One of my friends said he'd sell me a land destruction deck for cheap, but to do so I had to get two of my friends to also buy one of those decks (which would fund my deck purchase); each of those needed 2 of their friends, and so on. Turns out the whole thing was just a big Ponza scheme

I'm confused when Seth has the bolt in hand, knows that if he kills the Bowmasters it is just coming back, looks at Lurrus with its 2 toughness, and says "Well, gotta kill that Bowmasters." Lurrus also has lifelink?? To me, that is the biggest threat.
I am also confused by that play. The best I could come up with is that seth loves card draw and didn't want his [[The One Ring]]'s card draw to cost him bowmaster pings. That doesn't seem like a good enough reason to skip the obvious line of stopping the loop though, so maybe I'm still missing something? Maybe he didn't think killing the Lurrus was ultimately going to be good enough, so he was gambling on drawing into a brotherhood's end, so he was giving up the removal for life total?
@40.34 when opponent finds that thoughtseize against his Brotherhood's End. His reaction is both pure comedy gold and also the most human. Very statuesque. Way to claw back from that position. Well done. Timeless is the most fun on Arena I've had in a very long time.
The origin of the deck's name is so funny to an Italian because the name is mispelled (the dish is called "panzerotto"), and we got so close to a world where a magic deck is called after a pasta dish
We already have at least two breakfast options (Cephalid Breakfast and Cheerios) and a beer (Dead Guy Ale). A nice dinner course sounds lovely, and I'm probably forgetting loads of other food/beverage names.
Seth out here doing the Lord's work, Stone Raining and Blood Mooning unsuspecting "zoomers". I do wince everytime he mentions the "Brother's-hood End" though.
While SO is somewhat right about how to cast brainstorm, I feel like the card can be used to just look 2 deep if you really need it. I also feel like the intended use for the card was to counter hand disruption by placing combo pieces and bombs on your library. Cards that mill you and miracle cost cards are also great use cases along with Brainstorm.
Yeah, although it looks at 3 new cards, not 2. I used to play Brainstorm before the Onslaught fetchlands existed, and Brainstorm without shuffle is still at least as good as Ponder or Preordain - and it's an instant.
I literally made up in my head that there was like a legendary creature that blew up a land on etb named ponza which the deck was named after but is no longer playable (like how decks are named after a card with a mechanic even after the card phazes out of the deck). The fact that its just some dish is breaking my head right now. Now I understand ThrabenU's point
Timeless looks fun, but I don't have the wilds to build a competitive deck for that format. I suspect many other free to play players are in the same boat as I am.
I mean, that just means it's true to the format it mimics, Legacy. Want a competitive deck? Better either have expensive collection or several thousands to drop on buying cards.
Fun fact, in Italy that dish is called panzerotto (or panzarotto) so if we go by the original name of the dish the deck should be called panze (or panza, that in dialect means belly)
Wow! That Wurmcoil turnaround in Match 3 was something else! Good luck/draws and good sequencing on your end brought victory out of the jaws of defeat.
10:21 Seth, a bit of a lesson. If you have a Seasoned Pyromancer and no cards in hand it's usually better to play it first before drawing with the one ring.
48:30 You should have played Bloodbraid Elf before combat for 3 extra damage. Then they’d have been left at 3 life after you attacked into their Sheoldred next turn, and you could potentially kill them with Lightning Bolt if you respond to them activating the One Ring.
One point to be made for slamming bauble in every deck is that it's uncommon. And it kinda decreases the size of your deck, so if you craft 4 of it every deck can have 4 less cards, that can potentially be a lot of wildcards not spent. It's kinda dumb, but i'd probably do it if i hadn't stopped playing arena, since i like trying out a bunch of wierd decks
Been watching several of your videos lately. Great content. I've been playing MTG on and off since 93/94. I started with Unlimited. That being said you just thought ME about Ponza. And reminded me in several other videos of decks I really hated playing against. Frickin Turbo Fog. That deck in particular always felt like I'd get it on my next draw. Hated that passive aggressive deck. Thank you for the content and lessons.
I have been playing ponza for a week now. So glad I finally got to cast blood moon in arena. Oh man it is so fun. First modern deck I ever made. Just need a inferno titan or two. Love getting to those
This is such an interesting archetype to explore in timeless. Wondering if it’s worth reconfiguring the deck to make Jegantha a companion. Also, surprised you are not playing Minsc. It’s one of the strongest cards in the format…
I'm italian and i only now realize that "ponza" Is really the "panzerotto" a typical dish from south Italy (where i'm from). I thought It was Just a name the creator came up with randomly 'cause It sounds fun.
37:14 Match 3 game 2. That wasn'T over, was it? Play the Sprawl and Fable, block the monkey with the Fable token and take 6 in the air down to 4. (Deathrite potentially down to 2.) Next turn draw a card, loot 2 with the Fable. Those were 3 draws to get the Brothershood. Not good chances but it wasn't over yet. Or am I missing something?
Btw, for those who are not familiar, with Italian “ponza rotta” is a pun on the Italian name of that “dish” which is actually called “panzerotto” because of its shape which makes it look like a “belly” (panza/pancia = belly) so that type of food looks like a small belly somehow.
Christmas came a week early this year - Seth is playing Ponza again! God I love Ponza. WotC has really shied away from land destruction and resource denial strategies in recent years, and it's so heartwarming to see it working as a policeman for boring "goodstuff" piles with greedy manabases and as a safety valve for combo decks. G5M3 was the perfect Ponza plan in action and it really soothed my soul.
40:09 why bolt the Bowmaster instead of Lurrus? Opponent is obviously going to replay it which he does. I'm failing to understand the strategy behind this decision.
I think it's beautiful how the name of the deck comes from the phonetic spelling in English of an Italian dish called "Panzerotto" which became Ponza Rotto.
00:46 So, the name Ponza comes from the Italian pizza-like pie called "panzerotto", which was wrongly called "Ponza Rotta" by Jimmy's Grotto! I got this because I'm Italian, e mi piacciono i panzerotti!
Ponza is the obvious solution to fire design. Doesn’t matter what the card says if it can’t be cast. The problem is if wizards ever realized this, within a year we’ll get “two and a red, destroy target land, draw a card, and make a treasure”
5:30 Its been crazy to start with Seth never saying Brotherhood's End correctly and somehow only getting worse over time. He's now just putting the 's' literally anywhere other than where it is written. Soon he will be playing Sbrothsershood Sends.
I wonder if Bloodbraid is better than Geological Appraiser. I know haste is big but not needed green and not being forced into casting the card seems good
Hey, I know AsianAvenger just did a goyf video for standard, but now that Tarkir has hit historic and historic brawl (or just brawl now??) now has the perfect commander for goyfs, with Sidisi, do you have any plans to take another crack at that deck?
I haven't had time to watch this yet, but MAN am I excited for it. Commander has been my main and really only format for a good few years now, but before that, Modern was my bread and butter, and Ponza was PROBABLY one of my favorite decks to use. Gifts Storm was also really fun, but if I didn't want to use my brain at all, Ponza was just some GOOD CLEAN FUN >:D I don't know what this format is, and I don't know how closely it will resemble ye olden Ponza of Modern, but I don't really care. I'm here for it. I want Blood Moons, and I want some kind of Stone Rains. Is there an Inferno Titan? It's fine if there's not, but also there should be. Now to carve out some time to actually watch this dang thing :p
I could live with watching Timeless. But if Richard's Modern Abzan is as legit as he says and fair Magic is back in Modern the I'd be willing to watch Modern again.
Why did you not remove the Lurrus in the last game of match 3? Did you think it was like a commander and it would come back? It doesn't work like that, companion is a one time ability.
Growing up is realising Seth was the villain all along and Crim was just a tame grixis enjoyer
He plays some dirty stuff then covers it up with against the odds
Anyone playing Ragavan doesn't deserve lands 😜
It's honestly so mind-boggling to me that the dude who looks like the jolly St. Nicholas of MTG is actually just fucking Krampus 😂

Sameeeeee
How to make a successful new format: let Seth play Blood Moon
That's the main reason I love Timeless so much.

At least he doesn’t put an s on end.
He’s just borrowing it from Dragon’s Rage Channeller.
no, he won't

I don’t know if it’s just this video, but based on the decks you keep playing against, this format seems very homogeneous.
I'm confused when Seth has the bolt in hand, knows that if he kills the Bowmasters it is just coming back, looks at Lurrus with its 2 toughness, and says "Well, gotta kill that Bowmasters." Lurrus also has lifelink?? To me, that is the biggest threat.

Yea at any point he could have killed Lurrus and turned on Klothys super easily to beat with, misplay every single turn lol.
I also wondered the same thing, especially as he drew into another lightning bolt a bit later
He makes misplays all the time nonstop, how is that one so surprising lol
I think he wanted to hit Brotherhood's End and dont take damage from the Bowmaster. Seems very greedy

"brothers who'd end"
Timeless has been exactly what i wanted from a format on arena!
Just need some more classics like birds, survival, oath of druids, grim monolith, etc and it'd be even better.
"Brothershood's Ends"

Yeah, Modern Ponza was more or less what i modeled the deck on.
@@MTGGoldfish I figured. And it works!
Ponza Rotta from Jimmy's Grotto truly is legendary! Fully worth naming a deck after.

Those were a few pretty entertaining games. Thanks!

This is such an interesting archetype to explore in timeless. Wondering if it’s worth reconfiguring the deck to make Jegantha a companion. Also, surprised you are not playing Minsc. It’s one of the strongest cards in the format…
My greatest motivation to become a Magic pro player is to name my deck Döner. Greetings from Germany
As a Wisconsinite, ponzas are amazing
The other big brain Brainstorm play I love is Brainstorm in response to hand attacks and tuck safely away key cards to draw at a later time
Also save brainstorms for when you’re getting your hand attacked. You can protect important combo pieces by hiding them on the top of your deck.
Seth screaming Ragavan takes me back the the flash player days of StrongMad on Homestarrunner.
I'm italian and i only now realize that "ponza" Is really the "panzerotto" a typical dish from south Italy (where i'm from). I thought It was Just a name the creator came up with randomly 'cause It sounds fun.
you know, a turn 1 ragavan also lets you cast moon or stone rain on turn 2...
Ponza, jund and Dredge were my first modern decks back in 2012 I played i never left modern since.
37:14 Match 3 game 2. That wasn'T over, was it?
Play the Sprawl and Fable, block the monkey with the Fable token and take 6 in the air down to 4. (Deathrite potentially down to 2.)
Next turn draw a card, loot 2 with the Fable.
Those were 3 draws to get the Brothershood. Not good chances but it wasn't over yet. Or am I missing something?
Btw, for those who are not familiar, with Italian “ponza rotta” is a pun on the Italian name of that “dish” which is actually called “panzerotto” because of its shape which makes it look like a “belly” (panza/pancia = belly) so that type of food looks like a small belly somehow.
Christmas came a week early this year - Seth is playing Ponza again!
God I love Ponza. WotC has really shied away from land destruction and resource denial strategies in recent years, and it's so heartwarming to see it working as a policeman for boring "goodstuff" piles with greedy manabases and as a safety valve for combo decks.

Oh thats crazy. I went to university where Jimmy's Grato is, love me a Ponza.
The games pretty good show why I don't play Arena anymore. You pretty much play against the same few decks. We need more people like you experimenting
I think it's beautiful how the name of the deck comes from the phonetic spelling in English of an Italian dish called "Panzerotto" which became Ponza Rotto.
game 3 was absolute insanity. Really creative play was needed to win that, I definitely didnt see the line to win there
39:20 I don't understand why he wouldn't get Chalice here. Op just showed that 90% of his non-lands are 1 drops.
i could see a 1-1 split of ruinblaster and bonecrusher or evan a cut of ruinblasters just to have a little bit more removal and for chalice purposees
The old bolt-my-own-life-total move, spicy
00:46 So, the name Ponza comes from the Italian pizza-like pie called "panzerotto", which was wrongly called "Ponza Rotta" by Jimmy's Grotto!
I got this because I'm Italian, e mi piacciono i panzerotti!
Seth getting double Ragavand is clip-worthy stuff.

Karn turning off Ragavan treasures as well is an unintended benefit of Ponza for sure 😂
missed the opertunity to run sundering titan in the karn board! in the fetchland forma you can tag 3-4 lands often and it's a basic killer
Good job winning with Karn, i hope you're proud of yourself :p
I wonder if Bloodbraid is better than Geological Appraiser. I know haste is big but not needed green and not being forced into casting the card seems good
Land destruction decks will ALWAYS be beautiful. Very unconventional and headache-inducing. ❤️
So timeless is basically 90% Bowmaster/DRC/Ragavan. Exciting format.
Hey, I know AsianAvenger just did a goyf video for standard, but now that Tarkir has hit historic and historic brawl (or just brawl now??) now has the perfect commander for goyfs, with Sidisi, do you have any plans to take another crack at that deck?

I want Blood Moons, and I want some kind of Stone Rains. Is there an Inferno Titan? It's fine if there's not, but also there should be. Now to carve out some time to actually watch this dang thing :p
Why is this deck not on Ragavan? It’s effectively better dork than halfling in many situations
I couldn't click this video fast enough! Stone Rain is my name and LD is my game lol!!!
Isn’t the new 4 mana discover 3 on etb better in this deck? I understand it lacks haste but you can copy it with fable backside.
You grinding out someone named emrys is very fitting lol
This video's a year old so I doubt I'll get a response, but would it be better to play Deathrite Shaman in the deck somewhere?
“People see red when they see land destruction” - yes, that is the colour of a lot of land destruction spells.
why bolt the bowmaster instead of lurus? like that seemed like a waste removal. what am I not seeing?
Loved your RDW vids back when the deck was good, hype for this one.
Yay Ponza! My favorite back in the day.
I quit magic in 2022 but check in once in a blue moon (blood moon in this case). What is Timeless?
Why didn't he killed the Lurrus on match 3???? Please someone explain? I think I am missing something.
My favourite series: making zoomers rage quit.
Instead of Bolt the Bird, now it's Bolt the Monkey
Brother....hood's...end :)
Isn’t brainstorm also good against discard by letting you protect/hide some of your hand?
I could live with watching Timeless. But if Richard's Modern Abzan is as legit as he says and fair Magic is back in Modern the I'd be willing to watch Modern again.
Why did you not remove the Lurrus in the last game of match 3? Did you think it was like a commander and it would come back? It doesn't work like that, companion is a one time ability.
Gotta thank you Seth, now this is all over the ladder :c
