He did put it on the wrong creature sort of. He was probably aiming to take out teferi with it so he oops'd because he realized he misplayed his initial attack. (ECD was in play no point taking out teferi then)
And here is a CGB in it's natural habitat, the azorius control deck. When a CGB identifies a member of the mono red species invading their territory, they will torture their prey until they can't fight back anymore, and only then, they will deal the finishing blow.
My heart is calmed by the absolute obliteration of that last mono-red. I'm sure casually ending the game at nearly double starting life was irksome to no end. Keep the control alive!
I was quite relieved to see that Master of Time, while strong, is nowhere close to as poorly thought out as Time Raveler. But the momentary heart attack of hearing that the face of M21 was Teferi definitely still happened for me.
Yay Im in the video. Also, Im playing hushbringer because everybody and their mom was playing rakdos sacrifice on that day. As long as you drew sephara or hushbringer in the matchup, it was almost like an auto win. Sadly me and my dumb 15 year old brain prolonged our match because I was super excited to face you. I should have just insta scooped because once the fae was down, it was was already over. Plus with the shatter the sky, it sealed the deal.
@@jfb- As a Sacdos player myself, yes. I won't claim to be the best rakdos sac player but if hushbringer comes down there are very few games that I win.
@@jfb- Cat-oven is the main engine of the deck. Shutting that off removes a lot of the reach the deck has and Hushbringer gives you a way to gain a little bit of life on top of it. It also stops Serrated Scorpion's death trigger, which causes a 4-point life swing, as well as Dreadhorde Butcher's. In sum: Rakdos Sacrifice shrivels up and dies if it can't take care of a Hushbringer.
The first Narset-block re:Lochthwain could be written off as a genuine mistake. It was the second one (plus the attempt to revive the cat) that convinced me that no, he was just an idiot.
That was the best meditation I've ever had. All my anger against Mono Red turned into a calm wave of satisfaction. Thank you! Also, I finally decided to become a member of your channel. This is the first time I'm ever doing this for a streamer but I couldn't think about a better one. Thanks for all the content, inspiration and dark humour that lights up my day
@@Nesuns because you can pilot one of the hardest archtypes of all time in a format where really hard to deal with threats like anax and cat exist. Don't piss on a deck and say its easy because it wins Have a good day :)
@@kaederukawa1123 denying anthything an opponent does is not skillful, its ez mode. Plays the same even by yourself. You can run out of cards before reaching your win con, theres a reason 98% of wins are scoops.
@@itayazikri1406 hey don't hate on cat and annax on a format that heavily counters,board wipes and GY hate everything you put down. Don't piss on a deck and say its easy because it wins.
@@Nesuns not pissing. Mono red can be really hard to play esp in older formats. Oven on the other hand has a simple loop that once established almost auto wins a given game therfore i think its the easyest deck in the format currently. My little brother who piloted the deck for the first time a few days ago had a preety good streak in mythic with him bearly knowing the cards. Cheers.
I’m sure I’ve looked stupid like this before. I routinely teach people now to play on my own account. It’s funny watching my wife play horribly in mythic.
Hey CGB, since you said in the video, that the deck is missing a win-condition, I tried it with two added shark tornados and the new narset from Ikoria. For that i move the ugin to the sideboard and removed one or two aether gust. That worked really well!
I enjoyed this video immensely as any true Gandalf should delight in the prolonged torture of red mages. I also enjoyed when CGB showed us his face cam was the core of the deck :)
Wow. That Gravedigger's Cage did some serious WORK... and apparently several of your opponents had no idea what it did till it was too late. That had to hurt.
HelloGoodGame is a nice chap, I like his streams a lot, but his decks sometimes needs a lot of re-work. Anyway, funny stuff and I like his style. Glad to see my 2 gurues are working together. Thumbs Up.
Hi CGB, I've just made Mythic with a modified version of this deck, it's so strong in BO1! Replaced big Ugin with baby Ugin, since 8 mana is a lot in the maindeck. I've kicked out all the Aether Gusts and put in an extra sweeper in Time Wipe, 4th Fae of Wishes and Jeskai Narset. Sideboard is similar, but one card that shouldn't be overlooked is White Finale, it can close out the game against any deck, especially if cast at their EOT via T3f. If you are looking for a good BO1 ladder deck, this one still provides!
I really enjoy wathing you play CGB! especially when you played against red deck, you give them a really good lesson not to mess with control player! keep up the good work!
This deck is awesome, but i noticed that (during my gameplay) there was more conceding out of frustration by the opponent than actual damage being done. I opted for a killer sideboard that adds a level of destruction to an already awesome control setup. Crushing rank. SIDEBOARD: Colossus Hammer 2x Sorcerous Spyglass Elspeth Sun's Nemesis 2x Karn - to fetch the destruction cards along with Fae Divine Visitation - Combo with Birth and Elspeth Sun's Nemesis God-Pharaoh's Statue 2x Kiora Bests the Sea God - Because you WILL have the lands! 2x Meteor Golem 2x Parhelion II - For Karn and build up of Elspeth's tokens Stonecoil serpent - Again, because you'll have a lot of lands at this point in the game
15:00 opp would have had lethal if he wouldn’t have sacked the butcher. He could have played devil, played cat (down to 4) sac’d cat (down to 3) sac a food to return cat (cat won’t come back but devil still triggers so down to 2) and do that two more times = down to 0. You’re a lucky man CGB 😉
This deck looks fun to play! Twisting opponents into a squirmy bind. Absolute denial is evil lol, probably should have brought out the sun glasses CGB!
It's funny. You saying you don't know what happened in your childhood to make you this sick made me remember my start of playing Magic. I started playing during RTR/Theros. My brother was already playing a lot. I built the mono green deck and he played the really strong UW control deck. Needless to say that spending so much time painfully learning how to play bs a UW Control deck made me realize that I want to be that guy. I love control decks, and when I used to play Modern about 3ish years ago my favourite deck ever (and still is but I sold it :() is RG Tron. Turn 3 Karn and watching the life drain from my opponent's eyes was always the best.
These games made me sad and happy aswell... I am happy to see cgb play his favourite deck. I am sad that players (including myself) still don't know what narset and gravediggers cage do
Aristocrat sacrifice is so annoying. It was fun to see the cat-oven-devil player get frustrated instead! When the shoe is on the other foot they had no answers! :P
Big brain Play: 26:50 set a stop at your upkeep, discard ugin and another card to Fae of Wishes, get 2 mana ugin from Elspeth conquers Death. Also, what do people think about Unsubstantiate in this deck? is it just a better Aether Gust?
Watching that last game again mono red "Stop, stop, he's already dead." How does that person not scoop... like i could see if he though maybe you didnt know you were about to deck yourself, but ya know, shuffle that grave in and he is just like, ill watch myself die now.
I mean, the Finale of Revelation had been in his hand a few turns by that point. If they knew what it did (and, they might not, because red mage), they'd know that was futile. On the other hand, they might not have realized Ugin was a win con, and assumed CGB didn't really have one.
Aether Disgust e: the game vs your nemesis was just fabulous. I sat through it in awe ^_^ but hey, also credit he sat through the whole ugin ult getting wrecked
This deck is really good but doesn't have enough potential to deal damage. I removed 1 narset, 1 aether gust, 1 omen, and 1 te4eri, and added 2 sharks, and 2 ominous seas. I also swapped the triomes for more UW lands. Deck is working great.
I like the deck. I was thinking of removing a dovin's veto in order to add a "ramp" card of some kind. I have had a couple games where I have ugin in hand or two opportunities to cast granted and being able to cast ugin one turn earlier would have won the game. What would be the best thing to fetch? a basic land would allow to cast ugin on curve at turn 8, a chromatic orb would allow casting it on turn 7, but could be destroyed or countered, Chromatic Orrery would allow a turn 8 ugin and other stuff but the same disadvantages of Orb. Any other UW options that would be better?
Question. How would this go if you swapped field of ruin for a karns bastion? Help you get to the ults faster and gives you another option to do on their turns.
That poor red mage... I mean, I'm an Aristocrats guy, so they hate me too. But... I don't torture them. I just hurt them while gaining life from them hurting me. This was a war crime.
Cool deck. I feel that the games would have gone differently if you didn't draw 3-4 interplanar beacons every game though. I'm not the best magic player but wouldn't it be better to put a win condition card in the deck, or side board? It's a brilliant control deck but after you control the board you're just stuck beating them down with fae of wishes for 20 turns haha

The link doesn't work for me, just lands on a GoodGame's main page
The opponent giving you the Oops before the Aether Gust was priceless xD
Not gonna lie, that was very satisfying.
He did put it on the wrong creature sort of. He was probably aiming to take out teferi with it so he oops'd because he realized he misplayed his initial attack. (ECD was in play no point taking out teferi then)
Yeah!
And here is a CGB in it's natural habitat, the azorius control deck. When a CGB identifies a member of the mono red species invading their territory, they will torture their prey until they can't fight back anymore, and only then, they will deal the finishing blow.
My heart is calmed by the absolute obliteration of that last mono-red. I'm sure casually ending the game at nearly double starting life was irksome to no end. Keep the control alive!
I’m not a fan of control, as it obliterates me 70% of the time. Unless I’m lucky with my card draw and timing.
Specially because the red player was probably on the BM side with the emotes. That embercleave oops was delightful.
I love to play control decks, but when I'm on mono red and I can beat a control with 32 rare, 18 mythical and 10 basic lands I feel so much happier...
That last game was a strange juxtaposition for me... I gravitate to control but that was a brutally surgical dismantling of that red player.
@@ignazioacerenza9881 He wasnt bming there, he genuinely made a mistake
Me: "Whew, only one more set before we don't have to deal with T3feri anymore."
WotC: "The face of M21 is Teferi."
Me: *Internal screaming*
At least the new teferi isnt as bad to deal with
The old teferi was horribly cheap, especially for spell decks. Now it's draw as many cards as you can to win.
@@libsoric6693 exept ppl dont know how phasing works
I was quite relieved to see that Master of Time, while strong, is nowhere close to as poorly thought out as Time Raveler. But the momentary heart attack of hearing that the face of M21 was Teferi definitely still happened for me.
Do a 10-12 Teferi deck in historic with Oath of Teferi. Become the final form of CovertGoHeel.
That deck actually exists. I wonder why it's named Tribal Teferi ;-) Enjoy ! ruclips.net/video/6jylDZpt0l8/видео.html And, btw, you probably meant CovertGoHell ?
@@JohnDoe-xk2sj heel is a wrestling term. It means the showy bad guy. It is CovertGoHeel because CGB is a wrestling fan
@@JohnDoe-xk2sj wait... have you never witnessed CovertGoHeel? you missed out my friend :D
Oh, I didn't knew about CovertGoHeel. Thank you all for your answers :)
Big fan of how 4feri lets you feel ok about drawing multiples of your Planeswalker, very satisfying
Love ur DBZ content!
Yay Im in the video. Also, Im playing hushbringer because everybody and their mom was playing rakdos sacrifice on that day.
As long as you drew sephara or hushbringer in the matchup, it was almost like an auto win.
Sadly me and my dumb 15 year old brain prolonged our match because I was super excited to face you. I should have just insta scooped because once the fae was down, it was was already over. Plus with the shatter the sky, it sealed the deal.
Does hush do much against sac? It stops the cat ping and a few random death triggers, but not the devil
@@jfb- As a Sacdos player myself, yes. I won't claim to be the best rakdos sac player but if hushbringer comes down there are very few games that I win.

Sorry I had to battle you, best of luck
@@covertgoblue as long as t3feri is around, you will be the only UW player i'll be happy to lose to. 😁
The first Narset-block re:Lochthwain could be written off as a genuine mistake. It was the second one (plus the attempt to revive the cat) that convinced me that no, he was just an idiot.
Yeah, sometimes people forget a planeswalker passive, it's an honest mistake. The second time, though...no excuse.
He could be showing his frustration of how hindered he was by the hate pieces before scooping, in a sort of guilt trip :p
idiot in top 1000 Mythic ? so....whats ur rank?
I mean one can still use Locthwain, just not on your own turn.
And it looked like they never encountered a cage before. Brain's on auto-pilot.
vasyasol you can play mono red into mythic without using a single brain cell. Ranks don’t say anything about how good you play
The last monored deck guy is the real hero of patiente.
CGB: "Oh no. No, no. Don't try to draw cards when my Narset is on the board. Oh when does Narset rotate.... (Snickers uncontrollably)
That was the best meditation I've ever had. All my anger against Mono Red turned into a calm wave of satisfaction. Thank you!

I feel you adequately demonstrated just how low a skill floor it takes to pilot sakdos to a high rank.
And his deck requires more? Lol

My poor mono red heart broke, seeing what you did to that red mage :D
Also, this deck looks like living hell to play against. Which makes me ask the question: Why did I click like?
that first game is exactly what's wrong with mtga, rakdos sac gets you to mythic while you castle vs narset and cat vs cage.
Yeah, that guy was either half asleep or drunk. There's no way you get to mythic ranks with that level of play. It was honestly painful to watch.
I’m sure I’ve looked stupid like this before. I routinely teach people now to play on my own account. It’s funny watching my wife play horribly in mythic.
I already watched most of your videos, but I forever became a fan after watching the vindictive play against mono red, I loved that so much!
Hey CGB, since you said in the video, that the deck is missing a win-condition, I tried it with two added shark tornados and the new narset from Ikoria. For that i move the ugin to the sideboard and removed one or two aether gust. That worked really well!

This deck is awesome, but i noticed that (during my gameplay) there was more conceding out of frustration by the opponent than actual damage being done. I opted for a killer sideboard that adds a level of destruction to an already awesome control setup. Crushing rank.

2x Karn - to fetch the destruction cards along with Fae

Thanks for the list, I made a few switches but i'm ranked #184 mythic atm and very happy

Love this deck and your reactions to your opponent's mistakes. Suscribried!
As a Dimir player, it will always be nice watch an Azorious been happy destroying agroo~
Yeeeeah boy
cant wait for you and Hello Good Game to play against each other, you are both extremely good players
you are the necessity evil CGB :) congrats on top 100 mythic

That last game vs mono red was super epic!
That last game was so cathartic for me!
"Teferi tribal" are words to fuel nightmares
16:30 so sweet^^
I just built and played this deck on ladder.... I feel kinda scummy but can't stop cackling with maniacal laughter!
52:30 the only wincon this deck needs is patience.
Im playing this deck on diamond except only 2 changes, but it destroys monored so hard. Loved the obliteration on that game CBG, torturing red lol..
yes, Yes, YEEESSS!!! What a kind red mage, so patient in their demise...
CGB at his best. And what was with that 500 point rank jump? I've never seen it go that high after one game.
Sees CovertGoBlue as the current opponent ... Insta concede to avoid all the pain and agony LOL! New Ugin and Teferi are way too powerful.
Great video as always! Just a question, would phasing a Torbran with Teferi mean his passive no longer applies?
Yeah, it essentially removes the card completely from the game until the phase wears off
That last game was so insane
That last red mage sticking it out to the end like that is the greatest hero of our age
Also my favorite colors to play. I love azorious.
I need a "this is mono red " shirt I'm going to keep asking until u do it
For me watching CGB play UW Control is like watching a kid play in the mud. I'm a bit disgusted but as long as he's enjoying it, I enjoy to watch. ;-P
CGB you are the GOAT!
Damn I love the new Teferi animations
watching that cat play like a moron was gorgeous

e: the game vs your nemesis was just fabulous. I sat through it in awe ^_^ but hey, also credit he sat through the whole ugin ult getting wrecked
This deck is really good but doesn't have enough potential to deal damage. I removed 1 narset, 1 aether gust, 1 omen, and 1 te4eri, and added 2 sharks, and 2 ominous seas. I also swapped the triomes for more UW lands. Deck is working great.
Always a masterclass
16:30 classic mistake with Narset on battlefield
Wow! Just wow!
45:25 I can only imagine the poor dude slamming the table screaming "FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF*K"
I live for hour long CGB control videos
New Teferi is much better than I thought it'd be.
Multiple mythic Rakdos sac players drawing into narset and calling into graffdigger's cage, that says a lot about this deck imo.
It is fun to see red mage try out sacdos, because the lack of thought really shows with this list.
“DONT Tap the Castle “ . Happens to the best of us
I like the deck. I was thinking of removing a dovin's veto in order to add a "ramp" card of some kind.

Shoutouts for the Azorious sqaud
This deck is hell. It is a nightmare vision. And it is beautiful.
Maybe I should try to keep track of how many times you've told me I'm cool 😂
Love it!
The sacrifice deck in game 1 trying to draw against Narset twice really sent me ngl
Game 1 MVP : Interplanar Beacon
Question. How would this go if you swapped field of ruin for a karns bastion? Help you get to the ults faster and gives you another option to do on their turns.
Holy shit, that last game! Dem feels!
That poor red mage... I mean, I'm an Aristocrats guy, so they hate me too. But... I don't torture them. I just hurt them while gaining life from them hurting me. This was a war crime.
Love watching you pilot your pet deck UW Control. Comment for the algorithm day 22
Legend!
Just awesome 😎
Cool deck. I feel that the games would have gone differently if you didn't draw 3-4 interplanar beacons every game though. I'm not the best magic player but wouldn't it be better to put a win condition card in the deck, or side board? It's a brilliant control deck but after you control the board you're just stuck beating them down with fae of wishes for 20 turns haha
