Kegs are so you can hit artifact lands, which is relevant in a surprising number of matches. Dystopia is also for Beans decks, since it reverses Leylines and clears away Beans, Carpet, and Uro. Happy you liked the deck!
I don’t think I ever watched legacy before I found you and I’m starting to love it. I really appreciate how you often add a funny little personal bit before the video gets going. Thank you for just being you. Hope you enjoy it and keep going.
Phil is great! He's what got me into and keeps me interested in Legacy. HIGHLY recommend the Eternal Glory podcast he's on, as his co-hosts, The Epic Storm and Boshnroll.
Your content has gotten a lot better and I enjoy listening in the morning either as a semi-background thing or paying close attention (usually given my interest in the deck and my own personal busy life). Keep up the good work and good luck in 2024. Personally likes: your voice isn't too loud and you don't do a lot of shouting, cursing, background music, sound bites, and other bull! Just pure magic!
I don't remember exactly when I subscribed, but it was relatively recent considering I've been watching you for a while. I am a dnt player at heart which is what brought me here forever ago, but I continue to watch because you are real chill. Also your predictions of the worst case scenario that always come true are hilarious.
thanks dude, really love to watch your content on a daily basis. either it gets me through my pause, helps me to calm down after work or helps me fall asleep, it's always a treasure to watch you. its highly entertaining as well as educational af. thank you, for real.
Getting some bits of life advice with great gameplay is what I come here for. I loved the one video with no gameplay, just bits of knowledge about preparing in mtg paralleled to setting goals in life. Fantastic content, building a positive community and making a life out of showcasing the game you love must be really cool, I admire Phill and I'm happy to see the amount of positive interaction from the community, it counts more than just having a larger number of subscribers.
My gut reaction when seeing Stalactite Stalker was that it's effectively a black Delver/DRC adjacent threat. Honestly kind of shocked it's not seeing more Legacy play.
Exactly, It also seems to have fewer deckbuilding restrictions. 11 lands that enable it by default as well as Grief + Troll which are already very powerful on their own.
I've been watching your content for over a year now. It really helps me relax after a long days work. I don't play legacy myself, but I've found that your knowledgable gameplay has helped me become a better Magic player. Thanks for the terrific content, and I hope your channel will grow even more in 2024!
I don't usually play a ton of magic, life has been busy, but when I do I feel like a play so much better due to all the fundamentals I've learned from Phil, either here on on Eternal Glory. My limited play has gotten better, and I've been crushing in Timeless on Arena lately.
Hey Phil, while we're being sentimental, I started playing Magic sometime in 1998. Long long time ago. I don't really play anymore and largely fell out of love with the game but there's that little bit of nostalgia I will probably always carry with me. I found your channel this year and I've enjoyed every video. While I don't enjoy playing the game as much, I always enjoy watching you play it, listening to you talk about it, and keeping that little bit of nostalgic love alive. Cheers, Phil. Here's to more cool deck videos in 2024. 💜
I felt like you almost teared up at 7:14. I almost did ! I’m so glad everything’s working out and balanced now. Your health and stress levels are important also. You don’t want magic to become something you hate doing. Content has been gold and love the outside the box ideas. Those are the fun videos (although some cringey, cough cough rogues) 😂
I have watched probably 95% of your videos this year, always have it on the background while I work every day I’m in the office. Looking forward to what you have coming in 2024!
I've mostly drifted away from mtg, but I still watch your content every day. Your game play commentary is fantastic and I love hearing you think through your lines. Keep it up
I love watching your videos. You're so knowledgeable on playmaking. I strive to be like you, not just in paper magic, but i also wanna make videos like you do! It was super awesome meeting you at scgcon this year, and i look forward to next years videos! Your "be the best magic player" video, really inspired me to be more than just a tournament grinder. Thank you for all your videos Phil!
Yes, the quality has improved since I first watched you, and you are my no. 2 favorite streamer :-) (I watch between 10-15 streamers on occasions) Thank you for your work and for having fun with magic. I would like to ask for a little more competitive decks. I a little too often skip/fast forward through the jank. At first I enjoyed it, but it becomes kind of the same when you have watched magic on youtube for 3 years, and would like to see competitive decks / ideas for your own play. Happy new year :)
So I don't often comment but I've been enjoying your channel for a while now so here's a bit of engagement 😄 Just wanted to say that I appreciate your legacy content and you've taught me a lot about the format that I've always wanted to get into. I rarely get to play at all and seldom do I meet another legacy player so I'm always glad to see another of your videos. I can't believe I wasn't subbed so here's one more to help your end of year stats. I do alot of driving so having you be part of my lifes bgm while I cruise has been fun. I wish I were in a financial situation to be able to give several RUclipsrs, yourself included, some patreon thanks but I'm not so lucky at the moment, sorry. Looking forward to seeing how you grow 😊
Your content is the reason I still am interested in magic after getting burnt out on commander. Glad to hear you have time and sleep at the end of all this, can't wait to see what 2024 brings.
Congrats on the channel success! Very well deserved. The cozy vibe your going for really comes through in the videos without sacrificing gameplay or commentary.
Thank you Phil for being here for so long. I’m so happy I found this channel and this has been my routine after school telling me that everything will be okay with your banter and commentsry. thank you
Hey man, i started watching your channel a couple of weeks back and you make get more involved in legacy a format that i have never watch or like that much, so thank you for giving me a new way to enjoy magic and i hope you have a nice end of the year
Been watching your videos for a long while now, and this was the video where I realized I wasn't actually subscribed. That has been rectified. I wish I could sell you on my deck ideas for OG Kaldra and breaking Filligree Sage.
started getting back into mtg early last year and found you and probably watch almost every video. you are super easy to listen to and i usually put it on to relax at the end of the day. i have never played legacy but i love watching you play it. happy new year!
Between you and bosh N roll it's how I get my legacy fix these days. I sold out years ago and can't play anymore. But your channel let's me experience it still.
Started watching your videos this year and they're really interesting. I will never play legacy and I didn't know or care anything about it before watching your channel. Thank you for the amazing content.
Love the videos! Don’t play legacy yet but your videos make me wanna get into it! You’re one of the most knowledgeable magic players I’ve seen and helps me be a better player!
I love this RUclips channel. You make videos I’m always hyped to see, just a really big fan! Love the content, gameplay, meta strategy stuff and your personality and sense of humour. You seem like a great guy… Congrats on your success
Great game, and awesome content you give us often! You're one of the top 3 legacy streamers watched on my local legacy community in Spain, and we all agree that your content has improved quite a lot. Keep up the good job! 🤘🏻
I watched this while prepping veggies to make some food for friends, cheers for always having a video when I need one p.s. I was so keen to see this card and I'm so glad it went off
For context, the watchtime of 1.1m hours is a total of 125 and a half years. That is an amazing amount and i loved all of those hours that were mine over the past year
Here's to another year of Magic with you, Phil! You mentioned at the end of round 1 that it would be a good game for plotting out a decision tree, is that something you've ever actually done? It sounds super interesting to hear you deep dive into a game and review the winning lines.
Before I watch the video, you mention that descended works from the stack as well, this means if I cast a permanent and it gets countered descended actually works? This deck looks fun!
Wasteland into growing 3 stalkers is such BM, card is surprisingly good. It almost came up in one game of the last match, but you could’ve swinged for damage and then shrink the murktide with stalker’s ability to live, but you still didn’t had enough damage to kill on the crackback iirc. Still, card is funky.
Hey I just watched the sentimental part of this video. I have to say, I got to meet you at the gathering this year, (you signed my Yorion, mother of times and Thalia playmat if you remember me) Keep up the good work, I really enjoy your content and it's given me a new appreciation for legacy as a format. Also as a trans person, the charity drive is super important to me
From this league, it seems to "flip" more reliably than Delver, and has attached removal *sometimes*, but menace not being flying was relevant. It seems comparable to Delver, but probably not as good as DRC.
25:50 if OP had a beseech in board they could have 2x beseech into Warrens and gotten an extra 6-8 goblins and that would have probably been enough to get ya? Also you didn't make a mistake at 59:03 you had to play land for turn to play the ponder.
The way he mentioned It working out because he can grow all 3 with wasteland instead of 2 made of seem it was about the land play but that makes sense too@@grantwu407
You doing okay Phil? Your voice seems a bit scuffed, or you just wake up and jam a league? My voice always sounds deeper right when I wake up and my vocal chords are most relaxed.
Kegs are so you can hit artifact lands, which is relevant in a surprising number of matches. Dystopia is also for Beans decks, since it reverses Leylines and clears away Beans, Carpet, and Uro. Happy you liked the deck!
Dystopia is so fucking savage I had to take it out of my momo black commander deck. It just absolutely crushes people for how little of cost it has.
I don’t think I ever watched legacy before I found you and I’m starting to love it.
I really appreciate how you often add a funny little personal bit before the video gets going.
Thank you for just being you. Hope you enjoy it and keep going.
Both ThrabenU and BoshnRoll are my legacy mtgo goto

Your videos are my favorite because of how clearly you speak, you do not over emote, and you swear.
I felt like you almost teared up at 7:14. I almost did ! I’m so glad everything’s working out and balanced now. Your health and stress levels are important also.

Saw you tweet about Stalker being great and grabbed a set. TY!
I've mostly drifted away from mtg, but I still watch your content every day. Your game play commentary is fantastic and I love hearing you think through your lines. Keep it up

So happy to gear about you getting that balance. Your content and gameplay is wonderful and engaging and you deserve all the success.

Great to hear you're happy with work-life balance! It's hard, especially with teaching.
Saw stalactite stalker, I’m finally vindicated for thinking it had legacy power level!
Congrats on your channel growth this year, you’ve earned it, and you deserve it all and more!!
Great to have met you this year. Keep Killin it!
Congrats on the year end results! Glad to hear it's going so positively
You are both my lunch videos at work and my fall asleep videos every day! Keep up the great work!
Great game, and awesome content you give us often! You're one of the top 3 legacy streamers watched on my local legacy community in Spain, and we all agree that your content has improved quite a lot.

Great to have met you this yeae. Keep Killin it!
your commentary has definitely grown a lot this pass year and congrats on the watch time that’s insane!

You mentioned at the end of round 1 that it would be a good game for plotting out a decision tree, is that something you've ever actually done? It sounds super interesting to hear you deep dive into a game and review the winning lines.
Yup, but probably not on camera.
I love watching and I love listening, so pleasant to have you work your magic for us ❤
Love you man, keep up the good work ❤! For sure more people should subscribe!
We love you phil! Cheers to a year of awesome content
Before I watch the video, you mention that descended works from the stack as well, this means if I cast a permanent and it gets countered descended actually works? This deck looks fun!
You have really helped me get interested in legacy. Thank you and keep up the great work
Very happy for you man! Work / Life balance is so, SO important. Keep up the good work

I mainly got into legacy because of your videos so thank you for the content you make.
Love the channel! best of luck next year :)
Ok... so I'm not alone in falling asleep to your or boshnrolls videos... thats cool.
I have loved discovering your content this year. Thanks for doing it.
you're my favorite magic creator! so cool to see your channel grow
Great growth man well deserved! Been watching for ages and love the work.
🎉🎉🎉 your defo one of my comfort RUclipsrs. Don’t play magic anymore but I still watch all your vids. Always turn them on when I’m high as fuck 😅
Amazing as always Phil! Happy holidays!
I bought a playset of this guy on the off chance that someone would make it pop off. It just seems too weird to not be good.
One creative to another, I appreciate what you do!
Phil, you’re a lovely guy and you should be so proud of the work you’ve done. I’m so happy to hear that you’ve found some equilibrium
You edge out Bosh as my favorite Legacy content provider. Keep it up!
Hey I just watched the sentimental part of this video. I have to say, I got to meet you at the gathering this year, (you signed my Yorion, mother of times and Thalia playmat if you remember me)
Keep up the good work, I really enjoy your content and it's given me a new appreciation for legacy as a format. Also as a trans person, the charity drive is super important to me
I do, and Happy New Year!
Congrats on a good year Phil!
Earlyposting
Happy new years!
:) hope everything you need comes your way
Thank you for all you did with trans lifeline!
Its so nice to see a beautiful community come together and help such an important cause!
Don’t play legacy but your channel is one of my favorite magic channel❤
Deck is sick!
you should try this with wail of the forgotten
Stalkers are exactly the type of card I loved when I first started.
Your channel rules Phil. keep up the good work!
Legacy really needs a Force of Stifling effect.
Stalactite Stalker seemed fine, but I'm unsure how much better than Delver it was, if at all.
From this league, it seems to "flip" more reliably than Delver, and has attached removal *sometimes*, but menace not being flying was relevant. It seems comparable to Delver, but probably not as good as DRC.
Great league!
Here's to 2024!! Keep it up!! :D
If I'd would have a ThrabenU-new-years-wish it would be to see some kind of of legacy in paper.
I like this card in a Agatha’s Caldron Golgari setup
I love stalker ! I’m glad It found a home ! Well semi home lol. He’s like renting a room for a while. He’s being a stalker.
phil and his blankie
25:50 if OP had a beseech in board they could have 2x beseech into Warrens and gotten an extra 6-8 goblins and that would have probably been enough to get ya? Also you didn't make a mistake at 59:03 you had to play land for turn to play the ponder.
I think the mistake was in the ponder ordering, he could've drawn stalker instead of wasteland.
Does play into Daze though so it's not like, 100% a mistake
The way he mentioned It working out because he can grow all 3 with wasteland instead of 2 made of seem it was about the land play but that makes sense too@@grantwu407
back in my day the strongest 1 drop was a Normal 2/1 with more text then the bible (I’m a new player)
great gameplay and videos
Who would have guessed Dimir Menace has Menace cards
I was thinking about playing it in vial goblins with bombardiers. It seems like it would be good
Dystopia and Gloom are my favorite hate cards
Let's make a deck where all the creatures have Menace. That's like a free Goblin War Drums!!
Rakdos Knights!! scryfall search: o:menace f:l t:knight cmc
didn't know i wasn't subscribed, sorry mate! fixed it. more graveyard shenanigans?
Who up stalkin’ they stalactite?
Obligatory algorithmic contribution
Get sentimental my man, hope everything goes well for you internet stranger.
I was sure I was subscribed to you but noticed that I wasn't for some reason.
How you feelin' my guy?
Hold up, this deck plays a lot of Rogues 😮
Rogue tribal when
Achievement Unlocked: Work-Life Balance *^.^*
41:53 that was what now?
You doing okay Phil? Your voice seems a bit scuffed, or you just wake up and jam a league? My voice always sounds deeper right when I wake up and my vocal chords are most relaxed.
Descent = revolt? 🤔
Almost! I think the descend stuff only applies on your turn though, at least on the cards I've seen.
Lol, i wasn't subscribed yet, no Idea why...
Ok bowmasters. I'm getting tired of you
