The attempt at Corrupt self-losing from the opponent was funny even if it didn't work lol
I think it not working makes it funnier if anything
Regarding the Rotpriest math: It got quite a bit better with March of the Machine since Invasion of Ikoria essentially added another 4 Rotpriests and Ivys.
Its still a really bad deck
....yeah. I abandoned the Deck back in April. But....yeah, *Ikoria* seems good.
Unfortunately that's the card that won. No guarantee that he even played that build.
@@BobardeZanzibar You can literally see them playing back to back Invasion of Ikoria...
@@neros_sorenMust have missed it. More listening than watching.
This really felt like boots to the ground Magic, it was nice
This might be the most coherent meme or dream deck ever.
I think the sunfall actually kind of works here. Even without the Nahiris Resolve to reset it the for mirroring, you still get 1 large creature that holds holds the trample and double strike well.
1:50 "Barbed Battlefix, Hexgold Harbid" Oh Seth, never change 😂
The only 'meme' part of this deck was the mana base IMO and that I'll excuse saying it's fairly budget. The main deck's game plan was solid and the sideboard covers what I think the main issues would be well.
Facts
I'm always proud of it when I make a deck that is similar to what gets shown on the channel!
I made a similar deck with for mirrioden, nahiri, and resolve!
Ohh, what else is in your list that this one is missing? I'd love to see it. I had a blast playing this deck.
I was trying something similar with nahiri compleated PW and Mondrak. IDK maybe too much xD
@@MTGGoldfishWell one version was very similar to this one but I had etali.
But my jank version was something like
4x witty roastmaster
4x lunarch veteran,
3x fallaji vanguard
3x speakeasy server
2x might/meek stone
3x portal to pherexia
4x circuit mender
4x spirited companion
3x inspiring overseer
2x elesh norn
4x etali
Spirited companion, speakeasy server, and circuit mender remove the issue of losing life.
Mender, companion, and overseer give incredible amounts of card draw to play cards like Fallaji Vanguard and speakeasy server and let us endgame with portal, etali, and Norn. After all, with extra life comes to tike needed to stall to play these normally bad 4-5 mana drops. And when norn doubles thrm?
Lastly witty roastmaster is an easy win for obvious reasons, especially with norn. Doing 2-6 damage on average or 12-30 wasn't uncommon.
Speakeasy server ended up being a massive mvp, which suprised me because I just tossed it in to fill space.
I did want to use devilish Valet but with the arena economy being bad I had no wild cards.
My sideboard was all draw/discards and white reanimation to turn the deck into a long term value engine
4x Eternal Wanderer
4x Repair and Recharge
1x invoke justice
4x Mishras command
3x Thrill of Possibility
made something like this too but with Flamespeaker, Nahiri Compleated, and sideboarding Plated Onslaight
@@sergioaugusto166 us jank players gotta stick together on arena lol
37:55 is a slightly early scoop. I know you get a lot of flack over those, but Sheoldred is going to lose you your blocker, and then you're going to get hit for 7. The graveyard glutton will hit you for two(?) putting you to one. If you draw a Sunfall, you get to sweep their board and have enough mana left over to even flip your incubate token. At that point, you'd be solidly ahead on board and going into topdeck wars.
12:30 seth could have won there by playing the nahiris resolve and giving the team +1/+0, it also gives haste so assuming he survived until the next turn, if he blinked all of that mirrodin equipment the new tokens he gets next turn would all be able to turn sideways right away
rotpriest is scary every single time. Once you get one poison counter the proliferate deck just goes over the top and never has to attack again. And even then it still has a 4/4 trample for 3 and the rotpriest. I don't hate it but it makes me feel like there should be some way to interact with poison that isn't as bad as melira but isn't as good as melira.
One of the biggest issues with MTG design is these "fake" resources, i.e. the ones you can't interact with. Poison, energy, etc
As someone who used to have a casual RW Living Weapon deck... I'm not surprised. Equipment that's also creatures + payoffs is a surprisingly strong core for a deck, especially since most decks aren't really set up to mass-answer artifacts.
I've been liking Nahiri's Resolve more and more. I run it in Nahiri EDH, and there are some busted synergies with it and stuff like Hammer of Nazhan and Sigarda's Aid, along with all the For Mirroden and Living Equipment cards. Sigarda's Aid is particularly funny with Nahiri herself, since not only do you get free equipment, you can play it at instant speed, too.
This deck is really cool. Looks like the deck that equipment was looking for.
This is a new level of pronunciation from Seth. Hal-berd has become hullbird and hulabrid.
I didn't expect this video to teach me that Seth doesn't know much about medieval warfare
Working on a deck revolving around the amass orcs in blue black with Duplimancy and copying the orc trebuchet to have a swarm of flying boulders to pummel the oppenent.
That sounds sweet!
@@MTGGoldfish mayhaps a future meme or dream😂
25:48 none of the tokens can block so samurai is a free attack
Oh yeah, I can't wait to see how the jank plays out. Hopefully it's a dream!
It's way more fun (and more competitive) than I thought it would be!
I've been playing Mirrodin equipment with Nahiri, and I kept thinking because no decklists online have Nahiri that I was doing something wrong, but this makes me feel better
This reminds me of one of the brews I made for RW pauper equipment (used boros synth as a base) and why ancestral blade was strong in it. The ability to dump mana into just anything and make it a threat when you are able to keep one creature on the field is very relevant. The individual equipment aren't good but the fact it costs mana and gives things to do almost lends it some natural midrange.
Of course here the boardwipes are much better but here you have more token making equipment that are just good and nahiris resolve to blink them
And nahiri.
I downloaded arena for the first time since eldraine and used all my stockpiled rare and mythic wildcards for this deck. It paid of massively as I have so far gotten from unranked/bronze 4 all the way up to plat 4 in the span of about 2-3 days playing for a couple of hours each night. Love it 10/10 would recommend
Heeeey! This was the first deck I made coming back from a much needed break from MtG. Super fun.
You just keep coming up with so many better deck then me my weapon hands is so bad
Great deck! I'm gonna try something similar only in Naya so I can pick up the new Danitha.
This deck is the literal dream! Ive been wanting to play equipment in standard
Was looking for a deck besides that mono green you showed off to run (aside from my own jank for dailies) and I think this meme looks fun enough to give a try
This equipment deck is extremely close to the equipment challenge deck from Wednesday's event on Arena. It used a couple of historic cards instead of Nahiri's resolve and sunfall, but otherwise it's basically a carbon copy,.
Nice deck. Looks like fun to play it and is a budged one without the sideboard cards :)
I wonder if some adjacent build would work in Pioneer. I finally want a at least decent Boros deck that's not just "I hope I high-roll".
This deck looks so good with nahiri resolve❤❤
I like this deck with 2 urbrasks forge . Still working on it. I love it . Main rule . If you don't have two different color mana mulligan most of the time.
I wonder if some of these cards could make Hammer Time more competitive ?
This looks like a really fun build! 😅
Guilded Pinions could be interesting as a ramp card.
Nahiri's historic deck is FUCKING NASTY. Looking forward to this as some meta deck tech because everything is so stale right now. Can't wait to try this when I get home today.
Nahiris resolve is so fun!!
I just finished a commander deck that is basically this. With all of the for mirrodin, living weapon and equipment creatures as my creature base 30+ equipments that can be cast for free with Nahiri's ability.a
This deck is relentless!
i still have to craft nahri resolve after i get materials. its going off without it at times but at times im struggling for lands and pain land is a bit much in the practice games. but most games is over before nahris resolve even makes it out. i added Kemba, Kha Enduring to snatch up bladehold war-whip when not equipped with starting creature till i can craft nahri
The lack of title screen caught me so off guard
Yeah, Meme or Dream? usually goes right into Arena without the deck tech.
Ah, makes sense. Has been a while since the last Meme or Dream lol
Sweet deck!
Any way to tutor for Nahiri's Resolve? Seems like you were always looking for it.
Watching Seth not attack with a vigilance dork when the opponent has a board full of guys who can't block hurts.
I think instead of the taplands you should run the Mirrex, that way you get better(temporary) fixing, but you also get the repeatable token creation for situations where you're top decking with a bunch of equipment on board
Nahiri one of my favorite characters in a deck?!? It’s playable and does good?!? Yes please!!!
Me yelling VIGILANCE at the screen. 🙃
Nahiri's Resolve in a Mishra Prototype and Unearth deck
With Slagstone Refinery
I played against this deck today. Surprisingly effective. Also the sunfall idea works well when you have an atraxa or something else massive in front of you, then just remove everything to make a 7/7 or 8/8
Nahiri's Resolve with Thousand Moons Smithy is pretty strong.
Is robe of stars legal in this format? That could solve some of waiting for resolve and help avoid wipes
Thank you random platinum/ mythic player. This deck is fun. Oh and thanks Seth for the video 🤣😂.
that was a pretty rough misplay vs the blue/black deck. you could've played the rabbit which would've reduced the cost so you could still play nahiri, then you'd have had the rabbit to sac to the edict.
im still getting back into magic and standard all together let alone the new rotation rules. Is the LOTR part of the rotation or are the cards not good enough to put in this deck
Oddly the Lord of the Rings set isn't legal in Standard at all, but you can play it in Historic or Alchemy on Arena.
@@MTGGoldfish wow that’s actually really unfortunate.
LotR is a straight to modern set so not standard legal. Think modern masters with a different name unfortunately.
27:30 could have won already by attacking with the 2/2 vigilance at earlyer turns
This deck feels like it has legs, all the first strike / double strike plus damage spells helped me take down a 5 color deck. First game they played 2 etalis and hit an attraxa off one, managed to avoid them gaining any life with first strike. 2nd game they farewelled but everything was in exile, I got lucky and top decked a rabbit battery to haste up a creature for the win.
25:40 and beyond you coulda attacked with the samurai, mites cant block and it has vigilance
In BO1 the rotpriest deck is extremely good. My buddy started arena with ONE, built rotpriest and xlimbed the ladder to Platinum in a couple of weeks with it
Also it was t2 rotpriest. You never t1 because you cant protect it
Maybe get a mondrak in there for some more value?
When you Sunfall'd against Rotpriest, why didn't you free equip your Rabbit Battery to your Astor? You could have kept one more creature on board
As always great video. However, unless you live in a parallel universe to me, why weren't your games 4 Atraxa ramp then 1 other deck on repeat? Could you do a series (not a stream) doing real time 'these are the decks we play against' ... that might help some of us work out how to play our jank against the meta.
So, I emplore y’all to this deck for yourself! As I don’t even have all the cards in Arena that is Seth’s exact list, I filled it with more reconfigure cards, and the lack of sunfalls is definitely something you need to spend some rare wild cards on as it’s absence makes it an uphill battle, but I took on esper control after literally my win was the 4th time I booted up the deck.
#DreamConfirmed
I like this deck - it really feels like something one person has been tinkering with and optimising for a good bit of time. Like Hexgold Hoverwings feels like an obvious inclusion - why isn't that in the deck? Because 4 mana is a bit too expensive and the anthem and evasion are unnecessary - it's obvious playing with the deck that there's no time you'd rather have it than another card in hand. Why is Wind Scarred Crag in the mana base? It might be just budget, but it also might be that lands in Standard are legitimately just really bad right now, and the point of life and fixing are relevant enough over an untapped basic or another Mirrex - something that becomes clear in your tenth game with the other option when the lack of persistent fixing is an issue. It feels like my own pet deck (mono green aggro in Pioneer - playing a turn two Steel Leaf Champion is just fun!) and that's a good thing to see.
Why is my deck view different? How do I get this view?
There's a toggle on the top right that lets you switch views.
Any thoughts on re-doing this for Best of 1? Clearly ditch the life-gain lands because you need to cast that rabbit battery when you need it.
Would you prefer best of one?
@@MTGGoldfish Yeah I really only do best of one these days. This deck would be so good for it because this just isn't in the meta right now.
I didn't change anything for best of 1. Cleared from platinum 4 to platinum 1 in best of 1.
any thoughts on this for BO1?
Looks really fun, but being on dad time makes bo3 difficult :/
I've been running it in BO1 and it's not top tier, but it's definitely fun. I float around a 50% winrate with it
Why is Seth allergic to reconfiguring rabbit battery!?!
Coo coo choo.
This is the upgraded startee deck lol
Samurai have Vigilance...
Do you think this deck would still be good without the bans?
This was recorded after the bannings, so yeah, it should be the same as in the video.
Invoke despair wreaks resolve tho. It could use fable tho but if there weren't bans it'd be a lot rougher I think.
I personally think that the version of simic rotpriest that dr ruckus put out where the main win con was getting in with flyers was better just because then the rotpriest was a secondary win con that usually distracts the opponent. Tyvar stand with ivy and a storm chaser drake or ledger shredder can sneakily get in for 10+ damage pretty easily
16:10 Seth, you had a trampling equipment on the hand, and a 4/4 double striker on the field, that's winning by itself. Also, the blue march is commonly used on rotpriest too, as it can target multiples. By the way, why not emperor? The planeswalker ability does not proc rotpriest and could take it whenever it tries to toxic, also first strike.
PD: Next game and Barrage wasted, could have killed Ivy prior Safekeeping, killing and not gaining life
Rare saltwater goldfish.
It's definitely a dream
Milky Mommy Nahiri
TWITCH?
Poison just as annoying as infect lol
Is this the first dream for the series?
I think there have been a couple others, but they are rare.
I would love to see a Balrog deck next. The Durin's Bane one looks sick. You could probably pair it with Torgaar, Famine Incarnate for more consistency. Viscera Seer, Kuldotha Rebirth/Gleeful Demolition, and some 0-drop artifacts, and you could probably get either one down as early as turn 2, consistently on turn 3.
Would love to see this. Im sure it anyone can make it work, you guys can.
The problem is Awaken the Blood Avatar exists and is pretty much better in most cases.
I say more dream than meme. Wow!
Just update the mana base and it rules.
Hexgold what?
Hardbed or later he calls it a holebird
As someone who is a mega Nahiri player, to the point she's my avatar, I gotta say, this truly strikes the right cord for me! I don't usually play standard, but I'm sold!!! Love, love, loooove this!
Here's how Rotpriest works. If you are versing it, it's the most consistent deck in Magic. If you're playing it, somehow the Rotpriest fled from your deck.
Clearly the next step of the plan is all the for mirrodin! Cards WITH elesh norn instead of sunfall here and sure it makes the deck worse but when has panharmonicon ever not done that
Get a mondrak involved why not
Not an actual criticism or anything, but it is very funny on Meme or Dream of all series to be complaining about decks that aren't very good but get nut draws that do amazing things.
deck needs 4 resolve LOL
Full sideboard? This deck is broken
I won my local store championship with a rot priest deck, beating out 2 atraxa etali decks to win the borderless Thialia and Giterog card. Don't check my spelling, Im new to magic and idgaf if I spelled stuff wrong lol
You scoop too early. You do know you have sunfalls in your deck, right?
literally nobody knows you better as SaffronOlive, my ex-gf of 3+ years only knew you as seth during and after our relationship as an example. just introduce youtself as 1 name and commit to it fully
Seth it annoys me when you complain about the rotpriest deck having one of the cards, probably a 4 of, that you just didn't bother playing around. I do not see how your opponent wins if you just stick to the board and keep bodies up, but you wanted to not play around anything and just get blown out.
Ha, yeah, that's fair. I guess playing around it is probably better than complaining ;)
yet more proof that invoke despair was bad for standard
The Rotpriest deck hasn't even been around that long and it's one of the most boring and lamest decks to face. So unoriginal...
Standard? 🤢
There's no such thing as a "shame" concession. Get over yourself.
