isnt this card genius to find out what and how an opponent is playing? like a test round that cost you half your life,it goes the other way too but a more experienced player would profit,or not? not counting the time aspect

Good Shahrazad play, as the subgame has a much better chance at working out in his favor given the really, really fast Dark Ritual -> Underworld Dreams -> Howling Mine opening of his opponent, all three of which are no longer available for the subgame.

Very useful, I was just trying to learn how to better use my madness premodern deck and this video was what I needed!

Creatures!! Yes! I miss crazy board states with cards everywhere! Big bad trample creatures ect…

This is why the deck is horrible to play against game 3 he had no business winning but they do it way too often with 1 or 2 hp its so bad for the format that the deck is dominating so much, ban tome and restrict abyss to 1 19:33

Regarding library of Alexandria, it’s clearly the most busted card in all of old school. I really don’t understand formats with one strip because it leaves too many chances for library to be left unchecked and warp games. Their justification is that strip warps games on its own, but leaving library unchecked is way more warping of a game state than using multiple strip mine. It also leaves Mithras factory unchecked for a lot of games and that card on its own can totally dominate games turn after turn, especially when it pumps. If you’re Restricting stip mine, ban library and restrict factory as well. Then it’s an actual balance

Why sol ring?

Great games and content. I always wonder the best way to offer advice on making the games easier to watch when webcasting. An off center camera with a lot of the playmat going unused and the most frequently used part being obscured by a deck box. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Not to mention the vertical split. Between lands and creatures is different take 🧐

Taking kitchen table to another level with the towel AND the left right split of lands and permanents

Yes. One if my first decks was as many plauge rats as i could get and few tomes to get more rats

You can activate regenerate any time you have priority. It creates a regenerate shield that activates next time creature is destroyed. You can wait to active until it is targeted by something like bolt but if you wait until it’s taken lethal damage or has been destroyed and is headed to graveyard it is too late.

Im super confused about game 1 unless there is something off screen, opp never had access to 2 black mana to cast Sengirs and tapped 0 black for the 2nd sengir as he used the badlands to cast a bolt.

Old school mono red goblins was my first deck back in 1995.

It should be a four of in all play groups

I'm part way through g1, and am shouting to Orb the lone white source!

All formats in old school should allow proxies. It’s not a secret club, for rich elite, and shouldn’t be presented as such. Relic barrier is great as a four of in prison.

You can't sacrifice Nicol Bolas to Lord of the Pit and keep the other Nicol Bolas in play, because the Legend Rule is a state-based action which is checked as a player is about to get priority. Lord of the Pit has a triggered ability, and the sacrifice has to be made during the resolution of that ability. By the time the active player has priority to handle Lord of the Pit's trigger, the second Bolas is already in the graveyard. Back in the day this might have worked (when you could sacrifice lands to Zuran Orb during Balance's resolution, for example), but not with modern rules. Sorry!

Maze on a Serra? 🤔

Why not city in a bottle for a transmute target in the main deck? It shuts off a lot of decks.

Jihad is a great card. Love me some weenie 😊😅

I really gotta build a blood moon deck.

In game 3 - when the spector attacks why does he not use his swords. he has an untapped fellwar stone and dead guy ale has a scrupland in play?

Love the deck, Weisman’s list with a single shivan dragon as the only creature, is my favorite version. 💀

X-points is a really unique and interesting way to force more diverse decks. Love the fun factor to these games.

Awesome content

This is a fairly budget build. If you were to make some upgrades, what’s on your wish list?

Wrath is so unexpected. I bet your opponent wished he had Orbed your single W source.

Turn 1 tax instead turn 1 creature , not good

Fun video with great coverage. X point is a fantastic format.

Thx for sharing!!

Fun one, thanks for sharing!

Fun games!

I also attended the tournament and was crushed with my Ernham geddon deck 😅😂

Nice game. Please post more videos! Thanks

Yeah, I think he mistakes “favorite flavor” for “best art”.

Maze of Ith doesn’t work on Serra Angel.

The strip mine and Safe Haven were dropped on the same turn.

It’s interesting since in 94, no one who had all of the cards played silly decks like this. Players played silly decks but those players usually sold off their power and Chaos Orbs.

to be honest, it kinda hurts those old, expensive cards being misplayed that badly :(

Awesome video!

Why did he scoop hand 3? He had the win. Very strange match.

12:45 hahahaha. First time in my life I see the Chaos Orb played. This is too funny. And the guy seems to be a pro at using it. Didn't know it was legal to play. Why is he playing a black board? In case he has to rip it in pieces a white board would be more feasible, no?

Keep up the good work, I love your commentary!

Yes! I love MirrorBall 🤘🏻

Do these games use modern MTG game rules or older rules, e.g. using the batch instead of the stack? Does damage go on the stack in these games?

16:33 "Thats the correct move" Is it? Might have been not the time yet

great commentary, and i like the addition of the runner highlighting key effects. would love it if you could flip the video feeds in post, keep up the great work

11:35 sacrifices one land to much s/

I’m just getting into magic at age 40. Very interesting. My nicest card is unlimited vesuvan doppelgänger so far.
