    The guy with 4 chrysalises in a row... what a beating!

    • @travismackenzie
      @travismackenzie Před 2 měsíci +1

      did anyone else see the line where we could win that game when they were at 10. Give the death toucher the pump spell since it also gives trample, pump it even more with landfall and then they either lose all their board or go to four and the next turn we'd have killed them with skoa.

    Malevolent rumble being up there in the numbers makes sense, since it curves into and finds Chrys

    I like how the cherry on top is that the thing has reach. Was reach REALLY necessary?

    • @MLopezEfren
      @MLopezEfren Před 2 měsíci +4

      I said in another comments thread that I think the reach is what actually breaks it in draft. Because then other colors like white, black, and blue, who have strong flying creatures, can't even go over it.

  • @SpiritOfLenin
    @SpiritOfLenin Před 2 měsíci +5

    i have no idea why they decided the chrysalis was appropriate as a common. it would be busted at uncommon, but at least it would be rarer - as a common its just stupid. at least eventually it will be so heavily prioritized by a lot of people that various shades of GR(U) decks will suffer from lower card quality as people try to force the best decks

    • @SpiritOfLenin
      @SpiritOfLenin Před 2 měsíci +1

      I also just realized that for some reason this time white isn't the color that is very good at spamming tons of tiny creatures and tokens, even though that's usually a big part of its color identity. Eldrazi-token spam is just a lot more effective and more prevalent in green and blue.

  • @RW77777777

  • @larrychatfield
    @larrychatfield Před 2 měsíci +6

    one of those stupid card where they literally amp up every dial on a card. chrysalis probably should have read (at common at least) +1 until end of turn

  • @thiagoaprovado

    I didn't watched the video yet but I have to agree with the title. Crys is absurd!

  • @AlkonKomm
    @AlkonKomm Před 2 měsíci +6

    gotta be honest most of these games were not particularly interesting, I highly doubt this set is gonna be an all timer
    there are so many mechanics and pockets of synergy in this set, but what good does it do when a 4 mana 4/5 that ramps you (and has reach) is at common and better than most rares?

  • @sbr_bld7154
    @sbr_bld7154 Před 2 měsíci +3

    I know everyone's focused on Chrys, but I'm surprised not to find other comments on this: In the last game Suppression Ray didn't work the way its supposed to. You can't stun a creature that was already tapped, so the Skoa shouldn't have gotten stunned and you should have won. Both the release notes for MH3 and the rulings on gatherer state that the spell only let's you stun creatures that the spell tapped. Skoa was already tapped from attacking on you turn.

  • @joseluki

    Crysalis, ruiner of happiness.
    Did they even do any playtesting? They had to see how warping this stupid card is.

  • @SixSidedVice
    @SixSidedVice Před 2 měsíci +3

    Not that it needs the extra support, but curving Fanatic of Rhonas into Writhing Chrysalis sets you up with 9 mana on T4 even before making a fourth land drop. I'm not ready to call it a mistake but *crikey* it felt broken.

  • @smargio
    @smargio Před 2 měsíci +4

    Yeah, I hope it doesnt end up warping the format too much around it. Im not very hopeful though. I genuinely don't understand how this got through testing.

  • @JQuill116
    @JQuill116 Před 2 měsíci +4

    It's just every aspect of the card is pushed like 1 level to make it busted. If it didn't have reach, if it had 2 toughness, if it just made 1 spawn, if it only got +1/+1 until end of turn, if it cost 5 mana. Any of these probably would have made it very good but not stupid busted.

  • @minasparker1421
    @minasparker1421 Před 2 měsíci +2

    I heavily suspect they made the bombs even bombier in this format, not just 'cause Commander Horizons, but because they knew it was going on Arena, and they didn't want inexperienced players to just never be able to win against better ones.
    Except the experienced players will still win with the busted commons and their deck just generally being better drafted, and the uber-bombs just ruin the games between experienced players, which was originally supposed to be the whole point of Modern Horizons in the first place...

    I think you are still right about synergy mattering a lot in the set. Forcing the best color combo and cards doesn't always work.

      Honestly would be easily fixed by either just upshifting the rarity to reflect the bomb it is, or making it 0, sac an eldrazi: gain a +1/+1 counter so it doesn't grow stupidly big without consuming resources while still being very strong
