Thanks, I appreciate the thought, but know I am really happy with the sub number. Never thought I would get this far, still excited every day to make videos for you
I'm just so amazed by your dedication to what you do. It's not just that you're making daily content, sometimes even more than once a day: I can't remember ever thinking that a video wasn't entertaining, that the actual gameplay commentary was not on point or that I ever had difficulties to understand a deck's mechanics and win cons due to the great intros. Keep it up, I bet your videos are part of thousands of people's daily routines and rightfully so!
This 2022 que provides great, tight, tough, grindy games, love it. Two games in this vid I was certain, were over for CGB and his big brain and top decks saved the day.
I made a deck similar to this yesterday. Discovered the turn 3 gold span dragon through treasures combo on my on, accidentally lol. Got matched against a red/blue Izzet deck in the standard play que (doing my daily red/black missions) & ramped out a turn 3 gold span that also allowed me a turn 4 gold span off the top 😂. Izzet player salty scooped on turn 6 after bouncing my dragons several times giving me unlimited mana which allowed me to keep replaying them over & over in the same turn. Also had a Painter on the field that pumped my dragons even more 😂.
A card that I absolutely love in my rakdos midrange and my grixxis control, even it seems to be not that great ... it's "You Find some Prisonners". This card is most of the time a game changer. You can destroy artefact (can be good), but you exile 3 cards on top of your opponent library and you can play it. Very powerfull to grab some extra lands, in early shut down opponent"s draws because event if you can't play the cards ... they are gone forever after that. In late game, you can grab an epiphany, a dragon, a treath or some blockers ... and opponent don't like that at all. Spending a counter for that is painful because it's instant speed for 2 mana ... it can brain a lot.
Showdown goblins is indeed a fun time. Goblins are an underrated tribal for standard 2022, they don't look as good on paper as they actually are and I think it's partially due to the fact that there's so few rare goblins available (just 3 and honestly only 1 that is necessary) Showdown and rally the ranks really gives them a boost.
To be fair, stumbling into something almost no one notices is _very_ true to the gelatinous cube experience. It just usually involves the cube itself and not that non-Ooze clause. (Note that this does mean that Cube can't eat Faceless Haven.)
Awesome version of rakdos treasures! As for the modifications, I would say that you should keep 4x Kalain. Any 2 mana treasure creator that also puts a body on the field is awesome for this deck! Also if you flood with Kalain, casting a second is not bad, as you could potentially turn him from a 1/2 in to a 3/4! Also drop 2x frost bite for baleful masterys maybe even drop the shatterskull smashing as well for 3x mastery.
Played against a guy today that was playing Dimir and only ran counters, spot removal had no permanents. His only win con was hall of the storm giants and mascot exhibition. Very fun.
I've had success with a similar deck, except its mardu, swapping the frostbite for vanishing verse. I have immersturm predator instead of the cubes but once I have a playset of cubes I'll try them. Also has a couple of copies of Kaya.
Hey mate, I just started playing MTG (online& in ,,Real life") and your deck profiles already helped me out. Thanks for that! It would be great, if you could answer the following three questions for me: 1. Are these decks only working online, or is it possible to play competitive in ,,real life" 2. Is it possible, that you gonna calculate how much we probably have to spend, if we would like to get the full deck? 3. Can you build a competitive dragon-standard-deck? Thank you very much and keep up the great work!
everytime i think I've made an original cool deck idea, CGB comes in the next day with a better one, with the same architype. Magic man. great deck, cool games, you rock cgb
So I know you wanted to put gelatinous cube in this deck but since you have so much removal and your already in snow black do you think 2 drauger necromancer would be better? Also if you disagree that you have enough removal for drauger than what if we took out the other 2 gelatinous and added tundra furmol. Anyone have Thoughts?
The problem with both those cards is that they aren't aggro cards. They are value. This is an aggro deck. Competitive advantage is about picking one thing and being the best at it. So Tundra funarole and Dragur might be great fits in a value strategy. But that would be a very different deck.
You know it's better than playing orcas playing him back-to-back sweeping the board and then bringing all your creatures back my opponent must have lost his mind when he saw that
I’m curious if you think Radkos sacrifice featuring Extus/Awaken the Blood Avatar is playable in 2022. Also curious if there is any kind of Simic Ramp deck that’s playable. I keep trying to make some kind of Jorn, God of Winter + Spirit of the Aldegard deck work, but even at the bottom of the rung it’s pretty janky.
100% need to look at warlock class. You can level 3 so easy with goldspan and win the game. I also cut valki for kroxa and play skyckavr shade over eye twitch for more gy Synergy. I also like immerstrum predator bc it just doesn’t die. Overall like how aggro this deck plays
Against the goblins: he was saying he needed a 1/1 haster from the opps deck with Tibalt. Why not kill the one on the board with Tibalts -3 and then you get that card to play - that’s lethal right or am I missing something? Cool gameplay btw!
I got this deck just recently and I've gone 0-6 with it in platinum. This is a terrible deck in 2022 standard. I spend so many wildcards on it just to get a horrible deck. Thanks again CGB. Nobody should ever make this deck.
CGB 1) says we can leave deck suggestions in the comments. 2) says “this doesn’t seem fair” and 3) is playing decks with creatures in them. Always knew you were a big softy.
Oh yeah and if u need a small boardwipe instead 👍 gets past indestructible also, if you manage to dump like 4 into it then its orcus body with languish attached 😏
hello I have been following you for a few weeks, your contents are beautiful and interesting, I ask for a courtesy and it is possible to insert subtitles in Italian ? thanks you are 🔝🔝🔝🔝
Did anyone else enjoy that epic top deck?
I enjoyed the nickname even more
Just a small question: since when does wizards print creatures that are a human and an elf? (Except shapeshifters) I‘m just confused🤔
@@kratix0469 It's a thing in D&D that there are half-human/half-elf people, so they did it now in the D&D set.
FREE WILLY!
Clutch topdeck

Thanks, I appreciate the thought, but know I am really happy with the sub number. Never thought I would get this far, still excited every day to make videos for you
Definitely agree. This man's content has saved me from having to interact with people on many occasions
@@covertgoblue you keep making them I'll keep watching them!
25:30 The "...you're no student of mine." really got me!
"Angels and Demons working together because they're all very fans of clerical work" is such a good line
It's been so long since midrange was a viable deck that I don't even know how to play that archetype anymore.
Right? Eldraine pushed aggro and control so much that my midrange skills have withered. Looking forward to getting back into it in Standard '22
i play midrange in modern so if its good in standard maybe ill play arena again lol
Rakdos is a big thing in standard challenges, always ends in top 8, last challenge rakdos won... Just not good in this bo1 stupidity
if only standard 22 allowed best of 3, then midrange could really shine even more.
@@doormatt72 wouldn't it be all izzet ?? It has insane sideboarding

Gelatinous Cube needs to gain counters or life or something when it dissolves a creature.
MAKE A TREASURE
I wish it had flash. But would probably be too OP
Nah wizards did a great job keeping all the d&d stuff true to their spirit. Oozes dont generate life or create treasure etc in the actual game
Should hit walkers too.
I also think, it is pretty fine and it wouldn‘t fit that good.
Imagine CGB making a parody of Staying Alive by the BeeGees because he’s always staying alive in the smartest ways. CGBeeGees.
This 2022 que provides great, tight, tough, grindy games, love it. Two games in this vid I was certain, were over for CGB and his big brain and top decks saved the day.
Hahaha 27:47 so great. Especially going back to that mono green video when CGB joked about this interaction and his pick of Oran-Rief Ooze
Oh damn, the actual CGB, the myth, the man, the legend, recording the voice-over on the tiny ad on his own video. That's kinda low key badass as hell.
speaking of cube: I put it in dimir snow and it's so nice as a beater/blocker and removal. it helps hold the battlefield until you get to your top end
"There's Mono white... everywhere.."
Orcus: And I took that personally.
Thanks I need these videos to distract me from doing my job!
You should be fired lol
@@aaronloiselle3651 Oh most definitely. If they weren't desperate I would be lol.
at 36:10, could we have killed the goblin javelineer and guaranteed that we could cast a 1/1 haste?
Yes
Yes, but i think cgb is worried of a removal spell and lose on a counter attack. He has already developed his board, so he can wait another turn.
@@RadTrooper seems a lot more like he just didn't see it. lol.
16:14 Don't talk to me or my goblin deck ever again
36:00 if you minus tibalt on javlineer you can play it for the 1/1 haste you needed
It's always a good day when CGB makes a Rakdos Deck.
I've been playing Immerstrum Predator in my Rakdos decks and I love it.
Great Deck!

"Aughhh, grossly delightful" Comment after crushing mono white tells me that CGB shares the same values as me!

I just made it to diamond for the first time from using your witherbloom deck, modified for use in 2022. Keep up the good content!
Gotta say the coolstuff ad you made yourself is much better than the other one

I did not look away in game 1. Oh the humanity!
Orcus enters: mono white instant scoop
That was so immensely satisfying
To be fair, stumbling into something almost no one notices is _very_ true to the gelatinous cube experience. It just usually involves the cube itself and not that non-Ooze clause. (Note that this does mean that Cube can't eat Faceless Haven.)
The Orcus is a nice boardwipe for Rakdos, I was planning to play draconic interventions but man, Orcus is so strong

10:15 was gnarly.
This is some top notch quality content...def a new sub here!
“Ohh we can cube twice” face @ 13:06
When you were reading out the ooze I was like... You're 100% going to try and hit an oran rief with that. Lo an behold there it was xD
Yeah I ran into that issue where autopay won't give you the option to _not_ use treasure tokens. I hope they fix that.
That last match was crazy. GG's

that orzhov control deck looked pretty cool
"Grossly delightful ..." :)
Always right on time for content
10:11 -- Well, we now know what a CGB nut bust sounds like
Man, that last match was a real nail biter 😮
I wish the videos started with “yo, it’s me it’s me it’s CGB”
You know it's better than playing orcas playing him back-to-back sweeping the board and then bringing all your creatures back my opponent must have lost his mind when he saw that
35:55 you could have -3 the valki on their haste goblin then played it for lethal, valki lets you cast cards exiled with all of his abilities
I’m curious if you think Radkos sacrifice featuring Extus/Awaken the Blood Avatar is playable in 2022. Also curious if there is any kind of Simic Ramp deck that’s playable. I keep trying to make some kind of Jorn, God of Winter + Spirit of the Aldegard deck work, but even at the bottom of the rung it’s pretty janky.
Lolth, Spider Queen could be another top end option, as you said could trim a few cards to 3 ofs to squeeze her in.
pause at 25:25 :D
When you going to do a standard 2022 goblin deck review? I know how much you love mono red aggro decks ;)
Deck looks really fun nonetheless. Would a vorpal sword help this deck turn lethal faster?
100% need to look at warlock class. You can level 3 so easy with goldspan and win the game. I also cut valki for kroxa and play skyckavr shade over eye twitch for more gy Synergy. I also like immerstrum predator bc it just doesn’t die. Overall like how aggro this deck plays
Built a Orcus Brawl deck. Pretty shitty but having a sweeper in the command zone is super handy
Pity it doesn’t scale like Verazol
Against the goblins: he was saying he needed a 1/1 haster from the opps deck with Tibalt. Why not kill the one on the board with Tibalts -3 and then you get that card to play - that’s lethal right or am I missing something? Cool gameplay btw!
People often forget that they can cast what their exiled, but good point!
17:30 Second Verse, same as the first
Wonderful Rakdos Deck! I am your fan, Ouroboros in the Arena. Hope to fight against you someday! Hugs from Italy 🇮🇹
Why is there a Clip function on this video?
Brothers. The time nears for my resurgence. Woofers a Glampires are on the horizon. Be there or be mishapen
"Weak stomac" hahaha I replay it 10 times
IN best of one Eye Twitch is probably the best 1 drop besides Ghast, but the Scorpion might be better in Bo3. The life gain works well with Orcus.
CGB: „Question. What kind of bear is best?“
Ladder: „That’s a ridiculous question.“
CGB: „False. Bugbear.“
Oooh baby a Rakdos deck. Nice!
those were some epic games holy moly
What happened to your sweet rank?
Rakdos is back, hell yeah!
CGB- Non-ooze, it’s an ooze! Ha
Me- it’s an 8/7 tho
I play red mostly and I can say my deck is weird. I have goblins for the low end and dragons on the high end. Including goldspans
You missed lethal at 36:10
Instead of exiling the top cards with Valki/Tibalt, you could’ve exiled the 1/1 haste goblin and swung out for exactly 10.
33:49 Boy are you lucky he didn't see the line of saccing the 2 Chargers to kill your two treasures. You didn't either.
Mythic players, sheesh...
the nerd beard is strong with this one
That ooze on ooze action though 😏
I got this deck just recently and I've gone 0-6 with it in platinum. This is a terrible deck in 2022 standard. I spend so many wildcards on it just to get a horrible deck. Thanks again CGB. Nobody should ever make this deck.
Was waiting for a failed cube engulf haven attempt, because haven is all creature types, and non-ooze, for the second time it'd be relevant.
3rd turn Goldspan! Is it Christmas already? Wait, what?! Never mind.
CGB 1) says we can leave deck suggestions in the comments. 2) says “this doesn’t seem fair” and 3) is playing decks with creatures in them. Always knew you were a big softy.
In historic Orcus x1 to bring back archfiend vessel, I play a singleton historic mardu list and orcus for x1 or x2 can be amazing
Oh yeah and if u need a small boardwipe instead 👍 gets past indestructible also, if you manage to dump like 4 into it then its orcus body with languish attached 😏
Just realized x2 -2/-2 is 6 mana in total so this card can basically be poormans massacre wurm too, this card is crazy versatile
Instead of frostbite i play the one mana red card who takes a 3 or less mana creature that oppo controls so i can sac it after :3
Every time I play devour intellect the opponent quits tho lol
Actually Gelatinous Cube is more reminiscent of Faceless Butcher
8:54 Is that a Brawl Stars reference?
*Gleaming The Gelatinous Cube*
What annoys me about Gelatinous cube is the toughness of 3. Gets kill easy by frost bite.
Goblin decks are weird? Jim Davis might have something to say about that lol
hello I have been following you for a few weeks, your contents are beautiful and interesting, I ask for a courtesy and it is possible to insert subtitles in Italian ? thanks you are 🔝🔝🔝🔝
Man I could do it actually, for example ;)
Even my goblin/d20 deck got goldspans dragons
why is he using snow covered land? does that matter? sorry i am noob
Not the same without the Elder giant :P That card is just too good :P !!!!!
Mono white insta scooping, love to see it
I like this. This is neat
Thanks for the content
CKC! Free Orcus, Prince of Undeath!
Well, it's NOT a boring deck for sure. 😁😅
Boomer, checking in, and my Nekrataal is an indication of snazz and pep : )
show the dimir,izzet,sultai matchups

Good luck against my yellow purple control deck.
