    Having watched your channel since SOI standard you have DEFINITELY been doing some of your best work ever imo Dev. This spoiler season has been incredible and this and the sleepers vid were easily the best ones ever in my opinion. I laughed and lot and was extremely engaged beginning to end!

      @jonathanmarth6426 Před 10 měsíci +1

      Sadly lacks tribal synergy with Azorius Soldiers and White Humans, which are the only decks in Standard and Pioneer respectively that run Brutal Cathar.
      Though I imagine, some Azorius Control decks might want to run it. Or possibly some sort of Knight Tribal, since we had tribal support in MotM.

    Lord Skitter's Blessing seems interesting for my Braids deck. I don't have a lot of Auras to enable it (just the back half of Lantern Bearer), but it's nice that the Blessing sticks around to reduce the cost on my Geistlight Snares before eventually getting sacced to a Braids trigger.

    Having an ossification on field and then just copying the shit out of it and exiling all your opponent’s creatures and planeswalkers when they don’t see it coming is really fun!

  • @vulcanh254

    Surprisingly there's not much I disagree with. Only the order of the cards I guess.
    Charming Scoundrel, I'm definitely not that high on. I wouldn't have it in my top 10 tbh. It's versatile and a fine creature but I just find it a tad boring. :) I mean it's just rummage, willy goblin or Feldon boredom. 😅 All ok-ish modes but nothing exciting imo.
    I am a bit surprised you didn't include Shrouded Shepherd. We know how incredibly strong and format warping Goblin Chainwhirler was, and this is easier to splash. And if they don't play creatures then you can just run it out on turn 2 and pump your 1 drop to deal 4 damage.

    • @fartface8918
      @fartface8918 Před 10 měsíci

      A big part of Chainwhirlers strength came from the fact it was a first striking 3 attack body in a deck that played burn, shepherd doesn't seem bad but it's design inherently isnt as explosive or pushed, the advantage in combat goes away and the -1/-1 has to get skipped in order for the buff to hit early and be at its most relevant I think the chainwhirler comparison just doesn't hold up power level wise

    The thing I like about Werefox bodygaurd is, besides being a removal spell at instant speed , is you can also use it to dodge board wipes or just standard removal spell. By being the target you exile the creature dodges most removal and if it was a board wipe then comes back immediately

    Aside from that there’s nothing that looks super annoying to play against (except maybe sweeper and the reanimate everything card lol) which is a relief.
    But lots of decent/good cards that will be fun build-arounds for tier 2-3 decks and yeah just lots of good but not OP cards.
