This one felt like an old-fashioned Against the Odds. I loved that this decks main win condition is the opponents failing a reading comprehension check

[NeoSamurai]

2:12 “As long as our opponent can’t wrath our board” is a hell of a condition in the Sunfall meta.

[Jp-glgi]

Haven’t seen the video but you beat the best deck in the format

[grubgobbler]

That last opponent desperately reading the cards after it was too late was hilarious!

Hey Seth, you should try this deck again, but with vehicles! When you have Lost in the Maze out, instead of trying to freeze your own angel with a tap enchantment like Weakstone Subjugation, you could just crew with the Angel to give it immediate hexproof. This lets you tap out for the angel and have no fear of direct removal.

[rkbmcb]

Fully agree with you, Seth. Weird Al is an incredible artist.

[boobox]

You should put Jace in the deck. It can be an alternate target for people to attack and give you card draw and help with your mill strat.

Another episode of "Magic Arena Players can't read" for the books

Dear Seth: Run some cheap phasing effects like Slip Out the Back or March of Swirling Mists to protect angel from the wraths ❤

[pneuma]

The flavor of this deck is pretty hilarious. Sad angel hides in the hedge maze.

[EclipseWhites]

Was not expecting Seth to sing Kid Cudi at 6:52

[MaxMckayful]

Seth a couple weeks ago: "Standard has SO MANY wraths right now that I built an only wrath deck!"
Seth today: "The only weakness of this combo is a wrath"
Hmmmm....

[DomonCashewNuts]

It's a boros player in standard right now of course they can't read all they know is to press spacebar :p

[Bigdk]

15:58 I don’t know why but I love hearing Seth try to give advise to his opponent.

[suddenlyboop]

This was really funny to see how many players take the "big cards go smash" approach to magic. I am pretty sure that combat decks have no way to get around your combo pieces. Very funny, well done!

[laytonjr]

Thassa's oracle+Demonic Consultation: look what they need to do to mimic a fraction of our power

[zaksaturday]

One of the interesting interactions with angel and your landbase is you could unnecessarily tap an underground river for colored mana to mill 2, like at the end of your second game (if you hadn't drawn that cycler).

[midn]

This might be the worst deck ever played on against the odds. It's a 4 card combo to not win the game, in standard where your card draw is total ass. I love it.

[Onirikas]

Seth, regarding the one mana mana dork in standard... dinos have it and they can play a 6/6 in turn two, and they dont see much play..

I always check frantically if there is a new vid, this is the first time it works
(Like when you check the fridge if something delicious magically conjured there)
