"But CGB, how old are you?"
Age isn't really a concept to a control wizard. Extra time is a resource which can be cast for anywhere 2 mana (busted) to 7 mana (also busted). By some measurements CGB is well over 200 years old. That's just how wizards be.
CGB has a beta Simulacrum card that takes all the aging for him.
That’s hilarious
I've taken to casting Time Walk with Chandra Beacon of Hope on the battlefield. So many salty scoops. Had someone the other night who was gracious enough to let me play three massive turns in a row, folded when I double cast Time Walk again.
Edit: I tend to cackle like a madman when I become the master of Time and Space.
Old enough to remember a Rob Zombie song :)
Well done making your own brew! After the dissatisfaction of netdecking in Timeless, I hope this sparks joy.
I am a keep to the end viewer, love your content CGB and answering your questions:
*CEDH is busted to watch
*Timeless content for me is going to depend on how curated is the format
*Love the uncut content, feels more Arena real (loses are a QUITE IMPORTANT part of Magic)
*Would love some once a week Explorer content (love and play Pioneer)
You rock men, love your content
Your theory proves right with me. I don't think I'm going to play Timeless in the near future (or at all, to be honest), but I do love watching it and seeing the crazy combos and other stuff that populates the format.
As for the uneditted video of yesterday, one every now and then is welcomed. I'm not the kind of person that watches videos of that length regularly , but I enjoy them occasionally.
Opinions:
1. I think you should play more of what you enjoy. A lot of your viewers, the true cool kids club, care about you having fun. If that makes it easier to put out the daily videos, then we only win. That being said, I want to see more HB 😁
2. I like the clean look of the edited videos, but I also like your rambles between videos from live footage. I also like that we got more footage yesterday. It balances out for the most part.
3. Thank you, CGB, for years of daily content. You're the real cool kid, and we appreciate you
interesting deck, choosing to cut sheoldred is a very weird choice. Also there are no gix's command so winning against the convoke guy is pretty hard.
He literally says at 4:50 that he's looking for gix. So it was in there while he was playing the convoke deck...
Cutting sheoldred is perfectly fine. It’s control who needs creatures
That loss to the bolt into Squee was so infuriating.
Mono red is known for scamming win
He should have milled himself with the Reef. He basically gave the opponent two Squees.
Mono red does not lose by scamming. They win by precisely timed game winning spells. RDW’s.
Yeah game losing mill. Youre only giving your opponent more resources by milling red
So, forgot to comment on the timeless video, but here to say that I love the honesty of showing the games how they were, not cherrypicking nice wins or anything of the kind.
Even if it's not a 2h video showing every single game, just showing the deck at its best, at its worst, and somewhere in between, with an outro that said "I went 10-15" would already be great.
And I, for one, like a longer video, even if I am not representative of the mean Cool Kid.
haven't touched standard ever since timeless came out (after flaming wizards on instagram when they announced it btw)
with that said, we'd love to watch you play control in Timeless.
"Easy" to control meta but the control v. control matchups are pretty interesting!
Honest answer to your questions at the end (But no questions CGB!): I'm happy to see more Timeless, but the most fun videos tend to be the ones where you're enjoying playing the deck and the game, so Historic Brawl is probably the format of choice for me.
I know you said you're not really interested in Timeless CGB, I just thought it would be cool to see your brew options expanded. I suppose my order of interest is Standard->Brawl->Timeless, despite standard kinda sucking right now. Much love, and thanks for touring the Arena on our behalf.
Hey man, thanks for making MTG look like fun again.. may not play arena but will definitely buy them cards again. Stopped at mirrodin so I got alot of catching up. Thanks again CVG! 🤙
Congrats on building your own deck CGB, always knew you had it in you.
For me, at least, I looked at 2 hours of video from CGB and thought "I just don't have time to watch all of this." It's cool on a weekend when most other content creators aren't posting or when other content is dry, but especially end of year, lots of people have lots of content they put out celebrating the year, so I just watched that Rakdos Burn video in between when other content creators posted their stuff. I think the unedited is fine sometimes, but I enjoy more cultivated content generally speaking. I appreciate that you're willing to work on improving your content for your fans, but as someone who always watches your video daily anyway, it's all good to me anyway. Thanks for the hard work, and good luck with the new year!
i enjoy uncut, ways i think vs how someone else thinks and plays is always beneficial in my opinion
Your theory on timeless is spot on, at least for me. You couldn't pay me to play Timeless, but I think it's very interesting to watch.
I liked the unediting... and I liked the honest feedback on the cards at the end.
Best mtg content on RUclips. Happy New Years
Like the deck and I love the thoughts about the deck at the end. different possibilities to lern to be better. :)
Man, it was neat seeing CGB sneak a Battleship stream in the middle of a MTG video.
Enjoyed it. I would love to see the rebuilt version in the future.
This is part of the reason why I like running Misery's Shadow in almost any Black inclusive deck, plus it is a good Mana sink.
Ego drain is workin pretty well for me with the mastermind. T1-2 before the drawback disables, its totally a judgement call if you oppo is aggressive.
Playing a version of this but I play white with it. I really like this version and would be cheap to add to my decklists because I own 97% of the cards if not all already. Really cool list. Thanks for sharing! 🎉🎉🎉
For reference
I’m not playing evolved sleeper, Jairo, Malcom, underdog, preacher, or virtue.
Added main deck wandering emp, destroy evil, raffine, wedding, white virtue and bats. Lots of 1/2 offs very few cards playing 3/4 of. Had a ton of luck with it. Win rate has been close to 65% in the last 24 games. I play best of 3.
Would like to see a timeless deck that doesn’t contain the same 24 cards in 80-% of decks 😂
Try out the version of this deck that drops the boats and the few other cards you don’t like and toss in a few more controlling type white cards mentioned above. Again I play BO3 but could def adjust for BO1. Thanks again! Love the variety you’re bringing out. Quickly becoming one of the most watched on my rotation of magic content. 🎉🎉🎉
I really been liking this boros or mardu discover deck. All favor and appraiser for the discover into angelfire ignition. Carnusaur for removal (black virtue also, if you are mardu) couple quints, and the prototype cards for early plays that don't count when discovering
Yes enjoyed and weird. Always like your brawl decks, more likely to see different decks and the mono red isn't as boring as standards mono red.
Not a fan of timeless, maybe it will grow on me once things settle down more.
cgb i dont even play mtg anymore, I just watch your vids because you make good vids
On that enchantment game, remember cool kids, this is why patience is a win con
You are a real LP fan if you said “and got so far” at the same time as CGB \m/
@@gameschooldadMTG Guilty all the same 😉
I'm loving the videos CGB all of them all the time. I wouldn't mind seeing some more alchemy. Me and the other two guys that play that format would be happy.
I'd be willing to bet that worldwide there are at least 9 of us
But I might be going a little high there
@@bryantkapono420 world wide probably. But are all 9 of us open about it?
Would love to see your take on that enigma jewel esper planeswalker pile
Woooow congrats on building a deck!
Timeless, Historic Brawl are my top 2 fave formats in Arena.
My 5 year old thinks you're hilarious. He's singing "top the land" to the tune of Jingle Bells while building Legos. Nice video, thanks!
We need a second run of this with a 2.0 version
I so love your Emperor Palpatine voice, CGB :D
I support your theory. I loathe playing timeless, but watching it is quite entertaining.
About Timeless, for now I see your point. It’s really fun to watch, but is it going to be fun to play? Idk. I haven’t even started there yet, cause I want to give standard another chance with the new set coming up in less than 2 months. But I can see there already a very good variety of decks in timeless. Need to see how it settles after 1-2 months, I guess.
4th edition with revised and 3rd edition plus a bunch of small expansions. It's around the time I started when ice age came out it was a massive type 2 wasn't called standard yet.
I played Magic in the ‘90s and people was mostly focused on Extended back then. Mainly pros played Standard, for how expensive cards were and still are.
Seems like a slight identity crisis - does this deck want to lean into midrange with Schooner/Siren/Bat, or into control by moving away from creatures towards board wipes?
I am in the boat of "will never ever play timeless, but enjoy watching others play it."
I love the longer videos. No you're cool 😊
Congratulations!!!
All these one-ofs hurt my soul
Apparently: I am weird. Weird is fine. I do me.
Thank you. Those are multiple affirmations for less than 38 minutes invested.
WoW a tiny bit of original creativity for once!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah. I'm weird. I also enjoyed the video. Timeless is cool; definitely a more "watch it" than "play it" guy. I watch everything you put out. But I'm mainly here for the Brawl and Standard videos.
All praise Algo Rythm, our unsong overlord
Watching Timeless is fun. Too expensive with the mana base and alchemy cards for me to want to play it though. Personally I like the longer unedited footage, since it gives me time to think about the deck as I watch the games. Maybe more videos of the decks being palyed on streams?
I couldn't wait for Timeless. I rarely play standard because I want to play my cards and have fun while doing it. Timeless 9000% is the main I play next to Historic Brawl now
OUR OPINIONS STICK IN YOUR BRAIN? YOU THINK ABOUT THEM? Well, I think you are awesome!... No questions!
I think thats a very good theory. Watching timeless has been more fun for me than playing it
Dimir in the streets
Rakdos in the sheets
Good stuff man. What do you think about running a standard vid with enigma jewel? Hmm 🤔 fun planeswalker nonsense!
CGB a vampire confirmed.
"A lot of you have been asking about my skincare routine..."
Congrats ! All I want to see is CGB stomp mono-red decks.
Thanks for your comments at the end!
More Covert Go Brews!
"But CGB, why haven't you played Caves yet???"
Are you interested in a Caves list for BO1 that plays like aggro when you go against control or plays like control when you play against aggro?
I appreciate you telling us your recommendation on crafting the deck or not
also loved the unedited rackdos
Hi CJB, love your deck.
I enjoyed this, and I'm weird. And I like sharks, more shark content.
Thanks CGB!
4th realeases in 95, then ice age block, then mirage block in 96, then tempest block in 97, before that 4th was remove from type 2.
I've been playing since 96.
Dimir control and azorius control trade places every so often in the pioneer meta based on what combo deck is more popular at the time. Dimir is better against lotus field when azorius was better against mono green before the bans and currently is better against quintorius
Why make them CRY when you can make them SCRY!
Timeless is great, it's all I'll probably ever play again.
At 21:55 why does Schooner cost 4 mana?
Seeing you play against soldiers and then enchantments makes me think we're playing two separate divisions. I know it's not true but it feels like you're in the Great Lakes Arena League and I am in the Northeast Arena League. I saw these decks so much less, or so it feels.
that enchantment player quitting when they were so far ahead just highlights why I hate enchantment players so much...soft and weak, the second they aren't getting 50 free triggers a turn they fold
cgb, play whatever u like, I'll watch it anyway
More Timeless! I'm really enjoying it on other channels (especially Arne H, he's great).
Is that Blake in the thumbnail?
It’s Crokeyz
Didn't notice that at first. Did the scottsman dirty 😂 we need a fresh 1v1 for some sort of silly trophy until the next 1v1
ive got a hidetsugu breach deck that got me to mythic fairly fast if youd like the list
Standard right now feels like the old extended format
Title says control, might wanna fix that ;)
Wow!
We can all be weird together.
Hourra for your own build!
CGB, you are cool. But this is a weird deck. Four copies of Make Disappear and zero sweepers in this meta is pretty much insane.
the Linkin Park reference💀💀💀💀
But CGB, I have binders of black border 1st run magic cards. You have to be about my age....
Why does the first opponent's avatar look like he wants to sell you Skyrim again?
jeskai cycling in pioneer :)
38:20 Yep, that'd be me. I'm not playing that shit, but I've been enjoying watching videos!
28:30 I watch anything, to be honest. The unedited videos are a great look into the process of learning a deck, something I want for myself, while the edited videos are more youtube friendly. To be honest, the only thing I skip in your videos is the radio-like CoolStuffInc ad. I don't know why, but I can't stand it, so I skip it!
my mana tithe
I like the curated videos more - I have a small brain ;)
You played yourself vs monored by milling them instead of yourself
Cgb is 28 at the oldest.
weird is fine
Midrange is coo but draw go is better haha
Biggest standard in decades. Just played 5 games to complete the daily quest and 4 were monored. What a joke.
Id wanna see you go back and make videos breaking down your most memorable battles, pausing, voicing over, etc.
I play sweeper tribal decks or 5 color mill recursion.
😂❤
Show us your non creator deck list
If u play timeless, please redo dance of manse /doom foretold.. that's so annoying to play against.

Useless boat 😂😂😂
