I like some of these picks a lot. Picked up some cards. The build I have been going with is similar, bring the curve wayyyy down, add more unblockables / flyers, and then I have also tried to add growing mana rocks. I had a black market so I put that in, and I also had a everflowing chalice, and an empowered auto generator that I put in. These are great because they basically serve as the mana pool to cast stolen cards since man can be spent as any type to cast them. Because of this, I actually took 2 basic lands and the bounce land out since the deck was at 39 out of the box. I have actually considered taking more lands out as you can play the ones you will inevitably steal from your opponents. I might take 2 more out. Mana drops have never been a problem for me with this deck, and the ramp also helps a lot. Jus my two cents, seems to be working pretty well!
i really like your ideas. especially turning evasive creatures to mana. i have to add one thing to that intruder alarm seems a natural fit since you are going for this. edit: i forgot to say that hoarding broodlord is insane here. not for the etb as much as turn creatures to mana aspect.
It’s probably a good card, but just my personal deck building style is to play minimum tutors unless I’m going for something very specific eg my Melek deck. I enjoy more variance :)
@@OnlyCascades i didn't recommend the broodlord as a tutor. it gives spells you cast from exile convoke. it is a mana accelerant in your deck. if you don't run combos one tutor at best gives you an interaction spell or you can count it as a second copy of your finishers. so if you run 3 finishers now you can remove one of them. or something like that. i think you don't run any flicker effects so you don't get to abuse multiple tutors. yeah tutors are strong and kill variance but one single tutor you can't use multiple times usually is fine. also it is 8 mana with convoke. i think it is not that strong in a casual deck with no combos, but that is my opinion. i threw it my junky flicker deck that i put together in an hour or so and yeah i found an infinite line with it but the deck run an infinite already, so it basically fetched that. but yeah i get your concern. if you don't want to power the deck yeah adding a tutor messes this up
I boosted Gonti, the Canny Acquisitor deck for €60... And the deck works great. My friend spent more than €120 on the same deck and I still beat him with my deck 😛🙂 It all depends on which cards you put in the deck. And you also need a bit of luck and if you play the cards well on the table... you make a big turn. 🤠
Nature's will untaps all your lands and taps your opponents lands when you deal combat damage. This allows you to play your own spells, do damage/steal cards and essentially get a second turn of mana to cast your newly stolen cards
Its funny that the cards you took out won me the game , the setup i had and an arifact that is my personal pet card but i akways argue irs effectivness is quiteous spike, i stole someones ragavan made him unblockable put the spike on him and swung at somebody had felix five boot on the field , just from that ragavan i did 2 damage, halved the opponents life twice, stole 4 cards total and made two treasures. So far im loving this deck just started playing it a few days ago
Memory Lapse is a nice piece of interaction for Gonti

Since you're already running evasive creatures you should definitely consider dowsing dagger. The land it turns into is pretty bonkers

Nature’s Will is a nice card for this deck. You cast your spells main phase one and cast your opponents spells main phase two.
Nature's will untaps all your lands and taps your opponents lands when you deal combat damage.

I actually ordered this card yesterday, look forward to slotting it in :)
Great video as allways!!
Problem with gonti is he cost a lot, only takes 1 card each hit. Laughing Jasper is what Gonti should have been

Issue is that has nothing to do with gonti 🤣 Felix is defo a potential commander especially if you love spike but it isn’t what I wanted to do :)
how is managorger hydra a a 9/9 if everyone casts one spell?
Slight typo, one spell a turn - so I mean you cast it turn 3, 2 turns later when gonti is out there 8 spells
@@OnlyCascades ohhh so like 3 rotations then its a 9/9
Name checks out
Love the list! I bought the precon, too, and have been making changes. I put in Druids' Repository, and I think it'll put in work!
that’s a card I’ve always wanted to try, I like it!
