Big fan of this series, putting best/meta decks of different magic eras against each other. Really want to see more of this.
Thanks!
I also appreciated that they were both similar midrange styles of decks, rather than 2024 Control vs 2014 Jund or something
Search magic cardmarket best deck ever series
How about the opposite? An OP older standard deck like counterbalance/top vs a modern deck?
@@andyspendlove1019 this is the reason why standard had a chance. playing vs combo it would have gotten crashed
Richard on the thumbnail is how we all feel from the Siege Rhino days XD
My neck, my back 👴🏾
I was wondering who the new cast member was for a minute 😂
Kind of a missed opportunity to have Seth edited with a clean shave.
Tell me about it.
I can't play Magic IRL so I watch a lot of it on RUclips. I must say you guys have done a good job here for several reasons.
You dedicate a lot of screen space to the card in play.
The editor is Johnny-on-the-spot with changing the card in play.
You play kinda slow and read the cards and don't use shortcuts.
You talk about your thought processes and don't just play silent magic.
The sound is good and no annoying music.
Overall a well done production that I wish other Magic RUclipsrs would learn from.
This.
yeah, agree with all you said. I don't play magic anymore but I like watching and seeing the goofy matchups they do, and the explaining the thought process. Bonus points for Seth not using his "youtube voice" in his games with Richard, that turns me off of most of his videos.
10/10 Thumbnail for Old Man Richard 😂
A vote for this being the Richard photo used for every thumbnail.
I started the video thinking it was someone else and was confused when the video started and had to go back and look at thumbnail.
Even if some missed triggers happened and other game errors came out of it. I love that you actually play 60 cards constructed in paper in these videos, please keep them coming.
Rule violation: In game four Seth created a 1/1 from Wedding Announcement, when he should have drawn a card.
Also, missed trigger from Aclazotz near the end, when Seth failed to create a bat and I think the day/night was off on various points, but I think I caught the mistake at only one point.
I guess the point being that the difference is that you were actually able to play by the rules in 2014, because there was so much less text on those cards.
Pretty sure he was supposed to get some lifelink from the bat too
He also made a lifelinker in game 3 when he attacked the planeswalker. It says you have to attack the player with the most life. Let me know if I’m misunderstanding something.
I think there was a lifelink missed from the bat that turn as well.
@@trevorwilliams5144you’re absolutely right. Preacher of the Schism is not a very well worded card in that respect
Now I want to see something like 2024 standard vs 2014 modern vs 2004 legacy vs 1994 Type 1 (vintage).
Would be hilarious!
Seth putting his adventure cards in a different spot every time he plays one
Ha, yeah, next time we'll have an official adventure zone. Hopefully it wasn't too confusing.
It truly is an adventure
You could stuck it in the deck - multiples will still be convoluted, but it is clearly not on the battlefield
Wouldn’t have it any other way
@@ulyciousi have a friend who does that but it just doesn’t work for me personally
I do like this video format. I'd love to see the goldfish crew playtest user-submitted and brewed decks this way when a new sets are about to roll out similar to what SCG used to do. Miss those days.
I loved those
There is something special about watching actual paper magic vs. digital. Commander clash, and these videos are great content now that they are paper.
digital is fine as long as its Arena, but god am I glad they stopped playing on MTGO, that client was so scuffed and incredibly boring to watch
@@TheSmartCinemaHonestly, the entertainment from Commander Clash for me was mostly the talking and banter among them, basically a bit Like the Podcast but with a Game going on. But I have also played a lot of mtgo, so I also dont mind it. So far for me the paper is a downgrade, but I can see why many like it better.
As a magic player who started in late 2019, I really like this series just to see old decks being played.
I'm glad you are enjoying it!
Old modern from like 2013 thru before Modern Horizons was a ton of fun to watch and play.
Same here. Its very cool to see what my mate came down from QLD to play all those years ago.
Sorry to hear you missed real mtg and all the great art it used to offer.
i started in 2019 too, crazy what the games turned into in just that short time
Courser of Kruphix being 10 years old makes me feel old 😢 That card was the new hotness when I started playing.
bruh I remember being like what the heck this card does too much
My feel-old moment was when I realized I can recite from memory what every card in the Jund deck does but I had to read the Standard cards. 😂
I appreciate all the clarity about all the cards and what they do. It would be easy or even natural to say “it’s Goyf, you all know what’s up” and I appreciate the effort to make things better for newer players
I know that this is Goldfish so Jund midrange was the inevitable meme pick for “old modern” deck, but I think it would be interesting to use this format to show off other past modern lists. Decks like titan bloom, twin, melira pod, etc.
But don't you know that Jund Mirror is the best way to play Magic? (Best as in most enjoyable) /s
Melira pod and Twin would be interesting. I doubt 2024 Standard could keep up.
@@tranquilwyvern Standard Dimir would demolish Twin.
LOL, I think Twin would easily win against many standard decks, as would any old modern combo deck because standard decks wouldn't be tuned to account for combo decks.
That said, what if instead of orzhov, you had esper midrange, where you would bring in discard and counterspells...that might make some matchups closer.
The thing with Titan bloom is that deck was straight up busted. Same with infect decks with git probe.
Crazy to think this Jund list competed in the same modern format as Titan Bloom, Twin, Pod, and Affinity.
@@mattm7798 But if twin were in the format people would just adjust. Plus it just loses to cut down. I played so much twin in that era. There's no way it would be competitive in standard right now.
I really like these videos
My favorite series was the banned bracket from some years ago so I'm glad y'all are doing more
fantastic production quality - loved the setups and the commentary. More please!
This is the best series on your channel. I would LOVE to see more videos in this style, either digital or in paper. It would be great to see broken standards like Darksteel Standard fight against another broken Standard from 10 or 15 years later and see how it plays out. I think one could match up different standard metas from pre fire design like this and get very interesting results. Post fire it all seems like kind of a wash.
Preacher of the schism doesn't trigger when you attack planeswalkers. Didn't matter but still
Huh, interesting that the 2 "on attack" triggers have different conditions.
It also seemed like at one time wedding was played in a turn where 2 creatures attacked but Seth made a token instead of drawing a card.
The way it's worded, it seems like it doesn't trigger the vampire ability, but would trigger the card draw ability
What a weird way to word that card.
@@MTGGoldfish Because it's only if it attacks the player with the most life or tied for most, not that player or a planeswalker they control. Which, yeah, it is a bit confusing. Conversely, the draw ability CAN trigger, because it looks for when you attack while you have the most life, or tied for most, which tacks on a little bit more confusion.
@@MTGGoldfish Blame commander for that weird multiplayer wording on a standard set card.
Absolutely love this content! Y’all are great doing anything you do, but this paper Magic series has been especially fun to watch!
Gigantic fan of these "historical matchups" or "Old vs New" type videos. More of these please!
51:28 seth you don't make a human because you attacked with two creatures so you would draw a card. don't really know how it would have changed if you seth was one card deeper but down a chump block / removal target from richard
Oh, good call. Oops!
Also they forgot to count a life for the lifelink bat...
It also looks like Richard missed a draw step after a Bob trigger. (same game)
Please keep doing this series. This is awesome and I LOVE seeing stuff like this
More Richard playing Magic! More historical comparisons! This is amazing stuff that truly shows Magic's everchanging history and gameplay that I love from MTGGoldfish!
Seth: "I think I've gotta keep my Deep Cavern Bats in despite them being meh"
Me: "You missed a chance to say 'despite them being bleh bleh'" **Vampiric hissing and Sorin impersonations**
= = = = = = = = = = =
This is series has been so fun I think we should consider making a fan-made format where one deck is played from something from this year and then for your second game, you have to play something meta/popular from yesteryear. It's just such a neat challenge of skills as well as a good indicator to really show how much MTG has changed. You do get matches like this sometimes when a returning player shows up and gets in that niche of 'my cards are old but they do stuff yours don't" but having a whole format of it would be just so much fun.
Jund was a product of it's time. The cards in the deck were efficient for the time frame of what Modern looked back then. Bolt was overall good, but stuff like Decay and Malestorm Pulse were more targeted removal spells for other decks in the format (ex. Decay for Twin's Pestermite/Deciver and Pulse for stuff like Affinity). Even cards like Baloth were more silver bullets for the Jund mirror/Burn than MU like this. I distinctively remember that Jund struggled against 4+cmc cards strictly because Jund wanted to keep thier cards and the removal spells low and efficient against the other low/efficient decks. It's very interesting to see things like this in this video.
Nadu v. Hogaak was really cool to see, so I am excited that you make this a series! hope there's more to come, it's really interesting to see the old v. new MTG.
also honestly not surprised to see 2024 standard rip into decade old modern. the power creep is evident from set to set nowadays, so going back a full decade is almost a death sentence.
These episodes are excellent. Super entertaining & the editing is great!
Love it
The fact that this is even a question shows the insane power creep MTG has had recently. Don't get me wrong, there's always been creep, but the current era is something special. And this video doesn't even have new eternal-format-only cards.
It's really sad to see the direction magic has taken for the last 5 years
@legendarydragoon1462 Love your name btw
Woohoo love this content guys. Have a good Monday!
Thanks!
Hearing Richard have normal opinions and good card analysis is so wild after every commander clash episode with the most deranged takes possible.
i love each card detail displayed on the screen, this is great .
The Abzan analogy is apt. Most Wedding announcement decks prey on the Black Go for the Throat decks as long as the Announcement decks also have removal (and the creatures are decently resilient against removal). It was one of the key cards for Mono-W+X decks back in the Invoke Despair days and still is leading up to rotation. The Orzhov deck also has the "slightly bigger" composition which puts it at an advantage.
27:35 In regards to cutting discard in Midrange mirrors, there's the aspect that a decent number of the Midrange mirrors have been Blue (counterspells), have involved the Wandering Emperor (a relatively expensive noncreature), or have involved draw-discard effects like Raffine or Fable to get rid of "dead" discard cards for value. Also, there's a lot more card advantage now, so while you may not be able to hellbent your opponent, it's also less likely to be dead. I think the wisdom about sideboarding out discard spells comes more from heavy Modern discard with IoK, Thoughtseize, and Lili to get both players hellbent while current Standard Midrange doesn't play that way.
I love theses new types of videos! I would love to see 2010 legacy vs 2024 modern!! It’s also great to get Richard content on this channel!
This was extremely fun. I would love some more paper play on the main channel. Also talking about sideboarding and post game discussion are things I love to hear. If you keep at it, mybe consider putting in a little overlay somewhere with names and cmc of cards in hand; this is one of the little things I adore and appreciate about Carl and Tommi over at Cardmarket/Mengus Workshop, respectively.
I LOVE these Modern videos, I hope you guys keep em coming! I dont play Modern but i enjoy 60 card formats.
The production quality is unmatched. Such a pleasant watch.
Loving the series guys. I still find it amazing you guys have all the decks in paper. Arena and pre release are all my magic cards
PLEASE do more of these! It's awesome seeing cool older decks against new powercrept weaker formats.
Everyone’s talking about the wedding announcement game violation but literally a minute earlier Richard forgot to draw a card for turn because his bob revealed a land
I absolutely love this new webcam series, I started playing mtg in 2015 and this has me feeling very nostalgic 😊
1:07:10 Richard discards a land to Aclatzotz's attack trigger, Seth shoud've created a 1/1 flying bat. Also, would be interested to see modern without straight to modern cards.
It's fine he created an extra bat at 40:30 because Preacher didn't attack a player (I think).
I would love to see old extended decks against modern decks nowadays. Memory jar megrim, Oath of druids combo, etc.
I really enjoy this video series, just a fun premise watching some powerful decks go at it. Probably the most interesting part is just the discussions around the games too it's really hard to quantify sometimes just how pushed modern card designs are. Even just seeing "DEATHTOUCH" or "LIFELINK" or some other ridiculous keyword stapled onto creatures now when tarm is basically a vanilla is pretty crazy
Love this series, love seeing different eras and formats colliding like this and really satisfies my curiosity even if the deck I want to win doesn't do too hot 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Man im 2 minutes in and im loving the energy and passion coming from Richards remembering about the times he played this deck
Wow. This was the era I started getting really into Magic, and it's crazy to be reminded of what we all thought of as overpowered back then. Bolt and Thoughtseize may be timeless, but it's rare to see any other cards from old Jund anymore, outside of some Goyfs on occasion. I'm blown away.
At 40:40 preacher has to attack a player with the most life to create the token. Its a bit counter intuitive because that ability cares if you attack planeswalkers, but the second ability doesn’t.
I have played against this card so many times and never knew that
Loved playing a Jund deck like that back then. It was a blast to see it in action again!
decks vs each other from different time periods and formats is really good content.
LOVE this series. This is actually the ONLY non digital magic games I've ever wanted to watch aside from the professors stuff
I love this series
As a relatively new player, it's fun to see decks from different metas go against each other, or previously banned cards to see how warping they were haha
Love this kind of content s+ tier. Also All jokes aside I think richard could pull off a beard seeing that thumbnail.
I really love these Vs videos, great idea!
Love these videos and it's so good, when bat sniped bolt I expected him to hand it over
That's a very cool format for a video. If I could suggest an improvement, it would be great if you could show your hands like Mengu's Workshop does on the side of the screen, or in a similar way. Even for the Commander episodes, it would be cool to know which cards are in whose hand.
Love this! Feel like domain would had been a better representative from standard, but not sure really.
I think maybe for a future edition maybe give the old deck the chance to swap up to 5 or so for meta call cards (the swap should be from the timeframe of the deck, maybe taking out cards that made sense for the metw back then).
Either way, pls more, this are great!
This is super nostalgic. I remember getting so excited beating a teacher's 2014 jund deck with my $20 boros heroic brew
Awww I saw Orzhov Midrange and was hoping to see some snorse action myself, but this was fun none the less. Great stuff.
In future episodes, please tell us if someone mulligans and how far down they went.
I love Richard's piloting of Jund :D having the best time
Seeing that jund deck laid out brings back so many memories. Absolutely beautiful
I love this series! I’d love to see some really old top of the meta decks, like a deck straight out of combo winter!
Lmaooo that thumbnail XD
In game 4, Wedding Announcement should've drawn Seth a card after he played it since he attacked with 2 creatures. Not sure if that would've changed the game but easily overlooked thing about the enchantment.
Some interesting moments at 33:00 in when both players began main-phasing their cards. Richard starts with a Pulse for more damage, but if he didn’t, Seth possibly takes out the Goyf and Richard then has a Bob. Then Seth main phases the Planeswalker to kill Goyf, exposing himself to the Raging Ravine crack back (rather than flashing in the walker after attacks).
Really like this new concept of making two top deck from different meta compete against each other. It make for some interresting match you'll never experience at an LGS or mtga.
The series is great so far, It’s really interesting to see how historic decks fare against each other. Can’t wait for the inevitable TBD Standard deck with Uro and friends to make an appearance and make everyone miserable 😂
I've really enjoyed this and the Nadu vs Hogaak videos. I don't really personally have much in the way of ideas for more similar videos, but if you make them I'll probably watch. Hopefully more Modern?
Love these Vs videos!
Excellent video! If you're going to do something like this again, my suggestion is to put a actual Standard deck against 2014 Naya Zoo or 2014 UrzaTron
Yes, more 1on1 paper play! Please please please do more of this, it is a great format!!!
Imagine taking your just bought event deck to this thing called friday night magic, sitting down to try out this cool card game your friends talked about and facing Jund, getting thoughtseized first turn and the opponent starts to write down every card of your hand full of basics and vanillas. This guy must've been great company back in the days...
But great content, I love to see the old magic.
Love this aproach of playing old times god stuff decks vs new decks of actual meta.
Not gonna lie: as fun of a video as this was (and it WAS a great video!), watching THE Tier 1 Modern deck from when I was an active Magic player get stomped by a current Standard deck was a bit depressing. Made me feel pretty old-like the Jund deck and I should be sitting on rocking chairs on the back porch of an assisted living facility!
Absolutely love this
What a neat format!
I know you won game 2 anyway, but didn't you have lethal at 19:00 by animating the man land and attacking? (The fortress)
when seth talks it makes me feel like hes gonna kill me and eat my flesh. just creepy af
Don't think Richard realized Fulminator is an out to Aklazotz.
the power creep is real, but at least hasbro shareholders are happy that wotc is printing more cards: Continue to pay to win. LOL
I go feral for Richard gameplay and desperately want to see more of it. In this I am not alone
As a fellow former jund player, Richard is such a vibe lol
Thumbnail game on point! honestly this is a rather weak version of jund, I think it would be fine with pre mh jund. But I can understand if you want a good round decade between the decks
My only solace after watching this, is that jund gave the good fight :')
Next we need Seths 2012 Soul Sisters against Richards Standard White Weenie
Great series, +1 for paper magic series and +100 for old Jund. Abrupt Decay MVP this matchup ❤
The remove duress/thoughtsieze post board idea is nice UNLESS your midrange opponent is playing cards you can't deal with once resolved early game such as one rings or panthic of orthancs ...in my grenzo deck the duresses have basically saved the deck from being completely unplayable and turns it into a top contender just because we have a way to deal with the 3 mana "i win the game" artifacts before they hit the board and still have mana up to do other things ...
absolutely love this content pls keep it up !
I genuinely miss playing Dark Confidant and Liliana of The Veil.
Also the mana base hasn’t changed and if anything is worse now than back then and that’s because of Urza’s Saga. The card is fantastic but things can get awkward, painful, or both.
This just feels like a excuse for Richard to play Tarmogoyf and it actually be good
Cool showcase! But if I may add, you guys didnt have to read off the cards cuz the edit does well of displaying every card on the stack. So if we needed to know what a card does we can just pause.
I would LOVE to see more of this 10-year-gap style. Modern of 2020 vs Legacy of 2010!
Seth you attacked a planeswalker, which is not a player so Preacher does not create a token. Great show BTW
Why does Aclazotz transform into the creature tapped?
Edit: Never mind, because the land taps for the ability causing the creature to be tapped.
I love how Seth just says 'we' instead of 'I' when talking about his plays. Old habits die hard :)
the fact that Seth does not animate the restless forteress is killing me it would have win the 2 game without giving Richard a chance and it also put counter on it with the virtue
I love Temur energy, Sultai Scarab God and Bant Nexus! You will never change my mind!!!
This and commander clash both being in paper format are my favorite series to watch
I wonder how recent you can go with Modern vs. the infamous "2020 Magic" Standard. Especially with no ban list.
I'm Class of 2014 and I vividly rememeber that deck.
Can confirm, 2014 Jund was _peak_ MtG
Is orzhov one of the best decks in standard? Wouldn’t azorious, esper mid, simic cookies etc be a better representation of standards power level?
it has been for the last few weeks. Though Seth isn't running the version of the deck with Caustic Bronco that is doing so well.
We wanted to have it be midrange vs. midrange. We discussed doing Esper, but figured it didn't really make a ton of difference and Orzhov is currently the #1 deck on the metagame page so we just went with it.
@@MTGGoldfish fair enough
Also, given that this is 2014 Modern, Jund definitely was NOT one of the best decks in the format at the time. Not saying it was necessarily bad, but if you look at the state of modern in 2014 on MtGTop8, Jund is around 7th in metagame share with 5% of results. If we really wanted to see tier 1 July 2024 standard versus tier 1 July 2014 modern, Richard should have been playing Affinity, Twin, or Birthing Pod, because those were the decks that were actually really good at that time, not Jund.
