Thanks!
I really appreciate that! Thanks for sharing!
I think rescaminator is likely to be the best deck in the meta, with the caveat that it's very difficult to pilot. It has two fundamentally different strategies that are difficult to pilot, fair and combo. this is just hard to figure out for a lot of players. i imagine we'll see it be at the top with varying results because of this. sidenote: killabee is the goat
Rescaminator is very good, I think it may go through cycles, as players learn and internalize the leveling game. This is one of the things that makes the deck fascinating for me. It feels kinda Splinter-Twin-esque in gameplay dynamics. KillaBee is the GOAT, I agree.
Kudos to you for fixing that error. Love the content regardless :)
I gotta own and fix my mistakes 🥲 Thanks for letting me know on the original upload or I might not have had time to fix it today
Rescaminator without the graveyard is just an awful tempo deck. Now that everyone is packing graveyard hate, Rescaminator is declining.
I think that’s a component, but the deck has a lot more depth and can’t simply be beaten with hate.
