@@Fly-the-Light😂😂😂. Lmao mono red would splash for him. He was busted beyond belief

@Fly-the-Light 3 месяца назад

@@julianalvarez4231 In Vintage, Mono-red is something around a Tier 2/3 archetype that doesn't need him. The current best decks are Monoblue Jewel Shops, Monowhite Initiative, and Dimir Control (which sometimes splashes White). The best decks that uses Oko is the Tier 1.5/2 Oath of Druids, Tier 3 Temur Planeswalkers, and Tier 3 4c Control. Despite how busted he is/was outside of Vintage, he isn't even the best non-Power card in the best deck that uses him (Time Vault, Demonic Tutor, and Force of Will are straight better, Oath of Druids has an entire good deck built around it, and cards such as Dig Through Time are arguably better), although he is an important part of Temur Planeswalker and a notable role in 4c Control. There are, off the top of my head, a minimum of two better Planeswalkers in Vintage; Narset, Parter of Veils and Karn, the Great Creator.

@venkelos6996 5 месяцев назад

I'm not going to question the list, but I do find it a bit odd how few of the "important" Planeswalkers don't even show up on it once. Chandra, Liliana, Nissa, and others are basically like our heroes, but only Jace made it on, and even he only once.😊 Bolas was THE Big Bad, for some time, but none of his iterations are here. We FINALLY got a real Urza, Planeswalker, and he's potent, but not enough to crack the list. I guess I find it a bit funny, when Wizards so often makes stuff that we look at, and not even later, and say "how did this get cleared to go?", they didn't take any more opportunities to slip such cards under these greatest movers, and shakers, of names, that tend to move product to find them. Still, what is here is fun, and impressive. After years of terrible Tibalt, I'm still glad to see him here, even if it via shenanigans, and doesn't still work. Also fun to see Teferi not only got on the list, but showed up twice.

@XenithShadow 5 месяцев назад

Technically both chandra torch of defiance and definently lilanna of the veil should have been on the list. Particuarly since lilianna of the veil was at one point suspected to be the strongest planeswalker card even ahead of jace the mind sculpter.

Hey Nizzahon, first of all great video as usual. I watched your Q and A you made a year ago where you talked about how you use Adobe Premier to edit. But how do you create your visuals. The card surrounded by the blurred card art and the info box. Is that premier too or something else?

Minsc is more generically powerful than most of these but all the others above it had specific situations where they sorta broke formats. That's why in the cube rankings he's rated higher than even Oko.

@iLLiDaN30 5 месяцев назад

Imo Minsk and Boo deserves a top 3 spot. The card is extremely broken and a staple in all formats he is legal in.

@autobotjazz1972 5 месяцев назад

#1 would only have been a surprise if it wasn't Oko.

@dualmonkeyx 5 месяцев назад

Does Tibalt/Valki see much play anywhere since the rules interaction change? The card itself isn't overpowered in any way, just the interaction it had with cascade. Cascade is the actual overpowered thing, not the cascade payoff. I feel like it doesn't compare to the other planeswalkers on this list. It feels akin to putting Colossal Dreadmaw on a list of most powerful creatures just because there was a rules oversight that allowed you to cheat it in early. It's not an overpowered card. It'd make an excellent honorable mention but to compare it to the rest of these actual powerhouses seems off.

@collinbeal 5 месяцев назад

It does still take over the game if it's dropped. I had it played against me the other day in Brawl against my Laelia deck, and I just couldn't get out from under it.

@superbaas8822 5 месяцев назад

When you consider the historical record of the card, which is pretty much the point of this list, it ABSOLUTELY deserves the spot. It'd be like trying to say Lurrus "isn't that bad." Both were so broken that they got entire mechanics changed.

@BrandonR-mg9xt 5 месяцев назад

@@superbaas8822 I disagree with the Lurrus comparison. Lurrus was the problem, and was still the problem after companion was changed until it was banned. Valki/Tibalt was just the first convenient target that took advantage of the dual card flaw in the rules. It could have been anything. Most high mana Planeswalkers would be good if they hit that early. That is why Tibalt's trickery was axed. What should have happened is the WOTC should have changed the flaw in the rules the first week it was made clear, and then Valki would appropriately not be on the list because it would have never made a significant impact.

@melon4735 5 месяцев назад

The strongest? Yeah, maybe, but not the most overpowered. It takes waaaay more effort to get it to pop off compared to any of the PWs on this list.

@collinbeal 5 месяцев назад

If a card requires you to take several turns off to assemble it across multiple cards, it's not OP. Urza IS a consummately-strong Planeswalker, but it's always earned and fair. Same reason playing an 8-mana sorcery should basically win you the game on the spot.

@BrandonR-mg9xt 5 месяцев назад

To be fair, Teferi was kept in the format because of all of the other broken stuff around at instant speed. It was considered the lesser of two evils to keep this around rather than having to simultaneous ban 2 to 3 other cards in addition. Not arguing this is Teferi is worse than Oko to be clear

@henryzelman4541 5 месяцев назад

Because planewalkers suck in EDH. Unless you design your entire deck around them planeswalkers basically read: “activate one ability and then sacrifice them at the end of turn” because you can’t realistically block 3 opponents worth of attackers to defend them like you would in a 1v1 format. With this in mind Oko is a sorcery speed beast within that can only hit creatures and artifacts and sometimes gets to do it again.
