HASTY MARIT LAGE! Legacy Gruul Dark Depths Thespian Stage lands combo - Depthcember MTG
Have you considered building depths with the new mutated cultist, I would really like to see you idea of how to make it work. I think a free Lage and a huge eldrazi dropping on turn 1 is funny.
It's funny, but it's win more that comes at the cost of reliability or protection. I've played it a few times on the channel you can find the videos by searching "mutated Cultist" on my page.
Might want to change the font on the thumbnail.
Watchful Radstag and Rampaging Yao Guai are also worth a look here
I've never seen that stag card before
@@crucible_of_words It goes off pretty hard, and this deck can support it
1:07:50 you just sleepwalked into the daze. You can pitch cast the endurance and have mana up to pay for the daze.
I love the yu-gi-oh experience with the deckbuilding "yeah, it has a lot of words on it, must be powerful" lol Good job on the league
Veteran Explorer is a very fun Pauper EDH commander, as someone that enjoys both these formats immensely.
Welcome indeed. I love this deck.
OK, I'm paying attention.
There was a white prison deck that did ok a year ago with chrome moxes, chancellors, ingenious smith (win con in that build) and phyrexian metamorph
Instant like for Metalworker!
Thumbnail goes hardddddd
I just wanted to come back and post for those of you who hate Eldrazi and just let you know that I put up three consecutive 5-0 leagues. #draz4lyfe
unparalleled thumbnail game
:D
Absolutely elite
So weird the total absence of Mox Opal.
exactly my thoughts
hard agree, also think lavaspur boots deserves thinking about, especially with a tap ability for metalworker and oswald, plus just swinging in with constructs
white decks are bad who knew
Oh hey it's that deck we spoke about at the weekend!
It's only "Esper control" if the deck contains at least 3 copies of "Esper charm" pretty sure that's in the bible.
Why lantern is in every painter list? Noob question
Safety valve against shuffle titans/gaeas blessing that cantrips and the format generally utilizes the graveyard as a second hand.
@@whiffypenguin are shuffle titans common? i feel like sneak n show is the only deck playing it. i agree, maindeck hate for the big reanimate fatties, searchable off urzas saga
get it off saga (or occasionally engineer) and your [rescaminator/delver/painter/oops/breakfast] opponent is sad. worstcase if you draw it in a g1 where its not good, you can just sack it for a card
glad to see you playing painter. If i may drop my two cents: I think you shouldnt cut Sagas for moon. Both cards are just insanely good so you just accept one being dead when you have the other.
@@todeshorst1697 you reckon? Interesting take. I was worried about having too many dead draws in a format that is so gas right now. I can certainly believe I'm wrong tho
@@crucible_of_words it is a hot take on my part for sure. I know the regulars tend to cut at least 1 saga as well. However not cutting any saga has served me well ( i instead cut all the blasts vs eldrazi. Granted i do run abrade over bolt main so Chalice/null rod is less of an issue)
@@todeshorst1697 Chiming in to say I also never cut Saga, even when bringing in all four moons. I only bring in Moon when I know it's a slam dunk like vs Eldrazi, and when it's in play you don't mind losing access to Sagas.
Being a painter main and playing TOR painter stompy at EW. You absolutely need to trim sagas for moons post board. I cut two sagas when I bring in the moons. I’m also on 23 lands though to make up for this.
Super excited to watch you play Callum’s list!
@@whiffypenguin I don't play it half as well as Callum. I'm not amazing at painter and this list is quite different. Cool tho
The play patterns are wildly different then with goblins as you mentioned through the video. I know it’s not what you do, but recording 3 or 4 leagues with the deck to learn the play patterns would surely up your win percentage. I played a similar list at ew.
@@whiffypenguin Yeah, I have no doubt that playing 5 leagues would make a huge difference in how well I played it. Although I don't have time for that XD
25:34 You should just make a servo and plow your own constuct for max life to play around Bowmasters and flash threats.
I guess Petty Theft would punish anyway.
If you wait until the end they will probably cast Borrower though, and you can plow the consturct in response
Very first turn, fetching island at sorcery speed: playing around stifle?
@@zack20cb11 if I'm getting the island anyway, might as well play around a niche card that can happen, stiflenought is about thesedays
I saw this deck made a top 8, but I assumed it was a fluke. But it looks like it has some legs! I’m excited to try it out.
@@randpummill4441 someone suggested running Kaito and I strongly agree with that being a good idea
I was your round 2 Reanimator opponent. I had a lot of dumb luck that match. Game 2 the archon trigger drew the second borrower to beat Marit Lage. GGs again though
tough week for a control deck with the terrible lag :(
I played this with Kaito instead of 1 teferi and the deck really comes alive with it. The basics are a big tension but the deck is mana hungry and sagas are very temporary so it makes sense to have that many
Kaito is so darn good
Still watching but so far excellent play and commentary! I think M1 could’ve been won. G3 like you said Verdict kept would’ve been the nail in the coffin. G1 you could’ve plowed your own construct to get another turn, which also meant a servo turning into a thopter.
@marcusewaldh1246 yeah, I definitely saw a bunch of different lines for round one in hindsight. Just getting to grips with it really
Finished the video now. Excellent work! Sideboard hedging is indeed very challenging, but rewarding at the same time. I hope you play more! I will continue tweaking the list
ggs❤
gg
Great content and gameplay of depths. Very detailed explanations of lines the content we love if we want to understand a deck.
@@Andy-kf8fl thanks for the kind words.
Did you still have ghost quarter as an out from ouat at the end of your first game v painter? Great games and commentary btw
Yeah I think so
Let’s get more dedicated
Those games vs doomsday were great to watch!
Nicely done!
Would you have a link to your guide to play the deck without the 2 Bayous? Thank you
@@estelaplateada4 if you message me on discord, I can give some advice
What do you think of surgical in round 2? If they've got no basics, you could surgical a trop or fetch or something and remove them all from the deck, drastically lowering their land round, as surgical can get non basics
I don't really like using Surgicals like that as it needs a lot to go right for it to matter.
Sweet deck
This deck is so fun to watch!
Iv never really understood, why do people play the ninjas as three-offs? Imo 4 kaito 4 yuriko should be better right? Even though they’re legendary
I think 4 of the non-legendary one makes sense. I'm not sure about the others. Maybe 10 total Ninja's with Ninjutsu is a good starting point
A quite different list has 5-0'd a league, and what really caught my attention was 4 Peat Bog. Maybe it mitigates a bit the need for the mid Cabal Rits, freeing some slots for more "real" spells. It requires parting ways with Troll, but I am not sure it really is necessary to close the games where the engine is on, and seems to be a very bad card to draw otherwise. Boggart Trawler, on the other hand, is a black card, untapped land and also a very real spell to cast. I think it should be maxed out.
I dont play Legacy as yet but depletion lands are underestimated.
@@curtislegall8324it is very conflicting to play etb tapped lands and dark ritual in the same deck.
Really awesome brew ❤
At 55:00 we discard the portable hole instead of exiling the animate dead, did I miss something?
Nah, that was entirely my bad. Was a little bit disheartened with the deck and played a bit sloppy in the backend.
With less frog and more six control would Long Goodbyes fit better than pushes so you can answer Narset/Teferi through permission?
I love this deck
I had the same experience while testing this deck on my local community. Control and blue decks are heavy played and this made my experience with this deck not successful, even before the ban of vexing bauble.
Hi, what a nice channel you have, love it. In the R3G1, what a puzzle: you could cast the Fleshraker, then the Chalice, which would give you another token, meaning 5 mana from the Gaea's Cradle, then tutor for a Devourer of Destiny and have exactly 4 mana to cast it (Cavern + 3 tokens) to remove the Flickerwisp. This would leave you 4 life for the next turn, praying that they won't get any red permanent ofc ))
@@PirtKid glad you are enjoying it :) There were a few options for sure in that game.
ggs❤
