I love delirium being a direction green can go in, I feel like green has been missing some of it's identity, and its certainly a lot better than basking rootwalla.
I have been jonesing for a good draw 7 punisher deck draft for a while thanks for that!! Love this style of deck, it doesn't come together that often, I think this was a great version of it probably like a 8.5 / 10. Was close to a 3-0 but somebody had to go and let the dog out😮 😊. Thanks for the great cube content, I look forward to 1 pm est every day for my cube fix, really appreciate your detailed content and in depth play lines and draft decisions that you talk through it has really helped improve my cube draft/play !
I feel like Graveyard stuff isn't unplayable or unreasonable to put into a cube. The problem Online were all the, frankly god awful, Madness cards like the Basking Rootwalla.
It’s great to see you back at it with the awesome VCube decks 👍 Of course, I was with you all the way in Worlds, but it’s your magic of putting these awesome decks together day after day that makes it so great to watch. Would so love to draft with you someday on the server. Thanks as always!
I love how excited you are when explain a new duskmourn card… “this card is so fun, super broken, etc, buttt I’ll still take ponder here” 🤣 sick deck tho thanks for the great content!!
I used to think LSV was a smug jerk and I didn’t like him. He has grown on me quite a bit. I was wrong. I love his content and I love the drafts. I love the in depth description of why he takes what and it’s made me a better cuber. Thanks for the content
Fun draft and cool deck, if you dont mind when you pick cards from the new set could you hover them for a sec or perhaps explain a little what they do? I don't really know all the new stuff by heart yet so would help me as a viewer to understand better why they are good in a particular deck or what not. (you do explain some random new cards sometimes but not others so thought i'd mention it)
This is definitely the deck for LED! When your payoff is actually black lotus for timetwister *and* you have some little value with things like Urza and Cannoneer, it absolutely gets there. I'm a bit more skeptical (and may have been one of the negative nancies you were referring to in the past) when the payoff is 0 mana make a 1/1 and maybe tap for kappa cannoneer because of how bad it can be to draw a completely dead card. Really sweet deck. A shame it didn't get the 3-0, but Sandy is a beast (well, a dog).
Loved the deck and I'm excited to see the new additions! Have you considered trying a non-powered cube with your playgroup? Could be a nice thing to see! Just giving ideas, but I won't complain if the content stays on powered vintage cube lists. Sometimes I have the feeling that the power doesn't really make games more fun or exciting though... thoughts?
The last game end vamp is actually a cool what's the play. For the record I missed that LED doesn't work there too, so definitely not a criticism BUT I think there is a "winning" line! I think you grab bow masters. Play the skiff leave up two with the plan being to run him out of sneak targets. Specifically we're playing around sneak Fury, kill skiff at instant speed, but when you think what the hand has to be to win it's extremely narrow. Even given the chaos defiler Sandy needed another alternate lethal threat so he could hold up Fury to kill both bowmaster and token. After the fury gets spent your odds to win aren't high but all you need is for him to be a little gassed after the big sneak play. Again not a critique just thought the situation was really interesting!
Hey LSV love your collaborations with Cimo. I thought it would be cool if you put him in the hot seat. And seeing you are the premium cube drafter, I had this idea where you show Cimo 5 or so cards out of a pack and see if he can guess the first pick. I can imagine one set of 5 could be four solid cards but a fetch land would be the best first pick. Could he guess that pest infestation was a top card. Would he over value imperial seal over parallax wave. Stuff like that. Thanks for making such great content over the years, watching you cube has really help me build my cube.
57:49 Is there merit here to putting Marionette Apprentice in over Syr Ginger here? Both effectively do the same thing but Syr Ginger only does the thing if it sticks around, doesn't it?
Its always great to see new cards getting added to the cube 🎉🎉🎉 if it wasn't for the new Red Leyline they have done a great job with Duskmourn! Plus what is that BOBOMINATION deck? 😂😂 I guess with Crabomination? 😂
Hey Luis, I'm wondering what you're thoughts are on trying Flamewar, Brash Veteran over Undead Sprinter in your list to help support the aggressive Delirium decks. I just love the card, and how it synergizes with Laelia and Inti, while being supported by some of the same cards that make Gut good; it just checks a unique combination of boxes.
Hello, could you please explain the reasoning behind having the red rituals in the cube? I understand that Seething Song can stand on it's own but I'm not seeing the line for Desperate and Rite.
I think those are mainly to support Storm decks, but they also act like a Lotus Petal sometimes when you’re just trying to go fast (like with a Sneak Attack / Through the Breach). They probably don’t get played at a very high rate.
I dont get it why you, Luis Scott Vargas, with your cube reading skills and clever plays not manage to get an invatation to live vintage cube. I would have been totally Team LSV
@@MnemonicNex Or, if they make an exception for him, they might have to make exceptions for other people as well. So it's better to make no exceptions and do like you said, and have him on commentary.
Nice draft! Always fun to watch you play games. I direct messaged you on Twitter about the draft server, but it always thinks I’m a bot so it might be in your message request.
You might be able to manufacture a hypothetical where an argument could be made, but generally you always want the Mox, and especially here since it’s an artifact deck already.
So a regular draft? I mean I know you intend to keep teams, but what is the point of doing teams if you don't know them when drafting - you'd just draft best for you, which is exactly like your average pod/league draft. The team dynamics are absolutely dependent on knowing your teams
This would just lead to you drafting best for yourself in the same way as a pod/league draft, so the team aspect wouldn't really matter at all then. And LSV has done a lot of league/pod drafts recently. The whole point of team drafting like this is to know who you're cutting and the more you know players, even, the more you can get a sense of what you have to hate from whom.
They do random teams I think , but one of the best part of team drafting is knowing the other players what range they have , and the decks they like to play so you can pick and hate draft or hook them when nec.. which is all very important in pod drafting ( I much prefer pod drafting to league drafting, I do understand why tht do leagues to make it so more people can draft busted decks and it is much quicker for time purposes you can build and fire off games without having to wait, but I think it takes a little bit of fun out of it and reduces draft/ cards seen information value alot too..)
"Never doubt my LED again" into a seven lander is peak LSV in the best possible way.
No matter what team line up is, you almost always say "great squad". Wholesome
Oddly, Sandydog is never on LSV’s team. I wonder why that is.
I love delirium being a direction green can go in, I feel like green has been missing some of it's identity, and its certainly a lot better than basking rootwalla.
I love basking rootwalla... Just not in a powered cube.
“Cant cast Karn with workshops, but it feels like that should be allowed” 😂😂😂😂😂
l agree! Type should be legendary artifact planeswalker.
I had to go find that quote just to make sure he actually said "Workshop" (singular). Luckily he did.
I’m a simple man. I see LSV with double Mox, I click.
I’m a simpler man. I see LSV new video, I click
I’m the simplest man. I see a comment on an LSV video, I click.
Don't worry, you're all very simple men.
Given how few times LSV actually gets any power at all, let alone 2 pieces, you must not click on his videos very often… :)

LSV complaining about Hogaak (and dredge generally) for two months then immediately putting it in his cube is very funny.
I feel like it was more of the support for Hogaak that wasn't great - after all, LSV did run the card a few times with the MtGO Cube.
I feel like Graveyard stuff isn't unplayable or unreasonable to put into a cube. The problem Online were all the, frankly god awful, Madness cards like the Basking Rootwalla.
I LOVE that you guys have the domain and tribal stuff, and that we get to see it in action so often! Getting to see the 7/8 Goyf was nice!
It’s great to see you back at it with the awesome VCube decks 👍 Of course, I was with you all the way in Worlds, but it’s your magic of putting these awesome decks together day after day that makes it so great to watch. Would so love to draft with you someday on the server. Thanks as always!

I can definitely be a smug jerk 🤣
@@LSVargasid buy smug jerk merch, not gonna lie. ;)
20:23 definitely one of the funniest LSV moments of all time
Glad to see you back to your old tricks.

23:45 Jules, the Meal Ender
Thumbnail seems to indicate broken blue stuff, my favorite archetype!
5 picks in separating the vamp and the strip mine to make room for all the incoming zeros made me chuckle a bit.
Finally someone gets it
The last game end vamp is actually a cool what's the play. For the record I missed that LED doesn't work there too, so definitely not a criticism BUT I think there is a "winning" line!

Your cube is much more fun to watch than WotC's!
One of the sicker decks we've had recently.
57:49 Is there merit here to putting Marionette Apprentice in over Syr Ginger here? Both effectively do the same thing but Syr Ginger only does the thing if it sticks around, doesn't it?

That is a promising thumbnail
51:25 What happens if your opponent would draw 7 when you have both bowmasters and hullbeacher out?
The Hullbreacher prevents the opponent from drawing, so the Bowmasters doesn’t do anything.
New cube seems sweet
If you could draft the perfect deck in your opinion, what would it look like?
Been a while since we got to Draw 7 some peeps - good stuff!
Hey Luis, I'm wondering what you're thoughts are on trying Flamewar, Brash Veteran over Undead Sprinter in your list to help support the aggressive Delirium decks.

What is the reasoning behind that tribal instnat?
Tarfire was added to help out with supporting delirium as an enabler because it counts as two different types when in the yard.
I dont get it why you, Luis Scott Vargas, with your cube reading skills and clever plays not manage to get an invatation to live vintage cube. I would have been totally Team LSV
Probably because they are going to ask him to do commentary (that's why he couldn't win they rigged the packs against him)
@@MnemonicNex Or, if they make an exception for him, they might have to make exceptions for other people as well. So it's better to make no exceptions and do like you said, and have him on commentary.
Why can I hear every single molecule of saliva slide down his throat omg 😭
Nice draft! Always fun to watch you play games. I direct messaged you on Twitter about the draft server, but it always thinks I’m a bot so it might be in your message request.
Do we need to take a hard look at sylvan library soon or is it good enough in decks with moxen?
It’s funny because it seems like playing the vintage cube in real life for keeps bazaar would be first pick but it’s last pick online 😂
If you're already in red and you already have emerald do you actually take minsc over jet?
You might be able to manufacture a hypothetical where an argument could be made, but generally you always want the Mox, and especially here since it’s an artifact deck already.
Better list=more LSV Ws
Seems like a bit more attention to UG or BG lands to cast Leovold could be good? Especially after being so far over on playables
That 64 cube was messed up. This is my proof.
Calling trinket mage green fixing is the sort of thing that only happens in vintage cube XD
Still trying to find the Mox Sapphire from the thumbnail.
Oh oops lol, it’s emerald
Honestly Sapphire over Emerald would have been one of the few things that could’ve made this deck better.
What's up party people?
And hEeEere.
weird plays at the end there... over thinking it i think
hey lsv, thibaud is pronounced without the h.
so more like tea bowl
Algorithm food
Is sandy the same person as im2goot4ubarn
No
Can you try a draft where you don't know the teams? and of cause order of persons.
