Happy new year. Thank you for the really good content. You are my favorite content creator by far. Always fairplay, even facing the most nerve wrecking shuffler misbehaviours, you keep your calm and manage to take it on the positive side with a witful joke. A lot of your decks and plays are just brilliant. Thank you very much for this astonishing work of yours. See you on 2024 for more excellent content.
Some of these matches remind me of how relatively rare the first strike/deathtouch combo is on a single creature; so many players get tripped up because they're not sure how the two abilities work together.
@@fouroakfarm Damage overflow in this game is whatever is in excess of lethal. Since any amount of damage a deathtouch creature deals to another is lethal, everything past the first point of damage carries over to the other creatures blocking. It works this way with trample, too. If you attacked with a 5/5 that had trample and deathtouch and your opponent blocked with a 6/6, the 6/6 would die and your opponent would take 4 damage.
Don't. The fact that these supposed *mythic* players have no idea how first strike deathtouch works just proves that Arena is a fucking joke. (well, I think the first guy might have known, judging by how he blocked, but just didn't do the math properly. Math is for blockers, as they say)
Abzan wooooo! I love any color combination that has Golgari in it! Also I appreciate you so much trying to find ways to put Roaming Throne in every deck that it could work in LMAO you're the best, Luca!!!!!
A little while back, I played a list somewhat similar to this but with a couple copies of Breach the Multiverse thrown in for good measure. Little known fact about that card - it actually turns ALL creatures you control into phyrexians. In most decks that part essentially functions as just flavor text, but sometimes you can steal an opponent's key creature, start doubling its triggers, give it first strike and deathtouch, etc. You can also run a token-generating card (wedding announcement, planeswalkers, etc.) and play Breach to suddenly transform all your tokens into phyrexians, making them much scarier for our unsuspecting opponent. This is almost certainly worse than the build showcased in this video, but it's good silly fun and always gets a good laugh out of me when it goes off.
While it doesn't do much with Throne, Phyrexian Censor seems awfully tempting here using maybe 2 copies. I've tried a few Phyrexian decks before because I also want to try every possible Throne deck. All my attempts with Phyrexians were much better with a couple Censors shoved in there to slow down opponents. Speaking of putting Throne in all the decks, I'm actually pulling a 75% win rate with 5 color Human Soldiers w/Throne in Standard. Jirina is the GOAT BTW.
Legend I just played you and holy crap that monastery monk deck is filthy! And I was using your Boros go wide deck! I can’t believe I actually got to Play a game against you! That just made my day
I pulled a roaming throne in drsft along with the bat god and 4 copies of the 1B bat with Lifelink and makes them exile a card until it leaves. Roaming throne was so good late game.
After many games, I never managed to play 5drop Glissa, so i dropped the 2 copies to put 2 more sentries which are actually good vs monored and other aggro decks, which are very common ion bo1
I have a similar deck from a couple of sets ago except with Jinnie Fay rather than throne, finally making good my threat to construct a Jinnie deck that can win a few games here and there 😆
Commenting to suggest putting roaming throne in a narset, enlilghtened exile prowess deck. creature type could eitiher be human for easy mode, or monk for something spicier, both are fun.
At 37:50 you couldhave played Annex Sentry and sacrifice it to the Butcher for a +1/+1 counter, I think. You ended up winning anyways, so not a big deal.
@@jcarminatti09 no problem! I just saw that the creature wasn't highlighted in blue, if you would be able to take an action (activated ability) mtga highlights it and you get priority
17:40 Interesting. Does the opponent not get priority after you pay the ward cost? So kinda like giving you the worse of scenario by paying ward while targeting illegal hexproof target.
like your videos! gonna make some legends or runeterra content soon! (riont hearhstone mix) any general starting advice? i watch you since 2018 and you always will be a part of my daily youtube content my friend best mtg content... maybe tied with cgb... and commander at home... but thats it :) love you bye
As a player coming from Hearthstone I hate playing against 0 interaction decks like those green poison ones. So boring, you either win easily or lose without making much decisions. It all depends on if your opponent draws perfectly or not and you can't heal or block or do anything most of the time, which you can do against mono red. These decks are the reason I'd rather watch mtg than play myself most of the time
LVD: "In my continued pursuit to put Roaming Throne is every creature deck [...]"
Me: "Yes ... Excellent ..."
XD
You get you someone who loves you like LVD loves roaming throne.
I know, words are hard. You tried at least.
@Fullmetal85 or.....and bear with me now, it could be a movie quote.
Awesome to be obsessed with a card (Throne) and figuring out cool combos with it! Props for creativity!
Like mtg arena original decks and his irrational love of chimil inner sun
@@richgumpert5190 that dude tho.. lol
Or MBM and his Birth of Malettuce.

and for good reason... it's almost impossible to beat in combat
24:52 I enjoyed that line so much !
Came to the comments just to say this! 😂 so good!
He was spitting facts! Hahaha
Feel bad for the players learning about first strike + death touch for the first time lol
Was news to me! Why does it only do 1 damage to each of the 3 creatures and not the first creatures soaking up more?

just goes to show that you can make it to mythic without knowing interactions like that
Wow. Thanks for the explainer, appreciate it@@joaquintristan4373

28:16 The shame scoop. LoL! I did my fair share of those...
Will watch every video with Roaming Throne in it. So fun every time.
The bat-joke killed me😂
Any reason to not block Thalia with Glissa at 15:48 ?
Yeah I was wondering that as well.
Yeah, should've blocked!
@@LegenVD you're still the best :')
@@LegenVD just say you did it for content
Hearing "Hello, and welcome to another standard gameplay video" just enlightens my day, thanks legend
The Deep-Cavern-Bat-Joke made me laugh harder than it should have 🤣
i really was looking for abzan phyrexians! thank you
24:53 oh, you.
Abzan wooooo! I love any color combination that has Golgari in it!
Also I appreciate you so much trying to find ways to put Roaming Throne in every deck that it could work in LMAO you're the best, Luca!!!!!
I love playing with both Glissas. Most people struggle so hard trying to figure out how to block against first strike + deathtouch.

I agree, I've been trying with some phyrexian shinanigans recently and Censor is just such a nice card to have.
Roaming throne looks like lego spider.
That Echolocation line killed me
chairman luca has returned!

Monastery mentor***
I too love Throne, I’m really enjoying it in my Selesnya Warriors deck 😂
Awesome work. Fun set of games and great presentation. Thank you!
Love when you’re able to bring my ideas to life! Love yah!

Love creature decks!!
After many games, I never managed to play 5drop Glissa, so i dropped the 2 copies to put 2 more sentries which are actually good vs monored and other aggro decks, which are very common ion bo1
I’ve been thinking of making this deck with Elesh instead of sheoldred. Idk about throne but it looks cool! Thanks for the content
Hey, why not both?
This video is an important lesson for how to not block Glissa.
I have a similar deck from a couple of sets ago except with Jinnie Fay rather than throne, finally making good my threat to construct a Jinnie deck that can win a few games here and there 😆
The chair is compleated. Finally.
I have this Glissa as a phyrexian tribal brawl commander and it’s one of my favorite decks. Love to see it in standard
Deep cavern bat comment was awesome.
I love that glissa she's so cool. Wish she was more competitive
Thanks for the video! Happy Holidays LVD!
I just made a similar incubate deck (commander) so this is very cool to see
You'd think the 3 mana Glissa has been around in Standard long enough for Mythic players to know how she works... But no.
So Legend, what would you say is the best tribe to take advantage of Roaming Throne so far?
In Standard? Probably humans.
Love this deck!
15:44 no block with Glissa?
Sneedcore is so legit
Fun deck i going to give a chance.
Throne is a little Mother of the machines.
Commenting to suggest putting roaming throne in a narset, enlilghtened exile prowess deck. creature type could eitiher be human for easy mode, or monk for something spicier, both are fun.
That guy on 33:18 was a paid actor
WE STAN GLISSA ❤❤❤
Anyone would care to explain me how Glissa should be blocked?
funny how so many opponentes forget first-strike+deathtouch being busted
Perfect!
I just feel like Phyrexian Censor would be so good. Idk though
Yes ! ! !
He really is putting it everywhere next is ninjas
*nods in Vraska*
At 37:50 you couldhave played Annex Sentry and sacrifice it to the Butcher for a +1/+1 counter, I think. You ended up winning anyways, so not a big deal.
How would you be able to sac it to the butcher? Did you mix it up with the bloated processor?
@@floriankaeder oh, indeed I mistook those two. Thanks for the correction.
@@jcarminatti09 no problem! I just saw that the creature wasn't highlighted in blue, if you would be able to take an action (activated ability) mtga highlights it and you get priority
Did you rec any festival in a box Leg.?
I love watching people not knowing how first strike and deathtouch work together
17:40 Interesting. Does the opponent not get priority after you pay the ward cost? So kinda like giving you the worse of scenario by paying ward while targeting illegal hexproof target.
Also, 24:50 shouldn't be surprising getting dry humor out of you xD

best mtg content... maybe tied with cgb... and commander at home... but thats it :)
love you bye
Just do it!
29:48 s.. X equals one? 😂
Hi LVD! Any consideration for bloated contaminator in this deck?
Could be decent, although the 3-drops are hotly contested.
The C H A I R
it's surprising how many people in mythic goof on some basic game mechanics, like blocking a first-strike deathtouch creature.
At 11:40, shouldn't your processor ability not trigger since etching of kumano is on the battlefield?
Only when it's damaged.
oh man I never noticed that wording on kumano! I think I've played around it the other way so that is good to know.

Oof, Glissa on her throne needs to chill 😅

How can you play Phyrexian roaming throne in black and not include 5 mana sheoldred?
Had to cut Sheoldred to make room for 5 mana Glissa.
The etb on Sheoldred is ok, but we're unlikely to transform her.
Throne on paper looks boring but in practice always makes great content.
😊
Ah, the joy of people not knowing how to block first strike + death touch.
Otherwise known as "mythic players don't read.dec"
Where's Mom?
A phyrexian deck scared of poison. Ironic.
I played 50 games with this deckand lost 90%. With this I quit magic forever
I did mention the deck not being particularly competitive at the end of the video.
@@LegenVD nah I’m pretty sure it’s me. I never really know when it’s a good idea to mulligan. And it’s not just this deck but every deck I try.
Don't care if it's on theme ... Sheoldred is always a hard pass
