I think G3s we can mulligan to a hand with protection. The math is pretty good if the Necro boys math was correct

[@notabene131]

Thanks for the video! I'd agree that these Necrodom storm decks seem overhyped. Such high variance, hard to imagine taking it to a high stakes event. Not obvious it's better than Oops All Spells, which at least wins deterministically if it does the thing.
Simulators really seem to be over-optimistic - "with protection" doesn't protect you against a T1 Grief or T1 Vexing Bauble, for example.

[@MartinNielsen_nevilshute]

Hard agree. Especially your last point is completely missing from the discussion

[@ecobaronenMTG]

Hey, loved the video. I noticed in the first game that you keep too many cards with the Awakening. That could help the failrate a bit at least. I'm not a believer in the deck fwiw. Keep grinding!

[@MartinNielsen_nevilshute]

Thanks for the comment! Hmm yeah that’s something I’ve not been focusing too much on. Good point. If I get the urge to set fire to play points again I will be more cognizant of that 😅

[@ecobaronenMTG]

Yeah, it's not relevant learning for me either, but I just noticed straight away that you kept irrelevant rituals over digging harder for the 1U spell. It's fine to be an old man and keep the Pact, but the rituals are incredibly irrelevant because you are guaranteed to hit more mana, but not the 3-of

This is about how all my leagues with this deck went! Fun experiment, but ultimately not competitive jmo

[@MartinNielsen_nevilshute]

Agree

[@HavoCentral]

its increibly competitive if you run the white chancellor and mulligan aggresively. simulators put its at 80% win rate turn 1 and 60% with protections

[@MartinNielsen_nevilshute]

Part of me wants to say that just lessens my faith in simulators. But I will, again, acknowledge that I weren’t playing optimally and who knows, maybe it’s better than I think
