  • We are thrilled to announce that this week we have none other than Hall of Fame member Frank Karsten himself facing off this week against Mythic Invitational Champion Andrea Mengucci in a clash of titans. Can Frank, piloting the cheapest competitive deck in modern, defeat Andrea playing the best deck in the format?

      Absolutely. I would occasionally look down at the time of the video and be like "oh, okay, we're like halfway through, he's gonna win game 2 bringing it to a tie" but no, plot twist!

  • @jongibson4766

    It would be super cool if you included more post-game chat like this in your newer videos too. I don't think there's any better way to learn new things about magic than to watch two Pros sit down, jam a game, then sit there and talk about what just happened for 10 minutes. Also the spoiler buffer would be pretty cool on the new best-standard-deck series

    • @CardmarketMagic
      @CardmarketMagic  Před rokem +13

      We usually avoid doing this because the amount of clicks on videos suffer the longer it is. But wif we ever get to a viewership like Game Knights, then we could look into doing this :)

    I've only started playing recently, so I dont know anything about these big name players. However, the editing for those matches is what keeps me coming back as someone who doesnt know anything about a lot of those cards its nice to have time to read and hear what the strats and thoughts are for players.

    • @Lightning_Lance
      @Lightning_Lance Před rokem +4

      as a new player, Frank Karsten's articles on mana bases are the best place to learn how to build decks when you want to step up your game

    • @aggedon7483
      @aggedon7483 Před rokem +1

      Hugely agree, one of the biggest things that drew me to this channel was that as someone who only started playing in recent years I didn't know much about formats that utilised a lot of older cards and combos, and because of the steep learning curve due to the sheer number of decks and cards over the longer time period, largely ignored these formats completely.
      Cardmarket provides a great entry point to these formats with the explanations of what the cards do, what the deck strategies are etc. and the little sidebars during the game where players discuss their hand and plays are always super interesting and insightful. Hope you guys keep all this going 🙂

      People ask for this every once in a while. Problem is, the edits and animations for these videos take days to make. We already have a problem with people skipping game 2 when they see that the video goes on for longer, we definitely know people would stop watching during the "game for fun" as there are no longer any stakes. I can't afford to spend an extra day working on a game that everyone will skip :/

    E.g. what is the best deck they can build for €50? €100? €200? €300?
    Where would they spend their budget, and how? Do they start with the best pauper deck and substitute in one ofs, or do they substitute in multiple bulk rares or mythics instead?
    Might make for an interesting deck tech video.

      If rules text specifies it, some cards can be triggered from your hand. The second paragraph on orvar has a trigger happen if an opponent makes you discard it.
      When Archon of Cruelty enters the battlefield, it makes your opponent's discard a card. Frank used that to his advantage
