@sams7068 3 года назад

@@jeffcgh Is it though? He was scrying every turn and extra draws with jace, played multiple champion of wits, and played the entire game to dig for the card. It's definitely lucky but it's not insane luck, that's how drawing and digging works

@jeffcgh 3 года назад

@@sams7068 I just counted. He dug 11 times, including scry, and the game lasted 8 turns. There are 3 languish in the deck, so the odds are about equal that he will draw one. Simply the fact that the very last card he drew was a languish is what makes it cool. That was his last and only chance to draw it.

Damn that Wurm play - just ruined his plan after he did a big swing turn

@nikkiwilliams9808 4 года назад

That was... Amazing to watch. Massacre wurm is such a damn good counter to so much of the meta. Makes me almost sad that field of the dead got banned. I enjoyed oneshotting my opponents after a huge swing turn :D

@justins7711 4 года назад

That languish top deck against elves was amazing! I was on the edge of my seat there. Definitely a top 5 play of the week there.

@calvincraven6292 4 года назад

Yeah, it was close, I think the elves missed lethal twice. Once when they didn't activate the first sheppard and 2nd when they played the perfect over attacking with 2 lanowars.

Well, it is called "Massacre" Wurm for a reason, lol

@charlieday7731 4 года назад

Ohhhh man that Languish against the Elf pile was a thing of beauty.

@LegendaryO34 4 года назад

At 25:33 Yes, the opponent missed lethal here. If they attacked with their mana dorks instead of tapping them, LVD would have taken minimum 25 dmg instead of 12.

@sams7068 3 года назад

And then they give him the BM "Nice!" when the entire game he's been digging with jace scry/draw and multiple champions for his 4 outs (3 languish/1 massacre worm).

Interesting build. I'm playing a Dimir Mid in Bo3. The synergy between The Scarab God and Liliana, Death's Majesty is really good. Back in Amonkhet - Ixalan standard season, I wasn't able to play that deck. Now I can and I love it.

Its WOTC's way of telling us they forgot a texture. It's the same "issue" we've had with Tibalt since he came out in WAR. His devils have always been that way.

@Skytho 4 года назад

Ok LegenVD, I've been following you for a while and your content is always fantastic! I have one question about gameplay though. I have learned so much through your videos but one thing I still seem to have a completely different instinctual reaction to are your decisions regarding when to keep lands in hand and how many. You keep talking about wanting to hit your land drops and I get that but I think I am personally much more aggressive (greedy ...) about discarding lands over spells. It depends on the deck of course, but for instance if I have 4 lands in play and a cathartic reunion, i will mostly be fine discarding all additional lands because I'll have 4 draws to hit land 5. Do you have any rule of thumb about when to keep/discard your lands vs spells?

@LegenVD 4 года назад

It depends on the deck of course. Here I'm happy going all the way to 8 mana for double Scarab God activations.

@robertocerrone273 4 года назад

I guess there is no real rule of thumb, because it is really up to the deck. I am usually playing as you do, being "greedy" on spells and discarding lands while I am moving through the mid-late game. As you can read from LVD, the main aim here is to reach 8-lands to activate two times scarab God so basically it unravel LVD strategy with this deck.

@thenextchicken 4 года назад

Currently at the deck tech. I am looking forward to seeing how this performs. I have a similar version with some ideas in common (Barrin, Languish as my sweeper of choice) but the results were very disappointing. I am really intrigued by your deck building skills.

@MidgarMerc 4 года назад

You probably should have kept the tales end vs elves since you can counter either the Shepard's or craterhoofs abilities

@LegenVD 4 года назад

In hindsight maybe, although it's only a temporary solution to Shepherd.

wait, in match 3 when you cycled the land to draw out worm, wouldn't it have been better to have cycled on the end of their turn just in case they tried to remove it from your hand? or am I missing something

At that point I was just looking for anything I could cast, hopefully something cheap. Didn't necessarily have the luxury of waiting.
