    Ramp is definitely my favorite archetype and would love to see a version of this video about that. Ramp is definitely one of the more diverse archetypes around as well.
    Eldrazi would cool for a tribe. Anybody who wasn't around during Eldrazi Winter that deck was so stacked im definitely sure it would still be top tier despite how much power Modern has now.

  • @TheSquareOnes
    @TheSquareOnes Před 3 lety +4

    Honestly my favorite part of the top 10s is the little bits of historical context you provide for why the cards made the list so this might actually become my preferred series if you do more, so yes please do more.

  • @SirZapdos
    @SirZapdos Před 3 lety +1

    Worth noting that Extended and Legacy goblins decks also functioned as pseudo land destruction decks, with 4 Wasteland and 4 Rishadan Port, which could steal games against clunkier decks / manabases. One interesting spin on Goblins was the Legacy version that splashed white for Thalia, Guardian of Thraben. The idea being that quickly flooding the board with goblins, Thalia's taxing and the various land disruption could be enough to keep the opponent off balance or straight up locked out entirely, while your board of goblins ran them over. It was a bit of a flash in the pan though, although it did score some decent finishes at SCG events back in 2013 (I think).
    In terms of ideas for other decks, one could be blue-white control. Starting with The Deck and also covering Caw-Blade, Delver (this is more aggro-control, but still), Sphinx's Rev, Flash and finally Teferi, HoD. I'm sure there are others, but there's a lot just in the last 10 years.

    This is a great idea to create its own series about. Having played Goblins throughout the years and seeing were I dropped off at should be interesting, if my current build is even on the list. Which should say something that even not watching more than the introduction, am hyping this video and would love to see more when like Drew Armstrong, the Glorious Lobster Emperor put it, that means more Nizzahon videos, which is a Win/Win however you look at it.

This format fits quite well into the purposes of this channel, and makes a powerful contribution to the informative aspect of the MTG Top 10s. I hope to see more, especially with my favorites tribes (wizards, hydras, soldiers and giants)

    - I like to see what cards are part of the deck, could you rotate more the specific cards on the video?
    - What are the win condition on these decks, like... what are the 2 or 3 cards one has to draw to swing a win?
    - Onde created, what happened to the deck after the next rotation of sets? Did it migrated do other category? New cards got in? Which ones?
    - Does the deck exists today? Does it have a spiritual sucessor?

  • @jamesgasik3424
    @jamesgasik3424 Před 3 lety

    More of these please! Something you will start to note in these videos is how much Onslaught changed Magic; before, sure, there were tribal payoffs, but Onslaught really kicked the concept of tribal decks into high gear. Nobody was running zombies until Onslaught, and then, it was like we couldn't get rid of them! I really like the lesser tribes, the ones that never quite made it, but I'm sure there isn't a lot of room in this series for Vedalken or Minotaurs. Dwarf Tribal was lackluster in Fallen Empires and only recently became viable. My vote for the next video is Spirit tribal, which I think only started with Kamigawa block.

    I had a casual izzet goblin deck way back when that focused on pinging everything to death. Was such a fun deck.
    Intruder alarm, quicksilver dagger, pemmin's aura, sigil of sleep, razorfin Hunter were some of the blue I splashed. Of course, being a casual deck it exploited recruiter and lackey, naturally.

    I love the video, and I think this series is a great idea for you. Not only does it fit neatly into the kinds of videos you make, I think the addition of a coherent narrative of "these cards came out and made the deck viable in X format, but it also brought back these other older cards, etc." does a lot for the format. I think this is a great idea for you, as someone interested in history, and I'm stoked to see what else you choose to cover in it!
    Personally, I think Burn, Storm, and everyone's favorite Tron should come up at some point

    @andrewp38 Před 3 lety +1

    Really enjoyed this and looking forward to more. I'd be interested in seeing a somewhat deeper discussion of the decks -- how they fared in their meta at the time, more focus on each card in the deck rather than just the key ones. There's a similar kind of brevity here as with your top 10s but this series seems like a opportunity to take a slightly different approach perhaps. One of the things I sometimes wonder about in the top 10s in the relevance of the "lesser" cards in the decks and I'd be into that kind of analysis here.

    quite the fun series I'd say :) as someone who never played competitive mtg, it's really interesting to see a whole other side to the game and how it works!

    Answering your question, I totally enjoyed it!
    As a casual player, this video brought me a lot of interesting information about one of my favorite decks.
