Blue may not be the first color you think of when you think of Enchantments in Magic: the Gathering, but it actually has the most enchantments apart from White! In this video, I take a look at the Blue Enchantments that have left the biggest impact on competitive Magic.

It is worth noting at 4:03 that Spreading Seas is especially nasty against Urza's Saga because making it an Island still lets it stay a Saga and taking away its abilities makes it so that it technically has more lore counters than it has chapters (it keeps the counters but now has 0 chapters), forcing its controller to sac it. Basically, against an Urza's Saga Spreading Seas becomes 2 mana land destruction that cantrips. Nasty tech indeed

@happyslapsgiving5421 Месяц назад

I did *NOT* expect Sharknado to be in this.

@assault410 Месяц назад

Just a better mono colored hydra

@666magic Месяц назад

I use it and quite a few matches with it but I didn't think it was a card used in a more professional environment.

@7ItalianStallion Месяц назад

@@666magicoh for sure. Two for ones are especially good in regular magic as every card you receive in a game matters a lot. There are not nearly as many insanely powerful card draw or mana ramp or combos like in commander and the really powerful cards tend to be spells that don't last more than a turn whereas Commander has a lot of permanence that just keep generating a lot of value. Real magic can be so hit for hit card for card that having something that's almost impossible to counter that draws you a card and creates a creature when in a pinch or offensively try to finish the opponent by cycling it during your opponent's end step and swinging your next turn. If you're able to cast the enchantment then that's usually game in your favor

@danhostetler1423 Месяц назад

I'm guessing Rhystic Study didn't pay the 1 to get on this list.

@n.m5253 Месяц назад

Shark Typhoon got me wondering how the list of top ten cards with cycling would look like nowadays

@fontainelefunk Месяц назад

probably a lot of those big creatures with cheap cycle costs that get reanimated later. I'd like to see the list too.

The Shark is mightier than the Dress.

Dress Down kills the shark's tornado, though.

This is an underrated comment.

@navydave5238 Месяц назад

Not really, its main advantage is being legal in weaker formats.

@doomhowar Месяц назад

@@navydave5238 it's a joke about sharking. Or at least I thought it was

@peterjessen97 Месяц назад

Funny story. If you cast Spreading Seas on Urza's Saga (4:05) then the saga is sacrificed to state based actions, before you even draw a card (although you still draw a card)

@Ulim151 Месяц назад

Arent state based actions checked after the etb resolved?

@alexandergraham1281 Месяц назад

@@Ulim151State based actions are checked whenever a player receives priority so spreading seas would put its etb on the stack then priority would pass to the other player if they wanted to respond to the ability but before they even get a chance to respond the saga would be sacrificed to sba

@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai Месяц назад

Have you ever done a top 10 price crashes video? That could be interesting. Maybe talk about why a card was so expensive like you do in “most expensive” videos, and what caused it to crash.

@a.b.2723 Месяц назад

This sounds like a portal three kingdoms reprints review

@devononair Месяц назад

The answer in nearly every case will be "it got reprinted."

@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai Месяц назад

@@devononair Power creep is a pretty common reason as well

@TheShinyFeraligatr Месяц назад

That doesn't cause prices to crash, it causes prices to decline. Crashes only happen after reprints or leaving Standard, generally, or occasionally bans.

@sufifi Месяц назад

I expected to see Dream Halls and Opposition on this list but I guess their days of glory are too far gone to make it on the list... Which is a shame, Merfolk Opposition is one of my favorite archetypes ever.

@mightyone3737 28 дней назад

I love how Energy Flux is #3 when it's a card I NEVER see in Commander, it's very much the type of card you fear if you know about, most Commander decks love their artifacts! I will never forget losing a game because it got milled when I was planning to tutor it up on the next turn, that's life! It's also amazing how few old Enchantments are on the list.

@PokeBattlerJaze Месяц назад

Spreading Seas? Edit: Not even close, also, damn, surprised the sharknado reference has THAT many points.

@johngleeman8347 Месяц назад

At least you named one of the heavy hitters. XD

@ChromaToneMusic Месяц назад

#1 is one of my favorite cards from favorite set. I remember when it was spoiled 😍

@ProfessorSprouts Месяц назад

Did not mention how dress down combos with phyrexian dreadnought? And it's sweet because you cast DD at the endstep of your opponent, and you get until the end of the NEXT turn until you need to get rid of it... so you draw your card Of DD and then have all of next turn to cast one (or more :) ) dreadnoughts.

@TheOnlyDragonGod Месяц назад

Damn never been this early, love the videos since I first saw them many a year ago

@therealHLY Месяц назад

blue having the 2nd most enchantments makes sense to me when you consider blue is the primary control colour and enchantments are a good way to set permenant/passive control effects. plus, they're the main prison colour which is also all enchantments

@venkelos6996 Месяц назад

As Blue is my MtG color of choice, this was a list I had been looking forward to, and enjoyed! If I'm being honest, I hadn't heard of several of these, so it was kind of nice to get a sampling of "things Blue can do" that weren't already on my radar. If I'm being honest, though, my favorite thing about this list was pricing. I might just pay less attention than I should, and this is a trend throughout most of your lists, but I really like that, once we hit the top, it wasn't just the $20+ cards that happen to be Blue Enchantments. When I saw Omniscience, I just expected the stuff after it to also have that price, since they'd probably also be MRs other people had figured out the value of, swept up, and raised the price of those still in the wild, so it was nice to see the top stuff was like $1, and $5, instead of the higher numbers; they feel acquirable, assuming there is a copy to be had, on a site. 😊 Anywho, thanks for another Blue list, and I look forward to the next one!

@henlohenlo689 Месяц назад

my number 1 is: enchanted evening. which is AMAZING in enduring ideal decks. allows you to blow up all your opponents permanents while also shielding your own enchantments from board wipes. he will then lose his own permanents. while enduring ideal will still keep fetching enchantments regardless. my enduring ideal deck uses these cards eventually aurashards blows up all my opponents permanents or i just out ramp my opponents ability to cast creatures with sandwurm convergence. can also halt opponent creature aggression with ghostly prison and story circle: wall of roots axebane guardian overgrown battlement aura shards awakening zone sandwurm convergence ghostly prison and/or story circle enchanted evening enduring ideal westvale abbey (36 cards 24 lands.) ------ other cards to consider: crush of wurms and/or followed footsteps and/or plow under and/or pest infestation

@ZyggyZero Месяц назад

Aura flux makes that Enchanted Evening a liability…..

@henlohenlo689 Месяц назад

@@ZyggyZero that is a good card i didnt know about but i never seen anyone run that.

@superbaas8822 Месяц назад

@henlohenlo689 Месяц назад

@ZyggyZero actually even if they play that card aura flux i can pay to hang onto enchanted evening aura shards sandwurm convergence. then next turn my opponent would lose all his permanents. then my turn i keep fetching good ones like sandwurm convergence. story circle aura shards enchanted evening. awakening zone ghostly prison. etc summary: he plays aura flux, then my turn, then on his turn he loses everything then on all my next turns im landing heavy hitting enchantments. keep also blowing up his permanents with aura shard. etc.

@ZyggyZero Месяц назад

@@henlohenlo689 if I’m running an aura flux, I am probably also running some form of bounce so that my Aura flux doesn’t become a self-boardwipe. I also like to combine aura flux with Winter Orb… Or if you’d prefer alternate ways to hose an enchanted evening, Fracturing Gust or Cleansing Meditation will do really nasty things….. We could spend all day trying to one up each other…. Or admit that there is no such thing as unbeatable.

One of if not the most important thing about dressdown is that it kills urzas saga tokens

@christopherbennett1173 Месяц назад

Study is garbage in 60 card formats.

@TheHive616 Месяц назад

I was thinking that it might end up on this list, but it's true, it's only gotten so popular cause it's great in Commander, but it's not so good 1v1 so it just hasn't racked up any points

@connormohs6046 Месяц назад

@blaze556922 Месяц назад

Shocked to sea omen of the sea on this list. It's just meg at best in my experience. It doesn't even make the cut in an all enchantment theme like Tatsunari Toad Rider.

@superbaas8822 Месяц назад

And then you play stronger formats that want to dig for stronger payoffs. Yorion especially breaks the card, but I imagine you never put them together.
