Watching Seth Blood Moon the Omnath evoke elemental deck into a scoop is one of the most satisfying things, like a shot of dopamine directly into the brain. The epitome of what blood moon is supposed to be for, and why it's my favorite card in all of magic.
I love watching greedy decks insta-scoop to blood moon...I love even more watching them play a couple turns as it dawns on them it's over.
i agree and approve
All these years later, and we're still snap-bolting. We miss you, OG Innistrad.
Make Snapcaster Great Again
I would kill to have some dark ascension or innistrad drafts on arena. loved that format
The other nice thing about Tamiyo, even if you don't flip her, she still shuts down turn 1 Ragavan.
True. Requires the opp to have fatal push or bolt. Unholy Heat probably won't kill her yet(although would after blocking the ragavan)
@@mattm7798 and all you need to protect her is a brainstorm and 1 blue mana. She flips in other players turns as well.
@@wurgel1 true, so spell pierce is back in the main deck :) That said, in modern, it's much hard(impossible) to find a 1 mana modern legal spell that allows you to leave up 1 mana.
If she does succeed in modern, it will be the ragavan effect...if you have interaction, you keep playing, if not, tamyiyo spirals into a win con so fast. I would say just run izzet with both monkey and tamiyo and use izzet charm to flip her or protect her :)
That is why you should not concede that early in the game. The game where he did not concede because "you should not concede in early access" he won
Even if you win 1 out of 10 of those games, id rather scoop early to the 9 i lose and enjoy myself instead of grinding through those losses for that one win
@PaperySloth I agree, personally i think the only reason to concede is it increases the fun I have
Ive definitely scooped in games i was necessarily losing but it just felt awful to play
Yup - if you’re just playing for fun, scoop if you’re not having fun!
If you’re grinding, behooves one to play it out.
@@PaperySloth but when you're playing for content and you know (or should know) you have definite outs and you know your audience will be frustrated by seeing you scoop with outs, it's a great idea to not concede. And here it turned out even better!
I think many people don't understand when to concede. Far to many stay in games they have no outs for
Fun drinking game for an Against the Odds episode: take a shot every time Seth says "this deck actually might be busted"
My liver would die
I don't have enough alcohol for that
I built a tamiyo moon deck yesterday. Get out of my head, Seth.
Did you also eat 7 full fried chickens covered in gravy and donut glaze like diabetarmonicon?
@@BM-on4buwhat
@@BM-on4bu I don't eat meat, but I was going to eat exactly that before I realized there was meat in fried chicken! Uncanny 🤔
lmao, Seth rubbing it in against the Omnath deck
Couldn’t you play black and just utilize deadly dispute? Tamiyo only specifies drawing 3 cards in a turn (including the one from draw step) and tamiyo attacks to create the clue that you can sacrifice to DD anyways. On top of that having a treasure to hold up a fatal push, or other interaction possibly. Making it even more boring you can play Sheoldred and Bowmasters and still keep the blue moon effect.
Going into Black might be correct because WotC have pushed black beyond every other color
Would also work with Faithless Looting, is that on arena yet?
Faithless Looting is on arena, from the strixhaven mystical archive bonus sheet
@@hamish2509And just from shadows over innistrad
@@hamish2509 not just there. Faithless Looting was later released as a common in Innistrad remastered.
"Tamiyo might be busted..." He says after casting 3 copies of Mana Drain lmao
Ok change it to Counterspell what really changes on his following turn
@epothos1 I'm just saying, his statement, While hilarious, is incorrect. You can't necessarily judge a cards worth when you have to have half of your other cards dedicated to protecting it.
Also, as he stated later in the video, the deck is incredibly poor at closing the game, which is bad deck design
@@DGDevastation if you can draw your deck after a few turns with a blue no hand size limit - it is busted
Blue control can profit a lot from it
Blue white control can profit a lot from it
And thats the point: Its good for exactly this
You have less troubles with aggro cause of +1 ability, you get your control heaven hand
Every busted card is only busted in its context
@@DGDevastation
No it’s not bad deck design.
Several best control decks in history of magic were either winconless or had the similar flaw.
Take Lantern control for example
@@deutscher1aexactly right. Mana drain is very average in this deck. Tamiyo seems great in this format, and the "busted card" that makes this work really is brainstorm.
I built a dimir shell with frog, pitching 20 cards to a little frog is my favorite way to win to date
Tbh tamiyo seems great with frogs
I've been playing frog decks in both modern and timeless, it's super fun
@Cloudy573 I really wanna make a frog tokens deck but I don't see many frog cards
the thing w tamiyo is, she's a 1 mana planeswalker that can flip super easily, has a +2 so effectively 5 starting health which is insane for a cheap planeswalker, and that +2 also protects her from multiple sources of damage. she was def designed to ultimate it feels like
I agree with Seth on blood moon. God I wish it was available for historic.
That first game made me realise what the downside of Mana Drain as opposed to Counterspell is supposed to be: Mana Burn. In this game if mana burn had existed still, he would have taken 7 damage from it after countering the titan of industry
Great content Seth. I couldn't look away once. Reminds me of modern snap bolt days.
Seth. The bands you mention throughout. 🔥 🔥 and just saying grindcore is hilarious
Crabcore Troll of Kazad-Dûm with the bass guitar going wild
I loved how you acted when you blood mooned the omnath deck. Hahaha
the blood moon conversation at the end is so freaking needed lol
need a chandra TOD to finish the game faster. 2 copies... should find it with tamyo ult.
Yeah Tamiyo very powerful. Yesterday had a long and interactive Modern game where I was playing Grixis Phoenix using Buried alive, and I was playing against Mono Black Coffers. Game was very interactive but Tamiyo generated like 5 Clues and then flipped, and even though it cost me 3 Shredders I got to the ultimate and then you know, the super close game became an easy w. All in all not bad for a 1 mana card to draw 5 and later draw 16
Gotta love the Blood Moon
Would it be beneficial to add 1 copy of wren and 7 to dump all the lands you draw?
Great video and deck idea Seth! Loved it
There actually is a card with dredge now, the necrobloom gives lands in your graveyard dredge 2
Seth riffing on Psychic Frog for the entire match was hilarious.
You dont really need brainstorm to flip her.
In historic you can do it turn 2 with sign in blood/chart a course/faithless looting and your drawstep
Exactly. If Tamiyo need 3 extra cards to flip, then yes, but it's just 3, so it's 2 cards and there are a ton of 2 mana draw 2.
Hear me out hear me out, turbo fog. +2 is a mini fog, -3 recurs a fog, -7 is a wincon that can be easily achieved through protecting it with fogs. Also if you use a teferi’s tutelage version turning your card draw into mill all of the brainstorms and other effects become much better and the -7 becomes an instant win without extra trouble. Plus things like the one ring act as fog, card draw, mill, and Tamio flipper. Plus you could add in the six and one ring loop as an extra wincon
Tamiyo seems, among a few notable others, the perfect epitome of MH3. It's specifically strong in the control shell instead of broadly good and I appreciate that
"Not supposed to scoop early" felt like 75% of your opponents scooped in this video lmao
Seth at 43:26 made me lol so hard in the middle of the gym 😂
Seth, have you worked with Case of Pilfered Proof the and Ulvenwald Mysteries before? Crack a clue, get a 1/1 human creature token, when the token etbs, you get a clue?
Combo requirements are heavy, but it's not the infinite combo itself that's fun, it's the clues you crack along the way. Case of the PP combo makes for a funny, if immature, name as well.
Combo requirements: Case of the pilfered proof needs to be in play and online (so 3x assorted detectives in play at some point prior.) Ulvenwald mysteries must be in play. At this point the combo is functional, but not infinite. Add in a way to infinitely sac artifacts for free to finish the combo.
Recommend tamyo's journal to help find combo pieces. I'd send my decklist, but frankly you'd probably replace 90% of it anyway since I'm pretty casual.
3:31 this far in, hope it works well since Timless feels so stale it needs more decks to break into the T1
Totally nock mocking the Omnath player with that Blood Moon speech. Totally fine.
Tamiyo having a +2 instead of a +1 and giving -1 to your opponent's attackers every turn until she ultimates seems pretty freakin solid. Not Oko but still blue green good stuff and in this case you only need UR or UU or maybe a couple extra mana to make her a planeswalker turn 2. We've already seen how dangerous cards that cost 1GU have been lately. This is on par.
Add Dreamtide whale so that it would synergize with the brainstorm and tamiyo?
I can't be the only one who is still annoyed that Lightning Bolt still has the fire sfx and vfx as opposed to the lightning ones. I don't even play a format it's legal in but it still gets me when I watch content with it.
This week we got a Drawfee episode called "Opening Magic Packs [...]" and an MTGGoldfish episode titled "Drawing [...]"
The necrobloom has dredge on it and it's from mh3
Feels good man
I had never seen a psychic frog before. That card is fucking adorable.
Some rise. Some fall. Some crawl. To get to psychic frog. Shit, now I have the dead in my head. Wait, were you also humming Terrapin?
I love the outcome of that last match! 😂
I've heard people calling Harbinger of the Seas, Flood Moon. Sounded cute.
Didn't think I'd hear a King Gizz reference in a MTGA video
is it correct to have mana drain with no mana sinks?
Liked the video for Seth's Evoke Elementals meming
Is timeless or historic closer to modern? I know neither are really but I’m just curious what has the bigger and more fun card pool
So this is a weird question for the nerds in the comments
Why the heck does Tamiyo's backside have a dual-color border? She is still simply Blue from the front-side cost right? Since she has no text saying she's now Blue-Green, nor an alternative backside cost, she just has her -3 interact with Green
Silly question: Mox Amber seems to be the only permanent fast mana available in Timeless. What about playing that because you can turn 1 Island, Tamiyo, Mox, Brainstorm and have it as a Planeswalker on turn 1? Is it worth it?
There are two cards I associate with Seth moth than any other card - blood moon and siege rhino.
Tamiyo and Kappa won me several games in a draft, even though I rare-drafted. That combo by itself is nasty enough it gets busted if allowed to linger.
Love the moon deck with my favorite moonfolk 🥲
Doesn't tamiyo trigger on a 'draw two' spell and not draw three? You draw one at the start of your turn right? Am I missing something here? Why does it have to be brainstorm? Does the draw at the start of the turn not count?
For a finisher I would suggest something like Glint-Horn Buccaneer plus Bomat Courier.
Your punishing rant earned a like
That was a pure Blood Moon Scoop win, wasn’t it? I don’t think he had basic lands…
Nothing more Seth than drawing half your deck
It's like tasha, unholy archmage expect it's cheaper, can make a clue, has a +2 instead of a +1, sticks around after the ultimate because 8 - 7 is 1, and they slapped draw half your deck on it instead of steal three random creatures from your opponent's deck. The only "downsides" are it can be bolted or pushed away, you have to wait a turn to flip it if you play it on turn 1, and you have to cast brainstorm or something else that draws enough cards to flip it. OH NO! NOT DRAWING CARDS! Yeah this card's insane.
Tasha's plus ability is stronger because it gives -1 to toughness as well, but in terms of the planeswalker protecting themselves, they both do basically the same thing in most cases. I would argue that both of their pluses are equal as powerful if you consider the affect and the amount of loyalty gained. Tasha has the upside of killing 1 toughness creatures, but Tamiyo has the upside of gaining 2 loyalty instead of 1. If 2 damage is getting through to these planeswalkers each turn, then Tasha will be losing loyalty, whereas Tamiyo's loyalty will stay the same, and it would require 3 damage to be getting through in order for Tamiyo's loyalty to start going down.
Tasha can also ultimate 1 turn sooner, but it won't stick around if you do that. If you want tasha to stick around, then they both ultimate in the same number of turns. And I'm comparing Tamiyo to Tasha because it's one of if not the closest comparison, and it's still not even close. Tamiyo is absolutely insane.
It's hard to counter Tamiyo both physically, like game rules, and mentally. Physical - Some formats really struggle to or can't counter a turn 1 Tamiyo if they are on the draw. If we're talking standard, paying the 1, 2, or 3 is pretty easy since it's only 1 mana. Mental - It really just feels bad if you counter a 1 mana spell whether it's Tamiyo or brainstorm, especially if it's later in the game, but the card is so powerful, you might have to.
Also, Tamiyo is above the curve in terms of power and toughness. Having 3 toughness is no big deal in formats with bolt and push. The extra point of toughness might stop an unholy heat, but that's about it, but in standard, a 3 toughness creature usually requires 2 mana to kill.
In conclusion, cards that give you an upside for doing what you already want to do are always very powerful. Tamiyo doesn't require you to go out of your way AT ALL in order to get it's upside. Tamiyo is insane and is looking like the new Ragavan of MTG.
I'm with Seth 100% when it comes to Blood Moon. Domain and land based decks can be a very oppressive and hard to interact with deck because a lot of it's power comes from it's mana base and it's lands. Players have gotten too comfy running optimized mana bases and basic checking is a valid strategy. Every deck has a weakness, and domain/lands is blood moon. Blood moon is not an unbeatable card by any stretch.
Wouldn't treasure cruise be better than brain surge?
Dodging gy hate? With Scam and just reanimation running wild on the meta
Not if you're trying to flip by turn 3. Treasure Cruise is much better in graveyard focused decks or for the late game.
If you do the math, assuming optimal grave filling, you fetch land + 1 mana spell turn 1 (2), fetch land + two 1 mana spells turn 2 (5), fetch land + 1 mana spell (7) + Tamiyo + cruise turn 3. Too many things need to go right to pull that off.
Edit: just remembered DRC, but that doesn't help the math much. Turn 1 fetch + DRC (1), turn 2 fetch + two 1 mana spells + 2 DRC bins (6), turn 3 fetch land + one mana spell + DRC bin (9) + Tamiyo + Cruise. So it gives you a grand buffer of 2 whole cards by turn 3.
@@joelhatterini6392 that's fair. Good point
I do think faithless looting would be way better though, the difference between 1 and 3 means you can flip tamiyo on T2 if you draw it or flip tamiyo + leave up counter later
I think if I had to play this on arena, I'd be searching for the "Planeswalkers don't talk" button in settings...
Tamiyo says third card, so anything that draws 2 cards will also flip tamiyo if you started the turn with her in play. Theres a boatload of cards that draw 2 like Faithless.
How about a set of Lotus Paddles?
You could flip her on the first turn and could easily produce Red mana after Bloodmoon
I knew I very polarity was going to be good as soon as I saw it.
If I had a nickel for every time a Planeswalker’s Ultimate gave you an Emblem that only said “You have no maximum hand size” on it, I’d have 3 nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened again!
Think of Tamiyo as a card that says 1 blue, suspend 4, draw 20.
That's how it's better than Ragavan.
Tamiyo in brainstorm format seems pretty nuts. Also note Tamiyo only needs to draw 3 total cards in a turn so 1 and 2 mana draw two effects also flip her turn 2(things like chart a course, izzet charm, and tempest heart)
This almost feels like teaching arena about bloodmoon episode 2
Yep Tamiyo is actually busted. Being able to get it down turn 1 and block Ragavan, or swing for clues, or attempt to flip it turn 2 either way its doing awesome stuff and I'd be very surprised if she didn't become a modern and legacy staple
Hey Seth, what about adding the new Ral to the decklist?
I feel like Chart a Course might be better than Brainsurge in some ways. 2 mana and flips tamiyo
Was expecting the "And Seth beat me silly with blood moon in early access..." to be in this, mehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :p
You were looking for a discover card to play with beanstalks, etalis favor. If etalis favor and beanstalk are the only cards mana value two or less in the deck, then the first cast etalis favor plays at least one beanstalk. Bonus if there are still more etalis favor in the deck. But if you hit an etalies favor, you cast that and start over untill you get beanstalks.
but then you have to play bad cards to make creatures to put it on
@@Matthill121 i mean, shardless agent is a bad card (except fire the cascade), but made it in the banned beans deck
@@jacobbrj I more mean cards that are CMC 4 or higher that can make a creature to target by t3
Can't you target an oppenent's creature with etali's favor? Not like it is backbreaking to give +1/+1 as a cost to discover into beans? Lol. I think it is worth a try even though i see your point
@@jacobbrj if the idea is that you can hit multiple favors to guarantee you'll eventually get beans, that would mean it would be occasionally +4/+4 to an opponents creature to draw a card
The new flair is stupid in dredge. Is a free counterspell. Just a literal free cause you just get your creature back anyway.
Grixis with the frogatog might be the way to go
Is there a cool top-end card we could play as a one-of just to use some Mana Drain mana? Not like you need something to make Mana Drain better, but it might help if you've drawn half your deck and need a way to close out the game.
Most blood moon decks are either way more aggressive with ragavan and DRC, Delver etc, or they play a sneak attack shell, playing neither is definitely an early access deck made by somebody who doesn’t play the archetype thing (also lorien revealed/treasure cruise is great for mana drain mana, not having either is a crime in 2024)
Seth popped off that last game
"Moons over my Tammy" is right there but everyone is calling it "tamiyo moon" instead
If you play Mox Amber then you could play Tamiyo and Brainstorm on turn 1 rather then wait untill turn 2.
I want to brew with her in blue white control in modern. With the new magus of the seas lol.
31:06
"Steal This Album" by System of a Down
Beat me to it
Seth wondering what dredge gets from mh3 like buried alive wasn't reprinted.
You think I should put a couple copies of Tamiyo in my DanDan deck? Would it be too good?
What are the best budget ways to draw half your deck?
31:22 that's kinda how i've been feeling when trying to run a mostly black grief list. i thoughtseize and i inquisition of kozilek and i grief and i reanmiate, then i have no cards in hand and have dealt 10 life to myself. then grief dies, and i die too. i'm sure there's a list somewhere seeing as rakdos scam was the best deck in modern, but i haven't made it work yet for timeless (though being bad at deckbuilding and never having played timeless before might have something to do with it)
Does Duelist of the Mind do anything for this deck?
It's kind of wild how swingy Invert Polarity is.
10:50 everytime a new set comes out graveyard strats reenter the meta, because people cut the random graveyard hate for new stuff, because they haven't seen any graveyard decks in a bit anyway, but those who know are ready and dust off their old decks to remind people why you need graveyard hate.
You can do what to Tamiyo to get a spell back 👀
Seth, do you think this can work in Modern, where we don’t have brainstorm?
Some people are trying it with chart a course, but it’s definitely harder to do, especially at instant speed.
Did the first opponent copy the decklist from somewhere and not know how their deck works ??
They run sneaky snacker + Cephalid Coliseum for a reason ....
All this time all they had to do was crack a coliseum get the snackers and the amalgams back.
They can even do this end of your turn ...
I’m surprised anyone else knows The Flaming Lips. Seems like they were mostly popular in Oklahoma.
Boseiju who shelters all + Toil//trouble in the sideboard I guess (best I got)
39 minutes Seth should have used his 2 mana from mana drain for the clue.
Should have added emurcule in the deck and called it imprisoned in the moon lol
t1 tamiyo t2 winged words is enough to flip tamiyo can be done in modern
havent they learned that using leyline of the guildpact is fantastic way to get domain turn 1?
Did that earlier today in limited.
not me deliberately ulting tamiyo with a 250 card deck knowing my arena opponent can't resist casting orcish bowmasters into that juicy target and laughing while their client times out trying to order all of the triggered abilities muahahaha
Will seth finally realize why you shouldn't salty scoop
Could this also be turbo fog? 😅
