- A thrilling matchup between Mono Black and The Deck. Who will win?
Special thanks to Lukas for having such an amazing game together.
Disclaimer: using proxy decks in order to test the metagame thoroughly.
- Mono Black (original deck)
- The Deck (proxy deck)
I own the cards to build the decks, perhaps some of them in different expansions. But I don't have enough copies to build two decks at the same time.

Aw man, tap the city of brass with icy manipulator
A great match! The Deck was just too much for the mono black to handle. Great channel. Subscribing now!
Thank you so much! I'm happy you enjoyed the match :)
wow, i expected this to be an old video.
I really enjoyed watching decks back from my magic youth. I really want to make THE Deck again after watching this video
I'm glad you enjoyed it! It's never too late to play Old School and enjoy the power of The Deck in your hands again ;)
@@mtgoldschoolworld1460
I have power, I just don't have all the duals to make the deck unfortunately.
Oh, what a pity! Perhaps in the future if you plan for it :)

I enjoyed the game. The Deck showed its power for sure, and the Bolts were useful too.
Thank you!
I never asked you if you have a favorite Old School Deck? :)
@@mtgoldschoolworld1460 Hmmm... probably land destruction, which I don't really see a lot of discussion about. That's what I played a lot of back in the 90's. I haven't really played any Old School since then, but this year, I've been buying back into the Old School cards that I had sold off, so I'm itching to get some Old School games in soon if possible. For now, I'm scratching the itch by watching your videos and others. :)
It's a great feeling to play it again. I hope you can enjoy Old School games soon! :)
Has anyone ever played The Deck against a Tier 2 standard deck? Even having Power available in Old School, the level of threats and answers is so powercrept nowadays.
I don't know about The Deck but there are many decks that would destroy Tier 1 Standard decks. UW Permission may be a bit too slow and it would all depend on the draw on Swords and drawing to 4 mana for Moat/Wrath/The Abyss, etc. However, most people who play 94-ish formats now, like 99.9% content on CZcams, play it wrong and instead you get this slow, plodding format that looks weakass with people running stuff like Mishra's Factory. The original The Deck is slow but runs 4x Power Sink, which most 94 players don't even get.
GG why no Mind Twist? Also, the Hippies are really good against the Deck, I would also add 2x Greed.
Thank you!
I think the main reason why Lukas doesn't play a Mind Twist or Hypnotics is because they would be anti-synergistic with the Black Vises and the prison strategy. The cards are super strong by themselves anyway, so i get your point :)
I would also recommend the 2x Greed! That's another amazing card :)
Because the guy who built this deck picked the wrong color/s for his strat. Mono-black was not even tier 3 in 94 but, if built correctly, was a solid casual deck. This mono black is wtf.
@@Rorschachqp I assume it goes all-in into accelerating for a heavy 4 drop into nether void. Then, it also tries to deal extra-damage with Black Vises. Can you imagine post-sideboard games with 4 Gloom and 4 Nether Void? That's very hard for white, I don't think The Deck can deal with that if this monoblack variant does what it's supposed to do.
Other than early, unanswered The Abyss.
@@vedounamanicadimasochisti I know what he's trying to do. I played tournaments in 94-95 when tournament rules became somewhat standardized. Mono black was either casual (Icy, Royal, Sengir, Imp, etc.) or mono black weenie (budget tournament deck, get scrubbed out 2nd round). Only when Hymn To Tourach was printed in FE did mono black become seriously dangerous. Discard is the best strat for black, not Nether Void.
Unfortunately no MonoB deck in the mid-range could ever hope to fight an endless stream of removal and counter magic from Weissman. I am impressed from the MonoB player trying his best but it was just not going to happen. it would be a miracle for that deck to beat Weissman. Sadly.
The matchup is veryy tricky to play! One small mistake and MonoB takes over :)
Deck list?
Deck gonna deck
this is an epic battle... in the world .. the most yopowdow
Thank you! It was so thrilling to play that game :)
Just a complete black bordered The Deck.
15:30 Why did the abyss get destroyed due to the nether void? 15:50 Why did casting an abyss destroy the nether void?
It is due to the "Enchant World" rule. There can only be one Enchant World in play at any time. So if there is any existing one when you cast a second, the earlier gets destroyed. The Abyss and Nether Void are both Enchant Worlds. So every time one it's played, it replaces the previous one, regardless of the player who owns it
Playing 94…without 94 rules.
guys guys,,, you are making me cry right now.... i have had to sell 3 major collections in my life to pay for bad times... beyond the money, the game is so diluted now and there is no art in the cards. this brings me back so hardcore... i will be watching all content that is magic when it was a war, not decided in 1-2 turns
This is also the kind of games we love. We usually play control or midrange and every decision feels so important. Games that are decided in the first two turns feel not so exciting ☺️
There are plenty of formats where the games don't end in 1-2 turns. I started playing magic since 1996 and still enjoy it to this day and I play Modern where games can end between turns 2-3. Trashing the game for its evolution just makes you look salty
the sleeves are as old as the cards
That's true in most cases. Having new sleeves for all decks constantly would mean a lot of money and for now I would prefer to save that money to buy some other Old School card in the near future :)
¿Me lo parece a mi o juegan muy mal? Se olvidan de enderezar, agrega mana mucho antes... No me entero de mucho...
You definitely need a lot of work on playing The Deck. You disenchanted a black vise you were already under. You sideboarded in red blasts or are playing them main deck. You are playing lightning bolt? You don't shuffle your hand after drawing with the Tome, giving away that you drew the Mishra's. You attacked with the Mishra's without a lock, and no counterspell in hand...
So much wrong...
