Hey man, loved that you did historic. Felt ALMOST like I was watching modern (caps for italics). I've been thinking of how historic could be more interesting/prominent in Arena, I really hope it eventually is. There could be some really neat gameplay with historic, especially in competetive and pro gameplay.
Historic means you have wider scope for creativity in deck building, which lets Magic and CGB shine; Magic through it's many powerful permeatations and CGB through his study, analysis and application of them.
well not quite infinite but lots of turns unless they had proliferate in the deck, or an infinite way to return saheeli, sublime artificer to the hand and recast.
That timestream control deck was so nostalgic for me; i tried something like that when the game first came out of beta and i used all my mythics for a playset of timestream. nice.
good times throwback :-) i played the TimeStream Navigator with Helm of the Host Worked out good (sometimes) . the sahelli combo didn't work endless :-)
Tech for simic flash, get cavalcade'd. Tech against cavalcade, get simic flash'd. When that's not happening you're getting Golos'd. Historic is a good place to be.
I hope they will add some older sets for this format, but seems unlikely since wizards seem to not even want people to know that they can play historic already
How dare you make Magic look enjoyable and unpredictable ?! Those were some really great games, very fun to watch, and I really digged the whole mono-black week, hope the numbers are good and you'll go through with all five challenges. Btw, do you plan on doing something with Brawl when it gets implemented ? I think I can remember Merchant saying he'd do some kind of deckbuilding guide for it, will you also take a look at it or are you uninterested in the format ? Cheers !
Careful, CGB, historic is the gateway drug to all sorts of nasty. Next thing you know - you'll suddenly find yourself playing vintage cube drafts one day.
@@kacperz3026 exile and outside of the game are two different things as the wording of karns ability demonstrates, but you are correct in that karn can fetch artifacts that were exiled this way. It even neutralizes the cast prevention of ixalans binding.
The exact text of the ability is "You may choose an artifact card you own from outside the game or in exile, reveal that card, and put it into your hand." So yes, you can grab cards from exile with it.
Really miss Treasure Map and Vraska's Contempt as well as those check lands. Deck is sick man. I really hope WoTC do not disregard Histroric. It has a lot of potential, both for them and the players. Expansions before Ixalan can be added every 3 months, the same way they do in Standard. Like when Thero's comes out, they could then release Hour of Devastation on Historic etc. It may reduce the audience of Standard by a bit, but I think the ending player-base will be pretty much higher in the long run making both leagues competitive.
I miss understood your historic comment at the end of the last video so hard. Completely forgot about the new format's name and thought you were going to go for the "artifact or legendary" historic ...
Hey CGB. Got to play against you on Arena last night but you just quit on me like turn 5. To be fair I was playing Golos/Field. You resolved a Mesmerizing Benthid then said goodnight. Anyway, Cromatic Black was the deck I played most at FNM. I loved this deck.
One of the most interesting matches to watch on any channel in a while. Thank you.

That last UW deck was a thing of beauty
I didn't even know that Historic is already available to play!
Just gotta make a historic deck and hit play, it autoqueues against other historic players, also works with pauper and singleton
Of course you don't, WotC is trying to bury the format before it ever gets off the ground.
@@elperaman227 umm i just qued up with my pauper deck and i'm playing against non-pauper decks... :(
indeed , same here :)
Historic is just any deck that has at least one "old" card in it isnt it? How have you guys not played a game with one?
At last! Someone doing historic!! Hoorah
Historic is actually a blast, I hope they do some events for it or something
Woah wait what you play magic too? And watch CGB?
@@elchingon12346 yeah bro I even have vids of me playing magic on my second channel jmcasual
@@jmcrofts subbed!
wow didnt expect you played magic
That was a LOT of fun to watch!
Gotta give that a try.
This. Is. Incredible. Awesome build CGB! Cant wait to see what you start doing in Historic. Kicking it off right!😎
Being able to tutor up anything you want is a blast. And playing mastermind off a golos is crazy 😂
Historic means you have wider scope for creativity in deck building, which lets Magic and CGB shine; Magic through it's many powerful permeatations and CGB through his study, analysis and application of them.
Very cool to see the channel change it up for some historic. Great matches!
It was really cool to see the surprise on your face a couple times there. Brings back memories of playing magic before netdecking was a thing.
It's nice to see so many different decks people try to play. Really refreshing compared to the usual decks in Standard.
I am really enjoying these mono deck weeks. thanks And that last game where it looked like the opponent had infinite turns was a nice combo.
well not quite infinite but lots of turns unless they had proliferate in the deck, or an infinite way to return saheeli, sublime artificer to the hand and recast.
Absolutly great gameplay! If magic only could always be this way.
very nice brew , and ty for pointing out that we can play historic :) Stoked for your upcoming mono blue series ;)
that time stream deck actually looked pretty boss
Final opponent's deck was gas. I'm really digging the format so far! (my lack of wildcards glares at it awkwardly)
That timestream control deck was so nostalgic for me; i tried something like that when the game first came out of beta and i used all my mythics for a playset of timestream. nice.
Nice philosophical drift there at the end. I like it 😉
My favorite of your videos. Please keep doing this. :)
Thanks for doing historic. Most people seem to forget about it
I would love to see your take on Chulane in standard or historic!
good times throwback :-)
i played the TimeStream Navigator with Helm of the Host
Worked out good (sometimes) . the sahelli combo didn't work endless :-)
Tech for simic flash, get cavalcade'd. Tech against cavalcade, get simic flash'd. When that's not happening you're getting Golos'd.
Historic is a good place to be.

Yes! My favorite CGB deck is back!!
How dare you make Magic look enjoyable and unpredictable ?!

Yeah, I may brawl
Sweet !
Love the video, pumped for mono blue week. I love watching CGB mill
Careful, CGB, historic is the gateway drug to all sorts of nasty. Next thing you know - you'll suddenly find yourself playing vintage cube drafts one day.
I subconsciously wrote off historic as a format. This is really cool!
Husbringer doesn't affect the Krasis, you draw the cards and get the life when it's cast, not when it enters the battlefield.
How can i get the swamp card design ( new player)
I played historic today as well. Played against mono red.. What do I do wrong??
Oh wow.... Historic actually looks super fun.
Man thx a lot for that Video - in fact i didnt know that historic can be played already^^
This looks like a fun deck! Please do one in this format for White.
I still don't know how you get the full art lands, by adding them to the deck with the cards code?
I won them in an event
Cant u pick with Karn cards exiled with ixalan's binding or prison realm?
They are exiled so they are outside the game
@@kacperz3026 exile and outside of the game are two different things as the wording of karns ability demonstrates, but you are correct in that karn can fetch artifacts that were exiled this way. It even neutralizes the cast prevention of ixalans binding.
@@kacperz3026 Nope. Exile is a zone of the game. Cards in exile are very much inside the game.
The exact text of the ability is "You may choose an artifact card you own from outside the game or in exile, reveal that card, and put it into your hand."
So yes, you can grab cards from exile with it.

Great vid CGB!
Well I know what I'm playing when the eventual historic events launch next month.
how is Treasure Map legal?
This deck is sick!!
wow historic is actually here, who knew
I like it, till they make the history ranking we won't see much of this, but I am excited
Please give us more Historic Games CGB
I miss understood your historic comment at the end of the last video so hard. Completely forgot about the new format's name and thought you were going to go for the "artifact or legendary" historic ...
Love the channel, but don't agree that this should count for your historic mono black.
mass manipulation in sideboard. trust me doc
Hey CGB. Got to play against you on Arena last night but you just quit on me like turn 5. To be fair I was playing Golos/Field. You resolved a Mesmerizing Benthid then said goodnight.
Anyway, Cromatic Black was the deck I played most at FNM. I loved this deck.
A little more historic in your vids might be cool. Maybe not every day, but it's a good break from the current meta.
GOLOS :)
Great deck other than its not standard
First! Go black!
