Are rats ELITE? | Standard ranked MTG Arena 

Swayze: I’m going to play this as safe as possible… Proceeds to dump his hand out into sunfall. Classic Swayze! 😂

At your second game 13:49 - 15:00 opponent could attack with angel gain life before sunfall and also leave 2 mana open for that 10/10 along side the other creature. Anyhow awesome deck. Love to see Rats doing menace Last game was insane ! 🎉

Haha that ending, so freaking sweet!

I've been sharing this quote on every rat deck I've seen so far because it's very fitting. It's from one of my favorite horror movies of all time. _"A red mist spread over the lawn, coming on like a flame of fire! And then he parted it, and I could see that there were thousands of rats, with their eyes blazing red, like his, only smaller. Then he held up his hand, and they all stopped, and I thought he seemed to be saying: 'Rats! Rats! Rats! Thousands! Millions of them! All red blood! All these will I give you! If you will obey me!'"_ _-Dracula, 1931_

Rats are my favorite tribe in this set since they’re so slept on. Plus Vren goes right into my favorite deck, Dimir 💙🖤

was waiting until the end of the video to say go for the throat would be huge for the list and you hit the nail on the head. also rotcaller drains for rats squirrels bats and lizards

Roaming throne has been waiting patiently for Bloomburrow. It's so good in most of these tribal decks. I've only tried it in rats and lizards, but seems like it would do pretty good in frogs as well.

I love this deck. I lowered the curve a bit by adding Azure Beastbreaker, Nazumi Linebreaker, and Persistant Marshcallers. Vren + Gix Command is amazing. Rat king to reload hand 🎉🎉

A great early removal that’s a bit more viable right now than cut down is disfigure, it’s a -2/-2 and won’t fizzle if someone plays a combat trick. Maybe worth looking into it 😊

I've been running a Rat deck since the release and I can tell you that Azure Beastbinder and Persistent Marshstalker are great rats and should probably belong to most Rat decks. The Azure Beastbinder can neutralize pretty much anything on the battlefield and synergizes very well with Cut Down. Persistent Marshstalker is a recursive powerhouse. It's cheap and can go very hard.

Last game was so fantastic. Even with the awful topdecking, still clutched it! Also, oppo could have just blocked with Shelly and reanimated it with Virtue on their upkeep. Was the right play for them regardless, but sometimes oppo makes mistakes.

12:46 Slam the two Rotcallers and the Butcher choosing menace then swing away Meryl.

Props to that guy that was trying 5 color after all the good lands rotated

Insane last game woooow

Yo Swayze, great work on your channel man! It could be just me, but it sounds like your background music is recording double tracks, so it has a slight tin can echo kinda sound

Haha you crushed me the other day. Wp sir!!

First. I knew the vid was coming

Such a clutch win at the end

Rodents are nuts these days….. Doppelganged copies of Rotcaller get wild quick……. And also Honored Dreyleader squirrel…. 😅

Just to help your vids out, I'm not sure if its my audio, but your music has a odd echo, otherwise hope your channel flourishes !

Hey Swayze been following for about a year! always love the content. If i wanted to get bulk and have enough to play with friends at home, some standard and commanders, where should I look and not spend a ton. Thanks!

Im waiting to craft rares/mythics. All of these cards are neat but it’s hard to gauge what is good and what is fun at this point haha

At this point, is all of bloomburrow ELITE? It seems every type is great

I would suggest using desfigure, instead of cut down

Sick dudeee 🎉🎉🎉

Gix command might be better, but why not try season of loss

I think I just played against you on arena.

Classic shuffler. No cards in hand and you need any playable card. Too bad, you only get lands.
