    Reid's enthusiasm for this archetype is infectious. I love watching Reid play a BGx deck! The editing was a little aggressive.

  • @Khazuki_
    @Khazuki_ 6 лет назад +82

    The editing needs to be done a little better next time. Don't skip the draw step, don't skip any time someone puts something on the stack, makes an attack, takes any kind of action. Just cut out long pauses when one of the players is thinking.

    The edits are a bit too abrupt, it's rather jarring. I appreciate what they are going for I just think they need a little more practice.

    • @ishamyyl
      @ishamyyl 6 лет назад +4

      Agree. Match 2 Game 1, all of a sudden the game was over. Even if Reid didn't say anything during that time, the winning moves should still be shown.

  • @lucasbischofberger957
    @lucasbischofberger957 6 лет назад +118

    i appreciate editing to quicken the content a bit, but i think this was a bit much. There were times when we missed the last few plays to end the game. notably around the 23 min mark.

  • @Breadnaught
    @Breadnaught 6 лет назад +56

    I think I prefer these videos without the time skips, it's a nice thought but I'd rather have the full commentary and play by play. Especially since it's Reid.
    Edit: Some of these cuts are especially jarring, at 23:26 the video skips the opponents first turn, that just seems important enough to leave in.

      @jakeskate29 6 лет назад

      Yeah just hit the 23:26 cut - got a split second to figure out that Reid burnt out his opponent before it flicked to the sideboard screen. That cut was really bad.

    Parts of the editing was nice, others jarring. There were instances where it was fluid, but other points where not. At around the 8 minute mark there's magically a dark confidant in play and the Liliana activation on the stack--what?!
    Great work from Reid though as always.

  • @feliperodrigues5437
    @feliperodrigues5437 6 лет назад +34

    Not a fan of this editing, I don't mind cutting long pauses where no one does or says anything, but skipping full turns or attacks, not showing spells being cast and lands being played is not acceptable. I'm a fan of not having the dumb watermark though, that was a welcome change.

  • @zrwhiskey
    @zrwhiskey 6 лет назад +61

    A+ for effort on the editing, I know it takes a lot of work and it demonstrates you give a shit about what you're putting out.
    However you need a bit more narrating to make up for the time skips, otherwise it is jarring or unclear. Watch the way Saffron Olive edits. He says "opponent passes" and "pass the turn" etc and jump cuts around it. The game is clear because he always says what happened if he didn't show it.

    • @moltenlava6684
      @moltenlava6684 6 лет назад +1

      Zachary Weyandt i doubt it was reid’s decision to edit, nor did he edit it, hence that issue. otherwise i agree

  • @jakeskate29
    @jakeskate29 6 лет назад

    Great to watch Reid play again - always learn something from him. As everyone else in the comments section has said the cuts were quite bad please make less cuts and make them more subtle in the future. It takes you time to try and figure out what just happened and this means that you aren't really listening to what Reid is saying about the current situation. I have watched many RUclips videos that are 2, 3 or even 7 hours long. I would rather a longer video that I can break up if I don't have the time but when I do I can watch the whole thing without distracting cuts.

    • @jakeskate29
      @jakeskate29 6 лет назад

      Another thing I would like to note is that I like to pause the video and think through what I would do and compare this to Reid's lines afterwards. Some of the cuts prevents me doing this by skipping the parts of the opponents turns so I can no longer consider how I would respond.

  • @stephenlofton5403
    @stephenlofton5403 6 лет назад +1

    This is like two-for-one porn. Also that double Bob draw at 42:50 was nuts. Your mastery of this archetype is really on show here. Awesome stuff makes me want to get back into the deck. I really do think BBE alongside bolt with wind up eclipsing the Mind Sculptor himself.

  • @zacharydaniel9089
    @zacharydaniel9089 6 лет назад +9

    I notice you decided to include a basic mountain this time. Good on ya, Reid.

    • @jakeskate29
      @jakeskate29 6 лет назад

      You can tell this happened after the Team Modern Super League, where he got blown out for not having one. His opponent's field of ruins cut off his red mana several times and he had lightning bolt, k-command and bloodbraid one of those times. Having the single mountain would have totally avoided that issue.

      Also for whoever is cutting the video, it's way too much. The discontinuity is completely disorienting throughout. Often times it's difficult to keep up with simple interactions because of the jarring nature of the cuts. Allow for more continuity please. Otherwise great vid

    @hamburglerhelper326 6 лет назад

    I like the edits, reading the comments the majority dislike them, which is fair, they are abrupt and sometimes youre like, wait wtf, was that lag.. but i find when i watch these videos i skip a ton, like 5-10 seconds ahead, when i know hes just gonna play land pass, or dude pass, so for me it saves me from clicking every 50 seconds. Anyways WELL PLAYED Reid, you always make the most profitable play every time. Gl at the mocs

  • @toubeelo1979
    @toubeelo1979 6 лет назад +13

    The editing kind of ruins the video because the one playing is Reid, and Reid explains all his choices, even if it's just searching for a land to put into play. The logic behind behind Reid's thought process is mainly the reason why people watch videos of him.

    • @jakeskate29
      @jakeskate29 6 лет назад

      Yes totally agree - Reid and LSV probably are the two best streamers to watch if you want to learn. The way they go in to detail of all the different lines they could take and all the cards that they consider playing around is great and as you said the time they put into thinking about land drops and tapping mana.

  • @a.foobix
    @a.foobix 6 лет назад

    I quite like the chopped up editing, but could do with some more info with the cuts (leaving in draws, sequences of plays, etc.) but the efforts are really appreciated. I love Reid's vids, but having the action cut together makes a far more enjoyable video.

  • @gerd1022

    @Mentir42 6 лет назад

    Editing was good, skipping pauses is the way to go. Some skips where to large, so it was not quite clear what happened, aside from that flawless video, happy to see the elf back in modern

  • @Ziddletwix
    @Ziddletwix 6 лет назад

    People are right to complain about the timeskips, but I just want to point out that the idea is awesome in theory. I think the editor just needs some more practice, but I think with this time it'll really improve the content.
    I enjoy how the first game gets going right away with BBE itself just overrunning a control opponent. Beautiful. That being said, it does highlight why I'm a bit confused by the BBE unban. Not because of power level, BBE is not out of line with other powerful strategies in the format. But it's a buff to an archetype that was doing fine (there have been many high placing Abzan decks, similar to Jund), in *particular* against a strategy that was arguably more in need of help in the format, which is reactive control strategies. Like, BBE isn't honestly particularly good against the powerful linear strategies like Tron, Storm, or Burn, which run the format. I'm not too sure what the point of unbanning BBE was, when it hurts some decks that need help, and does little to the top decks.
    Which is actually why I kinda understand the Jace unban a little more, even if it's by *far* the more dangerous one (and I wasn't a fan of either). At least Jace has the chance to boost archetypes which could use some help. I just can't support the unban because I don't like power in Modern being so concentrated in one card. The current midrange grindy matchups are fascinating because there is no trump card. Jeski control relies on mediocre finishers like Raise the Wastes, and no one card breaks the stalemate (including other grindy strategies, like the valuetown CC decks, some of the Bedlam reveler decks, etc). I'm just concerned that even if Jace based archetypes aren't too strong, he's going to become too much of a trump card in those matchups, where all that matters is landing your jace.

    @175gOFdisc 6 лет назад

    You can follow what's going on if you pay attention but if you're newer or looked away for a second you may miss an interaction and have to back up, which increases the relative time of your video to something akin to it's lightly edited counterpart.

  • @BronzeCroissant
    @BronzeCroissant 6 лет назад +4

    I love that you guys are trying to edit. However, if this is the best you can do please never do it again. End of game 1 match 2 skipped from end step to end of game in a single frame. I would like to see the spells be cast and resolved. Even though it's clear what happens it is not entertaining to watch, which is at least half the reason I'm here. That being said, it's also not interesting to watch opponents tanking and afking so editing that out would be grand. Good luck with future attempts, whoever edits MTG goldfish videos is a master, though I imagine it also has to do with Seth knowing how it will ultimately be edited and him accommodating that with his narration style.

  • @lordmox21

    @brandonthorson3302 6 лет назад

    Agree, Reid is arguably the best content creator at explaining his logic and gameplay, but this editing is so distracting that I got nothing from the video. Please have the cfb editors take a different approach, or leave it alone and let us have our long pauses. we know how to speed up or fast forward the video as necessary, no need to take that control away from us.

  • @km-mm4gr

  • @drsmokebtch
    @drsmokebtch 6 лет назад

    I was watching this on my phone on silent in the library, and was very confused by all the jumping around. came home and put it on and see that it is just the way it is being edited. With the audio, Reid is usually narrating what he is going to do and then the video just skips over it all, so you can mostly follow it. But even with narration, it is sometimes really hard to follow. I've had to rewind the video a couple times to re-watch parts, because it is just too fast and abrupt. 18:27-18:50 was a bit much.

  • @AlexanderGmainer

  • @WoWDart
    @WoWDart 6 лет назад

    The editing is a touch quick. If you watch Reid's clock you can see that some of the edits cut long gaps of probably dead air (normal for Reid), but a lot of the edits cut out 2-3 seconds at best.
    Editing is a doubled edged sword. Ya swing it around too much and the comments section is going to come for your head.

    31:00 you say obviously Maelstrom Pulse is good vs Storm. I was actually typing to ask why and it dawned on me that you're expecting they bring in Empty the Warrens, which is fair. I'm still going to post this comment, though, because since Pulse is garbage against them game 1, I think an addendum to that commentary of "because they're going to bring in Empty" would have been helpful.

    • @Ethryas
      @Ethryas 6 лет назад

      My advice to improve the editing would be this: count the average number of cuts you've been making per video (ignoring length of cut, just number) on average and divide that number by 10. Then for the next similar length video you edit, start with that new number as the absolute upper limit for number of cuts you are allowed to make.
      This should result in a lot fewer, short cuts of

      @MrNoxLD 6 лет назад

      He wants to guarantee being able to cast Bloodbraid Elf on curve since it’s such a powerful card and he also has 4 manlands to sink mana into. Liliana of the Veil also helps you dump extra lands if you get her out so you aren’t discarding spells.

    Also about the editing: It was mostly fine, except for some awkward cuts here and there. People on RUclips are being crybabies? No way!

    I feel like he should have cast the Inquisition or Brutality instead of the Goyf in the final game. What's the 3 per turn when you can give yourself a chance to take an Exhaustion or Warp?

    Around 37 min you talk about bolting the death shadow and then bolt in response to the fetch to play around stubborn denial. That would not work. Pay 1 life Cracking fetch makes it a 4/4
