Idk why but your comment about sacrificing the fish token with 7 stun counters to put it out of its misery made me laugh so much. Really entertaining video.
Great video and deck as always LVD! Would love another crafting session from the Bob Ross video again, since I aspire to be a better deck builder myself and learning how to put cards together is a great way to start!
In game 2 against Boros, I probably would have copied their Talent and the Forge to "steal" their draw engine. With two Talents and two Forges, you'd be getting 4 cards every turn and every future Dopplegang would have drawn even more cards since all the copies are tokens. Then you could use the Meteors to tick up the Talents, copying a Talent and a Meteor to keep the draw/ramp loop going.
Very nice, thank you Luca! I think this is actually the (only) best part after a rotation: we get to see cool new decks for standard, and you played this one beautifully! Keep it up ;) Thomas H
put yourself in the other player's shoes. Both on topdeck mode, they have a freshly leveled bandit talent and 6 lands, you ult sacrificing lilly with no cards in hand left... they're taking the talent, any land is a bonus. I have fond memories of ulting lilly in modern and legacy :o) always a pleasure making the opponent struggle with difficult choices.
Running something similar but with 4x Obstinate Baloth, now that discard is falling away from meta I might change it up to include more anti aggro which has become more common in its place. That being said, I would rather lose to aggro than lose to discard decks
You had me with doppelgäng ….. I run a deck I call Dune. G-W-B desert deck with boardwipes . And than there is Children of Dune G-B-Blk with bill and the lizard landfall guy ……and boardwipe. Both have doppelgäng and lots of ramp .
I played this list today but dropped a Roxanne and Bonnie Paul for 2 Fecund Greenshells. It ramped more consistently and I had fun having more dopplegang targets. Thanks for the list!
I think if we're building around Calendar we're usually aiming for a more controlling approach which doesn't involve creatures. At that point we wouldn't get the most out of the Talent. I have built a deck around Calendar with All Will be One before and had fun with it!
33:16, just wait for their turn to uptick, before using torch the tower, so they would be down a card and a PW. No point in playing it sorcery speed, right?
Would force us to sacrifice the extra Meteorite to deal 3 damage, which doesn't seem worth it. Since adding loyalty to a Planeswalker is part of the activation cost, there's no responding to it while still only having 2 loyalty.
I have just started instant conceding against mono black discard. I get no joy from the match up and if their super cool strategy is me putting my deck directly in the bin I won't waste their time with something silly like playing the game

THis is why they are my fav MTGtoober. Seth is great but the technical prowess, I always learn something new.
That fish has been shock-frosted
10:44
6:00 really enjoying the extra flair you've been adding with the editing lately, keep it up!
It's so tasteful from LVD, only sprinkled here and there, making each time truly precious 💕
yeahhh it's looking so damn good
the “What’s the play?” bit was SOOOO good! Thanks for keeping the standard high for Arena content, honestly one of if not the best in the game!!
I see what you did there 😄
Yeah, that was just wasting a card. "Opponent, you're not gruul... If you can't give that shit hexproof, a pump isn't gonna do jack all..."
Rage against the machine!
Sacrifice the fish to bargain; mercifully freeing it from its thousand year slumber
09:03 That poor fish will not see the light of the day for a decade
😂😂😂 "do nothing" was the right answer!!! 😂😂😂😂
For the second time in a row, if I'm not mistaken
it's really entertaining watching mono red netdeckers try to puzzle their way through how cards work
Match 4 was a GRIND, but it was still awesome to see! 🔥🤘
Spoiler alert: LvD wins most his games.
Eh he actually doesn't win. What a twist!
You could put this on literally ant video he posts, right? It's an unfortunate fact for any edited video showcasing a card game
Great video and deck as always LVD! Would love another crafting session from the Bob Ross video again, since I aspire to be a better deck builder myself and learning how to put cards together is a great way to start!
15:20 had the opportunity to make a token caretakers gift, that can get pretty crazy!
Two token caretaker's gifts, with the Meteor to gradually tick them up!
@@KhanShotFirst yep, copy meteors, use the meteors to copy themselves…
You are really upping your video quality with these great edits and funny comments. Keep up the good work!
Somehow stunning your own unit for 9 turns seems worse than just sacrificing it.
I appreciate you holding full control to mess with the opponent!
Love the inclusion of the who wants to be a millionaire answers in recent videos. The answer is always rage against the machine though 🙂
The fish token getting imprisoned under a tectonic plate, to be bound for generations to come.
That Match 4 was impressive.. not sure about LVD immediately cashing in the Liliana.
That fish is probably still stunned 😂
your editing is awesome and informative. keep it up
wait these edits are amazing, thank you for the best narration and backround videos i could ask for

Im loving the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire pop ups xD
man this liliana-game really was a Wechselbad der Gefühle, epic
Rroooooooxxaannneee you don't have to turn on the red light
9:17 i wonder why the ability has the wrong card style
Freestrider in place of Clifftop?
I love how the who wants to be a millionaire bit has shown up specifically with people trying to pump creatures thinking valiant will save it.
Red brain strikes again
Match 4 was possibly the best game I’ve ever seen from your channel and one of the best games I’ve ever seen on arena
maybe you're a new player, but that game was really boring, and a topdeck war. Black player played poorly, and probably has 23 lands in his deck
36:26 I think you lost this match here. A 1/2 and a 12th mana source is not worth ~10 cards.
Trying to hold cards in hand against a discard deck is usually a losing battle.
But certainly could've considered holding them in hand there.
@@LegenVD Yeah, you probably were going to loose anyway at that point, but considering it was a topdeck war, it seems like the better play.
You I’m sure.
Remember guys
1. Not all pump spells increase toughness.
2. Exile replacement always avoid dying trigger.
put yourself in the other player's shoes. Both on topdeck mode, they have a freshly leveled bandit talent and 6 lands, you ult sacrificing lilly with no cards in hand left... they're taking the talent, any land is a bonus.

9:30 imagine creating 4 more Cornocopias
Running something similar but with 4x Obstinate Baloth, now that discard is falling away from meta I might change it up to include more anti aggro which has become more common in its place.
That being said, I would rather lose to aggro than lose to discard decks
It's amazing how they finally started winning once they ran out of Liliana's to cripple themselves with.
This deck is terrible, I dont belive i spent my wild cards on this....
Going to replace top enders with urabrasks forge to see if improves.
@legenvd Any chance you will do a review of the precon decks MTGA started selling for braw andl standard?
I faced a deck where they cast 2 Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger and used 2 Ugin ultimates and I still won. It was hilarious.
This is like a Modern-only Three Card Blind, a fun niche format kind of like magic fantasy sports.
Wow... the game against Mono-Black was, wait for it, Legend(ary)... 🙂
For budget reasons I put in 2 copies of 3 steps ahead and they have been performing extraordinary well
6:10 thats a trick question cause doin nothing AND chilling to the battle of L.A. would be the correct answer
Hindsight is 20/20, but I think playing Lookout at 36:30 was a blunder.
nissa who shakes the world would be good in this deck, especially her ultimate and extra mana ability
These "who wants to be a millionaire" fails are brilliantly hilarious. Feel bad for the poor idiots who see themselves on this channel 😂
Your recent opponents have NOT wanted to be millionaires.
lvd always goated
31:50
discard your bomb 1 drop instead of playing it lmao
sad that you lost to someone this terrible
Do not try to reason with a monored player. Only they know what the intent of their action is... or do they ?
Did that fish deserve to be buried in stun counters? nice to see an off meta creative deck.
Legend is the real Slickshot Show-off with the editing!
9:03 My reasoning behind 80% of all of my decisions
It's a good thing the opponents know where the scoop button is, isn't it?
I gotta know now: what does Rage Against The Machine does?
man that millionare music takes me back.
Love to see a similar deck but running ovika as the top end
The who wants to be a millionaire got me laughing hard 😂
Bro, this video is the funniest so far 😂 nicely done
I absolutely loved the who wants to be a millionaire edit! Funny stuff right there.
You had me with doppelgäng ….. I run a deck I call Dune. G-W-B desert deck with boardwipes . And than there is Children of Dune G-B-Blk with bill and the lizard landfall guy ……and boardwipe.
Both have doppelgäng and lots of ramp .
I like the new WWBM segments
Is this the dumbest Standard ever?
I played this list today but dropped a Roxanne and Bonnie Paul for 2 Fecund Greenshells. It ramped more consistently and I had fun having more dopplegang targets. Thanks for the list!
"Guess who wins?" - why, we the viewers of course
Hey @LegenVD, do you think you could brew something with millenium calendar and inkeepers talent?`
I think if we're building around Calendar we're usually aiming for a more controlling approach which doesn't involve creatures. At that point we wouldn't get the most out of the Talent. I have built a deck around Calendar with All Will be One before and had fun with it!
I love the second instance of "What's the Play?". Your understated humor is always fantastic.
33:16, just wait for their turn to uptick, before using torch the tower, so they would be down a card and a PW. No point in playing it sorcery speed, right?
Would force us to sacrifice the extra Meteorite to deal 3 damage, which doesn't seem worth it. Since adding loyalty to a Planeswalker is part of the activation cost, there's no responding to it while still only having 2 loyalty.
That poor fish got the Saint Trina treatment 😭💀
Could consider Invasion of Arcavios to re-buy Doppelgangs in the late game, too.
great deck! I will try to make a Bloomburrow Frog Block Deck :D
@33:28 That's why he is indeed a "legend"! LVD just chuckles when yet another Lily comes down. I'd be flipping tables.
I went 0-7 with this deck. So bad
I am always surprised how much torch the tower actually does. The exile effect certainly gets underrated ^^
very good deck gonna make one right now
Who Wants to Be a Millionaire came unexpected. But so good! And then the last possible answer made my day!
Damn, you really had me on the spot there for a moment Legend. Lock in C for me. ~opponent probably
Do nothing was definitely the right answer and could had provided a lot of value 😂
lmfao the who wants to be a millionaire bit caught me totally offguard
I do like a good Cornucopia deck
This title was almost clickbait but you got me with that twist
I can't believe the torch the tower moment happened two videos in a row lmao!
Mono red players being braindead is one of my favorite things
LVD Breaking the meta yet again, love to see it! Amazing video as always!
Not enough memery
Would you say this deck is competitive in the current meta?
no it's way too slow and gimmicky
That some well frozen fish. A lot of value out of that gift
rage against the machine
That poor fish token from Match 1! 🥺😭😂💀
I love your channel
the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire bit slays me
Awesome deck.
I have just started instant conceding against mono black discard. I get no joy from the match up and if their super cool strategy is me putting my deck directly in the bin I won't waste their time with something silly like playing the game
You are too generous. Sometimes I just rage altf4
Red players really be playing jeapordy
JESUS, that match 4.... lily, man...
Mono red players: (≖_≖ )?
Rage against the machine😂
Hell yeah, ramp!!! 😎🔥
You can add season of gathering should be good against the talent
Definitely a good sideboard option!
That poor fish...
