A Study in Chaos

Lame

crazy that in the end he had to destroy her because she became crazed while being imprisoned with all the demons in the helvault, and when the eldrazi came to innistrad

Totally missed the opportunity to say "sink my teeth into"

That is an awesome bit of flavor I missed out on showcasing!

The color used in the art makes me wishful that he'll be in Grixis colors. Do you think they will go tribal or just powerful with him? I imagine he'll retain some sort of +1/+1 counter ability.

It would be cool if he protected all your vampires since the original card used to regenerate other vampires. I'd like to just see a powerful card that helps reduce some of the weaknesses in tribal vampires. I think its always going to be difficult for the baron to replace Edgar Markov as a tribal commander since eminence gets so much value for free. Instead, i feel like the Baron should help reduce the weaknesses in an Edgar Markov type deck. One of the big issues with the aggressive Edgar token spam strategy is dealing with board wipes from opponents, so if the Baron can be a powerhouse that can grant protection/utility that would be nice. The baron has a solid role to play as a finisher in vampire tribal if they give him the right ability and protection. Having cards with hexproof/indestructible is super valuable so I'd like to see the Baron move towards that sort of ability where hes extremely difficult to remove or provides protection to other vampires. I think that would be a really nice addition to the 99 with Edgar still as the commander. In order for the Baron to replace Edgar, he would need some sort of strong eminence or superior utility/recursion. I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with him. I just dont want them to give him a mediocre ability since hes been unplayable for decades and deserves an undeniably strong card. The barons old card as a high costed beater was unplayable, so they need to ensure that he does something significant instead of creating counters when attacking, that just doesn't cut it. Do you like the new art?

loved the old artwork of the bald vampire licking an artery.

I've started work on the next "study in" video, although not on Angels it does focus on another winged creature.. Angels will definitely have a video down the road so stay tuned!

Yes, the master of all vampires! What a great character and the deck sounds super sweet. So glad I can provide content you enjoy!

Thank you, glad you liked it!

@@TheLorebrarians show cards bigger to small can't read

Appreciate the suggestions, slivers are a much requested race

Thanks! Merfolk would be a very cool topic

Very nice, it'll probably be as powerful as the vampire progenitor himself

@@TheLorebrarians thank you for your awesome lore dive video. It hyped me up to use the deck even more. I've been sitting on it for months because I have no one to play with. First build so she still has some editing to do, trying to get that perfect three colors readily available, and focuses on a lot of lifelink/sacrifice/proliferate/protection spells. My first batch of cards I bought I think I grabbed too many high mana vampires. Might get to use it tomorrow night though! Can't wait. Thank you again for your awesome videos and introducing me to magic lore outside of the games and flavor texts.

Appreciate it, glad you enjoyed

Thank you so much for the suggestions, glad you are enjoying the content!

@@TheLorebrarians Some tribes would make short videos, but I wouldn't mind if you made one video about related creature types, like badgers, wolverines and bears (caniformia carnivorans), but please do as you will :3

@@TheLorebrarians Question… what is the name of the card the art of that vampire in the black and white robe and the staff/spear on the background during the last part of the ixalan vampire description?

@@KingDeadpool3883 mavren fein dusk apostle

I wonder what that would look like?

@@isaacleiferman709 Primal and savage, possibly very bat-like and either in Golgari or Jund colours. I could also imagine ancient dried out, skeletal husks in Abzan or Sultai.

Orzhov & Mardu are my jam tracks so much my favorite Vampire is Elanda she's so great now that the mechanics have changed for the COMMAND zone. Keep staying Pawzitive Bro

Elenda is very cool! And yes, she's a great commander now. The vamps of Ixalan are quite interesting

Thank you, it is much appreciated

Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the suggestion. I have already begun adding background music in my more recent videos. Its subtle and fairly quiet, but there

He is more a part of the weatherlight story arc than Urza's Saga. But I did miss the opportunity of including in this video. I'll have to make it up to him soon

I would love to in the future but I imagine it will be a lengthy endeavor so it'll probably be a bit further down the road. But thanks for the suggestion!

@@TheLorebrarians I'll be hiding out in the comments

Not a dumb question! No, He was a dominarian vampire that was summoned to the plane of Ulgrotha by a planeswalker during a duel

@@TheLorebrarians so no, thanks man😅

Keep an eye out, one of these creatures is about to have a video uploaded soon🤫

It was how I grew up saying it, but many have informed me on the correct pronunciation
