    When this deck was created these cards cost around $300. Due to the volatile market prices as this deck gains popularity, some prices may have gone up.

    • @RvBnerd618
      @RvBnerd618 Год назад

      In my experience, prices also varies where you get the cards as it depends where the seller is shipping from and what your local game store is offering. Doesn't include any perks like Coolstuff giving you a discount on singles if you have been a continued client for their storefront and what condition those cards in question are in.
      When in doubt, always remember: Heavily used and damaged cards also needs a home.

    You can still user the multi kicker on everflowing chalice if you hit it off a cascade, so you could still kick it if you have open mana

    This deck is INSANE ive been smashing people with this $300 (now $600) version in MTGO. Well done upgrade guys, this might be the most fun deck I've played. I regret blowing so much money on my sliver deck bc this one blows slivers out of the water in terms of power.

    Conduit of ruin is one i think you missed in both videos and should definitely be considered :) great videos. thank you for the help with my upgrade!

    • @jacobwiren8142
      @jacobwiren8142 Год назад +4

      Indeed, if you double cascade and hit conduit first, it enters the battlefield and its etb trigger goes on the stack before the second cascade. So, you can tutor the perfect spell and put it on top of your library and cascade into it immediately!

  • @a.wurtzner
    @a.wurtzner Год назад +3

    Very good cuts and additions, particularly for the budget. I would possibly reconsider cutting Abstruse Archaic, as it can copy mana-rock abilities, it can copy annihilator with some of those large Eldrazi creatures that are in the deck, and it has a lot of utility that will be able to help in the early game. In general, the main focus of the upgrades will usually be to ensure that the deck can maintain a board state through either drawing, cascading, and/or having the mana keep throwing cards onto the board. Abstruse Archaic helps all but to trigger the cascade, cascade on its own cast, but can assist in doing so on the cast of other creatures later in the game.
    We have a -a lot- of wastes to cut for better lands. Shrine of the forsaken gods is a solid stable and mage-ring network can help with mana setup. We do not need 15 wastes or even 10 wastes in the deck. Cutting those will likely help the potential for the deck to get out of sticky situations.

    I don’t think this is a bad deck that shouldn’t be recommended. It can definitely win games in the right power level of course and it’s super fun. Great deck and amazing upgrades as always guys!

  • @nathaniellee6934
    @nathaniellee6934 Год назад +3

    Ive seen other suggestions about cards such as, Commander's Plate, Palantir of Orthanc, Realmbreaker, the Invasion Tree and as utility artifacts could bring some value outside of just ramping fruit for thought

    • @MareczqZglos
      @MareczqZglos Год назад

      It would be not that big a diffrence just even faster. You would just add Mana Crypt, Grim Monolith , Mox Opal + Keys to utap them to make the mana even stronger. Problem is if you go so "hard" on any deck it start to look more, and more like cEDH... and then you cannot play it on normal table, becose its to powerfull... but the main startegy (ramp to big eldrazi) is not good for cEDH ether :D So you end up with deck that cannot be played in most of tables ;P

    I like the ancient tomb idea But one addition to that, If we're willing to spend that much of the budget on one land card then might as well spend 3 bucks On a expedition map so you get to see that powerful land twice as often

  • @leonidasangelus8079
    @leonidasangelus8079 Год назад

    I know this was a little bit ago, but I have found an awesome card you guys may wanna try, wandering archaic, he's been a great little addition to keep my opponents in check with what they play, AND allows me to get the power of colors I don't have, it's great in place of the archaic already in the deck, but running both has also been pretty great. Wandering has defs gotten me some amazing effects from green and blue, and black and white start questioning whether or not they wanna keep him around, and red so far has been pretty indeterminate against him, they haven't decided if they like that more things get popped, or if they don't like that I can just throw it back in their face when they pop a goblin fodder or token spell.
    Skittering invasion is also great, I popped that one on turn 4, and before I even got the tokens, I cascaded into an emrakul and then a winnower, and then got a nice ulamog off with those tokens from skittering. It's good to note I only could do this because WA was on my field, and I got off a couple really nice mana ramping effects, making this pop off really fast, and my opponents basically had nothing to counter three big smashers, without losing their own permanents and effects to annihilator or archaic

    Great job on this deck upgrade. I personally can see why you wouldn't recommend this deck, although some of the inclusions like Ancient Tomb and Urza's Saga being a good inclusion in many decks does mean that people can easily transfer them to other builds as time goes on. I'm glad that Wizards are easy on what card's worthy of being banned instead of making their banlist based on what their new set is like to increase sales, that's one of the main reasons I swapped to Commander after leaving the game for a while during the beginning of covid when Wizard experimented with the cheap precons from Zendikar Rising.
    I've come to love eternal formats from card games, although the one game I barely play now at days only really haves two formats and is struggling in the west since the game got rebooted TWICE, overtime I can see it come back but they still got some ways to go. Playing Commander makes me appreciate how many ways you can play Magic the Gathering with your locals and friends, hell one time at lunch from my work, there was a group of guys playing a "rush" version of Commander with lands already at play at the start of the game and they just let the Chaos ensure! Once you get to know how Magic still becomes relevant to this day comes down to many elements, from player interactions regardless of who's turn it is, to multiple ways to play, even having collabs and alternative arts in the form of Secret Lair all contributes to why people still enjoy and play Magic.

    EDIT 2: Why cut Shrine of the Forsaken Gods, I don't understand your explanation. What are you replacing it with, a Wastes that will guaranteed only ever tap for one colorless? Makes no sense to me.

    So with the lands, why take out temple of the false gods? It think it doesn't hurt having it in there vs a regular wastes, theres no downside to having it, it doesn't tap when it comes in. And like other colorless lands even if their extra ability is extremely rare to use its still a chance you could use it over a wastes that does nothing. Is there something im missing?

    • @GuysThatMagic
      @GuysThatMagic  10 месяцев назад

      Temple of the False God doesn’t do anything unless you have 4 other lands including itself. The odds, while they may be lower, have a possibility of the land never working. For example if you drew that land after your opening hand or you are mana stalled. It’s just a better thing to guarantee you can tap a land for mana.

This is def a money sink deck, but honestly winning with eldrazi stompy stompy vs infinite combo decks feels good, you just 1000000% must have the expensive mana rocks to give you a chance or youre fucked. I easily dropped 700 into my deck upgrades, and fuckkkkkkkkkkk I have so much fun playing it, Its just such a board threat that it turns the entire game into pure chaos. Also foil textured all my titans because if im dropping the thicc james of colorless, theyre gonna look fucking good, even if they get countered lmao. Cavern of souls in this deck is a must. Nothing like someone trying to counter thiiiiiiicccc boi when they forgot about cavern of souls, yes, please reveal the counter in your hand that wont work. mwahahaha. ahhh i love magic.
