Makes sense since random players will be playing Boros Convoke and monored Wait until this set releases and Boros will get a fast land and we will see only that deck everywhere
@LegenVD Oh, cool, thanks for the reply! Cool deck btw, definitely will add some removal to this deck or maybe more counters? There are way too many insta kill combos in this set lol. I think the first 2 games showed some of them off.
Artifacts got alot of cool new cards and the deck seems fun to try out but the absurd number of mythic wildcards required will keep most player's off unless it develops into tier 1. Glad this micro set venture ends with OTJ.
This looks so fun. But I just checked, I barely have any cards for this deck and not nearly enough wildcards to craft it. It's just frustrating trying to play Arena for free. But I am just not willing to pay what they ask for digital cards. If they asked for maybe half of what they do, I would consider spending some bucks every month but not like this. So I just get to play one or maybe two decks and the jank I can come up with some other way.
Sweet deck, and also incredibly mythic-heavy. I hope to pack a few of these in these OTJ packs. I know that bonus sheet in particular big score, is all rares. But still, mythic? Really, wizards?
here is my mono blue version i made for these cards 4 secrets of the key 4 sleight of hand 4 three steps ahead 3 chart a course 4 deduce 3 akal pakal, first among equals 4 sage of days 4 synthesizers 3 worldwalker helm 3 oasis gardener 3 arcane proxy 18 island 3 blast zone
2:18 Since you are not also copying the Worldwalker Helm, the growth won't be exponential, but only quadratic. And even then it would really only become exponential when you also have a mana source you can copy with the Helms. edit: you could theoretically achieve that, but in practice the growth will still be quadratic most of the time.
Deck looks fun but it definitely needs some form of sweepers, seems to be very weak against go wide style flood decks. Those new token generators are going to be straight up busted in a number of formats
Likely due to cmc clashing with how many 3-drops the deck has. 2cc ramp on turn 2 is a lot more manageable/acceptable than just *not* playing one of your many combo pieces on turn 3 when your deck is relying on them to build the board and has no removal/interaction outside of a counter-spell (which also costs 3cc) and a chunky 5cc artifact.
So when this deck works, it’s absolutely gnarly. I don’t know if I’m just wrong or what, but it seems there have been a ton of powerful combo decks hit with this set. Makes me curious about the meta, in a good way.
Man this new standard is going to be ridiculously powerful. So many powerful cards and combos coming with OTJ. It's gonna be like The Ultimate Showdown of which deck will be the most degenerate 😂😂
Hey LVD, been a fan for a while. if its not, i apologize but if the Thumbnail is AI art please don't make that a regular thing. MTG has the largest pool of Fantasy art in the world, surely there can be a something better to use.
Why not use ai? It’s quicker cheaper and looks just as good. A smaller channel like this isn’t making millions so things like ai cover art makes the process of uploading videos easier I would imagine. I’m not against it if it allows him to upload videos for us easier.
@jackkozitza3003 I bet you conveniently have art that he can pay for right? Hustling other creatives to make $$$ because your commissions are slow is silly. Edit: nailed it. They have an insta and commissions have been open for months with few posted complete works in pretty basic fantasy/sci-fi style.
27:00 "I am Urza, Planeswalker."
-Urza, Planeswalker
Mtg deep lore
I mean, he's not wrong
It's Urzin' time
What are we, some kinda Outlaws of Thunder Junction?
"Constructs, or Karnstructs if you prefer the original Gnomenclature"
Nice stealth pun
It was structured cornily
As was your comment
😂
I don't know why, but for some reason, I prefer watching you play against other content creators than random opponents. Great video, as alwasy!
Makes sense. Creators want to entertain. Players on the ladder want to climb.
Yeah, especially that short creators' tournament that Wizards did a short while ago was fun, too bad they haven't done any more
Makes sense since random players will be playing Boros Convoke and monored
Wait until this set releases and Boros will get a fast land and we will see only that deck everywhere
It’s cuz everyone’s trying out the new cards so instead of the usual boring meta.
I like when he drafts from time to time
This is hands down my favorite deck so far. As much as I love the Annie Joins Up deck, this deck gives me all the feel goods.
I like how the moment you got paired against SaffronOlive, your first thought has to be “What weird combo is this?”
I love this new era of Azorius being the scary proactive player.
Is Azorius now Three Steps Ahead of the game?
Finally my time has come! I hate to play reactively.
That terror combo deck was SICK!!
Why they were two copies created?? i didn't catch that.
One of the best parts of LVD including losses for sure
@@martinksk88 it says „repeat this process once“
The idea of a big dragon riding the little fire horse is hilarious
That Greed's Gambit swap is a nightmare my god...
Taking good advantage of that fully unlocked account with this deck
Those 0/0 token arts are kinda funky... they look like partially assembled T-posing suits of armor
comments moving so fast nobody will see that im gay
📸
Caught in 4K
fast as f boii
2:57 You said "...the full set of Urza..." but there's only 3 in the deck.
Indeed, I misspoke. In previous iterations I had 4 copies, but needed to make room for more artifacts.
@LegenVD Oh, cool, thanks for the reply! Cool deck btw, definitely will add some removal to this deck or maybe more counters? There are way too many insta kill combos in this set lol. I think the first 2 games showed some of them off.
This list provides industrial levels of value.
Might be the first Azorius deck that i find interesting and fun, both as a concept and playing
Wooo!! Saturday uploads!!!
EDIT: Interesting that these modal + spells don't hold mana @10:38
You can't cast them without selecting at least one mode.
"Thanks again Lizards for having me"
Artifacts got alot of cool new cards and the deck seems fun to try out but the absurd number of mythic wildcards required will keep most player's off unless it develops into tier 1. Glad this micro set venture ends with OTJ.
Damn the opponent on Match 3 was i think too much overconfident vs creatures who grown up so easly
Seems like a fun set to run 36 counterspells to make sure you don't die to any of the insta-kill turn 4 combos.
It's so weird, i never get the New Capenna or the background of the current season. Only got the one with the desert, and I'm kind of sick of it now
12:10 why did he get 2 terror of the peaks tokens??
"Repeat this process once"
Oh thanks I missed that. But wow, that's kind of an insane card! @@LegenVD
Super satisfying deck to watch you play! Maybe adding some Braided Nets could help with stalling the board state/chump blockers
This looks so fun. But I just checked, I barely have any cards for this deck and not nearly enough wildcards to craft it. It's just frustrating trying to play Arena for free. But I am just not willing to pay what they ask for digital cards. If they asked for maybe half of what they do, I would consider spending some bucks every month but not like this. So I just get to play one or maybe two decks and the jank I can come up with some other way.
I only pay for mastery when a new set comes out. $20 isn’t bad and you get a lot of value out of it. Double the packs for your daily quests.
Nice deck but so mamy rares that don't fit anywhere else. I wish that for 10$ a month I had access at least to all standard...
I had the same thought. Especially since I just started playing 10 days ago lol
Man some of these decks look sick, really hoping some of them are strong enough to stick around and shake up standard.
adding nomenclature (or gnomenclature) to my vocabulary Lol great deck as always!
Artifact decks being busted since the '90s, and always a pleasure to see go off
The way I smashed that watch button ...
Wow, it had a family!
scott ur a legend
Saffron is such a bully lmao 😭😂
Sweet deck, and also incredibly mythic-heavy. I hope to pack a few of these in these OTJ packs. I know that bonus sheet in particular big score, is all rares. But still, mythic? Really, wizards?
The mythic Artifactory
here is my mono blue version i made for these cards
4 secrets of the key
4 sleight of hand
4 three steps ahead
3 chart a course
4 deduce
3 akal pakal, first among equals
4 sage of days
4 synthesizers
3 worldwalker helm
3 oasis gardener
3 arcane proxy
18 island
3 blast zone
2:18 Since you are not also copying the Worldwalker Helm, the growth won't be exponential, but only quadratic. And even then it would really only become exponential when you also have a mana source you can copy with the Helms.

Kinda cool watching you play against Seth… probably better known as saffron olive. And it’s time for another edition of Against the odds.
Your content never disappoints! Loved the video. Really cool deck! Thank you, have a nice day also.
Thanks, you too!
What was thinking the opp on here 18:12 ? Pretty dumb decision, jump block and attack on the next turn
Deck looks fun but it definitely needs some form of sweepers, seems to be very weak against go wide style flood decks. Those new token generators are going to be straight up busted in a number of formats
I wish I had a clever robot pun to help with the algorithm but I'm short circuiting.
These sets-within-sets are getting a bit out of hand
Ashizzle not chumping those construct token was big troll
This is the most expensive deck I've ever seen for wildcards haha
heyy, can you test out mono red with the scorpion dragon + coyote?
I'm surprised at the inclusion of Irencrag but not Celestus.
Likely due to cmc clashing with how many 3-drops the deck has. 2cc ramp on turn 2 is a lot more manageable/acceptable than just *not* playing one of your many combo pieces on turn 3 when your deck is relying on them to build the board and has no removal/interaction outside of a counter-spell (which also costs 3cc) and a chunky 5cc artifact.
23:39 Opponent didn't attack with falcon, since they would have to take back Greed's gambit as the only permanent left they own but don't control
Good point!
So when this deck works, it’s absolutely gnarly.
I don’t know if I’m just wrong or what, but it seems there have been a ton of powerful combo decks hit with this set.
Makes me curious about the meta, in a good way.
great home for Three Steps Ahead
Turn 4 combo expasion coming in...
I want to try it with the other Blue Artifact that makes copy on Sacrifice
god damnit wizards it's called multikicker it's okay to say it
I love artifacts, it will definitely be the my first new deck
Can't wait until they print a card called Artifactory
HE DID IT. HE DID THE MEME!! 🔥😂
I wish a artifact deck like this was standard playable
It is. I play with it in standard everyday.
Amazing synergy! Well done!
Man this new standard is going to be ridiculously powerful. So many powerful cards and combos coming with OTJ. It's gonna be like The Ultimate Showdown of which deck will be the most degenerate 😂😂
BEST Deck ever, thank you!
Interesting set.
I open both the helm and synthesizer in prerelease packs
Hey LVD, been a fan for a while. if its not, i apologize but if the Thumbnail is AI art please don't make that a regular thing. MTG has the largest pool of Fantasy art in the world, surely there can be a something better to use.
Have you looked at most recent MTG art? Most of it is terrible. Anyway, don't be a whiny baby, the future is here, accept it.
a very poorly thought out response, and especially rude to the many amazing magic artists who work on this game. Do better.
Why not use ai? It’s quicker cheaper and looks just as good. A smaller channel like this isn’t making millions so things like ai cover art makes the process of uploading videos easier I would imagine. I’m not against it if it allows him to upload videos for us easier.
Such a big fan you have no comments on any video before this one...
@jackkozitza3003 I bet you conveniently have art that he can pay for right?
