@@Malacite na that would be esper. I remember when ravnica was still in standard, I made an esper deck that had clear the mind, lots of board wipes, counterspells, then both Ashiok and Narset. Did nothing but counter, wipe, exile, shut off tutor/draw then reset the deck till you ran out of cards.
Hurt people hurt people. I can't imagine what kind of pain someone has gone through to want to play this deck, but putting your pain onto someone else instead of dealing with it yourself is not the way to go about it.
Idk about you guys but I'm beginning to live for these cinematic masterpieces that have become Chris' intro's 😂 not to mention the conversations between himself are pretty epic.
CGB's favorite deck. Weirdly enough, adding 4 Shark Thyphoon turn this into an actual meta deck (8Shark), and who invented that deck needs to get countered in real life
the reason that countering the unsummon which would have bounced your shark was silly or not as good as letting it resolve was because the shark had the etb effect of countering a creature or artifact, so in fact he was doing you a favor.. by returning your countespell creature to your hand
I'm pretty sure "milling" your opponent by just sticking around long enough for them to naturally draw their entire deck is legally classified as torture and banned under the Geneva Convention.
Classic monoblue: "Cancel... Mystical Dispute... BAH! Back i my days your opponent couldnt even play anything in turn 2! Counterspell, Mana Leak, Counter Balance... Now that is TRUE control!"
Oh my... DARK LORD ! I Did something similar on paper circa 2005. It... did not end well for me... and my relationships. I was just seen as some kind of "no-man". But I guess that is what abjuration magic and blue/white magic are all about : protection, by denial.
Against the B/U, never play creatures. He will always have removal. Make him keep it in hand so he can't castle without killing himself. Scry for lands unless you are countering his spells.
Ultimate virigin strat. When I don't wanna play magic, I stay at home and play something else, rather than making sure my pals don't get to play it either. You didn't go to halo night and unplug the xbox repeatedly cause you don't feel like playing halo. What a world we live in eh? Crazy.
Welcome to another episode of "How to lose your friends"
'How I lost your mother'
Nah, mono blue is definitely annoying but Blue-White is the king of alienation. Azorious is literally the fun police, lol :/

@@goolabbolshevish1t651 agree about esper good thing about playing against it when it was t1 was I learned how to beat control
And the comedy award 2020 is goiiiinnnng tooo: Chris Darklord for his incredible performance in "The Intro"
Hurt people hurt people. I can't imagine what kind of pain someone has gone through to want to play this deck, but putting your pain onto someone else instead of dealing with it yourself is not the way to go about it.
I'm a huge berserk fan and the biggest smile came across my face the second I heard it!
Idk about you guys but I'm beginning to live for these cinematic masterpieces that have become Chris' intro's 😂 not to mention the conversations between himself are pretty epic.
LUL That Susumu Hirasawa at the start! Given me Berserk flash backs from the 90's
CGB's favorite deck.
Weirdly enough, adding 4 Shark Thyphoon turn this into an actual meta deck (8Shark), and who invented that deck needs to get countered in real life
It was cgb lmao
@@Chubbies34 8Shark i think was a deck before CGB made a video on it
Blame DoggertQBones, he wrote an article on it last month (at the time it was designed as an Omnath-killer): mtgazone.com/dimir-control-deck-guide/
Difference is the Dark Lord is far more entertaining.
The intro is my lifeblood, my lord!
m'lord
The moment before the music started I thought "damn, this would be a perfect setup for Guts' theme." The dark lord does not disappoint.
Oh, this is dark... Darker than everything you've made up until this point. I salute you.
Best intros in the entire MTGA content creator community! By far! No competition! The best.
Now I wanna see Mono Blue Magic vs CovertGoBlack
Yes please
the reason that countering the unsummon which would have bounced your shark was silly or not as good as letting it resolve was because the shark had the etb effect of countering a creature or artifact, so in fact he was doing you a favor.. by returning your countespell creature to your hand
Oh my Lord a single Shark Typhoon could be hilarious in this deck
This is pure evil!
That lip-twitching in the intro was glorious.
lol when Guts's theme kicks in... amazing. well done sir.
I had to watch this this intro twice.. Absolutely amazing!
A kanuter-spell-slinger never plays his one last card. A cardinal sin.
29:00 : why do you not take the Crawling Barrens ???.
Oh man, the Guts theme from Berserk, you're a man at my own heart . That alone deserves a like.
You are the best god damn MTG RUclipsr that has ever blessed this planet.
Tick up the clock my man, you're killing me. So many decks with clock, so many turns passed with mana up for clock counters.
YES! "Gatzu" theme" locked and loaded. Lets do this Dark Lord.
Literally watching Hunter Hunter now. Thanks for the great content as always!
The intro alone was enough to get an instant like lol, great stuff.
You got the power and started to counter unsummons... yah. Science!
I'm pretty sure "milling" your opponent by just sticking around long enough for them to naturally draw their entire deck is legally classified as torture and banned under the Geneva Convention.
Beautiful beautiful beautiful intros Chris! Got me dying!
Your intros are supposed to make me laugh, not shed a tear from the beauty! Great content as always Dark Lord
I love berserk. I cried when I heard it. Love your channel!
Best intro ever - pure gold!
This is pure beauty!
The intro song it was a soundtrack from Berserk, the soundtrack name is Guts
The Intro had me dying dude. So funny
Aww man... you need to do a Necromentia + Ashiok's Erasure deck to just shut off all your opponent's wincons
Classic monoblue: "Cancel... Mystical Dispute... BAH! Back i my days your opponent couldnt even play anything in turn 2! Counterspell, Mana Leak, Counter Balance... Now that is TRUE control!"
Funniest intro ever. Thanks for your vids Chris
petition to have the chill lofi beat run through the gameplay section
yooo! berzerk love! always good to see it. and a hunter x hunter shout out too. fine taste my good sir. 👍
29:22 i don't get why you didn't keep your land to make him think you draw a counter
"I don't want you to bounce my creature that has flash and costs 5, so I'll pay 4 and discard a counterspell."
Ho man! I love ur work, gracias señor! U make better this time :")
Oh my... DARK LORD ! I Did something similar on paper circa 2005. It... did not end well for me... and my relationships. I was just seen as some kind of "no-man". But I guess that is what abjuration magic and blue/white magic are all about : protection, by denial.
ok. that just might get in to top 5 intros.. at least top 10. very nice. really makes me want to re-visit the ashiok's erasures for every card theme.
What would be your personal selection for the top 5 intros? ^^
That horse that draws cards would be hilarious
That intro has confirmed MBM as a true man of culture. Since you seemed to have gone through your poetry, can we get anime discussions during afks?
The counterspell montage 😁👍
Very funny to play with this deck and nice video :)
Lol I was preping to ask if that opening music was from Berserk but then you confirmed it was for me.
Great song selection, and yes even if Guts it's kinda berserk some times goes full control counter attack
I keep telling my friend who plays white blue "This is not how you make friends" and "You know you are just playing solitaire at this point"
Against the B/U, never play creatures. He will always have removal. Make him keep it in hand so he can't castle without killing himself. Scry for lands unless you are countering his spells.
Golden years, how I miss those days
I played this a little bit ago and it's as majestic as the intro to this video
Clicked for the awesome title- my dad's favourite saying
this man is a weeb of my own heart
I would have included 4 Brazen Borrowers, so you can bounce some of the faster spells and you would have an additional win con.
Love the Bonfire of Dreams from Berzerk.
the intros are so worth it
*Happy Baral, Chief of Compliance noises*
my wincon too is a turn 5 overwhelmed apprentice
Now thats an Intro!
This has made my evening :)
this deck is a thing of beauty
Ultimate virigin strat. When I don't wanna play magic, I stay at home and play something else, rather than making sure my pals don't get to play it either.

"Because I've learned that platonic love can exist between two grown men."
Bromance
Love berserk. Thanks Chris!!
The Guts song from Berserk, amazing Dark Lord !
ahh I see you are a man of culture as well. Waiting for your anime intro next lol.
Oh that's beautiful intro, Dark Lord
"Meta barons" a graphic novel series from france by jodorowski is berserk in space i recomend it! Its published in english idk about orhers.
one of the more fun decks ive played in a while
LMAO your intros are awesome
I think Brazen Borrower could take the place of cancel. It would add another win con, and get rid of permanents that resolve too early.
@ 13:50, didn’t he have lethal?
mono black magic is mtg arena original decks but they actually take the game seriously.
29:15 he scryd both to the bottom... then said he didn't get anything, the creature land and a counter
If you manage to sneak in a Wavebreak Hippocamp, it replaces your counterspells. :P
Buddy you work white in for the wrath stuff, and you got a chance against aggro too. Some of it out there right now anyway.
You did it. Standard Seinfeld. It's done.
best intro to date
You gotta listen to hisrasawa susumu’s other music if you liked his song from berserk, its really an experience
You should throw in brazen borrow to just have some extra board presence and/or bounce a permanent
Did I see a thorn mammoth in that first game? I never knew that card existed.
I see you want others to struggle as Guts when playing against counterspells
Ah yes, the best win condition: ragequit
I've built a deck similar for modern and it has all the draw power it's is exactly like the intro when I did it
I need more matches with this deck
I think at this point chris should make a compilation of intros
Berserk intro, good content incoming ^^
Thasas Oracle + magic mirror makes this deck beyond broken
You get countered! You get countered! She gets countered! Everybody gets countered!
A God Pharoah statue would fit this pretty well AND poke away at their life points while choking their mana supply (just a bit.)🤔
Beautiful 👀😻 🙏🏼🖤
That deck feels like when I'm playing my Augustin EDH xD
So adorable deck 🥺🥺
Berserk is my favorite anime of all time.
I was going to sub anyway, but with that intro i just had to do that right know. Also this deck is disgusting.
the dark lord becomes Griffith
'Its the same with hunterxhunter' huzzah, a man of quality
