Magic TV - Top 8 One-Drops 

I like that the audio is in stereo; when I wear headphones, I feel like I'm the potted plant between them.

Yeez… imagine what they would say with darcy and ragavan

need to revisit again, thank you swift spear.

If they did this list again now, Monastery Swiftspear would be on there.

1. Charging Badger

Charging Badger is best 1-drop

solid list, but surprised glistener elf didn't get an honorable mention. it's been the basis of some of the best budget aggro decks I've seen in modern and legacy and it's just very easy to abuse.

Orzhov & Gruul having a conversation. That's just weird.

Please keep the zoomed-in cards up a little longer so that people have a chance to read them.

Difficult list. There are so many op one drops.

1-8: Half of a Storm Crow... A half/one with flying 50% of the time.

title of video should really specify creatures, otherwise i do believe Aether Vial belongs on this list

Watching this video in 2018, it is funny to see Wild Nacatl on there, and Death's Shadow yet to be a thing.

And Now we have Ragavan

Hmm... what about disciple of the vault?

leave card up longer!!!!! or don't make it so small!!!!

Today DRC and monkey take up the entire top 8 lol

Obviously not the most powerful but my favorite one drop is Doomed Traveler.

"Usually the best three-drops aren't green." I would say that times have changed in that regard.

This list didn't age well.

No honorable mention for Vexing Devil?

I don't think it's that good. Almost always your opponent is gonna take the damage rather than get attacked for 4 each turn. It doesn't combo with much, most decks would just take the damage and move on, you got 1 card less in your hand. The problem is that whether your opponent can deal with damage or with creatures more easily, your opponent will always have the power of the choice and decides what your spell does so that it suits their own deck the best.

for crying out loud, stop saying about TSG stealing cards, investigation revealed he didn't steal those cards and his charges were dropped AGES AGO! you ppl really need to get recent information before you dis him!

Obviously suntail hawk

offence or no offence, CFB did accuse him of something he didn't do, and even had the police search his house. would you want to go back to them if you were him?

Modern 2022 Best One Drops: Ragavan, Dragon’s Rage Channeler, Monastery Swiftspear, Esper Sentinel, Death’s Shadow, Flamekin Harbinger LOL, Noble/Ignoble Hierarch

wheres the old top 8 onedrop video?

My top 8 one drops are not taking over formats but have that power level or power level to end games even power level to ramp, I would present a list like this... Elvish Mystic Bird of paradise Legion Loyalist Golbin Bushwacker Experiment One Boros Elite Vexing Devil Champion of parish I would like to extent on the power level's of these one drops in the right deck. Naya Humans. Champion of the parish, Boros Elite and Experiment One all have the extreme power level within the deck along side with Thalia's Luietent, Gather the Townfolk, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Helix. The power of this deck would involve the counters too so the power could be raised by running Harden scales. Mono Golbins. Legion Loyalist and golbin Bushwacker along side with another two one drops foundry Street Denzien and Golbin Guide and the Golbin Piledriver, Golbin Rabblemaster, Krenko command and Dragon Fodder. all have a power level of a mono decent deck. sideboard, Vexing Devils just for the burn abilities and even the 4/4 power and toughness if it stays around. Gruul Ramp. Birds of Paradise and Elvish mystics as they are many green one drop creatures but another ramp power i would say Llanowar Waste.

No, it isn't of course. It saw fringe play in modern and that's it. It never made it into any deck while it was in standard, nor did it ever see play in legacy/vintage. And even in modern, the only deck that plays Vexing Devil (RDW) never makes top 8 in important tournaments, and the deck is only really played for budget reasons. So... Long story short, vexing devil pretty much sucks.

When you play delver, you build your deck so that you can consistenly have a 3/2. yes. sometimes its a 1/1, but that is a rare occurrence. Heirarch is better than birds, because the green deck will typically want the exalted trigger/ aggressive body. Also, they BOTH only have two abilities. Exalted/Flying + T,: add one mana. delver WAS standard up until scars rotated. Shaman doesnt NEED standard, because its a powerhouse in MODERN Im not joking. you should try yugioh. its MUCH more your game.

You should play yugioh. its more up your alley. a 3/2 flyer for 1 is insane. a 1/1 that makes three colors is better than a 0/1 that makes five lackey is only good when other cards are bad. and Deathrite shaman is the best one drop by a country mile. it has 3 relevant abilities, and has a solid body, AND can bee played in green OR black decks. It also very successfully blocks goblin lackey.

whatever deathrite shaman better than goblin lackey?A clear cut case of johnny come lately.C'mon you guys lackey is way way more power than a deathrite shaman.Also, Delver top 8 one drop?That's erroneous.Shouldn't even be top 30. Birds of paradise and noble heirarch are about dead even in power level but I think birds have a slight edge.You are acting like the 2 extra colors of mana is nothing.Another johnny come lately.A few I suggest: goblin welder/steppe linx/gorilla shaman/orcish lumberjack

pretty sure no investigation ever revealed that he didn't steal those cards. it's more that an investigation revealed there wasn't enough evidence. that's a big difference. there is no proof that he's guilty and no proof that he isn't. which means he either did a good job or he got incredibly unlucky. i like him, but that doesn't mean he never did anything wrong in his life and also doesn't mean he's never spoken a lie. bottom line is nobody knows, but he's very suspicious

I do see your point, I still feel that it should have seen more play. If you instead played a 2/1 on turn one or something, that 2/1 might be killed in a turn or two, dealing not much more than 4 damage (but probably more than that, obviously I'm just assuming). Also, your mana is going so much farther than your opponent's. Lets say they play a Thragusk, they still get their value but you are able to deal with their 5 mana creature with your one mana creature, even if they get their 3/3.

Hey guys - I really like that you are doing top 8's again but listening through headphones this video was really disorientating. Using 'pan' is fine but usually you keep vocals toward the center (even if they are in different parts of the screen) because of the confined space the 'actors' are in. Getting some stereo width through panning is fine but try not to use hard left and hard right. I should still be able to hear a little bit of LSV through my left headphone and vice versa for Andy.

Dark ritual isn't a one drop. But not because you don't often "drop it" on turn one. But because the term "one drop" implies a permanent. So, for example, ancestral recall isn't a "one drop". If the definition of one drop included sorceries and instants, this list would be almost entirely wrong.

Pity you don't check information before you post. He didn't take anything. LSV, a colleague and apparent friend of his, without speaking to him, jumped to the conclusion he was stealing and sicked the cops on him. He was cleared of charges. He didn't lie.

That was nice but I'm sure that more ENERGY would be appreciated by all! Thank you! :)

Oh wow, no Elite Vanguard? Or even Martyr of Sands. White is known for its innumerable one-drop weenies and you only got one? Well, its a really good one, ill give ya that, but its still a bit lacking.

that's a shame, i really liked TSG because he brought a non-competitive player insight to these videos. I'm sure that Cooperfaus is great but TSG was a good commentator/presenter.

I'm surprised that vexing devil isn't on the list. One mana for either a 4/3 or 4 damage (20% of your opponent's life total), in my opinion one of the most underplayed one drops in magic.

can u stop spreading false information? it was stated in reddit that he did not steal anything and decided not to come back after the police investigated his house with a warrant.

No Goblin Welder?

Yeah, I couldn't belive it when I heard he had stolen cards from their store. What a scumbag :/ Altho, Andy does a pretty good job at hosting too :)

I don't see a G 1/1 colorless mana producer in this list, can you help me out?

"if you couldn't answer a turn 1 goblin lackey, you'd have to reconsider how you built your deck", really? You guys do know there's a big element of chance in how you shuffle and what cards you draw, right?

“...Yes, it was on purpose. We didn’t just sit down and decide that we were accidentally going over something again.” ... How does one decide to _accidentally_ do something?

dark ritual isn't a one drop. It costs one mana, but that doesn't mean you would always just "drop it" when you have one mana

They falsely accused him of stealing the cards. He was cleared of all charges. They wronged him, not the other way around.

Questionable list as to why you would put a G 1/1 colorless mana producer instead of Avacyn's pilgrim or Arbor Elf

what about Vexing devil ???

why cant you explain what the transform on delver of secrets do why do i have to google that shit up

Guys, you cant compare these cards to Vexing Devil... It is not remotely good as the top8 for sure

Nobody honorably mentioned vexing devil and if u have 4 out its pretty easy to kill ur opponent

Ya, I've seen that play as well. Varolz is a great card.

Wild Nacatl original art is cool? Uh, no.

Right now I'm using Vexing Devil with Varolz and it makes them regret their decision.

Cooperfauss is good, don't get me wrong, but he should consider slowing down a little.

If I could get this vid to play, I would like to see if vexing devil is on here.

I was just wondering if they did a top One-Drops, and there is appeared on the side of RU-vid.

Well he did something unforgivable. Still he was kinda likeable on the show.

The audio is way too stereo. It's so weird...

If you are going back to old lists, you should rank the planeswalkers again.

Go listen the Eh Team 0-2 Drop podcast "Season 2 Flips the Jeweled Bird"

Vexing Devil is the best one drop for aggro decks and burn decks BUT K

Please make "Top 8 cards to steal and sell online". I need to know.

Why do all videos related to MtG have the shittiest sound quality?

This list is about one-drop creatures. Also, Delver is in there?!

What about experiment one. It's the king of standard right now.

isn't vexing devil the best one drop creature for burn decks?

Turns out he didn't steal them and the charges were dropped.

You obviously havent been playing Magic for a very long time

Oh boy, if only they could have seen the 1 drops now.

New Magic top 8!! Huzzah!!

1 mana planeswalker has to be good

One does not simply decide to do something unintentionally

I was thinking Champion of Parish would be on the list.

just nuts how few of these cards are even relevant these days

No love for figure of destiny

Vexing devil isn't it good?

top 1 drop of any white edh is serra ascendant ;3

Lol guys, Vexing devil is nothing to these 8.....

thumbs up if mother of ruins is the best one drop

LSV, for the love of Karona, ditch the haircut =P

I don't even play magic and I like watching these

Vexing devil is garbage compared to Goblin Guide.

Ranger of eos gets em all

where is vexing devil from avacyn restored??????

Even when hes not here tsg still steals the show

I enjoyed the video and banter but it ended akwardly.

what happened to him? i know about humphrey....

Goblin guide is much better than vexing devil

Where's Champion of the Parish & Vexing Devil?

Agreed. This new guy is monotone and boring...

actually, he didn't.

Vexing devil should be on here somewhere

Where is Camel?

this was before the nightmare that is deaths shadow

Personally, I fucking love Legion Loyalist.

I wonder if this list would be different now.
