@@covertgoblue Why not add Athreos, Shrouded Veil (tappedout.net/mtg-card/athreos-shroud-veiled/) to the deck as it works perfectly with all of this as well. It's Black, White so aligns with the Decks Colors. The key reason why he is a great fit is that you are now able to add a Coin counter to the any creature that had a Flying Counter on it from the Luminous Broodmoth. So the first time it a creature dies it triggers Luminous Broodmoth and returns it to the battlefield with the flying counter. You then use Athreos to add a coin counter on the now flying creature and can once again sacrifice it but now unlike before when it had a flying counter on it the creature didn't trigger the Luminous Broodmoth it now will trigger the Coin on it meaning it returns with no Flying counter as this is removed when it dies and resets the whole mechanism again.
Good to know, nice deck btw, cgb may not like the shark typhoon but it seems like a nice inclusion, an enchantment you can discard to make a creature, draw a card and reanimate later is pretty cool.
Hmmm, why not Kroxa though? Really cheap, hits the hand, potentialy a lot more damage, can make 2 foods if you respond the sac with the oven, aaand if you have the moth, he does all of it twice. You even said that some footlight fiends could be cut for something else. Even if escaping him is pretty much impossible, he just adds so much to the deck that I think he has a place in it.
I love when you have an enchantment where you don't get counters - creaturs come back to the battlefied without the flying counter, so they can die over and over and keep coming back
This may sound kinda cringy, but I'm into mtg (mostly paper) since December. Starting with pre-made planeswalker-decks and a deck-builders-box and no idea how to build your own decks, what cards are actually good etc. after watching all the CGB stuff i feel a lot more "in the meta"...and i banished all my weird black/white-one trick pony-decks...
For the algorithm! Have you considered Bastion of Rememberance? It being an enchantment means most board wipes can't get rid of it. Plus it comes with a free 1/1 token.
14:51 - Matches like this, particularly CGB's decision making, discussion of multiple play lines and overall prescience are what originally attracted me to this channel. It reminds me of Kripparian's "One Hit Point Matters" series of Hearthstone videos and helped me understand the meta matchups in cardgames. I realize that these sorts of games are necessarily only a percentage of the games that are played, but they're the ones that I value watching the most.
Pausing the video after the game vs Lurrus Orzhov enchantments to say WOW that was such a good game. I really enjoy watching you play. The way you work through each move and explain to us what your thought process is helps a lot. Thank you for your great content every day! I just started watching a couple weeks ago and you're already one of my favorite channels.
11:00 was loose, especially with them light on lands. While the play in game still ended up winning, it would've been better to wrath the opponent's board by playing Mayhem Devil with open lands, then activating the Priest killing their Celebrant with Devil triggers. You then get to sweep their board with Mayhem Devil, Priest, and two Cats on board, eliminating the need for the untapped land draw and letting you play the second cat immediately. You end up with a tapped Priest and oven and they get a food from it, but it cuts off their mana better (leaving them with 2 mana and no Priest activation). It's not like it was a huge mistake, but it would be one of those times where the chess engine evaluates your play as an 'inaccuracy'. This isn't a dig, sacrifice decks without Lurrus as a companion are probably the second most difficult tier decks to play after Temur Adventures in this format and I don't blame you for missing the line or trying to maximize mana usage. It just seemed like the line in-game was weird right after you mentioned how they were stuck on mana.
Thank you for being a decent human being. The way you handle the commentary for that deck with dance is one reason why I tune in everyday. I need a reminder that some persons aren't bitter asshats.
Have you considerd a build very similar to this one but with yorion as companion allowing you to reset flying counters and trigger etbs from any cards you add, like arya, or your own oath of Kaya?
Wow CGB, that 3rd game against the Orzhov Aura deck was epic. I don't know how many people would've been able to win that game. That was some amazing game play on your part. Well done.
Drop footlight fiend for call of the death dweller - if you use that to bring back Mayhem Devil it will get a deathtouch counter and you can clear keruga/fires boards with that
“Let’s cast Broodmoth, see if they counter it” Haha, imagine, counter magic being playable in this format, when we have Tef3 as like the most played non-land in the format.
no where near the power level of this deck but I just inserted broodmoth into the free orzhov deck arena gives you and it is such a bomb lol. Think of a Black/White afterlife deck where you sacrifice for life gain and damage and get to do it 2x with broodmoth's effect.
@@jackalope_hunter yes you got your spirit and your creature with flying back, orzhov Decks like this are very funny and Great, the thing is that you cant Play a companion.
I'm fairly new to mtg but find your videos entertaining and saw something that made me question the rulings. I'd like to know why at 25:16 it's possible that when you did sac the Cauldron Familiar in the blockers step that it cancels the declared attacker's attack animation?
That's because whenever an attacking creature becomes blocked (in the appropriate phase, obviously) it won't do any damage to the attacked player/planeswalker, unless it has trample. That happens even when the creature which was blocking dies before calculating the damage
been running a similar deck for a while. But I am poor, so only one luminous moth and using Nightmare Shepherd instead. Also, Teysa. Also Bastion of Rememberance. Yeah, I have gone in full on Cruel Celebrant. I thought about including red, but I get manascrewed/manaflooded so fricking often, I don't want to add colour screw into the mix too.
You could combine luminous broodmoth with some cards that can't have counters on them and get an infinite sacrifice combo. There aren't any cards like that for arena but there are for other formats.
As we do a daily reading of comments on Twitch stream, interested to see if with a better mana base and extended card supply if this could work in historic
I main a doom deck and the key is letting it fizzle as fast as possible. Feeding doom just plays into their plan bc they will always have easy sac targets
I just had an idea. MtGA co-op historic speedrun. You and a friend duel each other, and try to win (either one of you) as fast as possible. No conceding.
Anybody tried Broodmoth with Anax? Might be difficult to have double red on 3 and double white on 4, but it could be interesting. Probably too slow for ranked play.
You could play Umori if you'd replace cat/oven with Serrated Scorpion and the Lampad of Death's Vigil, though I'm not sure that's better, resetting the flying counter on cat seems a lot better
Damn, 11:52 that auto tap though 😭 could have tapped mountain, swamp and the 2 white for the Moth and then played out both cats with the remaining black available.
I'm very glad this is the deck you recommended to me after watching you play it. It looks very ridiculous and fun. I still have 4 rare creatures and 7 rare land to craft. I can't wait to play it. I wish I had it ready now since I got to tier 1 diamond by cycling. And I can't seem to get that elusive mythic, currently only 4 wins away. But I'm very optimistic I might be able to get there with this deck next season.
Interesting to see that Kroxa doesn't make the cut. I would have thought it's value in combination with the Broodmoth securing it a spot, also to have at least one Escape creature. I was wrong :-) Also wondering if Teysa could be a worthy addition - but probably not ;-)
I use moth with that doom creature. The one where it costs six mana and each opponent mills for and I can put one creature on the battlefield so as long as it's an even mana deck. That couple with the moth, I just mill the shit out of people
As much as I love Mardu, you can pretty much play the same deck as Rakdos with Nightmare Shepherd instead of Moth, Bastion of Remembrance instead of Celebrant, and Grim Initiate instead of Witness. This nets you a better manabase, a first striker against monored, and a more reliable Celebrant enchantment :/
funny story... I just watched CGB's video, and here I am wondering why this video is different than just any CGB video in black and white: and then I realized... RED!!!!!!!!!!!!
I mean, I don’t get how ‘winning more’ is a mistake haha. I like the idea, it lets them start applying pressure while at the same time putting things to sac to the Doom Foretold

Replace the Oven with a Lampad of Night's Vigil and you've got yourself an Umori deck. Added bonus: You aren't a cat oven deck anymore!

I had a match up agains someone who had a similar setup to cgb but with both titans, the idea is neat, but not effective in ranked
I love when you have an enchantment where you don't get counters - creaturs come back to the battlefied without the flying counter, so they can die over and over and keep coming back
You should replace footlight fiend with serrated scorpion
Possibly even Agent 🤔
or the Alseid to protect the Priest or to just sac for damage if the Devil's out?
Fiend can target creatures (especially things like fervent champion) and planeswalkers (Teferi after -3), and is easier to cast with R/B.

Saw your crippling chill and stitchers supplier play😂. Better lucky than good(or just be both)
Could you tell me the name of the track that plays at the start of your video's? Its really good.
I would expect Corpse Knight to round out this deck very nicely. Possibly as a replacement for Footlight Fiend.
Hi CGB, I love you content, every day I tune in! In these steal your stuff days...it is time to do a Trostani or hush bringer deck?
As we do a daily reading of comments on Twitch stream, interested to see if with a better mana base and extended card supply if this could work in historic
It doesn't have ulamog so it wouldn't be good in historic
What's the ideal starting hand or what are we shooting for ?

I just had an idea. MtGA co-op historic speedrun. You and a friend duel each other, and try to win (either one of you) as fast as possible. No conceding.
Wouldn't 2 Broodmoth and 2 Shepherd be better than four of either? Shepherd can return Broodmothed fliers.
Why not run that whopper 1 mana 1/1 deal2 heal 2?
Is it not better than footlight fiend in every way?
Love this build! Thanks CGB :)
Honestly in the beginning I liked other mtg channels better.... but CBG has grown on me a lot. Probs my fav now
Slot Kroxa and Yarok's spellunker.
Mothra is Mikaeus for 2 mana less, pure op-ness.
I like Luminous Broodmoth/Nightmare Shepherd together just because you get the chance to go through the sac cycles two times
nice deck really powerful maybe serrated scorpion would do more damage and provide defense againste 1/2 turns against mono red
Anybody tried Broodmoth with Anax? Might be difficult to have double red on 3 and double white on 4, but it could be interesting. Probably too slow for ranked play.
Isn't there an enchantment or something that causes all creatures to lose flying?
Spoiler alert: graceful flappy flapping by CGB. Prepare yourselves!
You can further evolve this idea by shoving yorion in to reset flying counters
God-Eternal Bontu plus Broodmoth is absolutely insane in sacrifice decks, should try it out! :D

this is the deck that i waiting for...thank you
Playing with this deck now. It's OP!
Sad truth, in any mirror between sacrifice, who has the devil wins. And i play orzhov D:
No obosh slotted in main deck? Im disappointed cbg

But then the cat waddle away, waddle waddle, until the very next day.
As I don't want to craft cards that are not surviving rotation I'll just replace Priests with Plagucrafters and call it good
Its sadly not the same Priest is a key card for every sac deck
I'm shocked there's no kroxa in this deck... it double triggers with broodmoth
Moth is the only mythic in the new set I don't have!
you certainely already considered it but include some nightmare shepperds could be greaat
I think this is really going to take off with the lurrus nerf
Evil CGB when?
Lol playing mythic right now (2 hrs after the video went up) and I've already seen this deck a couple of times
Yorion? less concisty for sure but...it is a companion tho
I like That you don’t like skyscrapers in magic
I'd love to see someone do well with this deck in a pro tournament lol!
I run this build but with less Broodmoths and with Teysa Karlov instead

I think Offspring's Revenge would be a nice splash -
No need to splash its Mardu
Thx for the video!
