Lantern control is just... weird. I played Dimir Froculus against them in a league recently and they kept trying to lock me out but literally a single resolved Psychic Frog just ended the game. Its like they're expecting you to put 10 good cards and 30 terrible cards they don't mind you drawing into your deck and thats just not what decks look like now. They can barely let me draw my lands(otawara/sink into stupor/fetching into a surveilland) without it screwing them over.
Sounds like you'd enjoy cEDH more than casual Commander, Spike. The difference in mindset in both building and playing make for really interesting games
Great deck and very entertaining games! If I might share an observation and a little advice. Slow down your play just a fraction, take a breath and you won't make these misclicks nearly as often. A pattern on this channel is playing at anxiety speed and being ahead on clock but making a substantial number of UI mistakes / misclicks. You're always significantly ahead on the clock because you've mastered the game and the software, so you can afford to slow it down a little and make purposeful selections when it matters most. Much love.
Walkers enter with counters, they don't passively have counters. You make shifting a copy of grist, it becomes a walker with no loyalty counters and dies as a statebased check
If counterspell doesn't make the cut, why not try Dovin's veto sideboard at least? Also you should bring back your agadeems crypt deck to see how it goes in new meta...
You could have given the last opponent the truth, instead of GG, aka "Dude... I miss clicked..." 😆 (I get that you are talking to chat, and your fingers just doing autopilot reply to the opponent hehe)
Good ol’ “Thousand Tricks” Spike, unintentionally crushing his opponents’ dreams. 😂

Normally they would play some other stax pieces like Bridge to blank a bunch of your cards like Frog
i mean normally u get bridged and cannot attack
This is my favorite post-ban Spike video so far!
Arena of Glory with Phlage is such a nice combo
Spike has such a mirthless laugh... like a hyena
Sorin the Mirthless

I was thinking of playing looting in eldrazi to discard cards for emrakul promised end and kozileks return/ ugin's labyrinth for the graveyard effect

Spike 6 months before twin is unbanned "Its going to be fringe playable" People 2 weeks after unban "Wait! It's only fringe playable!"
Why jolted awake instead of just Helping Hand?
For energy syngergy presumably
It cycles
We are literally playing wrath of the skies
Helping hand is just strictly worse no?
@@senseiromaji7918 Given that we're playing Oculus, no
I dont understand what happens between shifting woodlamd copying grist in the gy

@helioscomis3732 oh thnks! the land is already in play. With a creature being copied it would have been much faster to see it.
This is so cool

Never didn’t have it
Hot take
Lantern control is just the delver of deck burn decks
Rather than just trying to burn your deck, it attempts to disrupt while doing so
why not play bauble
No DRC, no artifact recursión, no breach, no urza's saga. Why play bauble?
