    Something that really hurts Gravedig is that it's a raw value card in a synergy-driven format.

      As someone who was excited for gravedig, I see now in retrospect how bad it is compared to the raise dead from OTJ

      Eh, for 4 mana you're essentially taking the turn off to set up. Meanwhile you could be playing Writhing Chrysalis on the same curve and be ahead on board.

    Chrysalis I’d venture to say is the best common we’ve ever seen on arena and that’s even accounting for the high relative power level of this format. Genuinely I think 40% of the games I’ve lost are my opponent having it.

    Reef Worm is also crazy with Cthonian Nightmare to create insane Maruader loops or whatever, but that’s really just an extension of your build around C grade because it’s still sacrifice synergy

    Chrysalis has single handily brought back RG Stompy and Ponza back into pauper, its an incredibly messed up common. We have not really had green decks perform this well in pauper in a long time besides the occasional walls combo or elf ball randomly getting a top placing.

      I played it in a draft and in a sealed and wasnt that great for me. It's good on turn two on an empty board, but if your opponent doesn't have good creatures giving then a 3/2 flier is a bad idea, meaning it's literally unplayable on some board. For me it's closer to a C

    My friends and I did a paper sealed night and I opened two Chrysalis. Everyone else opened zero or one of it's colours were their weakest. I did not lose a single game. The card is absolutely ridiculous. A few of the common signposts are quite strong for commons, but Chrysalis is in a category all it's own. Just as absolutely batty card all things considered.

    Reef Worm sometimes has a home in the UB draw deck if it has a sacrifice subtheme. Sneaky Snacker encourages you to have sacrifice effects, most notably Eviscerator's Insight which triggers your draw 3s and loops the Snackers but also others like Accursed Marauder and Lethal Throwdown. And when you have multiple sacrifice outlets you're encouraged to run more fodder like Reef Worm. The instant-speed ones are also excellent protection against bounce.

    Hunger Tide Rises needed a "give the creature a reach or deathtouch counter" added to it so it's not a 3 mana tutor that takes 4 turns and does nothing else but leave 1/1s around.

    Malevolent rumble is like ancient stirrings in tron deck. The set is very permanent heavy so it is often just choose one of four. And it is usually even better than if it cost only G and not produced a token. I think its main downside is 4 deck damage which is quite relevant in eldrazi stalemates.

  • @user-fd2co5xr7k
    @user-fd2co5xr7k Месяц назад

    I was playing a blue green eldrazi deck recently, and had thought I stabilized against my opponent’s energy deck, since i had two pretty big blockers, but the chargebug gave them just enough evasion to get through for lethal. And yeah, I thought the same about gravedig. The flexibility seemed good, but when it was actually in my hand, I NEVER wanted to use it as just a 2/2, and by the time I had a creature in my graveyard, I’d rather just entwine it since I have the mana anyways

  • @GiganticPawUnit

    I always think it would help explain the 17Lands data if you said something like "The win rate for this card is 49.7, that's five percent lower than the 17Lands average," for each card, to remind people that all these stats are coming from higher performing players if they weren't paying attention to the main explanation.

    Did the Chrysalis really need reach on top of everything else?
    I don't think you graded them wrong, but I have been valuing the 3 color evolving wild variants in this format a little more highly than other formats, but only slightly. Being able to tap for colorless helps for the eldrazi spells and the extra landfall triggers they trigger have been useful too especially with Glyph Elementals.

    Just realized something watching your video. If Satya (new energy commander) copies reef worm, at the end step reef worm token would be sacrificed (per mtg rules it’ll ‘die’) so it creates a 3/3. Rinse and repeat.

    Chrysalis is one of those cards that used to cost 5 at uncommon and I'd underrate as 4/5 missing the synergy and ramp utility. I'd still get my ass kicked by people playing it, and that's all fine. I can't believe Wizards thought this was fine.

    Writhing Chrysalis being a bomb really wouldn't be all that bad if other commons weren't underpowered by several stats. It's a card that largely showcases what would happen if players were allowed to build real decks with the packs they buy, rather than just combing for the rare and getting 14 coasters in half their packs.

      Nah mate, this thing warps every game around it, like a bomb does.
      It gets so big so quickly, that you usually need a hard removal to get rid of it, but even in that case you still got 2 of those ramp tokens out of it. If you build your deck correctly, you just start spamming big fat eldrazis every turn and you can't stop them. And Chris at 4 is a big reason for that
