- MPL player Reid Duke brings his venerable Jund to bear against Dmitriy Butakov and his tribal Humans deck to kick off the Modern Constructed rounds of the Mythic Championship II here in London.
Full Coverage: magic.wizards....
The first MTG coverage I watched was Reid resolving a Liliana OTV and i felt in love
28:11 Reid refusing to cast Dark Confidant off Bloobraid Elf what a play!
That War of the Spark ad was insane.
If Riley Knight and Cedric Phillips announced a game I think it would break MTG. Would need an immediate ban.
"natural tron" for watanabe, not so sure now...
Yuuya Watanabe has invented a special mulligan rule just for himself.
Beard Reid Best Reid
They need to make war if the spark a movie with that exact animation.
PS2 like graphics? ooook
Seff H idk what ps2 you had
I can't wait for modern tourment 2021
I would be worried if the person I played against played loyalty counters like shown at 17:24
WE TRIED TO JUND EM BOIS
Pre-recorded game - no commentating on play, not showing cards - thanks MTG!
Pretty sure Vialing in the Thalia was wrong. You can eat Bloodbraid or Bob if you flash it in during combat, and you're not preventing any spells being cast because cascade is free + Thalia's 1.
magic pre-covid feels like a whole different game
Loving the revised Lightning Bolts! 18:06
Bloodbraid killed Duke. Insane top deck from his oponnet. Variance Avery body
Tim Willoughby AKA Nerdy Hemsworth
I cant find more up to date modern tournaments anywhere. how come? i need my fix people, i need my fix >_
Probably the world ending pandemic?
@@MrTheWanz well, for one thing its not world ending. the world doesnt care whether humans live or die.
and its not even a humanity ending pandemic.
but i wrote this comment over 10 months ago when there was no pandemic....
@@dervakommtvonhinten517 world ending as in the entire world has shut down, and 10 months ago there most certainly was a pandemic
@@MrTheWanz no, the first reported cases and countermeasures done outside china were in march, more in april. at the beginning of february 2020 there wasnt a global pandemic. thats just wrong.
and not the world has shut down, parts of human society have shut down. the world itself is revitalizing. for example, dolphins returning to venice.
@@dervakommtvonhinten517 lol pandemic means a disease that is country wide, just because it wasnt in your country doesnt mean there wasnt a pandemic, oh i see youre just arguing over semantics, lmfao, good luck with that, brainlet
Make Jund great again.
LOL the caster said Mantis Rider isn't a Human.
That music playing during matches or when the people talking end it so horrible.
He should've fatal pushed the Mantis Rider game 3 after that verdant fetch rather than casting BBE.
Stop making the Mythic Editions
Didnt Watanabe get cought cheating?
Yes. Marking tron lands. His hof got revoked and he’s banned from high level play
RIP Watanabe...
What's the point of revealing your sideboard to your opponent defeats the entire purpose
This rule seems ridiculous to me and takes away the element of surprise that can give your deck and edge
Seems like it could just decide a match before it Starts
It's because of scouting. As tournaments go on it's pretty easy to keep an eye on the undefeated players particularly if you are part of a team. So by the later stages of a tournament you may well have a good idea what people are playing anyway. Plus some of the players may also have been featured. By giving out decklists you even it up.
@@Raamat7 so you give out the decklists because people already know what you are playing unless you aren't doing well
@@arobot7426 By giving out the decklists you even out the edge that some players might get and others dont. By not giving the lists, there would be an incentive to have your friends actively scout the opposition and make notes that you could discuss between rounds, so it would become a team effort and not a 1 vs. 1 game. People who scout deliberately or by accident would get the edge and players who came alone wouldn't, and this would have an uneven impact on the matches from outside the actual game of Magic (yeah, I know it's been months since this discussion started).

Man ive been watching reid duke lately and he doesnt play as tight anymore. And I'm a big fan of his. He should've never casted the elf, he hand enough mana to play liliana plus 2 green for ooze. Granted he would still be dead with mantis rider, but if he was thinking deeper than that, he wouldve pass the turn and have 4 green sources and not die that turn
@JJ Harry Yeah I agree. Playing liliana to trade for the worst creature and just gain some life off scooze really feels like playing to not lose. Plus BBE can already trade with or eat any of the creatures Liliana would've taken. The probability of Reid both not cascading into removal spell and also his op hitting either image or mantis rider to win that turn after already playing 3 of those (so around 5-outer) is quite low and I think one of the only combination of outcomes that makes the Liliana line better. Arguably BBE into removal spell into op doesn't peel is the only way he wins that game, so you gotta play to your outs, not play to not lose in my IMO.
Simon Willig yeah this guy doesnt know magic
Yeah...go back and imagine BBE hits lightning bolt instead of IoK. Duke almost definitely wins that game.
I believe he stated that he wished he never casted the elf. Plus its just a bad play to cast BBe in a toght match where the chances of having a removal spell is kinda slim compared to hitting a non factor card. FYI im not sayong all of this after watching make the play, i made the statement as he played it. I like ried, but I don't dick ride. End of story
@@johnjupson985 lmao.. "don't dick ride;" Love watching Duke and play a lot of BG/x decks myself while having to also play mirrors all day (local scene is polluted by em Jundy boys). While I believe BBE was so god awful in game 3, I understand Reid taking the risky line to hopefully win (play to win) by the time it came to the end there, though, I personally would have rather liked to start eating creatures in the graveyard with the scooze and playing liliana even if it is just for the edict effect since you know you're going to have to start doing that anyway.. I don't recall his exact hand on the first BBE, but I think he didn't have many other cards in his hand that were good lines of play otherwise. TBH, looking at the opener, it seemed like a rather greedy hand to keep on the draw against humans and I would have probably mulligan'd it. The main issue with the entire game 3 is that Reid still had bob in his deck post sideboard, which I think is just an entirely greedy error, especially on the draw in a close tempo-based match up. Obviously, hitting the bob there on the first BBE was a virtual game-ending error. This is how I see it. Discussing the play of the 2nd BBE is a bit more of a moot discussion. It was a pray to hit removal spell in the face of probably like 40% chance of hitting a crappy card that doesn't impact the board like an IoK and losing for sure vs. turning the game around with something like a lightning bolt, which is indeed exactly what happens and he is ultimately punished by a pretty solid top decked image right after the mantis rider.
