    So cool seeing another person brew nashi. There’s actually more than just the reanimate there’s all three of the enchantment ones so you can “draw” them off of nashi hitting. You’re also able to do a doomsday pile with animate dead thoracle and three other cards where you can mill thoracle and get the reanimation spell from him connecting

    The samut list the way I understand it as a mono green player is that samut gives haste to the big mana tappers so you don't have to expose them to removal before the time you want to use them. Ashaya quirion ranger and many other pieces make me think this is has a combo line with captain sisay somehow.
    It is a very interesting take. If you could bring the pilot on the show to talk about this it would be really interesting, because the idea of sammut solves the fear of playing your piece and hoping to untap with it.

    I was one of the kinnan players that didn't make the cut I have been messing around with things and I was thinking about taking out endurance as it felt dead a lot of the time for me. What makes it so great I see a lot of people talking highly about it

    Saw in half enables loops with endurance or ewit post infinite mana and also has the value interaction with ewit of pay 2B get a card from graveyard and a 1/1 body (don't really know if that's why it's in the list though)

    Meanwhile, at my LGS there's a father/son group that always end up in pods together and constantly help each other win. Case in point, last week the son counterspelled a person's Rhystic Study when that person only had one card in hand, but did not counterspell his father's Necropotence cast just before the Rhystic player's turn.

      @@fitnesshunter6302 The mathematics of collusion make it such that it's more likely the cooperating players win more than they would without cooperation. It's cheating, just usually a softer form of it that people don't call out as often. Interestingly enough, the results of this collusion are the same as stacking decks and similar strategies that would get you banned from competitive play in most places.

    That dualcaster is actually super spicy in samut. Kiki + dualcaster + emerald charm is an infinite dualcaster (+Haste) set up without those mostly dead duplication spells now. it also doesnt force an ordering. you can just drop a dualcaster into anything and still have it function later.

    Impressive and interesting to see where the deck had gone after the ban.

    At first GZ Ian. Just to watch out the Sissay (Chatterfang / Soultrader Line). Just these two on board no Mana available from other sources: Then the minimum I calculate = 17 life. Does someone have a way to do it with less?
    3 life to get Sissay out. 5 life tutor Tyvar, Jubilant Brawler, 5 life tutor Selvala, Heart of the Wilds, 1 life activate Selvala, Heart of the Wilds, 1 life + 4 Mana from Selvala, Heart of the Wilds tutor Kinnan, untap Selvala, Heart of the Wilds with Tyvar, 1 life activate Selvala, Heart of the Wilds tutor Emiel the Blessed 3 mana left for blink Selvala, Heart of the Wilds, 1 life to activat Selvala, Heart of the Wilds = infinite Mana . 3+5+5+1+1+1=16 one life for still not die = total of 17. Someone has a better line?

    Enduring Vitality is great Ian and now that you're running it, can you spare a moment to hear about our lord and savior HORSESHOE CRAB? This guy Kinnan and EV is infinite simic mana, and you can just flip into both, and if you only have kinnan + Crab you can instant speed tutor EV and win on the stack! EMBRACE THE CRAB IAN

      @drunksniperlol Месяц назад

      ​@@ComedIanMTG Because crab is easier to tutor, harder to counter, and has both Agatha Soul Cauldron synergy and MGE synergy (MGE entering as crab is infinite blue with Kinnan). It's also a non-human so now you can now make infinite mana by ONLY activating kinnan because if you hit both crab and EV it's over as soon as it gets to your turn IF crab is summon sick otherwise it's over as soon as kinnan's ability resolves. If you're on EV and kinnan you can endstep Chord for crab and people have that single endstep to interact with you. At first when you cast a harmless crab with nothing but kinnan people won't batch an eye but then every single creature tutor in your deck is a win attempt because EV coming out of anywhere is game over. Having Kinnan floodcaller and EV/Crab is also super deadly because no one knows when you'll instant speed a sorcery tutor and win. CRAB HAS LEGS IAN!!!
