I almost feel like one or two of those Synthesizers or Thought Monitors should've been swapped with Kappa Cannoneers. There were quite a few situations where Cannoneer could have pushed through damage past your opponents blockers where the construct tokens just sat there staring menacingly at them.
@ThrabenU The idea behind using cards like Ottowara over basic lands is "in one game out of ten it might make a difference to have a bounce available, but usually this is a land." Given how there's SO MUCH White Orchid Phantom/Nicfit/Ghost Quarters running around, isn't the tipping point reached, where it is better in most games to be able to search up a basic instead?
I mean you’d probably be mostly running island over Otawara for, like, wasteland/blood moon, instead of the possibility of fetching another land against random fringe archetypes? (though I guess the other lands also all eat shit against wasteland)
Is the floor for Synthesizer low? Yes. Can my Pioneer deck add 64 power across 6 creatures on turn 4? Yes. (turn 3 play Synth, turn 4 play Brass Knuckles, Metalwork Colossus, Metalwork Colossus) The scoop usually comes right about when I equip the Brass Knuckles for double strike. It is also pretty consistent with blue cantrips, blue counter spells and graveyard recursion with Colossus and Fabrication Foundry.
Hey Phil, let me tell you, ive been playing Standard format heavily for about a year now and in that format Synthsizer is just Disgusting. I hate it like poison😂. If you olay any kind of fair deck which 90% of standard is, that card just crushes fair decks. Ive even got so salty as to run four stone brains and rite of oblivions and just went simulacrum hunting! 😂 But anyway in Legacy you make a deck with a synth and a jellyfish look so fun to play!
@@andrewwang7699 haha everything eats shit to Boros convoke basically. But Boros convoke numbers are going way down, and some of the new synth decks especially in jeskai are playing temp lockdown and high noon main board for the mono red / Boros aggro strategies now. The last dozen or so matchups I've witnessed with jeskai synth vs Boros it wasn't even close. It's probably one of the reasons I'm running into more synth decks than I am Boros right now on arena and modo.
Phil, you always look so cozy with your blanket and it's adorable.
28:55 Swiftfoot boots :D
I was extremely confusion.
@@Magnivore519 he probably meant shadow spear
Jelly? I am positively envious! Funny concept for a deck, let's see how it fares

*mechanically looking
I love seeing Esperzoa in legacy after it has been a bomb in my peasant cube for a while now
You had me at Refurbished Familiar.
21:30 did you not play the shadowspear so to pump a potential automaton
0 days since Phil didnt play 4 copies of vexing bauble in his 75..
Oh, I'm jelly.

You let tamiyo attack round 1 game 2 at about 16 minutes, when u could block with hullbreacher to kill her
Does Hullbreacher fly?
@@ThrabenUniversity oh i see. Well with all his flashy rope movement on the ship, i think he should!
It seems wild to me how many artifact hate cards you ran into. I have a hard time believing the meta warrants that much hate.
Awww yeah it's time
Ive tinkered with Glaze Fiend as well. Its an oops i win if they dont have a flyer.
frogmyr and sojourner's companion dodges some of the hate cards
Uploaded 7 seconds ago! Let’s goooooo!!!!!!!
Splash red for experimental synthesizer to essentially draw 2 extra cards each turn which could also just be a body if needed?
A 1 mana draw a card with downside, with the option to pay 3 Mana for a 3/2 is leagues away from legacy power level.
I feel like if we are playing the familiars we should lean a bit more into discard with either grief or hymn maybe?
Ive been wondering about ob nixilis the adversary in a bowmaster echoes deck
So when merfolk?

doesn’t synthesizer just eat shit against like, RW convoke?

@@darken8649 ah, fair enough! Sounds like somewhat of a breath of fresh air
Playing artifact combo in eternal formats looks miserable. Rolling the dice that opponents decided it was ok to lose to this deck today.
Hop on r6 lil bro
Why diddint you play the shadowspear before monitor, it was mana neutral 🤡
Rng manipulation for a better draw ;)
