    This format really is the best way to play arena as cheep as possible!
    I think it would be cool to see this being recommended as a guide to play to arena in the cheapest way.
    Only having to collect one of each card.
    Spending Less Wild Cards.
    Staples across multiple decks.
    I'd love to see more, not just for myself, but for new players!

    I'm pretty confident that Gix allows you to cast the cards at any time you activate it. It's worded the exact same way as Golos, who also let you play sorceries at instant speed

    • @noahcarroll4944
      @noahcarroll4944 Před rokem +20

      Golos doesn't let you play sorceries at instant speed. He says "You may cast them this turn without paying their mana costs." That doesn't ignore timing restrictions. Gix, however, does, as he doesn't give you any deadline on when you can not cast the cards anymore, so you have to play them as part of the resolution of Gix's ability.

    • @durandle9226

    At 30:00, you ask if you can cast spells with Gix in the middle of combat. It is worth mentioning you already know that Gix lets you bypass timing restrictions because you cast all the spells at once during the resolution of his ability. You don't normally have permission to cast spells during the resolution of any ability.

    i don't know if this was intentional by the design team, but this gix kinda perfectly captures his story in yawgmoth's origin. he started leading a rebellion against yawgmoth (all the small evasive creatures) but was taken and converted into a praetor, the thing he was fighting (taking from your opponent's deck)

    Thanks to this deck I managed to go 16-0 in Historic Brawl (sure 12 of those games were because of salty scoopers that were gone by turn 3 when I played gix but it's still 16-0)

  • @myanrueller91
    @myanrueller91 Před rokem

    I play a lot of historic brawl, and the early scoop is something I’m definitely guilty of and trying to get better at that. There is one commander I refuse to play against on principle, Golos, because it’s banned in Commander and all the reasons for its ban get so much more obvious in a 1v1 format.
    But I could definitely get better at not salty scooping. I think a reason for it is that there is no ranking on the line, and scooping periodically doesn’t hurt your account.

    So many Myriel decks in historic brawl run a bunch of cards (such as the luminary aspirant in game 2) that just have nothing to do with soldiers at all, and something about that just really ticks me off. If you’re going to build a deck around a soldier commander, then build a deck with soldiers!

  • @Red_Mage__
    @Red_Mage__ Před rokem

    The "early scoop" thing is an issue with 2 player brawl vs 4 player, they both have a lot of snowballing but 4 player at least lets you gang up on someone who pulls too far ahead. At least with 3 or 4 people if you get off to an awkward start, you can maybe go under the radar a bit while other people throw resources at each other.
    I feel like typical commander decks often lead to uninteresting 2 player games, though other singleton formats seem to manage it fine. Might just be that, compared to regular 2 player singleton, commanders themselves are too strong in the same way that companions were, especially when they ramp or draw cards.
