This deck ending up in some sort of brawl purgatory in the last match seems almost poetic, like these crimes against magic have consigned you to a very specific circle of heck. Good on you to prioritize the doggo.
Meh. It was just a game of chicken at that point. Nothing too interesting. Prioritizing his dog over "feeling good that he didn't concede" when nothing is on the line is pretty shitty ngl. The two shouldn't even come close to comparing.
I recently learned that in Chinese mythology, the monkey king Sun Wukong couldn’t be killed because he stacked seven different types of immortal. That’s this deck
@mikhailloskutov9352 There's also some form of immortality he learned from a monk and he removed his name from the records of the underworld which removes him from the jurisdiction of death.
It happens so ofen in that rigged mtga topdecking system though that I was 100% sure the opponent would top deck that exact card. Top decking the exact card needed in mtga is soooo common. Just as common as to top deck 15 lands in a row where literally any non land card left in your deck would do.
@@ODIRGO my friend the mtga team can't even program a functional autotapper, you think they have the capability to make a program that knows exactly what the best card to draw is?
Interestingly enough, Seth had the self-destruct button at in the last game. Teferi's Protection would phase out the Mutavault and make him lose instantly.
Watching that bonus game gave me the most ridiculous idea. Make a brawl deck that conjures cards (like oracle of alpha), in order to win a game of brawl with battle of wits. Sadly Battle of Wits isn't available in the brawl format so that dream died immediately. Maybe one day they'll put it in arena as a mistake. Haha.
On the "endless" match you could've still won. You would need to get a fresh hand from timetwister that has a Farewell. You choose all modes. With this farewell you can exile the Oracle of the Alpha to stop the opponent from getting more cards AND you also exile one timetwister. You repeat this process until you exile all timetwisters with Farewell, and then the opponent mills out.
I also kept expecting the opponent to mill Seth’s field of ruin in the last game and then reanimate it. Obviously Seth had defenses for that but depending on the reanimation it might be more repeatable than activating lightshield array
@@dazbonez3109 He doesn't need to play it - he needs to wait for timetwister to make him discard it and get a fresh hand. Enough times around and he'll eventually get enough mana out of his deck/on the field as well as enough looting effects to consistently empty his hand before activating deck.
Damn Seth, I wish I was there when you played that last game, I would've created a program that repeatedly press spacebar so you can let the game run and go to the vet, automatically passing your turn for eternity. Then we will have been to see how long opponent would've stayed here living the Yarok dream. 😂 It would've make quite an interesting experience actually :)
In the final game there were a few lines you could have taken. Use soul guide lantern to slowly exile their graveyard. Or deck of many things to grab a creature from their yard. But both can take a very long time.
one of my favorite surprise cards that gets more people than you'd think for this kind of deck. Paladin Class. A tax of 1 isn't a lot, but it stops people from actually casting anything on your turn if they aren't careful
Paladin Class is one of my fav all time cards. Taxing instants for one Mana, you can upgrade it into an anthem, and then a go-wide wincon-all paid in installments
I'm 2/3 of the way through Long Strange Trip, the Grateful Dead documentary, and I was a little surprised when Jerry justifies the Hell's Angels being around because "good doesn't mean much without evil." I think Seth going on a stax tear every once in a while is the low-key equivalent. The dao of Saffron Olive is to play the magic version of a jam band then let Blood Moon hang out backstage.
I love these!! If my opponent can somehow get me into locks like these or even less clever ones like infinite w/e’s - I don’t even get mad. I just spam good game and appreciate the thought that went into breaking the magic. Please make more ❤
That last game reminded me of the GW Heliod mirror matches in historic. If you're playing best of one, there's no time limit, even on the ladder. I've had single ladder games go for over two hours while we slogged back and forth, indestructible Voices getting our life totals into the thousands, scurry oak combos triggering both player's heliods on both sides so it's a game of chicken against the time-out bar. The early game is decided by who can stick the payoff and whether they can get enough value before both players have indestructible creatures and infinite combos. The late game is decided by scrying with Trelesara to see which person hits their one-of Ajani to clear the board. If no one's able to stick Trelasara to scry, the game becomes an absolute slog of long turns for one draw at a time trying to find the one-of out, and because both players know it's possible, sometimes neither one gives up, and it goes for hours.
I play a version of this deck, but with Reidane at the head. The artifact on the backside is exceptionally irritating against a lot of decks, particularly if you get out an Overwhelming Splendor. Also, with that deck, I had a game like the bonus one, but the opponent managed to force a draw by exploiting the limits of MTGA by making a MASSIVE creature token overrun with Scute Swarm.
Best bits I made a specific note of: - vs Jund Dragon Reanimator, Seth asking for the crowdsurfing Karn (hi Crim!) - near the end, at the start of the last game, we really needed Phil's BONUS GAME bit come up! As for how to end that game: - Either one of you have a way to blow up the Mutavault (which might mean you have to turn it into a creature) OR - Your opponent doesn't Timetwister anymore. Basically, if this was paper, a Judge would be called over and they'd say one of you has to make a different choice for the game to progress.
In timed rounds, it probably just goes to time, and I think the opponent has enough stuff going on that a judge would not usually call it. But yes, theoretically, in paper Seth wins here. His loop involves no choices, the opponent has to take actions (casting timetwister) to not deck. So the opponent has to stop.
He couldn't - by the time Avacyn was on the board so was Solemnity, which prevents counters from being put on Fall of Thran, so its ability wouldn't trigger to blow up lands.
This is the kind of Magic I like to play. Major props I love it. I did something similar in Historic and I have no idea why I haven't done this in brawl yet. Well, time to start!
I think the assumption was that the opponent had a hard counter somewhere in their hand, but yeah, I think he had a couple convoluted outs. Farewell/Soul-Guide Lantern exiling things also seems like it might eventually be able to pull it off? If you can exile the guy who makes more timetwisters from the grave or field, their ability to be truly infinite goes away? As a bonus, every time you cast farewell you also reduce your deck size, making it more and more likely that you'll draw it off the next timetwister and get another chance at exiling the oracle, although that does pretty much lock you in to winning exactly this way, and maybe your opponent can play around it by casting and killing the oracle on the same turn and then immediately time twistering? That wouldn't work against Lantern though
To do that though, Seth must have an empty hand to do it as The Deck of Many Things will always subtract the die roll with the amount of card he has on hands. Kinda impossible to get the 20 result if Timetwister is always giving him a full hand
@@amirunsyafiq Even if we assume opponent is able to play timetwister every single turn (which I don't think is the case), Seth would eventually be able to get enough lands out of his deck as well as looting effects to be able able to play/dump his entire hand in a single turn before triggering deck. It's not a fast win condition (unless Seth got very lucky), but it is a win condition.
Discard, hard control, stax - arena is a great place to play them, because in real life poeple would just stop playing agains me, if I had all these decks :D
When I saw the deck tech I thought, "Man, this deck is so toxic." Then I watched the games. It seemed like so much fun that I built a lighter version of the deck with just three locks and its just so entertaining to play! The locks I chose were Book & Mutavault, Elesh Norn and Overwhelming Splendor and, of couse, Deification with Gideon. It's difficult enough to get the combo pieces together that it doesnt feel cheap and its so funny and satisfying when opponents keep trying to kill you and get thwarted that this has become my favourite deck. EDIT: I added the Helm of The Host as a win con. Since deification is my main, and most successful lock to assemble, I thought this was a perfect addition.
Add faithbound judge, the flip side "sinner's judgement" is a three turn timer that gives you an alternate win con should your opponent snowball a combo deck that you can't reasonably kill quickly
I somewhere read a comment that sums this up pretty well: "Seth subscribes to the deck building philosophy that fun in MTG is a 0-sum-game and he's having all of it."
When you played Search for Glory in that epic game, you should have grabbed Reidane. The artifact side would have prevented the damage that the emblems were doing as well as help protect gideon.
the format where people regularly scoop to any form of countermagic or removal on their commander? Before watching this video I absolutely expect constant instant concessions.
bro I am one of those that scoop to counter magic, like c'mon man this is a format where I allow you to play your jank you allow me to do the same haha I really hate mono blue in historic brawl
A cool deck you could do similarish to this is a deck built around a nine lives solemnity lock, or any lock that prevents you from taking damage, and then the monarch and initiative mechanics, since you can only steal them with combat damage.
The fact that you considered canceling an appointment for your dog for a game of magic the gathering that literally neither of you could win is such a Magic player mindset and that’s hilarious
This was around 10 years ago, but I played a stupid mono green ramp deck against a mono red burn deck. I was able to drop down a platinum angel and put a lightning Greaves on it, and he had not put in any artifact removal, he figured it wouldn't matter. He was so salty in the tournament, in paper magic, that he legitimately refused to concede and kept killing all the green creatures I was dropping until finally my board got too big. We were the only game still playing, and it was to the point where everyone around was embarrassed for him for how salty he was acting. It's one of those moments that makes you realize, no matter what happens, having integrity matters more than a card game.
An idea for a deck: infinite damage "squee, the immortal". As the name suggest you use squee the immortal to cause infinite etb triggers to deal damage with things like "terror of peaks" or "witty roastmaster". to make squee infinite you can use "birgi, god of storytelling,", "relic of legends" and "skirk prospector" also can use "monument of hazoret" to get infinite hand cycling after the squee casting loop is made. for the infinite etb you will need a way to sacrifice squee so skirk prospector comes in handy in that way, but other sac outlets may help as well.
I had a game like the bonus game, on arena once. Had it on my lunch break at work. Kept playing until the shift ended. Kept it going on my phone as I drove home. It was several hours. The client crashed and I restarted the client multiple times. It was glorious. AND I WON.
In the bonus game, you can't run out of Timetwisters if you have 2. The second one shuffles the first one back in and the first one will shuffle the third back in, the only way to win at that point would be the god pharoh statue for pinging if they couldn't get rid of it. I'm assuming they take infinite turns as well?
Timetwister doesn't exile itself. It would always loop as long as there's two of them. If you had any land destruction in your bin that he could recur, it could end.
This deck ending up in some sort of brawl purgatory in the last match seems almost poetic, like these crimes against magic have consigned you to a very specific circle of heck. Good on you to prioritize the doggo.

He also had a win-con in deck of many things 😂
Opponent also had the possibility of stealing the Field of Ruin from his deck and winning with that, however indeterminate that wincon is.
That last game, you know the opponent was having the time of their life
Repeating the same crap for 1hr? Or just quit and move on. Or play the BOT for combos.
I was super jealous. It's like the dream for a Yarok player.
@MTGGoldfish won't let me post a comment normally but I don't see the deck list pinned in the comments. Is it not? Or is it just not showing for me?
@@MTGGoldfish could've joined the fun with the bag of many things 😂 maybe you roll the random 20

After hearing all the locks in the intro, I am now convinced that this deck is Seth's greatest hits album
Basically lol
The absolute pain of a bunch of giant dragons becoming 1/1 due to a literal dice roll then dying on top of all that
On the "endless" match you could've still won. You would need to get a fresh hand from timetwister that has a Farewell. You choose all modes. With this farewell you can exile the Oracle of the Alpha to stop the opponent from getting more cards AND you also exile one timetwister. You repeat this process until you exile all timetwisters with Farewell, and then the opponent mills out.
Soul guide lantern and overwhelming splendor works too. Splendor stops new copies and soul guide ditches graves as the shuffle is on the stack.
He was also shuffling a bunch of time walks back into the deck, seth might not have gotten a turn to cast farewell
Deck of many things, which he has the opportunity to cast @ 1:02:30 is probably a better/faster wincon.
@@kymballhight1659 Also Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite and Overwhelming Splendor could allow attacking if they could stick on the board.
@@masaufuku1735 but Seth must have an empty hand to do this. How is he getting an empty hand with Timetwister always giving him a new hand.
That's kind of crazy that the Yarok deck didnt have acidic slime, terastodon, or even field of ruin to double up on their landfalls.
Last time they ever make that mistake xD
All of those can be answered by animating the mutavault
@@evankraabel5415 I don't think so. Most of them just say target land, not target non-creature and animated Mutavault is a creature and a land

Thank you for prioritizing Bear over the game. Real life, especially pets, should always win.
Reminds me of my old school stasis/howling mine deck back in the day. It was fun once then despised!

this deck should be called the sunwukong deck with all these layers of "I can't lose the game" layers XD
In the bonus game, you can't run out of Timetwisters if you have 2. The second one shuffles the first one back in and the first one will shuffle the third back in, the only way to win at that point would be the god pharoh statue for pinging if they couldn't get rid of it. I'm assuming they take infinite turns as well?
love historic brawl content always. Thank you for this
Glad you liked it!
Timetwister doesn't exile itself. It would always loop as long as there's two of them.
If you had any land destruction in your bin that he could recur, it could end.
I love the take state created by the bonus match
Great deck theme! Brother has like 5 Salty deck themes.
Finally magic the way it was intended to be played.
Thank you for another historic brawl deck!!!
Avacyn Angel of hope + Overwhelming Splendor + Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite. Is a very overpowered combo as it makes all of them indestructible too
This was delicious. I hope you will bring something like this when you return on commander clash, maybe for an all salt episode
I’m very pleased by Historic Brawl content. Thank you MTG 🐠
Man, that game vs Narset was so cool, it felt like watching a movie. lol After all it's just like Arena says: everyone likes a good comeback story.
