@@Indomakio Yeah this is scary af, I learnt to play Magic when Settle the Wreckage was around and I'm scarred for life, the idea that a better version might be here or there in any blue deck is depressing
@@simonchi5372 sure, you just don't play it against them. But tokens, goblins, cats, elves, convoke and so on? Would work like a charm. Id main one copy and side one or two more in my blue Flash deck.
I loved Aurelia the Warleader. She was amazing back in the day in a few different decks like the top end threat in Boros weenies. By far may favorite use of Aurelia was an alternate build of Angel of Serenity/Unburial Rites Junk Reanimator for Standard that included red mostly for her and a another couple cards between the deck and sideboard. It won consistently in the mirror when Junk Reanimator was ruling the format for half the year due to the cards I already mentioned along with Thragtusk to stabilize/exploit and the amazing Grisly Salvage to find all the pieces super early. I think we may end up with a fairly similar format to 2013/2014, as there are a good deal of equivalent strategy/card options/decks. I think seeing strong reanimator, tokens, control, speed weenies, and enchantment focused decks are likely to continue to be what we see at the top of major tournaments when Foundations drops and immediately starts to influence the format. I am really excited for Foundations and the current Standard for the same reasons I loved 2013/2014, because those years were extremely good for standard with not only lots of variation and viability, but also a ton of decks that were fun and challenging to pilot. Many of the winning decks from the time required more thought than just turning stuff sideways as fast as possible or playing what is essentially Magic solitaire with little interaction. Hopefully the addition of Foundations will give Standard the shot in the arm it so desperately needs.
I can't wait to see flash platinum angel with leyline equipment and the swift boots control decks things. I can't wait to see the "against all odds" almost meme decks with omniscience nonsense. Hype.
Llanowar Elves is my number 1 pick too. I think Day of Judgment and Zombify might also make the list. I think these are pretty exciting to be considered the baseline standard. I hope that it means designers will have a bit more room to go wild on more interesting variants of those effects, or at least not feel compelled to recreate the same thing in each set.
Great idea to make a reprint list too. One thing: Am I misremembering things? Didn't Muldrotha see like close to no play? I also checked on mtgtop8 and searched for decks in that time period and a only found a couple of entries in standard. And since that time, standard changed a lot.
Muldrotha has a home in my Sultai Lhurgoyf style deck. Self mill with that card is damned dangerous. Find a way to pull lands out of your mill and you can get Muldrotha out a good bit early.
Playing since 4th edition and Ice Age. I traded my baseball cards for a shoe box full of cards from those sets. And i will say im real spiky alot of times. But i cant believe some of these cards are on here. Boros charm ,lan elves ,and others are obviously going to be played. Noobs need to git gud.
Other elves would include something like an elf planeswalker, I suppose. No difference, they're supposed to be the same. MTG is full of small grammatical errors & inconsistencies. They still use s's (e.g. brass's) except sometimes they correctly use s'.

15 cards in the top 10 video. Please never change Dev.
16* 😂 the 2 elves shared a spot
💯
18 with the Hosers
Should be a top 25 that way we all happy,this set his huge.
Way more than 18 with all the cards he mentioned after #1 😂
I aint even watched it yet. Here's a few bucks thank you for your vids!
That's only a couple ,a few is 3 to 5 😅
🙌
Thanks for being you and making content that I enjoy watching throughout my day.
Aetherize triggers some serious Settle the Wreckage PTSD
It's arguably better because it doesn't ramp your opponent and removes tokens for free
@@Indomakio Yeah this is scary af, I learnt to play Magic when Settle the Wreckage was around and I'm scarred for life, the idea that a better version might be here or there in any blue deck is depressing
@@Indomakio However might be tricky against midrange decks where most creatures gets their value from etbs.

It's hitting me in the nostalgia button for sure.
It's wild how much more powerful Llanowar Elves are than last time they were in Standard.

Are these top 10 re-prints or sleepers or top 10 re-print sleepers? The title and the thumb nail conflict unless it's both
Thanks!
Is this video mistitled?? This says sleepers but it’s the reprint vid
Sure seems like it. Good video either way.
@@robertsunderman9534it is indeed! 😊
Thumbnail says reprints, so seems like it is.
Looking forward to pre-release this weekend.
The flash decks possible stuff and the weird ramp plus flash stuff that might make green interesting seems very plausible. Way to go llanaowar elf.
Great idea to make a reprint list too.

imperials love their damn lists
I pulled an etali dino during the pre release i was super excited but it didnt have haste and a lot of my opponents could block and answer it
Love you, Dev!
I will be playing authority in maindeck with high noon and some nice flood maws :)
Muldrotha has a home in my Sultai Lhurgoyf style deck. Self mill with that card is damned dangerous. Find a way to pull lands out of your mill and you can get Muldrotha out a good bit early.
Loving the Mtg Foundations reprints, especially the top 3! 🙌🎴
lol Boros Charm "wh-what? why you doin that?"
For me there is Think twice ! Love that card
I’m a simple man of culture. We get access to both Ramos, Dragon Engine and Progenitus at the same time. I think that’s worth mentioning.
I'm so excited to pop off with llanowar elves. Arboreal Grazer would have been cool too
Also Paradise Druid
There's a reason I've always kept eight copies of llanowar elves
What's the cool looking box on the couch next to Dev?
I wish we had gotten Guttural Response in this set along with the color hosers
Immesturm predator I'd back. DAMMMN, I missed him
anim pakal and her angry garden gnomes are gonna destroy the HOA with impact tremors
what happens if you have aurelia and gossip's talent?
So...When do we get the top sleeper video?
You my spirit animal dev
I play green and black and Malestrom pulse and assassin's trophy are my top removal
What? You can play Muldrotha in standard??
Muldrotha coming back with all the delirium payoffs is gross.
Change the equation is better than flashfreeze

I'm a simple man, I try to put tyrranax rex in every deck of mine....
6:30 What’s the difference between “other elves” and “other elf creatures”?
Other elves would include something like an elf planeswalker, I suppose.
No difference, they're supposed to be the same. MTG is full of small grammatical errors & inconsistencies. They still use s's (e.g. brass's) except sometimes they correctly use s'.
Standard is going to be fun!
I love listening to your videos while trimming marijuana ❤ makes it go by faster :)
You guys remember Armored Scrapgorger?
