    @TheDracoMaritimus Před 7 dny

    Great video, the sideboard guide is excellent. As someone just getting into pioneer it's really helpful to understand why certain cards are in the sideboard and when to side in which card. I've been running a similar list on Arena (in Explorer) I was just wanting to know your thoughts on Tranquil Frillback and Arasta as additions/alternates in the sideboard. Arasta is for Phoenix and/or other spell slinger decks, and Frillback is a bit of a utility; graveyard removal, ench/art removal, life gain.

    • @bobbyfortanely
      @bobbyfortanely Před 7 dny

      Arasta is a fine option. It can be good against Phoenix, but trading for a single Lightning Axe, even if leaving behind a 1/2 spider, puts you down tempo a bit. When playing it, Arasta was more effective as an anti Mono Red card more than an anti-Phoenix card. I think it’s entirely possible that Arasta is correct to include. For Tranquil Frillback, flexibility is nice, but there’s no matchup where multiple modes are at a premium. The list already runs the most efficient rate of each of those effects: Hearse for graveyard hate, Obstinate Baloth for life gain, and Pick Your Poison for disenchant. Furthermore, these all come in for non-overlapping matchups (with the exception of matchups where Pick Your Poison’s primary role is as a Plummet). I am highly skeptical that Tranquil Frillback is correct to include (in the current metagame). Finally, for both of these, a significant demerit is that they cost >=3 mana but don’t have >=4 power, as reductive as that sounds. Every creature slot that doesn’t have 4 power reduces the snowball potential of drawing cards with Kiora/Trailblazer, which in one of the primary reasons to play the deck.

    • @TheDracoMaritimus
      @TheDracoMaritimus Před 6 dny

      @@bobbyfortanely Thanks so much for your reply. The points you've made are kind of where I was leaning on these cards. I've run Arasta a few times against phoenix and both times its been picked off, leaving just the 1/2. Frillback I was one I wasn't sure about. It seems like it could be good to be able to pick off specific artifact/enchantment, instead of your opponent sacrificing one, but needing the 4 mana to do so, and not drawing a card or adding that much devotion, feels like a bit of a drag

      I could see doing that. Elves are pretty weak. You could go down 5 more elves to just 1 elf, and additionally bring in 3 Baloth and 2 Stone Brain. I used to bring in Stone Brain during the Karn days.

  • @peech4845
    @peech4845 Před 9 dny

    Hey Bobby! I was playing this deck on Area, there is no access to Oath of Nissa. I ran a Goldvein Hydra instead and it won me at least 2 games. Is this something I should be considering? I was thinking running one in the main and 1 in board (I dont own an Emerakul). I would love to know what you think.

    • @bobbyfortanely
      @bobbyfortanely Před 9 dny

      The 1 Oath of Nissa is very replaceable. Right now I’m testing a basic Forest in its spot, and also main deck Skysovereign or main deck Cityscape Leveler. The Emrakul in the sideboard is also not super important and also $80 in paper. Running a 1/1 split of Goldvein Hydra sounds fine to me. That card hits hard, and your opponent will loathe pointing a removal spell at it.

You have access to plenty of mana, you can flip the Ulvenwald, give the team haste and swing for 34 damage, with OP tapped out. Instead you end up giving the OP a land from the Boseiju on the Legion Extruder line which open up their out of Shrapnel Blast killing the Ulvenwald during activation; though you have the mana to double activate anyways.

      Probably easier than the Karn version, mostly because Karn was a 16-way modal spell, although the current build has tougher sideboarding choices. Comboing with the old version was unintuitive, but was a teachable skill.

      That’s a fair point: being a mana cheaper might be worth 4+ life. I’ll consult with my green-playing peers. I have noticed that 4-drops are slightly better in a Leyline world, since Leyline + Nykthos can cast a 4-drop on turn 3 even if all your elves get answered on turns 1 and 2.

    Probably the deck could be improved. Leyline feels like a win more (sometimes win on the spot card). Cityscape leveler should be in the deck from game1, with 19 mana we can cast leveler->destroy Cav->put on top oddity and draw it with kiora/trailblazer -> cast oddity and flip it (unlucky players mill oddity with cav most of the times)

    at 1:33:51 what if we play archfiend first, shoot the wildgrowth walker with sorin. they lose 6 total going to 8. It makes any block or no block lethal while having push backup for a chord.

    • @bobbyfortanely
      @bobbyfortanely Před měsícem

      Good catch! I agree, I think that this is definitely the right play.

  • @luisluks5774
    @luisluks5774 Před měsícem

    Kinda wild not to double loot with Fable on the turn the Amalia opponent telegraphs Chord of Calling, I think that is a compulsory double discard. Probably the tapped land.

    • @luisluks5774
      @luisluks5774 Před měsícem

      Also in that matchup I think you kill Amalia with the push so he does not Explore and then fling a creature to the Wildgrowth Walker

    • @bobbyfortanely
      @bobbyfortanely Před měsícem

      I agree with both of your plays. I think that they’re both clearly correct. Good catches, much appreciated!

    When I used to play Rakdos Mid, I used to sideboard out Bloodtithe Harvester to make their Fiery Impulses weaker and I used to keep Duress and Reckoner Bankbuster. Is this sideboard strategy just wrong against Phoenix nowadays with Rakdos Vampires? I kinda think Leyline is a really terrible card. I'm really struggling against that MU. Cheers

    • @bobbyfortanely
      @bobbyfortanely Před měsícem

      I have not tested that yet, but I will at your recommendation. I’ve been somewhat happy with Hearses in that slot. There likely needs to be some form of graveyard interaction, otherwise my experiences has been eventually getting overwhelmed by Treasure Cruises, regardless of what their postboard threat configuration is.

    • @luisluks5774
      @luisluks5774 Před měsícem

      @@bobbyfortanely Hearse used to be worse before bc there was many more Abrades/ Artifact Hate going around. I think Phoenix players used to hate the Mind rot more, but another 3 CC card in the deck is a deckbuilding constraint.

    great vid as always im only halfway through, but round 3 game 2 your first thoughtseize was for ledger shredder when you have fatal push in hand to answer it , i think i would have gone with picklock pranster since they already have 2 ways to bin the first phoenix, just curious to get your thoughts! amazing plays, im learning a ton!

    • @bobbyfortanely
      @bobbyfortanely Před měsícem

      Hmmmm that’s a really good point about the two discard outlets. I suspect that my reasoning was preserving an answer for a drawn Shredder or Young Pyromancer, but maybe that doesn’t make much sense given their hand composition. Good call.

    • @bobbyfortanely
      @bobbyfortanely Před měsícem

      I have not played Boris Convoke recently, although its position has gotten much better now that Amalia and UW Control are somewhere in popularity slots 6-10 rather than 1-5. Frank Karsten had an article about it on CFB maybe 2 weeks before OTJ released, and that’s the most recent high-quality content I’ve seen about the archetype.

  • @davidpereira8357
    @davidpereira8357 Před měsícem

    I guess those archfiend are very good in the mirror and phoenix. But if the meta is varied or more aggro, wouldn't it make sense to play other four drops? What are your thought on bankbusters in the main instead of the dusk legions?

    • @bobbyfortanely
      @bobbyfortanely Před měsícem

      The four drop is certainly metagame-dependent. I can see most combinations of four drops making sense depending on what you expect. Bankbusters main makes sense, especially since Waste Not is so popular. Dusk Legion Zealot is such a mopey card, but the reasoning for it is making Sorin better in fair games and maximizing the odds of Sorin+Vein Ripper. I have also been thinking about that Rakdos Bronco deck that eschews the Vampire package for other card advantage.

    Hey bob, i use kalitas, what do you think?

    • @bobbyfortanely
      @bobbyfortanely Před 2 měsíci

      I like Kalitas as well, both against ground-based aggro decks and small-creature value decks. I had a postboard recent game against an Insidious Roots deck where I had turn 3 Sorin with an option to put in either Vein Ripper or Kalitas and I went with Kalitas. My opponent then played Tyvar and returned a hasty Priest of the Forgotten Gods, which would’ve been able to easily answer a Vein Ripper, but couldn’t answer Kalitas since I could sacrifice any zombie tokens if they activated their Priest. I think cast Path of Peril on turn 4 and they scooped 😂

    Thank you for the vid Bobby. I am back in the Pio streets and great to hear your insight into the format again. I especially found the discussion about Liliana vs lotus helpful. I knew it was good vs lotus, but did not fully appreciate. Was very surprised at your keep of 6 with Liliana being your first play, but your explanation helped convince me. Loved the excitement to play dross t3 vs monog lol "Long pauses are good for me" should be on a t-shirt
