[kamm]

anyone else think that this guy is going to end up on a wotc coverage team? he definitely has the voice and the ability to do commentary

[kyle]

Players: red might need a nerf, maybe ban rage? Wotc: prints steel cutter :/

[Kyle_Apgar]

UR Cutter is very good in standard and even when you build a hate deck for it they still seem capable of rebuilding with stock up in particular with cutter. Probably my pick for top standard deck. This set is by far the most influential sets to drop in awhile.

[YaBoiBigSmoke]

Little nitpick, but the narset deck does technically have a combo with Jeskai ascendancy, emry and the moxen, but it's not really that important. Thanks for the wrap-up though, really loving the channel! ❤

[Magic_Mike_B]

Great rundown, hope you make a video on the rakdos reanimator deck, it’s very fun to play and can do well

[damienbotts]

Currently main decking 4 copies of lockdown I feel it’s correct lol

[Glonk_Respecter]

Great video! I’ve been playing your oculus deck, but I subbed the sirens for makos and I’ve been having some success with it on the ladder.

[andrewbader]

voice of victory also makes red token pretty good with ajani

[thomassankara]

Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide follows the lives of the titular character Ned Bigby, and his two best friends Jennifer "Moze" Mosely, and Simon "Cookie" Nelson-Cook, as they navigate their middle school years.

[Dannymiles]

I have been messing around with Draconologist. It’s pretty much 2 mana 1/3 draw a card you want. 😊

[kiraangle]

cant imagine why the hasted trampling prowess threat thats hard to interact with and generates advantage was the winningest card from the set. truly a wonder

[henhousetv]

Been trying to brew up something with songcrafter mage and cori, as you can harmonize anything from GY and it'll be your second spell

[dylwned]

The fact that silumgar’s scorn wasn’t in pioneer masters is a crime

[marcgomes]

Bout to switch my lightning bolts for abrades so i can win the mono red mirror 😂

[Quicknick]

Cori go Love the spice and glad to see the formats changing wow

[damianvc]

I tried the Reanimator deck, pretty cool sort of anti meta stuff
Record was 5-1 I think, weirdly enough the only loss against Izzet Prowess which the deck is supposed to beat, won the game 1 but I bricked hard games 2 and 3

[mrskittles]

Does anyone have a link to the standard showcase challenge winning deck? That list looks sick

[TheSakrasta]

Seems like we have entered the age of Cori. Now we are just waiting for every single best deck in every format to play 4 Coris. I guess it is time to place your bets on which format it is gonna get banned in first.

[babagallio]

I'm wondering if we shoudnt play synthetizer in boros pia

[otavioaugusto]

I paused the video and guessed Monstrous Rage
