Great to hear some sequencing for the deck, thanks! I've used your skelly decks plenty in the past, remaking this now! Except I am short one Adaptive Automaton and one Death Baron, so I subbed both of those for Patchwork Banner
Glad to have you back Mike. Unfortunately, I spent my last Wildcard just before I noticed this video. I am very sorry that I cannot participate in this further desecration of human remains. I hope you all kick everyone's asses and I wish you luck in the fights.
Definitely appreciate the walkthrough. I was missing a handful of cards last time you posted this deck, but miss plays was the biggest problem for me. I can fill more of the gaps now, so I’ll give another try.
This is such a great deck! I've been playing it since you first showed it. The tempo plays are so fun and skeletons make it even better. Synergies popping everywhere. I was having trouble with temporary lockdown for a while because I hadn't realised that I could remove it with Into The Flood Maw (on opponents endstep obviously). Turns out that spells not just a worse version of unsummon, the gift option give this deck an extra dimension.
Thanks!!! And agreed, bouncing temporary lockdown is clutch and wins games for sure :))). Can do it on their end step, or even your own turn if have corpses for haste!
Great deck and greater advices, thanks a lot :) I was messing around with a orzhov version of this one. Helping hand, Sheltered by Ghosts and Nurturing Pixie instead of blue spells. Not better than the Dimir one but pretty funny though. Merry Christmas everyone!
Great walk-through of the play order/priorities of the different cards! I've played this deck (or something very similar) with some success and I agree that those makes the most sense!
Love your vid! Could I add patchwork and a changeling instead of 3 barons and the last construct. (ran out of wildcards again..... ) Keep up the GREAT work! LET's GO!
Okay wow! usually when content creators post like an 80% winrate its because they played like 5 games and got 4 wins or something, and it's not statistically relevant. I really appreciate you putting in the time to play more than 40 matches to really test the deck!
Thanks for your insight ! Still gotta fight Plat Hell, but doing better than my previous attempt using this deck 😊 Good point about the 3cmc cards priority ! ... How about you revisit your Varmints deck? Using Kiora/Fallaji Arch/Picklock prankster for easy and selective mill then go boom with Enduring Courage and plotted Varmints?
I think some people getting suboptimal results might also be trying to sub other dimir tap dual lands for the fast/pain lands to save rares. Which are just death in an aggro deck... you'd be better off subbing in just swamps/islands rather than the dimir scry/surveil lands.
I haven't played in months so my rank was back down at the bottom. I blasted through bronze and silver with this deck, but kept losing in gold. A lot of time it wasn't the deck's fault. Just had a bad draw or mono-red out aggroed me. I switched to my explorer deck and now I am in plat. I plan to try the skeletons deck again though.
@@santylestari7457 I've been playing versions of the Boros Heroic for a while. (Illuminator Virtuoso is my favorite card.) This new version from LVD is a banger. You can win on turn 3 or 4 out of nowhere: ruclips.net/video/cV6WuOsjkMI/видео.html
Some deck edit ideas based on facing mono-red so many times. The Hired Claw is annoying and cheap to replay, especially when my opponent has 3 in play on turn 2. Bouncing seemed bad so I put 4 Cut Down with 3 Unsummon for the 1 drop interaction. Faired better fighting through gold 1. Shuffler still likes to give me 3 drop lords or 1 drop creatures, rarely a good mix. No fault of the deck, just Arena.
Can definitely mess around with some removal as needed. In my experience I just let them hit me, and outpace them. And save the bounce for a blowout, rather than trying to bounce the one drops. Of course, can be tight sometimes haha
Again with the skeletons...By any chance,aren't you a necromancer as a second job...?😂 (Then again,who am I to speak,I made at least 10 different dragon decks in the last 2-3 weeks,trying to make the blue leyline work...One was even named "Sarkhan,Saheeli and Orthion,partners in dragon copying...Although it's perfectly describes the deck...yeah,let's not call it that.) Good to see you back! I hope everything is allright with you. Take care and if you can,show as some fun ones!
Three hours of play time?!? Been playing ranked but know that with monthly degrades not likely to go very far. Still working through gold with a Golgari deck, but have to quit playing after 5 games or so. The fight to go 4-1 where it feels like I am fighting the shuffler more than my opponents, who get four Stormchaser Talent in play, bouncing with Town and slowing me down. Or four Hinterland Sanctifier gaining ridiculous life to drag games out. Going to add Maelstrom Pulse to my deck and hope to get through games quicker.
Played a bunch more on my phone too and crushed :). Gotta play a decent amount to stay in top 1,000 end of season. But I love this deck, so I’m good with it!
If you can get into plat before the end of the month you'll get some nicer rewards, just need a 34% win rate and to play enough, cos you get 2 pips per victory in any rank before plat
@@JohnnyTightIips Skels got me into gold 1, just 3 more wins for plat. My Golgari deck struggled today. First game with Skels was great, shuffler got stingy after that one.
Bro this is right up my alley! I love this deck so much, and the fact that it's already battle tested makes it so much better. Appreciate it!
Woot woott!
what are the odds, just when i look up your channel on xmas you upload a nice little treat :3
:))))))

Should still work hopefully! :)

:))))). Will have some more budget ones soon!
We missed this. You’re crushing it

Thanks! Check out my deck right before this one called Perfect Orzhov. Is a variant of that :)
Merry Christmas Mike ! Love my skellies. Thanks for the in-depth on sequencing ❤
Thanks!!!! You too! :)))

A true christmas gift, skeletons :)
Jack Skellington would be happy
:))))

Thanks!!! You too! :)

Thanks!!! :). You too!
Thanks for your insight !

I’ll take a look! :)))
I friggin love this deck
Im surprised, I thought the previous three tree mascot + demon unholy annex thing would be winning more than with this zombie lord!

Thanks! :)))

I think like all decks and the ranks you play make the variables. Its a good deck and ive enjoyed it. I'm 21-17 with it. So 55% wr
Love to see skeletons still crushing it
:)))))
Skellies are never out of style
Woot woot!
Mythic Mike and skeletons!? Christmas gift
:))))

Yeah I’ve just been smashing super consistently through everything personally! :)
You mind sharing your explorer deck? was looking for something to work on that is different

Would be interested to see this grind out in bo3 w a board
Maybe I’ll give it a try :)

Best of 3 version?
I may have to make one :)
You’re gonna have to change your name to Skeleton Mike at this rate.
:))))
Have a merry little xmas.
You too! :)))
Added skullsnap and is working better
Worth a try! :)
Always à necromancian ☠☠☠☠💀💀💀💀
:))))
I’m stuck in diamond 4 with this deck.
Not sure. I’ve consistently done well over like 7 hours.
I played like 10 games, but I never got like the draws that you were getting at all.
Nice!
:))))
Oops
