Colossal Dreadmaw might actually be my least favorite MTG card ever just because of how blatant it was to have that and Carnage Tyrant in the same set, it's become the face of "we're too lazy to make interesting cards even though that's our only job so we just printed strictly worse filler garbage at lower rarities instead" design. This always turns into a debate with NWO limited apologists though so I'll just leave it at that.
So I'm actually quite late to this video. As it turns out, today I embraced my inner Brachiosaurus and was quite slow to reach this video. While we don't know much about dinosaur locomotion due to them being millions of years old, it is estimated that due to their sheer size the Brachiosaurus was among the slowest of all dinosaurs. It seems like barely any of these dinosaurs managed to do anything once they rotated out of standard. I guess they become extinct before they could see play in Vintage. Speaking of, do "Top 10 Vintage Cards (Minus Power 9)".
Especially true if you've got a Zacama or Gishath Deck, you might well already have a Ghalta and will certainly have a lot of the staples Ghalta needs to work well. Makes constructing a deck cheaper and easier.
PavarottiAardvark Zacama isn’t the best for dinosaur tribal though, he’s a very ramp-based commander that can just win with his abilities if you have enough mana. Mayael, Gishath, and Atla are the best Dino tribal commanders (imo)
@@thefunniestvalentine4789 This is true, I'm kinda biased though, I find the best way to get fun out of budget commander is to have spare commanders available so you can change up how a deck plays. So I mostly have a Gishath Deck, with a Zacama sleeved up and ready for a a change of pace.
PavarottiAardvark oh I completely agree, I just built a mono black deck with K’rrik at the helm, but I packed in 8 alternate commanders, so I intend on switching them out frequently
When I saw this video in my feed, I got so excited. Dinosaurs are what got me into Magic when Ixalan was releasing. My first mythic pull was Gishath, and that become the commander of my first deck. This is still my favorite tribe, and I really hope we see more dinosaurs (especially legendary ones) in the future. Thanks for making this video!
@@aluksus9327 Because oddly enough, izzet isnt focused on counterspells. They just want to play spells of some sort and gain bonus advantage. They are the opposite of pure blue, because they try to play the game instead of... Well, trying to make it to turn 7 with no non-land permanents on either side.
M20 has to go down as the most powerful core set ever right? We got so many cards that either are competitive in eternal formats or banned outright, cards like: Sorin, Imperious Bloodlord Veil of Summer (Banned in Standard, Pioneer & Historic) Chandra, Awakened Inferno Leyline of Abundance (Banned in Pioneer) Rotting Regisaur Field of the Dead (Banned in Standard, Pioneer & Historic) Risen Reef Empyrean Eagle Golos, Tireless Pilgrim (Banned in Brawl) Knight of the Ebon Legion Spectral Sailor And that's not including strong reprints like Leyline of the Void , Leyline of Sanctity, Steel Overseer, etc. There might be stronger core sets out there, but I can't think of any off the top of my head getting several banned cards in Standard (and so quickly at that) on top of viable eternal format play.
M11 is in the conversation, if you include reprints. The Titans, Bolt, Baneslayer Angel, Preordain, Mana Leak, Squadron Hawk, BoP, Steel Overseer, the Leylines, Fauna Shaman, Obstinate Baloth, and a decent cycle of enemy colour hosers.
Rotting Regisaur has been great in my Meren EDH. I think Enrage in general is a cool ability that I would like to see again on other things that are inherently ''ragey'' like Orc's, Goblins.
I love rotating regisaur so much and I'm glad he has a home in current standard mono-black aggro. Completely shuts down mono-red by himself as they can hardly ever get around that huge body.
Just finished getting stomped by my friend's dino deck a few hours ago, and this comes out! Hopefully you'll cover Wurms soon, and give some love to the best boys around. (we're just happy for a 6/6 trample for 6, none of this "cant be countered nonsense")
If we do see a Wurm's video, I can already tell you one card that will be on that list, and that's Sandwurm Convergence from Amonkhet. An enchantment that for 2G and 6 nets you a 5/5 Wurm token at each of your end steps and prevents creatures with flying from attacking you or Planeswalkers you control. Maybe that was just the meta where I was playing and nowhere else, but I can't tell you how many times I thought I had a game in the bag, only for that thing to show up and absolutely ruin me. I never could have enough Fatal Push to get rid of them all.
@@Imabirdhaww When my opponents are really good with Simic for both ramp and counter spells, I couldn't do much. I've always had problems fighting that, since I almost always ran Izzet or Grixis without bounce spells. Once I started running into that though, I learned very quickly to just run lots and lots of counter, kill, and destroy stuff. Basically I had to become a "no fun" player for a while once that point came about.
I love coming back to watch all the Top 10's I've missed. Seeing Nezahal makes me want to see a Top 10 list for Control Finishers. Big creatures that have some form of protection or can protect themselves or make themselves really difficult to remove like Ætherling.
Holy crap !! No Galtah ???Thats the best one imho .. You can have him out turn 3 with the raptor hatchling / marauding raptor combo . Hard to believe he’s not been played more than that . I’m really shocked no joke . Figured he would have been top 2 or 3 at least
Takes me right back to my beloved Enrage-Deck. You couldve given an honorable shoutout to Forerunner of the Empire which was my fav card for a long time, but i understand why he doesnt belong to the list. Hopefully Ikoria will feature more dinosaur behemoths
You just have to be carefull otherwise you may draw the game, becaus Marauding would be clonning Polyraptor to the end of times, and the universe would be a huge mass of Polyraptors hahahaha
Hey Nizzahon, I love your top tens and I don't miss a single one! Have you ever considered making some EDH top 10s? I would personally enjoy them very much, since I'm more interested to EDH than to competitive Magic. Anyway keep up the good work! :-)
Valerio he has some... in a way. Some of his “worst xxxx cards in magic” videos don’t really have a way to gauge how bad they are. EDH usually plays bad cards for synergies so some of his lists are based off what isn’t being played in EDH.
Awesome list for sure. Maybe its just me, but ghalta was in my meta everywhere, and I was honestly shocked when he wasn't on here even as a low rank lol. That just goes to show you just because the card is popular doesnt mean it does well on the pro circuit.
Fireball? Pfft, get that week sauce out of here. You go with Banefire, as a nice big "F*ck you!" to the blue mage with the counter spell deck. Or, why pick just one player to kill? Use Comet Storm and destroy the entire table at once.
Ferocidon didn't need to be banned. Hazoret, Ahn-Crop Crasher, that 2 CMC Jackal that did the same, those were the real reason that deck was busted. But Ferocidon got the boot because they couldn't admit printing Hazoret was a mistake.
Good list but no mention of Zacama, Gishath or Zetalpa, Primal Dawn which are commander cards was a misnomer. "Oh by the way there's these 3 beasts from commander." Something like that. My Dino Commander deck is my favorite. I'm biased.
Being banned should have a point value. Sure, that might be hard to objectively quantify, but in a list of best cards, "being too good to be allowed to continue in the format" should count for *something*.

You're like the Bookworm Adventure's Deluxe guy
I know he’s not on this list, but Ghalta can be a fun, nasty EDH Commander. Basically, 2 mana cost commander that is a threat for commander damage.

Alternate title: top ten magic cards of all time
6:55 Hey to be fair, I don't think anyone likes blue mages.
Dang blue players, running magic for all of us. Everyone hates them, red players, black players, blue players.
Blue players - none likes, red players - none likes, Izzet guild - theyre so nice and balanced

I think that speaks less to its power and more to WotC poor balance team ability.
2019 was the year of broken shit that should never have been printed.
Really surprised ghalta didn't make it
Rampaging Ferocidon is like…the most emblematic mono red card ever. So wonderful
before I watch this I just want to say, dinosaurs are my favorite creature type and I've been waiting for this for a long while.
I love using Shifting Ceratops. Messes with my friends every time they try to use blue decks on me
Rotting Regisaur has been great in my Meren EDH. I think Enrage in general is a cool ability that I would like to see again on other things that are inherently ''ragey'' like Orc's, Goblins.
My Top Favorite Dinosaurs
1. Parasaurolophus
2. Brachiosaurus
3. Iguanodon
4. Olorotitan
5. Maiasaura
6. Tyrannosaurus rex
7. Spinosaurus
8. Chasmosaurus
9. Styracosaurus
I love rotating regisaur so much and I'm glad he has a home in current standard mono-black aggro. Completely shuts down mono-red by himself as they can hardly ever get around that huge body.
I'm glad that Rotting Regisaur made this list mostly because I got into a huge argument about his playability
A 7/6 on turn 3? Definite playability. He’s in black too, so you get a lot of value from grave

Dude, there are like 25 cards with this creature type... most of them vanilla creatures

Wow, this must have been uploaded just a few minutes ago. I really like your vids!
"The only blue dinosaur to make the list." Also the only blue dinosaur
I believe you have underestimated Rotting Regisaur, good sir!!
Thrasta is not quite yet released but I would not be surprised if it shows up when this top 10 is revisited
Awesome list for sure. Maybe its just me, but ghalta was in my meta everywhere, and I was honestly shocked when he wasn't on here even as a low rank lol. That just goes to show you just because the card is popular doesnt mean it does well on the pro circuit.
He has 3 points, so not too far from the list.
would love a new " top ten most flavourfull cards"
Out of curiosity, have you done a video on top trolls in mtg? Be curious to see what features on that list.
M20 seems like it was low key obsessed with just efficient green creatures
Anyone else flex the Zacama, temur sabertooth, fireball? Just me? Aight
Fireball? Pfft, get that week sauce out of here. You go with Banefire, as a nice big "F*ck you!" to the blue mage with the counter spell deck. Or, why pick just one player to kill? Use Comet Storm and destroy the entire table at once.
Dinosaurs are the BEST new creature type. They're so *EASY* to just slip into a set. "We need a big dumb stompy thing. GIANT LIZARD IT IS!"
not sure if its done before, but has there been a top 10 standard decks done before? like a specific deck/archetype.
Sentry is a pauper great card. If u ever include that.
Fungusaur will always be the first dinosaur in my heart.
Top 10 Underdogs. Vanilla Legendaries that have impacted Magic the most.
Top 10 Specters in the future hopefully
Ferocidon didn't need to be banned. Hazoret, Ahn-Crop Crasher, that 2 CMC Jackal that did the same, those were the real reason that deck was busted. But Ferocidon got the boot because they couldn't admit printing Hazoret was a mistake.
Carnage Tyrant, also known in limited as the Concedeasaurus.
Is this video before Regisaur Alpha came out? I'm wondering why he didn't make the list seeing as he allows other dinos to have haste.
I don’t know if you count legendaries but if you build a good Dino deck gishath is god tier
Greeting Timing actually in the process of building a Dino commander deck
Interestingly, Nezahal shouldn't have the dinosaur creature type, since that type of animals were marine lizards not dinosaurs.
"Come on now! Get on the floor! Everybody walk the dinosaur!~"
Idea for a video: Top 10 Tokens
This got released at 1 am in my time zone
These kids today with their collector numbers and their newfangled tap symbol. Twenty Black Lotuses and twenty Plague Rats. Now that’s real Magic.
20 black lotuses, 20 fireballs, and 20 channels is better

Please do a top 10 one mana aggro creatures
Ghalts or carnage tyrant are my gusses for #1

Zacama? Etali? Polyraptor? *GHALTA?!!!*
How many points does Ghalta, Primal Hunger have?
3
How about top 10 Oozes? Love the videos!
Yeah scavenging ooze being in th format means scavenger isn't gonna be getting a lot of points lol.
I personally love ghalta, primal hunger
Really really surprised I didn’t see regisaur alpha on this list tbh
1 point
Good list but no mention of Zacama, Gishath or Zetalpa, Primal Dawn which are commander cards was a misnomer. "Oh by the way there's these 3 beasts from commander." Something like that. My Dino Commander deck is my favorite. I'm biased.
He doesn't take commander into account when doing these top 10s since he only uses sanctioner tournaments and Commander isn't a sanctioned format
Fungusaur isn’t included since people are still trying to break it.

They should retroactively change allosaurus rider to have the dinosaur creature type as well imo
That would mean every knight on a horse needs horse as a creature type.
Nizzahon Magic I’m fine with that to be honest might make horses too powerful though lol
Carny T
OTG1988 a lot lower on the list than I was expecting. I thought it might be 1/2
It's funny, because taxonomically, dinosaurs aren't lizards. Lol So wizards were just correcting their ignorance.

I love dinosaurs.
And Carnage Tyrant is my favourite.
He is basically a giant, dino middle
finger to any control deck.
