You are the only creator who, for some reason, knows about Farsight Ritual. Every other creator i watch talks about how there is no good replacement for Deluge, and how it sucks. No matter how many times i comment Ritual is just as good, they dont listen lol. So props to you, man, you are top tier in skills and entertainment.
This is awesome. I have loved both of the Azorius control decks you have shared with us since rotation. Beza is a game changer :) Great video as always!
Yep, I like the most fact, that it is useful in both matchups, aggro and control, you it gives you less no-games and adds to decision making :) Great card (and exile effect is relevant)
I played CGB's recent "no win con UW" deck for a few hours last night. As someone who played UW control almost exclusively for the past year or so on Arena, it's crazy how much I missed Emperor and to a lesser extent Farewell. Spellgyre sure is not memory deluge either. I am glad to see Jace in this version and I haven't tried farsight ritual yet.
Well, no doubt that control lost a lot of tools - however I find Beza to be decent replacement (I guess for emperor, as it's same curve) - and it makes it a bit easier. But yeah, deluge+emperor are huge cards that don't have direct replacements. Farsight is nice, but you generally need a bit more card draw in deck, to substitude deluge's flashback. However, it can be stronger midgame, to get this land+sweeper with bargain 🔥🦥
Very impressive save vs. Urabrask Forge! I keep waiting for an opponent to show up with a Simulacrum Synthesizer deck when you're running lists like this with no artifact removal.
Maybe someday, but yeah, for now we need to be satisfied with a bit worse card draw :) At least Beza really gives this deck a lot of "accidental card draw", so that helps :)
@@SlothMtgwhats worse is how many words have many different meanings depending on context. A very easy example is the words “left and right” in one context they are opposite of each other, in a different context they mean wildly different things. “I left it right there” like what!?! it makes for a very eloquent spoken language but what an impressive task to master as a second language.
Awesome brew of a deck !! I made some small adjustments, such as adding a small sideboard that really makes this a lockdown deck (I have High Noon, Rest in Peace in the SB). I also replaced 1 temporary lockdown and the 2 Jace, The Perfected Mind with 1 Grand Abolisher and 2 Jace Reawakened. Again, making sure to lock things down and I can get that one back with my Starfall. Same goes for the looting ability on Jace, making sure I get something in the graveyard when I need to and just drawing cards 🙂
17:40 😂 everything you say is genius and bright!! I totally respect your command of English btw. I heard you use "lollygagging" in your last video and almost my phone. How in the hell did you come across that word?!
I like farsight ritual so much more than memory deluge. It's really good at refilling, but not as inherently good. getting 4 for 1'd feels bad after one deluge. Ritual feels more balanced
This is also my build but I splashed green like always...inspired from you and sonio. I added tyrannax rex as my main wincon then I put 4 copies of aven interrupter plus cosmic rebirth. Does it remind you of shigeki loop? Lol
I'll definitely try this list! Check out this super fun Selesnya control deck I found while losing a match on the ladder. I am having pretty decent winrate with it. Deck 6 Forest 5 Plains 2 Brushland 4 Obstinate Baloth 2 Razorverge Thicket 1 Blast Zone 4 Fabled Passage 4 Temporary Lockdown 1 Union of the Third Path 1 Titania's Command 2 Demolition Field 2 Conduit of Worlds 1 Nissa, Ascended Animist 1 Wrenn and Realmbreaker 1 Tranquil Frillback 4 Get Lost 4 Glimpse the Core 2 Restless Prairie 2 Archdruid's Charm 2 Lush Portico 4 Beza, the Bounding Spring 4 Starfall Invocation 1 Season of Gathering
Hah, love to hear this man :D Counterspells are very cool (and also pretty mean), but glad to see non-counterspell enjoyers also being here and enjoying the channel!❤🦥
2 Jace is too much for main list, probably the same for 4 lockdowns. I run Eternal wanderer for blinking Beza and Teferi for draw cards. Probably you should run 1 more for Spellgyre. White season and wandering are a good way for handle with artifacts and annoying permanents. Same with blue season. Anyways the decks looks solid.
For Jace, I try to be solid with anti-value decks, but you might be right and maybe we can go without Jaces, they are more of wincon that value card (defending it is hard). For 4x lockdowns, I would say it's best control card of standard atm, so I will definitely keep 4x in probably most builds. Eternal Wanderer + Beza is a cool interaction, never thought about it! Glad you enjoyed, thanks for comment man :)
Great azorius control video. I was originally using parting gust as well, but I felt like it was a bit too slow. I'm currently trying out 3x long river's pull, 2 unions for some life gain and 2 stoic sphinxes for beaters and its been working decently well. As much i love Jace milling people out, I think he's a bit too slow for this aggro filled meta. I want to try him in a new dimir list with breach the multiverse potentially. Hope to see you play some more dimir control down the line as well.
You realize you take no Damage from shel if you use far sight ritual? It says put two cards in your hand not draw two cards the wording is just like deluge
Yeah, I generally know this, but maybe I missed it in some games in the heat of battle? Usually I remember, but when commentating everything is possible :D
imagine beza and starfall invocation in tutelage man oh man beza is perfect it can draw you a card gain you life and produce blockers which ia what that deck needs to do its thing .
UW control for me??? I couldn’t ask for anything better. Beza is so cool.
Indeed my friend, hoped you will like it - this might be type of Azorius that we will be playing for a long time :D Very glad you enjoyed it!❤❤🦥
@@SlothMtgIncredible. You even pronounced my last name correctly. What a day.
Hah, I had like 7 takes on this part, so I really tried to get it right :D Thanks for being awesome ❤🦥

Ok this is Glorious Azorius day!
Glazorious day? 😏😉
THE ABSOLUTE LEGENDARY STREAK OF A LEGEND!!!!!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Glazorious sounds perfect :D
Parting Gust has become an auto include in any white deck I have. It’s just so versatile.
Yep, I like the most fact, that it is useful in both matchups, aggro and control, you it gives you less no-games and adds to decision making :) Great card (and exile effect is relevant)
When Sloth has to discard anything-
"I kinda want the (insert any card)"
Then still discards it
Man, this is so true 😂🤷♂️🦥

There will never be a fair control tool like Memory Deluge again 😢

@@SlothMtgincidental means it just kinda happens from time to time, accidental implies a mistake. Your English is great, just being helpful
Yeah, you are 100% correct - I think I've made this mistake way too many times :D Thanks Bro - I think I will correct it thanks to this comment ❤🦥

Control looks cool, but that first match was 17 minutes long. Brutal. Been loving that rat deck you posted a few days ago!

Skyrim guards, "no lollygagging" :P 😂🤷♂️🦥
this is Glorious Beza day
"Please respect my fish."
Hey awesome sloth! I'm playing an almost identical,deck just without spellgyre and a few more long rivers pull. I'm liking it so far.
Yeah, spellgyre is something I'm still experimenting with :) Cool card overall
my man!!! been waiting for this ))
Made me happy to read this :D
I like farsight ritual so much more than memory deluge. It's really good at refilling, but not as inherently good. getting 4 for 1'd feels bad after one deluge. Ritual feels more balanced
Awesome deck man. Very impressed.
Please keep control alive for us!
Will do, I will always be a control player at heart :)
This is also my build but I splashed green like always...inspired from you and sonio. I added tyrannax rex as my main wincon then I put 4 copies of aven interrupter plus cosmic rebirth. Does it remind you of shigeki loop? Lol
Seems cool, bant is on my list as well :)
I'll definitely try this list!

Beza and Parting works well 💪💪
Indeed, guess they were created for each other!:)❤🦥🔥🔥
Bant control with cornucopia and baloth have made the ladder very easy so far for me.
Yeah, I think you will enjoy tomorrow's deck - not exactly this, buy on same track :D Bant should be very good atm, gonna test it for sure
@@SlothMtg Nice good to hear I enjoyed today’s as well!
You realize you take no
Damage from shel if you use far sight ritual? It says put two cards in your hand not draw two cards the wording is just like deluge
Yeah, I generally know this, but maybe I missed it in some games in the heat of battle? Usually I remember, but when commentating everything is possible :D
Any thoughts on Fountainport Bell? Been running it in a jeskai control list and I’m actually really impressed. Never miss a land drop.
Oh sweet glorious control 😊
Indeed, the most classic of classics :D
These cards could be good.

Hi sloth, have you try mindsplice apparatus ?
Not yet, but funny you said this - I literally though about how to build it, like 10 minutes ago :D
Merci pour toutes ces videos🤩
Everyone BOO THIS MAN!!!! BOOOOOO!!!!!
i wish with all my falling star heart that we got sphinx tutelage back in standard. 😅
imagine beza and starfall invocation in tutelage man oh man beza is perfect it can draw you a card gain you life and produce blockers which ia what that deck needs to do its thing .
how about a union of third path?
It's cool, usually I don't go for it as Beza helps with lifegain, but definitely possible choice :)
Sup bro!
Subscribe today! 🤓
Sup!:D
Yes, please do ❤🦥
BO3?
This deck is not that good you don't even run a shinx or tef planes walker.
Azorius Day at The Slotherhouse! Let's go, Goosefather!
