I remember back in the day when I first started playing Magic, I had a few copies of Dragon-Scarred Bear in my deck. As I was mostly self taught and had limited internet access, I assumed that "regenerate" meant I could simply pay the one and a green to return it to my battlefield anytime I had 8 or more total power on said battlefield. Won a lot of games against my sister with my apparently unkillable bear. I distinctly remember her complaining at one point that "Your bear is way too strong its so unfair" and my response was something to the effect of "This Bear fought a dragon and lived, of course you cant kill it easily." Good times.
Ahh bears, I think they're pretty cool. Even if I've never seen one. We don't have bears in Australia, so my only experience is seeing a few sun bears at the zoo. But just as I one day hope to see a black bear in person, I hope to see "Top 10 VIntage Cards (Minus Power 9)"!
@@raym1477 Nope. Koalas are unrelated to all placental mammals and are marsupials. They're more related to other marsupials like kangaroos, possums, opossums, Tasmanian devils, etc than any placental mammal, bears included.
This top 10 reminded me of a movie scene about 2 people fighting a bear. Yeah, not sure which movie it was. But that made me think about gladiators fighting against bears. Then soldiers doing the same thing. That mental image piqued my curiosity and tried searching for Nizzahon's Top 10 soldiers video. Found it and wait for the updated version.
Werebear rates within the top five Flavor text of all time for Mtg cards. Fight me if you are a bear. Bite me if you are named Elspeth, Kaya, or Malenia blade of Miquella... /s
Please make most point lists for each format; Modern, Legacy and Vintage for example. Once you have those, perhaps even make one for all formats, as in, What 10 magic cards has earned the most points, anywhere, ever.
If this were the case, it would only have points from that single Pro Tour, I think, and as Nizza said he was a serious beater in Standard of its time, especially against Necropotence decks.
The best thing about being a Bear is that you can equip Lightning Greaves without risking them being destroyed, because if an opponent goes to target them you can simply reply that you have bear feet.
Kinda surprised there are 10 entire bears with points. Is there any type of cards that you wanted to do a video about but just didn't have enough cards with points?
Look for the Bear nECESSATIES ....the simply doo doo doooo du du ...forget about your mana curve tonighhhhht Just need to tapp two basic lands ...you dont have enoug prismatic strands ....this deck is gonna go aggro on you tonight .
Werebear: best bear, best flavor text
Oh my god, a Homelands card!
I loved that set, even if it was abysmal, so seeing a card on a "best list" made may day. 😀
HOMELANDS FTW!
I lowkey thought this was gonna be about 2 mana 2/2s
Ever make a vanilla only deck put in muraganda petroglyph. It is an enchantment that does +2 +2 to creatures with no abilities.
Aw, it's disappointing that the bear creatures are all older. I would've loved it if Wilson, Ayula, or Goreclaw made it on the list

There's a bear that's a top in Baldur's Gate 3.
Is this a gay joke? 👀
@@SpitefulAZIt could be, but it's a bit more....literal
@@therudecanadian8068 I have a gay room mate that plays this game, I will ask him :) 😘
And he’s *definitely* a 10.

He doesn't discriminate.
Women or men, it's all good.

Don't Koalas count as bears?

6 cards that makes bears, 3 cards that are ghost or illusion bears, and Werebear.
Good list.
Surprised Greasefang’s chariot didn’t make it.
Spectral Bears are commonly used together with Quirion Ranger (1997+), that could untap it and enable it to attack each turn
Very cool art on Bearscape.
Homelands represent!
and the number one Bear on our list is... Refrigerator Perry!
Path To The World Tree is interesting because it's mono-green and does direct damage (not fight damage) to another creature.
It does that because you have to pay red mana to activate the ability. Each color is represented in its effect.
Well, look at that, a Homelands card in a top ten. Nice to see that set getting some love from time to time.
love this list because I love bears

Brian Urlacher. Walter Payton. Devin Hester.
Oh wait, wrong Bears.
aaaaaah werebear ....good times

So the 10th kicks off the year of the dragon for the chinese zodiac, can we get an update on the top 10 dragons to celebrate?
You already know #1
A homelands card on place 4. Wasn't this also caused by the rules at that time that pro tour decks needed to include cards from the latest sets?
If this were the case, it would only have points from that single Pro Tour, I think, and as Nizza said he was a serious beater in Standard of its time, especially against Necropotence decks.
I was playing magic back then. Definitely not a staple during the ice age block.
I have a edh bear tribal deck. Its so much fun to play. I highly recommend anyone that plays casual to play one.
Ayala?
Yes! although there is another new bear commnader from Karlov Manor that I want to try out. Duskana, the Rage Mother @@NizzahonMagic
Wilson is very popular in commander.
Couldn't remember the name of number 4 afore hand but did call that too lol
I'd really like threshold and or a mechanic that thresholds exile to make a return and or entry.
Honestly, this list should have come out on February 2nd
Striped bears are probably pretty up there? There are a few interesting ones around.
This is beary interesting 🧐 🐻
"Werebears? Where? Bears? Men that are bears?" -Maiq the Liar
The Bears 🐻
I was hoping ayula was in here
Phantasmal Bear?
Edit:
Huh, the meme bear, fair enough.
One of them definitely earned his right to bear arm's
Everything on this list beats Battlestar Galactica.
Vesuvan Doppelganger's ability is not a joke, Jack!
I saw bears so i clicked 😂😂😂
HOW DID I FORGET THE THRESHOLD BEAR.
Which bear is best?
Bears, beet, battlestar galactica
Bruse Tarl didn't make the list, how sad :(
DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BEAAAAAAAAARSSSSSSSSSSS!!
No Goreclaw? Did he have any points?
Bears need more help clearly!
Nizzahon is the best bear in magic
Before watching gonna say Spectral Bear.
I'm a simple guy. I see bears, i click. 🐻
Warebear has the best flavor text
The best bear in Magic is You😍
Is that blade sharp? No, it Nizzahon
Da Bears......
Pretty interesting that such a classic creature type is still so weak overall in 2024.
🐻
The best bear is Joven.
I Only like bears in my bedroom
Funny how the top bears aren't even "real" bears - they're spirits, illusions, shapeshifters... No Wilson or Ayula to stand for good old grizzlies :(
Therebear
top 10 wolves?
