I really appreciate narrating the detailed thought process in drafting bc I can’t really watch while I’m work but listening to his descriptions is actually perfect for me.
It's a little weird to hear someone, even LSV, call Say It's Name "pushed" when the (non-Atlanak summoning) instant-speed version came out over 8-years ago in Eldritch Moon, Grapple with the Past.
Oh man, I wasn't aware Meathook II continued to do the "pay 3 life or else..." thing as long as it stays on the field, I thought it was a one time thing so I didn't understand why it was so expensive lol. Should've actually read the card.
I just got back into magic after 3 years. Played my first tourney on monday, just had a thought to myself I wonder if CFB and LSV is still jamming. Well I'm glad to see some things never change. oddly comforting.
This has got to be the best deck I've seen any streamer draft in this set so far. So many bombs, so much synergy, too bad you couldn't pull this one off at Worlds later this month eh?
Hey LSV, looking back at the draft after you've played your matches, would you have played the second Valgavoth that you passed on? I would assume still no, but curious to hear your thoughts.
Is enduring vitality potentially good enough for constructed? That’s some not too shabby stats that can do some potentially scary things. But I’m kinda out of the loop on that so likely either A) I’m an idiot and it’s unplayable in constructed or B) I’m an idiot and people are already playing it lol
It's seeing play in a tier two standard deck with Stormsplitter and a bunch of cantrips to combo off. Other than that I don't think I've seen it in much else as of yet.
In the 2nd match couldn't you have cast Say its name returning Valg's faithful and then re-animated either the Vile Mutilator or the Valgavoth you ended up flipping? Its a 7-mana play and you had 8 at the time, seems better than playing Overlord imo.
I think valgavoth is a pretty toxic card to have in a draft format. Still a fun draft to watch, but seeing valgavoth hit the field to prompt an immediate concession once is enough. That has been my experience every time playing this format as well.
@@hunhun7155 It's the first rank, where it takes a lot of wins to get out of. You get deranked when you loose and it takes more wins than before to advance. Also, I think most plat and diamond players aren't really that much worse than mythic players, when it comes to draft.

The arena version of the card Manifest dread with no reminder text is a thing of beauty
Great synergy in this deck! And the manifested creature getting meathooked into spectral snatcher was devastating 😆

27:04 wouldn't it be better to take the Valgavoth Faithful instead and reanimate Valgavoth that same turn? It'd be a flavor win too!
Yeah but he should have taken both valgavoths for the flavor win😂
25:23 "Okay, murder's nice" -Out of context LSV quote of the day
Great draft and games. Love to see Valgavoth hitting the field so consistently!
You had that tapping/thumping noise happening again though.
That's his son, up and coming basketball PRO! Who may or may not be getting a fourth basketball hoop for his birthday.

That deck is funny as hell, great work Luis.
I really like Valgavoth. It feels like the bomb that it needs to be specially in draft.
I agree. A really strong, hard to get onto the field big bad monster, that almost always wins you the game, but is still defeatable

I’m halfway through pack 3 and can I just say, what the fuck
i know right

the faithful are rewarded
That oppo that just threw a bunch of cards under valgavoth was very funny.
What a deck!
Very fun draft set
Too sweet!

wonder if valgavoth will see play in legacy as a reanimator target
Between griselbrand and archon of redemption, I don’t think it has room.
1:02:34 small misplay, play meathook then, trigger on stack, nowhere to run, getting 3 life or doll

Dude...who gets PASSED TWO VALGAVOTHS WHEN IT'S IN YOUR COLOR
It's lit!

This draft was absolutely cooked
Draft well, get rewarded.
What is the plural of Valgavoth? Valgavi? Valgaveese?
It's a proper name so you just put an S on the end.

That was amazing hahaha

I'm wondering why LSV is playing in Platinum, aren't the opponents there mostly not evenly matched against LSV?
New season, have to work your way back up the rank.
@@justinrishel1742 Oh ok that makes sense, but I thought I saw him playing a lot in Platinum before.
