    Content idea: when blake comes back, please please please play a pseudo prismatic game, where everyone will have a monocolored EDH deck and will have two allies and two enemies like the color pie we know and love. A player wins the game when they have no enemies left, so players should actively try to protect their allies while trying to defeat their enemies.

      Early ramp, a fast Seedborn Muse and a Rhystic Study, and in the midgame a massive amount of mana and both a handful of giant monsters available and a bunch more possible off his assorted threat generators. In what world was Ben not the threat? Even post Cyclonic he was the obvious hit; you want to do enough damage to encourage the Arix to hold back on defense or, as Gina did, get some political leverage out of it.
      If anything, he probably wasn't targeted enough - you couldn't have convinced me to target that Mirari's Wake over the Mana Reflection in Shay's position for basically anything.

    • @jimmyjoema6675
      @jimmyjoema6675 Před rokem

      @Kestral287 This is why we have things called opinions and different play styles. I see a larger threat and if you can't see that then that's why we are different players . Some times you have to keep people who are "big" on board around so they can help and use there stuff so you can maybe go after them next. Some times it is a mind game and you have to look at the bigger picture.

    @glacen Před rokem +1

    Fun game to watch! *Spoiler* I'm wondering if CGB could've killed both Gina and Shae on that last turn if he placed his +1/+1 counters differently and maybe moved the equipment around differently. There's so much going on each time I couldn't keep track of it even when watching from home so you can't really blame him if he did miss the win.

    • @Kestral287
      @Kestral287 Před rokem +1

      It's very, very close but as best I can tell from the known information he can't. He doesn't actually have many available attackers - the Extortionist, Rocco, and Bloom Tender are it. Shay has one blocker that he can't evasion past at all, and Gina has one that dodges the Sword and one that dodges the Extortionist so both forms of evasion are needed on her. That makes the equipment pretty much locked. So what he would have to do is build both Rocco and Bloom Tender up to be lethal threats on Shay and equip up the Extortionist against Gina. There are two 'wasted' +1/+1 counters on the Fireweaver, two on the Germ, and four (five, but we have to work in increments of two) on Rocco, so even if all of those went to Tender in addition to its own it would be a 9/10 - big, but not big enough to threaten lethal.
      And the Tender was providing additional value by not attacking too; any sort of kill is extremely uncertain here due to Shay very obviously holding an instant of some form, but CGB was going to see two more cards off of the Sword. That means holding the extra mana from Tender is almost certainly worthwhile. It turned out to not be needed, but three colors has a good bit of value in that spot.

    As someone mentioned in the chat at the end, CGB ended up fumbling this game. The Aerial Extortionist can "exile up to one target nonland permanent" on dealing combat damage, not just ETB. So he could have targeted Shea's Sigarda, causing it to be summoning sick on recast on her turn. She would only have had Angel of Jubilation able to attack for 6 infect, not 10+.

    Just found this channel after watching CGB arena vids for the last 4-5 months. Great idea, but unfortunately the implementation doesn’t make a great viewing experience… I can’t see the cards. Need to pop them out on the screen when they’re played… probably a really labour intensive thing though! Sorry, will check this out in a few months to see how it progresses
