    I remember when Yarok was spoiled, man I was so excited. New commander for me. So me and a couple of friends head into town and stop by the game shop and they have these M20 planeswalker decks already for sale a couple of weeks before M20 was coming out, so we all thought why not pick one up. One friend wasn't to be paid until the end of the week however, so I covered it for him no problem. These planeswalker decks came with an M20 booster in them, and by this point they both knew how excited I was for Yarok, then the friend I bought the deck for open hs pack and lo and behold, what does he pull? He pulls a foil Yarok in the pack I bought him before my very eyes. Was he gragious? Was he fuck. That very Yarok then went on to torment the rest of out playgroup for the next year-year and a half. Good times

      no idea why people play Brawl, spend even money on Wildcards for Brawl and signaling WotC that Brawl is okay. Simply boycott this horrible play format and force WotC to implement real EDH. If I want to play against Mono Red Aggro, I queue in Standard, Explorer or Historic, but no, those people are even in Brawl.

    My Craterhoof I will always refer to as Chadhoof. I had a crappy opening hand and had to put it on the bottom of the deck. I ended up getting it on the same turn I got my 8th land because of deck shuffling. I was so sad, because my go-to finisher was on the bottom of the deck. And it still ended up being my finisher right after I used cultivate. Cultivate was the first time I reshuffled my deck. The RNG gods blessed me so hardcore to the point I felt dirty even winning that match.

    Hi LVD, quick question I've always wondered. Is there a reason you don't use card art when showing off decks (parallax or alternate art)? Is it for clarity sake? The Explore alternate art made me think of it.

    • @LegenVD
      @LegenVD  Před rokem +6

      I avoid parallax styles because it would cause jarring transitions during the hundreds of editing cuts in every video. Without those styles it’s easier to make seamless transitions. Flying creatures are still the worst though 😂

    In the first game (~12:00) I'd block courier with cobra so if they do decide to sac it instead of trade you keep the cobra for more mana instead of the 1/1 which has already used its effect, and the steamkin would still die since it's a 1/1 at base so you only need to deal 1 to kill it if they use its mana effect.

      @LegenVD  Před rokem

      Ritual can be decent here, although with all the other ramp in the deck it can be redundant and cheating out Yarok doesn't necessarily do much by itself if it can get answered. I like Ritual a lot more in monoblack decks or any commander with a strong ETB effect or a Planeswalker. Wash Away can be great too, but this deck usually wants to tap out so can be awkward to keep up mana for it. Sometimes it's better to go for you own synergies and overpower the opponent as opposed to trying to interact on the stack.
