my favorite part of these videos is seeing the absolutely awful decks people play against chris. the world's worst magic deckbuilders come out of the woodworks to fight him
If you look at the artwork for Doomsday Excruciator, it has 6 orbs surrounding it, 6 eyes, and 6 horns. Really love how Wizards went all in on the theme for this card!
I stopped playing magic a decade ago Fierce empath is the ONE card i recognize, since i had it in my elf deck. This was all Lorwyn & before; lots of token creation & tap untap shenanigans. Empath was there purely for the Kamahl grab should i need to find him to give stuff trample lol I miss 2010 and earlier magic...
@@bariltrailette he could play demonic counsel instead of fierce empath, it's one less mana, he doesn't have to reveal it and with delirium it IS a versatile tutor.
@@Qotsafan yes, exactly, instead of fierce empath. he still has to reveal it (to prove its a demon), but it is less mana. so unless you need empath as a blocker, its just better.
Chris, are you aware that there is a collection called 'Special Guest' and a card named 'Sacrifice'? (Instant - As an additional cost to cast this spell, sacrifice a creature. Add an amount of equal to the sacrificed creature's mana value.)
@@sirius1320Exiled cards are not a deck. Just like your hand is not your deck and your battlefield is not your deck. When the combo goes off, you can look through all the (zero) cards in your opponent's deck.
I was playing today and some dude did a three card move that searched his deck and layed all his creatures out and blasted me with 70 hits!!!! This all turn 3
Swamp Dark Ritual ×3 Alter of Dementia Doomsday Excruciator One turn wins are very, very rare. One turn wins that only require six cards? Making them possible on a mulligan? Practically unheard of.
6 minutes not considering your card in your hand, you literally spent one turn tutoring for both of your combo pieces right? Jeez "legacy"-lite sure is something. 4.5/7.3 is 61.64% so 6/10 or close to it. That's a decent rating for decent sleeves. 18:40 it's kind of disgusting, you are just eating these people, one after the other. Feels like it was pretty consistently turn fourish wins? That format needs some strong decks to fight it.
I know this channel is about popping off quickly and all, and that control is boring, but I think this deck actually is more awkward by trying to be so focused on getting there fast. The combo is a definitive win and tutors assure you to have it. But the focus on mana dorks makes it too vulnerable and the pretty much absence of a plan b also makes it worse. Also the curve kind of doesn't work. Of all the combos in this channel, this is the one that would be way better within a control or midrange shell.
RIP to the first dude who had, like, 300+ cards in their deck in order to not to be milled x)
mf showed up with a battle of wits deck and chris just brain drained the poor bastard
One often meets his destiny on the path to avoid it
All hail the matchmaker, that which punishes the righteous and well intended.
Last oppo had more cards. it takes a lot to exile all.
@BlackRoseImmortal75 they both had 250 cards. That's maximum on arena.

It is refreshing to see him get schnooned by a good deck every once in awhile. That red deck is a menace on the ladder.
lol, exactly
You have the best Arena content out there! Always look forward to more when the new set comes out
It's because his humor is obscure

4:07 The Room reference!
Thanks for getting Iron Maiden stuck in my head this morning Dark Lord lol.
Way better than the song that never ends I always sing it when I see my sister 😂
Ran into a version of this in standard funny enough. Counter spells and kill spells with Jace as the mill help.
@@matthewbryan6774 CGB did a video, on that standard deck.
So happy! Mono black updates every day!!!
Loved the reference to the intro of The Number of The Best. lol
Which itself is a reference to the book of Revelation
I used to run Fierce Empath in my Gruul deck 20 years ago
I stopped playing magic a decade ago
Fierce empath is the ONE card i recognize, since i had it in my elf deck. This was all Lorwyn & before; lots of token creation & tap untap shenanigans. Empath was there purely for the Kamahl grab should i need to find him to give stuff trample lol
I miss 2010 and earlier magic...
I used to use altar of dementia, in my goblins deck and when Krenko came out my friends would just quit when they saw goblins. The altar is so busted.
why not demonic counsel to search for the demon?
Because he needs versatility not search only demon
demoni ounsel doesn't hump blok reatures
fiere empath is better

He didn't think about it he'll neither did I 😂
Thank you for the Iron Maiden this morning!
Yesss, new favorite combo for Chris
Never disappoints with your silly and super fun builds. Keep it up MB dark lord! :]
Chris, are you aware that there is a collection called 'Special Guest' and a card named 'Sacrifice'? (Instant - As an additional cost to cast this spell, sacrifice a creature. Add an amount of equal to the sacrificed creature's mana value.)
Playing this video with Iron Maiden on the background.
Seeing this deck exile out the giant piles that the opponents are playing is perfection.
That one dude looked at Chris' hand, READ the cards, and still picked the wrong card to take. Bless him.
THIS is magic. THIS is why we enjoy magic. Anyone playing mono red…. Pathetic.
they would be mad at you for this comment, if they could read that is
@@Darby_777 Spot on! lol
I think I'll make a version with combat damage prevention to make it a bit more consistent against rush.
My favorite part of this deck is that after you combo you can look through your opponents entire deck
doesn't it exile all cards face-down?
@@sirius1320Exiled cards are not a deck. Just like your hand is not your deck and your battlefield is not your deck.
When the combo goes off, you can look through all the (zero) cards in your opponent's deck.
@@JusteazyGames Oh, ok, I got it. I thought with deck, he meant the cards you have in the deck you are playing, not the library.
Splashing in Rest In Peace some how would be perfect here. Every time I run mill in Historic they have Gaia's Blessing
U sir, always make me laugh and have very great deckcrafting. always.
You can't just cite Revelation 13:18. Those people knew not to play combo.
I fairly sure that was Dingus 9:28 from the good book Jason Dennis.
@@DuaneMckenzie80 It was Joshmo 4:20
Oh hey, I was playing this combo the other day.
7:10 Chris, in a deck with zero interaction, this statement is not just true for mono-red.
Got to love the dude who could have taken the altar and stall you maybe even win but no took the 2nd copy of the demon 😂
Nice janky combos, as usual! This one actually seems a bit more consistent than usual, so I'm even tempted to try it out myself.
I love this version of the deck.
I was playing today and some dude did a three card move that searched his deck and layed all his creatures out and blasted me with 70 hits!!!! This all turn 3
Top content 😆
Play again the no win con infinite Teferi phase out deck
still waiting world tree + leyline transformarion combo
Swamp
Dark Ritual ×3
Alter of Dementia
Doomsday Excruciator
One turn wins are very, very rare. One turn wins that only require six cards? Making them possible on a mulligan? Practically unheard of.
Iron Maiden's great, they're responsible for bringing me into metal in the first place.
Nice Maiden reference 😂
Happy Saturday Dark Lord
absolutely BRUTAL😂😂
You know guys... This deck is actually not bad. Some tuning and it's good for ladder
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩WTF one deck fresh, something new OMG GENIUS ,NOT THE FCKNG LINES 👌👍👍👍👍GENIUS
"Give it a 4.5/7.3"
Another banger of a deck
Brilliant!
This deck can be countered by Gaea’s Blessing.
theres a two mana tutor that tutors for demons.
Det er noget af et jank deck, men elsker det haha :)
deck list??
Signature Deck :D
Niceeeee
Deck list plz
Ow shit. This deck is disgusting
It's hillarious but it'd got a series weakness to removal
Mill
Mas fazer conexões pessoais é networking man! rs. Tá falando mal de algo que faz só pra tentar parecer diferente?
YES I'M THE FIRST! HI FROM ITALY (OR ETALI)!
Damn what a chad. Your life is complete

4.5/7.3 is 61.64% so 6/10 or close to it. That's a decent rating for decent sleeves.

Don't like the video. The likes are at 666.

The dark lord may be a villain, but he is not a monster that plays control xd
I'm number 2!!!
WHO DOES NUMBER 2 WORK FOR?
All followers of the Lord Dingus are #2 🙏
