I agree with Reid about playing 4 bolts: 4 bolts in a deck is a plan, 3 bolts is just rendundancy of removals

2:10:10 You should've binned the Murktide off the top of your library because once the Rec Sage kills your Totem you'll have delirium for channeler to be out of range from Yawg pinging it away without them saccing three creatures and boom ya won on the crack back!

I love breach - and I HATE Spell Snare. The only important things it hits over Stern Scolding are like R&6, CS, Cauldron, and a few sideboard options. I don't even run it anymore and I don't miss it. I DO run 4x lightning bolt though - often you bolt your opponent 5 times and that's all the damage you deal to them through the game and it's lethal with their fetch/shocking, or it forces them to be less greedy about that next game.

21:00 this is why ive been considering if Fable is main deckable. Threat, looting, end game plan. Seems solid but it is 3 cmc.

[@felipeemar]

You could keep hearse on top and exile an instant tô pump the final 1 damage against yawg right?

[@SnapD24]

No Subtlety or Tidecaller feels strange to me, but it seemed to work.

[@captainberrios]

Aw hell yeah

[@alonzor557]

UR one of the best classic color combos in Magic!

[@Luqmas]

Can't you dash Ragavan, exile Footfalls and then suspend it with the treasure?

[@alexanderespinoza]

I think suspending it is a game mechanic that only works in your hand

Idk if it's the editing or what, but CFB content has really seemed lacking. A Reid Duke modern video should have wayyyy more than 8k views on day 5. I can't exactly articulate what makes videos like from BoshNRoll so much more engaging, but CFB videos practically kickstarted this entire form of content and it's rough seeing it fall behind.

[@joshua_lee732]

Im sold of Murktide, but not sold of ragavahn or channeler. I think this deck should move to a more classic UR tempo shell.

[@isaakward4393]

I feel like this channel would do so much better if they changed their editing style. There is a lot of dead air, which is fine the player doesn’t need to speak every second. Issue is we aren’t playing so dead air does nothing. Just cut them out when there are no game actions or words being spoken

[@pneu_8365]

It’s just live stream uploads sorry dawg, try card market or goldfish or something

[@cjcrabtree1242]

@@pneu_8365true but he isn’t wrong saying it would do much better if they edited it down

[@NYBumkinMTG-zo8nu]

On the other side, I prefer real time editing rather than only action. I like the real feel of a game/video not bombardment of “thing thing thing thing thing”. Just some personalities are better at videos than others. This is where the quality of the video selection is involved, the human. IMO

[@Generic42]

Disagree, I like seeing the plays in real time. Gives me time to think.

[@cjcrabtree1242]

@@Generic42 you can also pause the video to do so
