Much Abrew: Jund Assault Loam (Modern, Magic Online) 

Wait I wanna know more about the spectacular coffee

SPECTACULAR COFFEE

"Nihil Spellbomb, draw a card." *clappy dance music intensifies*

Craving Karen is now my new favorite land.

Seth says around 30 min mark in match two that all 4 copies of assault are still in and wants to hit one off a cascade- There's only 3 in the list, and with it being so crucial to winning there should probably be 4

This is so much more fun when we are hitting our swans,drawing a couple of cards

Deck needs faithless looting, you don’t mind lands in the yard and it churns through the deck

You know its good coffee if the editor didn't cut that one out

Hahaha! Green Mountain Coffee! At first I thought it was my iPad doing some weird crap. 😂 a great video as always Seth! Also greetings from the Green Mountain State of Vermont! -RowdyMagic18

Enjoyed that impromptu brew at the end, got to see the master at work live ;)

"Wren and Stix" LOL. Seth, you never cease to entertain me with your fumbling of the English language.

The most adrenalin pumping moments are when you both have cards in hand but it still turns into a top deck battle. "Oh he got me, NO! I GOT HIM!, Oh, nevermind, he got me... WAIT JUST A MINUTE NOW!!!"

You should probably also have some ayula’s influence.

In the WB smallpox match, the opp plays Kaya then ticks up Lili first. You could have, in response, bolted Kaya and prevented them from ever activating it. The downside is Lili lives, but only long enough to get Trophied instead.

7:02 scared me there

These in-video ads are getting weird.

1:07:28 when your dog needs to go outside and pee

Tell us more about the spectacular coffee, Seth

I liked the brewing at the end. The deck at the end seems super fun - please play it!

25:29 >typical burn opening Seth: Is this mono red prowess?

Me, after coming back to MTG after many years: "Why tf is this Wrenn and Six card so expensive?!" Me, after watching this video: "ohhhh..."

I lost to Assault Loam playing Modern at Zulu's last night. When I came home afterward, I saw there was a new Much Abrew on it. Hah.

I would love to see G/B Bear-Pox :D

In the first match up game two, I actually called the aria of flame when you didn’t lead on IOK lol

I've been playing around with Loam in Modern for well over a year now and my deck is currently Jund colors, but it looks completely different from this one. I think the problem with this deck was that we didn't have any real cards to set up our combo of Loam and Assault and without the combo it really is just bad Jund. In my list I play 4offs of both Faithless Looting and Stitcher's Supplier to help with setting up the combo; Looting helps find our pieces and works well in conjunction with Loam, Supplier helps us find both Loam and lands (let's not forget that we need a surplus of lands to really get crazy) and can chump to keep us alive until the combo is set up. The 4th Assault is also non-negotiable; games with one redundant card in hand are better than games where our deck doesn't work. I also have playsets of Raging Ravine for more reach and Tireless Tracker to have more payoffs for Loam (in that regard they are basically Assault 5-8 despite the fact that they do two completely different things).

I like the land discard enchantment that makes bears more

Hey Seth, here's a couple of thoughts on the mana base and a direction that could be fun to introduce into the deck. I think you're right that the deck isn't running enough cycle lands, but in specific I feel you're missing a huge opportunity in not running Canyon Slough and Sheltered Thicket (it's a shame that there isn't a Golgari double colored cycle land as well). Both lands are fetchable, they are good for fixing and have cycle. Sure, they come in tapped, but a lot of the time, I think their upsides might balance that out. Nuturing Peatland should probably also be included, just so you can sac it for card draw, if you desperately need to dig for stuff. Also, if you're going to run Tireless Tracker main deck and focus more on a Golgari build, how about perhaps adding more af few more landfall abilities, and even Scapeshift to get your lands in the graveyard and find the utility lands you need, and so you go can all in on land synergies. Valakut is of course a tried and tested option for red, but also Field of the Dead, Ob Nixilis, and maybe even the green and black Retreats as sideboard options to either drain, pump your creatures, or even gain life against more aggro'ish strategies. I know you want to throw your lands away, but this could give you a second axis to work on. I also think Elvish Reclaimer could be an interesting way to circulate your lands from your hand to play, to your graveyard, and back to your hand again with Loam. It's also a pretty solid mini-Goyf that comes down on turn one, and is a decent blocker and attacker. I don't know, just a thought.

@3:34 "budget fetch lands" 😂

Shred memory worth a try. Can tutor our 2cmc spells like wrenn, trophies and loam especially. It can exile the irritating cards in our opp GY also.

End of M1G1 where you were concerned about being too greedy, it was actually right to go for it there. You just start by cycling the Moor, make them have the Surgical then instead of giving the chance to have it next turn too. If they Surgical, you weren't going to be getting it next turn anyways.

My favorite deck of all time. What about 3x Ayula's Influence in SB to be able to make creatures instead/at the same time, you do 2dmg

47:25 That Raven's Crime cast was almost certainly a misplay -- if the opponent's card was Lava Dart, then you just enabled an out for them and can no longer guaranteed-kill them unless they mess up.

Deck seems fun, but I liked the on the fly deck building at the end. That was interesting.

Why didn't the opponent sac their mountains with lava dart w/ aria of flame :s

7:00 tel us more about this coffee

Spectacular Coffee?!?!

Wrenn and Sticks eh? I suppose you’re not wrong 0:42

You had me at Jund.

perhaps a force of vigor in the board for the blood moon matchups?

Spectacular.

6:20 ‘Graven karens’

Seems like Collector Ouphe was something that should have come in against Relic of Progenitus.dec

"Hit our swans, draw some..." oh, wait

See, I'm an old fart but I'd try and find a way to use Elder Pine of Jukai as a land draw engine. Red-Green then use ramp spells for your sac-lands to fill your graveyard and empty your deck and then your cycling lands to fetch Life from the Loam. As suggested elsewhere Faithless Looting would be good too to help you dig for a win condition and mana ramp spells would help your color balance. Your big issue is the deck doesn't offer a back-up win condition if they have a solution to either half of your combo.

That loam/seismic cycle is like throwing your shitty mana flooded hand at the opponent and winning

Redraws from a spectacular place.

You should run the canopy lands!

lol that Bloodbraid into the one of Anger vs an empty board... tragic.

amazing deck

The kaya pox deck was heating on gy as a synergy to power up kaya ultra which seems one of their main win cons.

Wait Congrats on 200K

Seth fell for the Phoenix trap, playing t1 spellbomb instead of iok meant you didn't know what game plan they were on and just got janked out. Remember: Phoenix is not a graveyard deck, it's a turbo Xerox deck that uses the graveyard.

I actually think a Gruul build of this deck would be better. Main deck some Anger of the Gods and interaction to make up for the black cards, you can still Loam and Wrenn, maybe throw in a Crucible or two, Prismatic Vista to find basics when you need them in response to Blood Moon. Could be fun

My buddy has been tweaking a seismic assault deck for a while. I am excited to see a 2 color version

I actually think straight RG might be the way to go, running 4 Assault and 1-2 Ayula's Influence, then some number of Sheltered Thickets.

Assault

The second game of the first match was really decided on turn 1 when you decided to play Spellbomb instead of leading with Inquisition. If you had played Inquisition you could have played both Spellbomb and Fatal Push on turn 2. Instead you left Inquisition stranded in your hand for two turns, and it could very likely have taken Aria turn 1.

This deck needs gitrog and dakmor salvage because both cards would be good in it anyways.

ib4 green mountain coffee announced as new sponser

31:22 "We have all 4 left in our deck" Seth you're only playing 3 Seismic Assault

Congrats on 200k subs! Will there be a special celebration vid?

this deck needs 4 faithless looting, and probably some number of magmatic insight as well

you should try that green/black on stream :)

I wonder if there's a Gruul version of this deck possible. Obviously that removes your discard suite but I wonder if there are RG cards worth losing it to make the mana less painful.

cut lands, trim some other stuff (maybe lili, bloodbraid), and add 4th seismic assault and faithless looting.

Force of Vigor could help to get out from under a Blood Moon lock

GB loam world be better for a more consistent mana base. I was also looking at GR loam that uses flame jab as back up removal. Plus a one of wurm harvest for the grind value late game

can we get more pauper content. plz.

is Living Twister just too slow to consider adding? Seems like a good way to run more Seismic Assaults without them being totally dead draws after the first one. 2/5 body could have been pretty solid in some of these games.

I want to see that GB version. Do you think Gitrog would be to extensive/ slow? Also what about doing a couple of lands for bounce lands?

Arbor dryad seems like a lock in this deck.

How can our mana be so bad with so many lands- said after discarded 5 lands :D :D

coffee

I feel like the deck needs Looting main deck and Destructive Rev in the board. Move the trackers mb and get rid of the ravens crimes?

7:00 wtf

Ren and Styx

The deck should've been called Wrenn and 7 Loam (effects)

Is mono red prowess and mono red burn the same?

I am really curious to see if the brwed version is actually better

I feel like this deck wants an ensnaring bridge

I jsut saw that Small POX deck...I built one just like that...WB GY Hate..I dont have lilis though...but I do have leylines :)

This deck is cool. Any chance the Bant Reanimator gets played on stream this week?

Rather than dropping Red I feel like dropping Black could make sense instead.

Now play the bear version!

Why do I want Green Mountain Coffee all of a sudden?

who else googled green mountain coffee?

This deck was missing Faithless Looting. That would've really helped in a lot of matches and would've let you play 26-27 lands.

I’m curious if he thought of a single copy of gritrog monster or the bear assault Enchantment.

I wish Wrenn and Six cost less, I can't even afford a single copy for my Lord Windgrace EDH deck. It would beat out Verdant Catacombs as the most expensive piece by fair margin.

What set are those basic forests from? Gorgeous!

41:28 Can't we Ghost Quarter our own land, grab a Swamp, and Collective Brutality to gain 2 life? The next Assassin's Trophy can get rid of the Blood Moon and we can start to go to town!

Might I suggest Tectonic Reformation for the increased modality of Land Discard?

Good thing they banned Bridge so we can have a diverse format of all Phoenix all the time.

GReEn MoUnTaiN CofFEe

Why not just run Gruul Assault? I feel like there is enough Gruul stuff to make a solid deck.

So whats up with all the pheonix?

Wrenn and “Stix”

This deck needs fry or sinkhole. Sinkhole is bad because delve so probably Fry then

Coffee?

Wrenn and six with gitrog monster pls
