Chat: Will The Chest Burster be in Duskmourn? Seth: Aliens definitely exist

Deck tech 23:04

man, jax really REALLY wanted to Seth to answer the door lol

I am very much not hyped for duskmourne, though I was when I knew the theme and hadn’t seen the cards. it seems like we’re being treated to a second set in a row with many issues regarding tracking and confusing rules, plus gameplay I find uninteresting

Like and Subscribed cause Jax told us to!

35:25 deck explanation

I groaned when people in chat got Seth to add dopplegang to the deck; the only decks that play dopplegang are either 100% focused on it or just really really bad greedy piles

Seems like 30% of Standard is discard now.

Now I'm just curious if you've ever dipped a cookie in milk? If so, you may be able to better appreciate the milk and cereal perspective. Milk is an ingredient that has to be added right before eating, like ice cream on pie a-la-mode. It tastes great, but must be eaten immediately.

It's very easy to hate out discard decks, just play card draw

I really don't know why you are so happy about power creep, Seth Like bloomburrow was the first set in a while that didn't warp the format around it's bs aside from karlov, but that set sucked goat toes But this game is no longer power creeping... it's power sprinting! And every mtg goldfish video, I get anxious knowing that if it's any good, I'll have to deal with that BS deck every 4 games at least It's cool to use a deck Seth made, but I feel like nobody actually builds their own decks, just googles a good decklist and makes that

Put the Lizard into the simic desert doppelganger deck. I was inspired by your video and have good results with it. You get 4 more ping lands and lumra now

Gameplay starts at 25:14

I believe Saw in Half is coming as well, so you can reanimate Hoarding Broodlord, hit it with Saw in Half, then get Sacrifice and Peer in the Abyss

The entire first match is an open PSA on why modern is so past broken that its not even enjoyable, let alone playable. Good job WOTC. You managed to destroy the best format in magic in just 5 years.

Parlor. Par - lur. Par like in golf, then "lor" rhymes with "fur." I know you catch grief for the way you say things and the way you sound 😂 but I'm going nuts on elegant parlor.

In regards to your stream conversation. I know a guy who streams both on CZcams and Twitch at the same time. He does use apps that combine both chats. It'll use a bot that copies CZcams into Twitch and a bot that copies Twitch into CZcams. Then, he just reads one chat. Now, idk if he's a twitch partner/affiliate or whatever. I just know he does it.

As someone who really enjoys your content and you style and is very new to Magic, I love the history videos!

I love you Seth, but I do wish you'd chat less junk when you're starting to be drastically behind your opponent in time.

please stream on youtube

Hey Seth, about the streaming thing you can actually have them set up at the same time. I know that stream labs is something where you can input your settings for all your platforms and it allows you to stream on all your platforms at once. As far as overlays I'm unsure if you can have the overlays combined but I'm pretty sure you can have them both separately displayed, like if you have a 2 monitor set up you can have both chats going on your second monitor, not quite the same as things are now but I think it would be super cool to have you can crim steam on both at once

Why non basic land tutors?

Prime numbers are important in number theory because every positive whole number is uniquely defined by its prime factors (this is so important that it’s called the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic). In computer science they’re important because it is “easy” to multiply two big prime numbers together, but it’s “hard” to take that product and work out what the prime factors are, and this forms the basis of one of the main kinds of encryption used on the internet.

Also, the frame thing the blogatog was talking about was probably in reference to the bordering. Theres already material stating that the borders will be somewhat like unsets also with the planeswalker symbol being removed its a new way of determining what is tournament legal and what isnt in sets to come. (This is 100% probably maybe possible enter the sweepstakes for a chance to win false) but i did hear something like this floating around. 22:53

The Tamiyo Planeswalker Text is for Nashi, who is her adopted Child and is supposed to be on Duskmourne. We aren't getting a Tamiyo card in a standard set..unless Liliana goes to Kamigawa and raises her from the Dead.

The Original Nadu would have been miserable for the Modern format, not just commander. Imagine games with Delighted Halfling into Nadu on turn 2, then the rest of the game is playing against Temur Flash/Wilderness Recc except with Force of Negation backup.

Saga's sacrifice when their lore counters are >= their chapters. Urza's Saga typically dies when it loses it's chapter abilities without losing it's "Saga" type. This scneario was the reverse, you wouldn't have to sac because it would become a Saga with 0 counters. You can only get a lore counter on it by changing the land into a saga before your first main phase.

I wonder if anyone's ever kept track of how many stream games Seth has lost because he ran out of time thanks to focusing on chat

The shifting woodland deck feels like it needs some big creatures in the sideboard, like the big 8 mana toxic trample dino to just have the best creatureland in existance and smack down. 😢 .... I think that might be the better plan than omniscience 😅

The fable of the mirror breaker copying with shifting woodlands would work to get one goblin, but then it would die at end of turn because it has a lore counter on it but is no longer a saga.

Wotc needs to just grow a pair and restrict the one ring. Card should have said "you can only play one per deck" on it anyways.

can they have og one ring and move to arena one ring for paper?

Yes, there is value to prime numbers, but it gets complicated. They are used in cryptography all the time.

Prime numbers power HTTPS encryption, preventing third parties (like hackers and governments) from reading the messages sent to and from you and the websites you browser.

One guy REALLY wants Seth to read his completely out of nowhere theory on what the prime number card will be. He posts it like five times so far in the video...

How can anyone look at the one rings dominance and say " We aren't sure of the effect it will have ok the format". It's nit a healthy card and wizards knows it there is just something shady going on

I am taker for the mtgo play point if they are not taken, I need to Cuuuuuuuuuube

2:33:05 um, do what to a shifting woodlands?

Has WotC ever explained why they reserve restriction for only the oldest formats? Why not just restrict cards in Modern? Also, Micheal Majors didn’t go out and take the heat for Nadu. He went out and dumped the heat for Nadu onto Commander. Once again, Commander players have to listen to the Magic community blame Commander for every bad card ever made. Like bad cards weren’t made long before Commander focus design even existed.

They don’t want to ban the one ring because its harder being the people making the decisions, than being a content creator suggesting it. The sale of the 1of1 The One Ring was the biggest news Magic has had on a public scale in maybe forever. This was something that was covered by many, many news outlets outside our normal nerd bubble. So to turn around and ban said card, might not make the greatest impression. Not only that, you, again, are looking at this from a COMPLETELY selfish stand point in ignoring the fact that many people spent hard earned money on this cards. So sure, go ahead and say what you ‘would have done’ if you were them. But please, at least acknowledge that there is more to these decisions than just trying to make Modern into your rose colored glasses version of the perfect Modern that never really existed. Sorry to come off harsh, but I expect better from someone who has been in the game as long as you. There will ALWAYS be broken cards in Modern. There always have been, and they eventually get banned. But if giving people time with something they spent good money on, or were excited to pull, causes us to have to wait a few more months for it to get banned (only for the next broken thing to take its place), I’m fine with that. And when its all said and done, long after Nadu, Grief, The One Ring, etc. are banned, we’re still going to be right back here having this discussion about the next card. Same as we have since Modern has existed. Including your golden era that you remember so well. Edit: Also, step one of not seeing cards you don’t like being played everywhere….stop playing them yourself. Especially since your not a pro player on a competitive grind. Jus’ sayin’ as I watch you rock a playset of The One Ring…

Seth, you need to make more magic history content like the eggs video. Rhystic studies is popular for a reason, and its because the niche is awesome

Oko answers the Elk Ring and Elkish Bowmasters. Unban Oko now!

Just add basic to the "untap up to 4 lands" so that it's "untap up to 4 basic lands." It would be a lot less broken if you can't untap Tolarian Academy or Nykthos.

At around 41mins Seth says “I don’t like lesbian arr’s per year”.

Cache is pronounced cash

In regards to Nadia being too powerful for commander in its original form and then they changed it knowing it was going into modern legacy and commander and they only changed it because they were afraid of it being TOO good for commander they shot themselves in the foot in the process. This is why it is a BAD IDEA to design cards and particularly when designing cards trying to make that one card fit for every format because they think the bottom dollar is more important than their player base you get situations like this where some completely busted ended up in a 60 card format where people play competitively because you were trying to make it NOT TOO BUSTED for the non competitive casual player base. Wizards needs to STOP making every card with commander in mind. It’s killing the game on so many levels that they are hurting themselves more so than helping.

It’s crazy WotC chose to change a card designed for modern from *Modern* Horizons because they were scared it would be too strong for edh.

About the whole prime number discussion, we know that Zimone is gonna be in this set and she's from the Quandrix school in Strixhaven, which is all about math... No clue what the card will do, but I'm pretty sure it's gonna be related to her 😁

2:21:41 Combo assembled

Azlask, the Swelling Scourge edh is my wet wish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (multiplayer budget PLZ)
