Know of any other great MTG Turn 1 Wins? Let me know!
In this case, Nikachu, the only winning move here is not to play IMHO. This entire experience is predicated on one person feeling amazing, and the other feeling like garbage with no agency. The beauty of MTG is that it is not a fancy solitaire/coin flip game disguised as a TCG. Not only is this not a good display of what is possible in the modern MTG format, it doesn't look good on the individuals who created a deck specifically to do this to another player. I ask anyone, where is the fun in this? Where is the competitive integrity? If MTG Arena standard turns into this, I will leave and find a new TCG as it would mean I am no longer playing a 2 player game, I'm just participating in the illusion of a game specifically designed to make me feel frustrated and helpless. No thank you, and I advise anyone that respects themselves and cares about their mental health to stay far away from this. This is not what trading card games are, this is malicious solitaire with an unsuspecting, unwilling participant. It's hell, go there if you wish. The turn 1 win for anyone in this situation is to leave this environment that is filled with this possibility and these types of individuals. The MTG space is bigger than just 1 format. OM
Surprised there wasn't a flash-hulk mention. That deck could kill on turn 0 with gemstone caverns. Was it not legal in a format that people ever played on MTGO? I know flash got banned pretty quickly, but there was a time that people actually played the deck, right?
There’s another turn 0 modern with the blue lay line that gives everything flash so u do that gemstone then get out a ton of mana rocks like LED, mama crypt, mox opal, then u ad naus
A friend once had a (kinda) pre game win
He had the flash enchantment
So on the first upkeep he played:
Mana crypt
Lotus petal
Show and tell cheating omniscience
Played enter the infinite
Lab man
And opt
Allosaurus Rider both in art and in name depicts and Elf Rider.
That James guy on Arena takes 100 points for the sweet combo, but loses 1000 for the emote spam. -900 net points, opponent wins.
apperantly that whole format was an april fools joke so cant really take him seriously
Agree. That was obnoxious jogger behavior
I was at the first ever, turn one win at Gen Con in 1993.
The guy drew his 7, then went first, drew a card for the turn (as was the rules in Alpha)
Played a Lotus
Played a Ruby Mox
Played a Ruby Mox
Played a forrest
Tapped the moxes, tapped the forrest, sacced the lotus
Then cast channel for 19
Then cast Fireball for 21 damage before the other guy even drew a card.
Still will never forget the look on his face.
welcome to the big leagues!
There was also channel juggernaut and clockwork beast. Sure you didn’t technically win on turn 1 but the game was over.
Channel mind twist also. Your opponent has no hand when they start playing
winning with channel/fireball even in the lategame is still very satisfying
+rebecca updated artwork? 😻
5:20 there is clearly an elf on the back of that dino.....and the card is called Allosaurus RIDER.
The number of people that don't think about card names is wild...
Remember the cycle of phrases? Cut/ribbons (cut to ribbons) etc? Can't remember how many times I had to explain "that stupid card name" "why is it called ribbons?" Etc lol
Yeah look at a general rule if you think you see something you think is wrong your first reaction probably shouldn't be "they dumb lol" but rather "gosh did they really make a mistake????"
The most impressive thing about these videos is that the opponent sat through these games of solitaire without conceding.
There's more turn 1 wins out there, but the opponents do concede too early :P
If someone's gonna beat me on turn one, I'm down to stick around and see them do it to me lol
I guess that it depends for me. A turn 1 win with something like NeoBrand, yeah I wanna see that perfect hand go off. Maybe the opponent makes a mistake and I don't lose. But even if I do, that's a fairly involved process. But back when Trickery was legal, SSG was legal, and turn 1 Emrakul was possible, nah, I'm out.
The tibalt one had an early conclusion
Doesn't matter if you can FTK if you spam GG like that you're toxic
Usually with them I turn on full control, and make it go as long as possible.
THCXdoucheTV was his name.
@@rossblackblood9554 absolutely rope them.
@@benmeaige4306 What do you hope to succeed by reposting his user? This is also Toxic behaviour.
I only do that if the opponent does it first. Does it still count as toxic?
Another fantastic turn 1 win by SaffronOlive was when he was going against a dredge opponent, after sideboarding, and aggressively mulliganed to find the leyline of the void. He kept on mulliganing because he couldn't find it, until he remained with a single card in his hand, the card being leyline of the void. Opponent scooped instantly :D
nice!
I once played against an stasis deck, my first turn was a quirion ranger, he didn't had sword to plowshares or any other removal, not FoW on hand. He conceded to my turn one quirion
@@NikachuMTG Whats its 1st turn win %? These are type 1.5?
@@danquaylesitsspeltpotatoe8307 relatively high if the opponent has no interaction. But that's a lot to ask for in Legacy (formerly known as type 1.5)
Sounds like BS... How would his opponent know what card he had in hand?
Also starting with zero mana, and relying on a 4 drop seems like a bad idea.
Sources, please.
Mtg players: Wanna see a turn one win?
Yugioh players: Oh I’ve seen this one before.
Largely why I quit yugioh. OTKs/FTKs always looming and no mulligans for your dog sit hands? Fuck that I'm out
@@BeFourCM I watch my roommates play and It's pretty gross how long the first turns take and the max-c cards and special summons and all that.
As a Yugioh player I will say I don't like Master Duel but the TCG is fun.
Yu-Gi-Oh used to be good... Before xyz-neo-supra-megadeth versions of every monster...
@@oakforgeminiatures7862 not quite sure what you mean but fun is subjective.
That dude at min 10:00 is literally the classic MTGA toxic player you mute when the game begins
well its called Allosaurus "Rider" so the card is the rider itself, not a dinosaur/mount.
Well it coudl be an allosaurus that rides a horse!
@@tiagodagostini poor horse
Yeah, it's like sayings that every card with someone riding a horse should also have the "horse" subtype
@@IIARROWS does that not make sense? If the creature you’re summoning always comes with a horse then you’re also summoning a horse
Maybe he thought it was an allosaurus riding an allosaurus.
Random dude: Alright, but to play me some on line magic! Going to be fun!
*turn zero Tibalt*
Random dude: “Oh! It’s going to be one of those days!”
I'm somewhat new to MTG how does tibalt win him the game? it was entertaining for sure, but I'm so confused
@@garrettbussey879 imagine playing chess, but one of your pawns starts out already promoted to queen. It might not be an auto-win per se, but it's such a huge advantage out the gate that it may as well be.
This is easily one of the best videos you've made! It introduced me to 100% new content I would have never found by myself!
You’re welcome!
Technically speaking neither the emrakul or Tibalt were Turn 1-0 kills, they are turn 1-0 concedes because the opponent simply no way of dealing from that board state, but Emrakul swinging is a 2 turn clock and Tibalt is a value engine only at that moment.
@@dfsdfdsfdsfsdf7870 - Still not a t1 win, as the game went to t2.
If you want to be technical the player could have forced the playout and it might have even not been over till t3.
The guy who spamed those "gg" and "oops", after knowing he was going to win, is so toxic. I hate that kind of people, you have to be respectful to your opponent
This was funny, I enjoyed it! I love the new win pattern for Neobrand - that’s awesome.
Will never forget my turn one win...
Pact of the titan
Elvish spirit guide
Might of old Krosa
Simion spirit guide
Reckless charge
Berserk
Taiga.
22/8 haste, trample
Opponent looked at it and put his hand back on his deck, then started shuffling...
Thanks Nikachu good video.
As a really old magic player, we used to play magic each week, from 1997 to say 2009. There was about 6 of us, who would play legacy, as we bought cards casually over the years.
Eventually though, there was more and more of these turn 1 wins and it just broke the game for all of us. It just left a sour taste, losing in the first turn especially but a turn 2, 3 or 4 loss, just robbed the fun out of the game for us.
A couple of us, started looking for other games.
We discovered that there was in fact a ton of different tabletop games.
I think our first non magic game was the meh! Last Night on Earth (as I was a huge zombie fan boy at the time before that genre became over saturated) which eventually led us to BGG.
Here we discovered an entire world of stuff. We quickly got Puerto Rico then Agricola and it just went from there.
As much as we all hated these turn one wins, I suppose ultimately they were a good thing for me personally, as they led to me and my gaming group discovering other board and card games.
As good a game as MTG is/was and I'll still play it with my creaking collection, I've never really been inclined to buy any new products, mainly because of the bad feeling it left me with, with these 1 turn win situations.
It's pretty sad when companies over beat a dead horse what's worse is the fact that so many dummies buy the junk
"It's a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake." ~Nikachu
The thing that bugs me the most about the Cascade rule change post Tibalt is they should have done the same as an addendum to restricted search effects. Emergent Ultimatum wouldn't have been nearly as backbreaking (it would have still been good) if you couldn't cast Tibalt off of it because only the search was restricted in the card's text. The rule change would have been basically the equivalent as the Cascade one: if an effect would allow you to search for a card and cast it, and you find an MDFC, you may cast any side that meets all of the requirements and restrictions of that effect. In fact, a rule change like that would have prevented the need to change Cascade's specific rules.
I stopped playing Modern years ago because they banned my deck for "being able to win on turn 3". It's funny how the developer's will do anything to keep people buying new product.
Turn 3 is fine if you're going to waste my time to sit down and you go first and play the Turn one win I'm not responsible for what may happen because you wasted my time
A new morning Nikachu video is what I call a turn one win.
If someone spams "Good Game" or "Oops" they deserve cancer not praise
Just mute?
I liked the first couple. Not sure I would personally call the others turn 1 wins (only because it was not a kill, but a scoop that ended); However, good stuff; I enjoyed it ;)
Idk how Charbelcher feels like a jank and a competitive deck at the same time.
I'd argue thst most combo decks walk a very fine line between the two. Because when they don't hit, they honestly tend to be trash and can't do anything.
@@Xoulrath_ sure but a deck with no lands at all is something of a marvel imo
@@robertmendez8383 not really. Not with the way that they've been designing cards to not need mana for years. I'm personally surprised that there aren't more abuses. And the deck does TECHNICALLY have lands; they jaut don't count as such for the purposes of blowing through the deck with Spy.
I love seeing Seth "probably better known as Saffron Olive" clips especially this one
This is unironically how normal Yu-Gi-Oh is played nowadays and I hate it.
Great video, but I also have to point out, the card name is Allosaurus _Rider_ and that rider is an Elf in the art so it *is* an Elf Warrior type. I mean, an Allosaurus riding another dinosaur would be sill-ok in MTG everything is possible so maybe... but not here!
Allosaurus "Rider" wouldn't be a dinosaur. So the art makes perfect sense. Someone needs an editor. But I love your videos anyways.
the art is stupid because it doesn't focuss on the rider. the rider is like 1/18 of the illustration
@@vincent-antoinesoucy1872 the card is from a period where dinosaurs as a creature type DID NOT EXIST IN MAGIC xD its literally impossible for this card to have dino as a type
@@ich3730 They could have made this the first one then? It's far from impossible if the type exists at any point in time.
@@Dhips. the type was introduced in the set ixalan... just google it man...
@@ich3730 re-read what you said, then what I said. It's not impossible is all I'm saying. If they made the type later on they could have also made it sooner, and it's a thing now, making it possible.
Remebermy first deck, this was in the mid 90s i was a teen with very little money and had a friend that sold me a black/zombie deck he chraged me like 12$ for. It didnt win very much but it was mys start at lesrning. I had friends that commended me on my quickly learning the games mechanics even some of the complicated ones. I eventually moved up to adding some Seinger Vampires, inholy strengths and dark rituals, freast of the unicorns. It was pretty great getting a first turn vampire on it. Knew one guy who was gifted a box and binder FULL of cards. It had like 4x mana flares, dual lands and a freaking royal assasin with tons of othsr uncommon cards. I just had to use my connections to sell 40$ worth of cards and those mana flares sold insanely well and i had the 40$ in no time and thd rest of the collection to myself. Sometimes i still dream about all those cards but thdy were lost fo house fire.
Allosauraus Rider makes 100% sense as not a Dinosaur. It's referring to the elf riding the dinosaur, not the animal itself.
Love your videos, even when I don't even play Magic. A great way to start my day :)
The Werefrog remember once a local store decided to hold a tournament using original deck building rules. Those rules were minimum of 40 cards. As many copies of cards as you want. One player showed up with a card that could be discarded to produce red mana, and red direct damage, draw a card. That deck managed to win on turn 0. That is, as soon as you gain priority, you set it off.
I remember years ago playing PC MtG via Manalink and one version came with a prebuilt deck called Twisted. It was 4x B. Lotus, Mox Ruby, Sapphire, Volcanic Island, Timetwister, L. Bolt, Psionic Blast, and Wheel of Fortune. Most of the time you could turn 1 win. If not, turn 2 for sure.
I remember that Twisted deck, and had fun with it myself. Even better is how it's categorized as "U/R Wild", because it's a blue and red deck that contains multiple copies of powerful cards that would normally be restricted to 1. And, of course, "you are wild" if you play it.
Right into the main point of the video, no bs, i love it
I must say I dont play MTG but your videos are so entertaining I watch them
Thanks!
The MTGA turn 1 shown where it's a 3 card combo win is the reason I have not turned off the Mute Players feature since launch.
I'm fine with losing but the spamming of Oops/GG etc etc is just annoying. So since launch after it's Beta time I hit mute all players and take my Ls as I take my Ws. Silently. 🥰
And here i thought i knew magic, but once again i was amazed at these plays
I had a (legit) turn 1 kill with my enchantress deck. Went 2nd. Played Forest, then Fastbond (play as many forests as you like, each beyond the first deals you 1 damage), 3 Forests, Crucible of Worlds (3 cost, you can play lands from your discard pile), Zuran Orb (0 cost, sac a land for +2 health) ... and right here I'm at infinite life. Sacrifice a land for 2 health, play it for 1 health. Also infinite mana because I can tap it before discarding it. And my 8th card, forgive me because it's been a couple of decades since I played MtG and I can't remember the name, but it was an artifact (I believe) that allowed me to pay X to cause a player to discard X from the top of their deck into their discard pile.
I literally decked my opponent on the first turn.
That wasn't my main kill mechanic, it was just one I had in there for fun. Primarily I utilized enchantments to draw my entire deck within the first few turns and used Lone Wolf (can deal combat damage to opponent as though it was not blocked) + some crazy buffs to swing for a couple hundred with lifelinks.
My google-fu has failed me. If anyone recognizes the card I can't remember, I'd appreciate it. My deck was green primary / splash white / some artifacts. Mostly enchantments, very few spells (tutors only, I think, oh and a permanent removal), some artifacts, and the creatures were a couple of elves to get white mana outside my dual-lands, lone wolves, and enchantresses. So that card woulda had to be either an enchantment or artifact, most likely an artifact. I haven't played that deck in 10+ years, easily, possibly 15-20 years.
Is the artifact you're thinking of Sands of Delirium?
"X, Tap: Target player mills X cards."
Heck yeah, another Nikachu video! Always love the animal crossing songs in these vids!
Finally you are back with more content! :)
Keep going the great work, you are awesome and your content is interesting AND joyful at the same time, especially for people without much deeper knowledge about tournament surprises, cheaters or strong deck building strategys, like me.
3rd game wasn't a 1 turn win for multiple reasons but the big one being it would take 3 turns to win. One for summoning sickness and 2 turns for attacks.
Great stuff! Missed the turn 0 Flash/Hulk combo tho.
Oh hey Meryn! Am a fan. But yeah. All these are so entertaining 😂
I remember that Dark ritual OTK. It seemed safer to run Peer into the Abyss and to ensure I didn't get bored, Torment of hailfire and Aetherflux Reservoir were in there too
It’s obviously the dinosaur smash. Definitely the best.
Charbelcher brings back so many memories. Def my favorite. My god I'm craving to play MTG again. I think I'll make a deck when I get my taxes lol.
jump on in, the water's warm
That Dark Ritual Sign in Blood combo felt like when you build the engine just right in Dominion
Turn one win with Thrasta.
Nikachu: I CALLED IT!
Heck yeah! Love me some turn one wins. 👍
I cant even follow without you but this looks funny af LOL
I came for the 1st turn kills, but stayed for the Lazy Town references.
Lmfao i love hiw nikachu converted magic to a cooking recipe
I love the neoform deck it's just so ridiculously beautiful.
Nice" Lazytown reference dude 😎 My daughter used to watch that show on repeat 24/7 😆
Love your channel, think I’ve finally watched all your videos
Thanks! More videos to come!
that card isn't called allosaurus, it's allosaurus 'rider'. that means the creature isn't the dino, but the elf riding it. so the creature type does match the card...
i never played magic, but after watching all these videos, it seems like griselbrand is a staple in every deck apparently lol. the amount of videos this guy has with it getting a mention at the very least is crazy.
Having an opponent scoop on turn 1 isn't the same as a turn 1 win. The first couple were legit. I played near the start of magic and there was a combo of Ball Lightning, blood lust and Beserk that mad a 20/1 ball lightning before your oppenent got a turn. It also required a black lotus and a mox, but with some of these other card like LED and things you can exile for mana it seems like there's more options.
I came looking to see if anyone else shared that sentiment. Yes, you cast your T0 Tibalt, so now you can... exile the top card of my library on your turn? You still have to pay it's CMC... I'm not seeing the instant win here other than it's a cheeky way to get him into play.
@@phoxhole T1 Noble implies creature deck and you are T1 looking across the table to something saying «Oh, hello, I can steal anything relevant you can play from now on, while keeping my loyalty high otherwise with steady stream of card advantage». Even worst case, if it's Bogles (which is unlikely with Noble start though possible), it's still insanely hard to overcome. So yes, it's not looking like T1 win, but against creature decks it's pretty much is.
I'm so glad that the rules changed for Valki/Tibalt. Getting hit with that garbage was so unfun. It doesn't crop up much anymore, but I really think they need to change how Valki interacts with Bring to Light still, because you can still BtL Tibalt into play, and it's still as unfun as anything. But with all the T3feri, Hammer, and Omnath shenanigans running around now, it's less likely to happen.
It's at best a turn 3 Tibalt though. That's just a one turn difference, but it matters a lot more than that would seem. In order for thst play to happen, the Tibalt player has to be using some form of ramp to get Bring to Light cast by trun 3 with 5 colors of mana.
There are plenty of ways to shut that down. I know. I play 5C decks often. When I get the mana ramp and it isn't removed, then yeah, my opponent usually loses the game by turn 3-4. When my mana ramp gets removed, I'm at a fairly large disadvantage. Playing 5C ramp decks are absolutely high risk-high reward. They just feel unfair when you lose to them because it is brutally fast.
Love the lazy town reference, i was showing people the little john version just yesterday at work
Best turn 1 win: Full Exodia in your hand > Any other TCG turn 1 wins
Imagine losing a game of magic you didnt even play
I went to a games store once to play some casual Magic. Some guy immediately challenged me, and when the game started, he started milling himself over and over, basically chaining some kind of combo move to get me in a First Turn Kill.
The trouble is, he took out whatever linchpin card he needed to actually deal the damage or whatever. So he ended up milling himself and decking out without having dealt a point of damage or really offering any offense whatsoever.
The moral is, scooping is the natural response to being confronted with some smug troll gamer, but clever or not, they are not immune to bouts of stupidity.
Standard Academy State championships.
I was running academy along with maybe 20% of the people there (Pre net decks for the most part)
During the tournament, I got a T1 win and also lost to a T1 win.
The last game of the tournament was me vs last years champion, both running academy. We were 1-1 and I was on the draw. I had all the pieces for a T1 win IF he didn't have and play Academy T1 (old Legends rules where first Legend on the battlefield was the only one that could be) or possibly Wasteland, but I think I had some petals and a vault so I still could have at least gotten ahead with one tap of Academy and a windfall. I should have mulled, as it was a risky hand with no other lands (the deck only ran 12 or so land, so unlikely to draw into land), but it was a long day, and my brain was fried, so I tried the gamble.
I lost. Took him like 5 turns (Deck normally won by T3) because he kept a bad hand (which makes my gamble even worse)....but one that had Academy and was safer then mine.
I almost identical decks (And we both developed on our onw) but I had the better sideboard for the mirror (Tidal Warrior vs a UU 4/1 Island walk that he had) but can't be too upset with second place, losing to the previous year's winner.
The Lukka combo is not turn one kill, the opponent conceded.
But it is a turn 1 win due to the opponent conceding! I mean, they are basically dead.
So they won on turn 1?
I have won several times on turn 0 because my opponents couldn’t get a good hand, it still doesn’t count… Nevertheless, it was a really interesting video
Having your opponent scoop does not count as a 'turn one win'. If it does, I have dozens upon dozens of Arena wins to show you. I promise they aren't impressive at all.
well, these are specifically Epic Turn 1 wins
The girl with Emrakul: "This is gonna be the best moment in my life"
Extremely sad 🤦♂️
You are correct, allosaurus RIDER is infact not a dinosaur , but he does ride them nonetheless , artwork made sense to me . 🤔
this reminds of my technical t1 win against a friend playing vintage. Black lotus + mana crypt tinker sacing crypt into blightsteel and then timewalk to finish it
nice! Every most powerful card in the game!
Years ago I used to run/judge local tournaments at Purdue. This was around Mirage/Visions. One type 1 tournament I judged came down to two decks that could one turn win by using Lion's Eye diamonds (it wasn't restricted back then) , moxes, lotus, with Hurkyl's Recall, Wheel of Fortune, Time Twister, & graveyard retreival to build up infinite mana in order to Braingeiyser their opponent out of a deck. The two players knew what each other was running so they knew the winner would be who ever went first in the first game. That person would win 2-1.
I offered them a compromise. "What if you both played your deck as many times to a one turn win in a row as you could & the other guy had to do it more times instead of us just deciding the match on a single coin flip?"
The loser ended up being the first player. His deck only won 20 first turn wins in a row before faltering on the 21st try. The other guy got 21 wins & was the tourney winner. Both the guys were happy with a chance to win vs letting luck decide, & the whole shop had a blast watching these 2 amazing decks go head to head.
bro, I laughed so hard when that life total went from 20 to -31 XD!!!
Nice vid, though, Allosaurus Rider's art is spot on. There's an elf riding the dino in the pic...so, there. He's the Allosaurus Rider.
It's crazy how much more fun commander is
Facts. Since I started playing commander, 60 card formats have basically zero appeal to me.
Feels like this guy is playing yu gi oh while everyone else is playing magic.
I liked the raging goblin + Hatred 1st turn win. I ended up building that deck because I thought it was cool.
Now this is why I started playing Magic.
The music front the grizzlebrand though 😂😂😂😂
Allosaurus Rider is the rider of the, allosaurus so it's an elf.
Great video as usual!
I love Bryant! Glad to see him on here!
Nikachu video to start of the day gooood
In 1995 I lost on turn 2 to a lord of the pit.
Dude goes bayou jet emerald ritual rutual lord of the pit.
I go mountain, goblin ballon brigade (mono red burn with goblin grenade and blood moons)
He goes take 7 from lord, then giant growth berserk swing for 20.
Most satisfying loss I ever had. Only a plow or sapphire plus counter or mama drain could have stopped his opening hand
Everyone was humble and well mannered, then came THCxJamesTV with the emote BM..
Old school players remember the turn 1 Ball Lightning win. Taiga, Black Lotus, Mox Emerald, Mox Ruby, Ball Lightning, Berserk, Fork. You can swap out the power 9 stuff now with lotus petal or spirit guide or whatever, but the foundation is still there.
While not a first turn win, I played a land destruction deck that could pretty consistently drop Nether Void/Juzam Djinn on the first turn. For those that don't know, Nether Void made all cards cost 3 colorless more (including zero mana cards) so if I dropped a Nether Void on turn the earliest an opponent could play ANYTHING was on thier turn 3 & that was only something that cost 0.
If I had in hand or drew a Strip Mine by turn 3 it was an auto win as my opponent couldn't play anything but a few lands before the Juzam killed them. This was of course before Alliances was released & a lot of those shenanigans were halted.
There was a time when it was actually possible to win on turn 1 in standard. No need for elaborate combos from cards printed decades apart from each other. However, it required an exact hand of 7 specific cards. Mountain, Rites of Initiation, Anger, and 4 Basking Rootwalla.
The rootwallas would not have been in play when rites resolved. So they wouldn’t get the +1/0 bonus.
You could’ve swung over for 4 though!
i dont know how to feel about the gotta do the cooking by the book thing you said because i know EXACTLY where you quoted it from
Great job turn 1 emrakul has been done.. but turn 1 Spawnsire of Ulamog and paying the 20 mana to dump the Spegetti factory buffet out on the board.. that's a new challenge for maven, good luck! 😂 also mass hysteria for haste
the dark ritual/ sign in blood/ tendrils of agony win would make very angry as the opponent
I was hoping to see a no land grapeshot win. One of my favorites
How does that work?
It involved spirit guides, lotus petals, chrome mox, with all the 0 cost creatures, glimpse of nature, and grapeshot. It's not a good deck, I made it for a challenge a shop did.
I would not do this and this is not me. The beauty of MTG is that it is not solitaire with dragons and wizards. Would anyone want to be on the receiving end of this? All this does, and much thanks to Nikachu MTG for this video, is make me never want to play modern format or with any of these people. Take care of yourself everyone, including your mental health. Interacting with any form of this is detrimental to one's own mental peace. If in all honesty, doing this to someone is "the greatest moment of your life," you take pleasure in the torment you inflict on others and you need serious help. Peace and love. Namaste. 🕉
Chill with the peace and love dude it's cardboard rectangles not war. People have fun playing games, especially card games, in any way they find fit, and if this happens to offend you then do what you said and simply avoid these players. Never put somebody down for how they manage to make this game enjoyable though
@@catman08724 I won't put anyone down ever, but I will be true to myself. I also take no offense, nor will I ever from anyone else's actions. I'm not here to live up to your expectations and you're not here to live up to mine. That doesn't mean I won't have values and opinions based on those values. If someone in MTG "makes this game enjoyable" by putting someone through torment with no reprieve, then yes, I will call that out as flat out morally disgusting and abhorrent. The other player does not get to play in this situation. How is is enjoyable for the other party? Blatantly conveying "hey, don't judge these individuals for doing this awful thing to another human being because they enjoy it" only shows support for this kind of behavior. Support it if you wish, I'm just here to offer objective truth for those that want it. This is not what a TCG is and it is not fun for the other party. How could it be? Play with and support these types of MTG players if you wish, worship whomever or whatever. I'm just letting you know that it is hell. Go there if you wish, I will be far away watching safely at a great distance. OM
You clearly have no clue about psychology and insert your own insecurities into the game.
The thing is anyone willing to put time and effort into the game can TRY for such a win. And such combos are not just a limited number of unbearable cards. Combos come in all forms and most can be defeated if you plan ahead.
Nothing is guaranteed and that's why it's fun when you can pull it off.
By the way, I actually have degrees and experience in the field of psychology. If these types of competitive games aren't for you, well why are you here? MtG had been like this for decades.
My buddy had a combo with the Worldgorger dragon before but I forgot the combo. Basically whenever permanents return to play you could tap all lands for floating mana and repeat it whenever the Worldgorger enters and leave. So you can be left with inifinite mana.
Animate Dead?
It's almost like the RIDER in the name denotes that the dinosaur is not the subject of focus.
"the world's your oyster" has got to be one of my new favourite quotes
that’s a very common phrase
Allosaurus rider is an elf because the creature is not the allosaurus, it is the elf riding the allosaurus
btw, there _are_ ways to legitimately win on turn zero, not prompt your opponent to just scoop on their turn 1: the one I know off the top of my head consists of turn0 mana sources + a gogetcreature instant that lets you search for a _total mana cost_ worth of creatures (converted cost 6, but you only actually need 3 of it) the spell has 2 cost options with the cheap option doing bad things to you if you fail to finish paying it fast enough...but you know where this is going right? you go get at least 1 of your 4 copies of a 1-cost critter that pings for 1 every time an artifact is destroyed (1 black iirc...the color didn't actually matter to the deck so I forget), and go get at least 1 arcbound ravager (2clear), while you're at it you go ahead and grab 0 mana worth of 0-cost artifact critters (ornithopters and the like, you could get exactly 20 into a deck when this deck was designed, dunno if that has changed), resolve the spell placing a ravager, 1-4 pingers, and 0-20 artifact creatures, then immediately sac all your 0-costs to the ravager pumping it up to at most a 21/21 and dealing up to 80 individually targeted instances of ping-you-for-1.
turn-0 win condition is the mana + the big goget spell + NOT having all 4 copies of your pingers or all of your copies of ravagers in your opening hand...which come to think of it can't actually happen in 7 cards, this deck actually turn-0s a respectable percentage of the time with 1-2 as the norm and 3 turn kills requiring some genuinely terrible luck.
the deck also plays quite reliably as a weirdly flavored burn deck under normal circumstances since it is literally nothing but mana sources and ways to use that mana to do lots of things at once, particularly with multiple cards that let you go ahead and put a third of your frieking deck onto the field because 20x0=0.
can't for the life of me remember what the big green goget was OR the maybe-black pingers, this is gonna bug me now.
I still like the old turn zero deck best that had nothing more than 12 of each: Black Lotus, Blaze or Fireball, Channel, Mox Emeralds, and Mox Rubies.
I had an opponent snap-scoop after I played a ❄️ forest once. I had a terrible hand too!
Come on, be fair, Allosaurus RIDER obviously refers to the guy on top of the dinosaur, not the dinosaur itself. By your logic, Mantis rider should be an insect. Though it would be funny, Adelaide would be Legendary creature - human horse...
As for great t1 wins caught on stream, check out Kenji's channel (NumotTheNummy), there is a pretty sick clip from 2-3 years ago (vintage). Nothing too exotic, I think it was either tinker/citadel or PO (maybe both??), but it was perfectly piloted and a great showcase of what a blue deck in vintage can do.
This Just In: the cards name is Alosaurus RIDER.
Back in my day we didn't have all of these fancy programs and a million cards. So my best FTK (vs FTW) was good old reliable channel/fireball (with a couple lotus and moxes).
I remember the classic channel fireball, the inter turn deck (yes, I'm that old) and the flash deck, those were ridiculous
The inter turn deck used several loopholes on the rules to generate infinite mana and make it go into the main phase.
Wall of roots can be used once per turn, but the inter turn is nota turn. Back then you could respond to a creature dying, so you could put as many counters as you wanted... During the inter turn.
But the mana pool gets emptied at the beginning of the turn... Not really, it was at the beginning of the untap. So you play stasis and go straight to upkeep. Now you can burn your opponent with an instant
