      It was really good and now totally necessary with all the power and text creep we see in Magic… I miss Vampire Nighthawk: Flying, Deathtouch, Lifelink and all the remaining text was flavour text to develop the lore…

    Another card that I've found works extremely well in blue energy decks is Roil Cartographer. It's a 1/3 so it blocks some aggro pretty well, and +1 energy per land adds up with all of the fetches and other energy cards so hitting that 6 energy to draw 3 happens way more easily than you think.

    End of Game 2 was insane.
    Aether Hub: 3 damage
    Unstable Amulet: 4 damage
    Harnessed Lightning: 5 damage (+4 from Dynavolt)
    Dynavolt activation: 5 damage
    That's 21 available face damage just from cards you already had in hand or in play beginning the turn.
    Amped Raptor: 4 damage (+3 +3 from Unstable Amulets)
    31 damage plus whatever Amped Raptor hit. (EDIT: It doesn't hit anything oops)
    Ludicrous. You wiped their entire board and had damage to spare.

    Hey legend, want to again get your input on pure izzet version of this deck. I've been playing a version running 4 revolt and 4 Whirler Virtuoso with some copies of Cyclops Superconductor. Do you feel like Attune with Aether alone is the worth the splash to Temur? What is the reasoning to run Dynavolt Tower instead of just trying to find your revolts since you are almost guaranteed to win the turn after it resolves. Thanks again for video, love the content

      I know I'm very tempted to spend a few rare wild cards to try this out even though I never really play historic either. I opened one Aether Revolt in my free mh3 packs so it would only cost 4 rare wildcards. I'll swap the 4 Prismatic Vista for 4 Fabled Passage to save the mythic wildcards.

    • @DiogoVKersting
      @DiogoVKersting 25 дней назад +1

      @@darron614 Dynavolt Tower is also rare, and depending on your collection, it might cost a few rare wildcards for lands. Everything considered, is still not bad.
      I think I'll try drafting MH3 first, and then I'll decide if I'm going to build this. It's tempting but at the same time, I really like playing Standard.

    • @darron614

      ​@@DiogoVKersting yeah I mostly play standard and occasionally historic brawl. I should have been more clear though. I already have the 4 fast dual lands in the deck, so I just need to craft 1 Aether and 3 Dynavolt. I had 3 Fabled Passage and added one Bountiful Landscape to replace the 4 Prismatic Vista.

    Wow, splashing into green just for Attune with Aether. Adding a 3rd color just for that card seems like a stretch. Is there no better option? They arent' good cards, but could you use Inventor's Axe or Thriving Turtle? Or in the 2 drop slot there's a bunch of resonable options; maybe Aether Theorist or Roil Cartographer? Or is the land draw from Attune just that valuable?

    • @LegenVD
      @LegenVD  21 день назад +1

      It's a cheap sorcery that triggers Tower and also generates additional energy. The extra color is a relatively low cost, since we want to be playing Aether Hub and Prismatic Vista regardless.

      @eckroattheeckroat4246 20 дней назад

      @@LegenVD Huh, yeah. I gues I wasn't thinking that you already have 8 potential green sources in the mana base even if you cut green entirely, so it makes sense to leverage Attune for the partital land advantage and to have a sorcery as opposed to a creature. and thank you so much for the reply! I was a bit puzzled at the trade off, but as you point out, the cost is already relatively low given the mana base. thank you! Love your content! Best MTG creator on youtube. I really really REALLY miss the draft videos though, but I still love the constructed content!
