Land destruction actually AMAZING! | Standard Mythic MTG Arena 

Back in the days I used to hate land destruction with stone rain, plow under etc. When I stopped playing Magic for a while and came back to MTG Arena I was quite happy finding out that this architype kinda died out. But nowadays I always enjoy seeing some unusual attempts of deck building like this :D

I will say you make real good decks, but this one is by far my favorite/best deck you've cooked imo! I love this especially in this meta, and i will be net decking lol! Cheers bro!

@Swayze, you should consider adding The Stone Brain into this since you can choose any card name, eliminating threats or lands as needed. Not to mention copying its ability lets you choose a different card so you could get rid of up to 8 lands for 4 mana w/ vantress visions. Just a suggestion. :D

what is better than land destruction? Land destruction that also ramps you.

Thank God the Forge is a cast effect, immagine the sheer degeneracy you could have achieved with a normal ETB.

Hey Swayze, love the vids. I think this deck needs more green and red sources since you have 2 double pip 3 mana plays(18 sources for a 24 land deck). I have been having the same issue trying to make a grixis control deck using brotherhoods end and three steps ahead + black for deadly cover up. I end up having to run tons of tap lands to make it work or switch to confounding riddle instead of 3 steps. Still, love the deck concept and always enjoy your vids!

The last game🤤🤤 u will be surprised if the opponent used a lightning bolt

19:15 you can double the eff of brotherhood ends

Keep doing more land destructions decks, those are your most fun decks. ALthough, not sure about the green overlord who needs 2 green to ramp up, your 2 red are more need it and having blue is also a priority. It works great with the return spell and beans. But not sure if there is another better remplacement who can not put so much pressure on the lands.

12:10 was very funny

is that you rapping at the outro? nice bro!

Hi! I love your deck brews. I tried looking you up on twitch, but I don't know your handle. I have a favor to ask. I got stuck with a play set of fomori vault. Have to idea how to use them. Any ideas? Could you do a deck on them? You do a lot of work with big score, so I thought you'd be the one to ask. Thanks!

Last 2 games were only won because of direct and bizarre opponent blunders. On the second to last game, why in the world did that guy flash in his 2nd flanker before Swayze's end step? And why in the blue hells did the last opponent not clearly and obviously sac the nightmare before his lands were destroyed, despite showing that he was on the mill path several turns in? Just odd.

karma is going to have a word with you

Last game you could "this town..." for lethal one turn sooner :p

And i had a streamer tell me land destruction isn't a thing in standard... goes to show why they cant escape plat hell.

Deck 7 Plains (LCI) 392 4 Sheltered by Ghosts (DSK) 30 4 Toadstool Admirer (WOE) 192 3 Forest (M20) 280 4 Tomakul Honor Guard (BRO) 195 4 Optimistic Scavenger (DSK) 21 3 Calix, Guided by Fate (MAT) 26 4 Shardmage's Rescue (DSK) 29 3 Royal Treatment (WOE) 183 3 Feather of Flight (BLB) 13 4 Ethereal Armor (DSK) 7 3 Archon of the Wild Rose (WOE) 1 3 Audacity (BRO) 169 3 Hushwood Verge (DSK) 261 4 Brushland (BRO) 259 4 Razorverge Thicket (ONE) 257 we been playing sheltered by ghosts in the wrong decks....its not boros or mono white or even azorius where the card belongs..... and youll be extremely surprised on which creature 😅.... its selesnya and the newest threat to enter the meta is a 2 mana 3/1 ward 2 common 😂... oh and its little brother 1 mana 1/1 ward 2.... tomakul honor gaurd and toadstool admirer both have ward 2 and with sheltered by ghosts on them they basically have ward 4 if youre able to land turn 1 toadstool admirer turn 2 sheltered by ghosts then turn 3 calix suddenly youre removing whatever they play each turn while gaining life and adding ward 2 each time you copy sheltered by ghosts.... and if the game goes too long you drop archon of the rose and now your flying ward 10 lifelink trample voltron piece just mops the floor with em.... obviously boardwipes can mess things up but thats only if your opponent lives to turn 4 or 5.... deck is fire especially in bo1 where evey other deck is mono red

very cool idea, still i think alot of cards are useless, ovika in primis look useless, the whole red color feels forced, given you only need one red source for the forge at 5 mana with overlord ramping and with fabled passage for fixing since the removal are way subpar. i'd add white or black instead and rely on mmy fixers for the single red i need for forge. and i would put alot more bouncers

Lol holy shit that's diabolical

FIRST, FOR THE MOB!

You love to see It

Who up gathering their magic

Cute, but mono red only needs one or two lands to kill you.

Ill timed vs firestorm?

Land destruction is pure evil….. 😅

Come on last guy. You sat through all that just to scoop? SHAME!

this deck is fun but very janky, went for 98% mythic to 91% mythic with it

I played against a deck similar to this not to long ago. Its hateful and you're a hateful man lol. Land destruction is the worst. After the second land gets taken out and I realize what is happening I scoop. Aint got time for that nonsense.

A possible line to keep yourself alive against the Doomsday Excruciator was to copy brotherhood's end with virtue.

Give me your wildcards

Can you copy it?

Why would you put this in people's heads to go play? *sigh* *builds the deck*

LD!!!!!!

As someone new to MTG arena, what an annoying deck. This shouldn’t even be possible. Makes me think this is a pointless game.

I think land destruction and mill are just the absolute worst, why build your gameplay around not letting the other person play, that's how you get punched in the face, bit too chronically online
