So Much Power It Doesn't Fit In The Thumbnail | Vintage Cube Draft 

he was def being sarcastic lol

LSV, tomorrow: "I never open power, anyways."

@monorady The play and education/instruction is great, but it’s the wit and humor that keep me coming back every day.

beat me to it 😂 ​@@MatthewForsytheHi

That was by far the coolest game

High key epic even. Big moves

8-8 still pretty good. It can be tough to bat even .500 against some of these PT circuit guys, and good luck against most of the folks who have a top 8, you gunna need it.

I know there was at least one episode of Limited Resources where they broke down all the black cards in the cube, but I don't remember if they did any of the other colors.

He did a video in Feb where he talked about the top 50 cards in the cube and why they're good. Most of the cards outside of that are just mana acceleration, fixing, card draw, interaction, etc. you know the cards like ponder, llanowar elf, and bitter triumph that fill out the deck. Those cards, a lot of them are semi replaceable, but they're just the most efficient versions of those effects.

I’ll scan the LR playlist for that, thanks! Also, I did watch the top 50. Much of the cube is everything else like you described but I’m constantly picking up nuggets he drops throughout most episodes that weren’t in the top 50 vid.

Fun fact, iirc any one who 3-0s a draft gets to add a card to the cube. Dunno if both alphafrog and Luis sets of cubes are both doing this atm, but last I thought we heard about it Luis was doing it for his.

Ahh good call

It’s just ok at all of these but for now that’s enough - agree it’s not the first choice anywhere

Taking two damage to play Watery Grave untapped is far more likely to cost a game than using it to activate Golos is to win a game.

Yep, LSV confirmed psychic.

@@Billyofcourse Ah. Thanks!

Putting lands in his deck that come into play tapped (or cost life) some amount of the time is a pretty big cost for a Golos he's probably going to activate less than once a draft.

Dunno it’s really accurate to say he doesn’t like reanimator. He’s just less high on it in certain formats. On standard MTGO leagues I’d think he’d repeat his statement from a couple months back that he still feels it’s the strongest archetype, and given the video history it looks mostly like he doesn’t like reanimator when he’s in a position where strong opponents know he’s on it and will cut him. Dunno about the stats between different formats but it could be the case that it’s easier to identify and cut off in these team 5s, have to ask him what the record keeping stuff they do says about the optimal circumstances to play reanimator in teams formats and how much the number of players and packs effects things.

It’s easier to have 8 people available for a draft than 10

@@leanderthal1138that is true, but 6 is easier than 8 and 3v3 is a better version of 4v4.

@@johnnyk5 How is 3v3 better than 4v4? The wheels feel strange when there is 2 less players and you see less of the cube so some strategies dont work because 90 less cards are in the pool. Only benefit I see is its easier to organize 6 players but none of that benefits us watching the youtube video.

Pretty sure what draft they run has more to do with who's ready to draft, than what makes ideal content for one of the people involved.

In no way is 3v3 better than 4v4. Are you stupid?
