This video, particularly that first match, reminded me of someone fun my LGS a decade ago. He always signed up for Modern events with standard power level decks. But whenever he was ahead, he would be giggling the whole time. If he won a game, he would be ecstatic. If he won a match! That would make his whole week! That dude had more fun playing magic than I knew was possible
I remember building a Ponza/Wildfire deck with Magnivore as a finisher back when 9th edition came out because that was literally the theme of the red preconstructed deck. I used Stone Rains, Icefalls from Coldsnap, Demolishes and a few sorcery-speed burn spells like Lava Spike and Volcanic Hammer. The point was to control the game until you reached 6 mana, cast Magnivore and seal the deal with Wildfire. It was a bit annoying to play against, but it packed a punch in casual tables.
Uno de los primeros mazos que arme cuando empecé a jugar premodern era un rgu con magnivoro, y con el azul tenía guided passage, juego de manos y portent... La base de mana era media caotica
Yes, there's already a strictly better version of this deck, which is one of the 3 best decks in the format. This is a list optimized for fun rather than competitivity, haha
Not really. That card is just too cute and doesn't actually do anything against most decks. Even against Replenish they can Attunement/Frantic Search and Replenish in the same turn, so it just doesn't work. The whole concept of a Wish package is just wishful thinking (pun intended).
@@maxzakh I mean, to be honest Pardic Miner seems just too bad a card for the context of Premodern. I hope you can make it work, though, cause it sounds hella sweet!
@@fpawluszmtg I just got to the end of the video and yeah I came to the same conclusion with the blue and green one as well. Will say it was fun in g/w tron but not something I'd take to an actual tourny. Great video btw, you're a blessing to the premodern community
@@fpawluszmtg One of the things I like the most about premodern is that almost every "cool" card seems to be genuinely playable. Not necessarily amazing, but there's often a way you can cook with them to make a quasi-competitive and interesting deck.
Are there two cards to the right of Magnivore in the deck tech? I only count 58 cards total, but MTGO says 60. Edit: I see in the video at 8:25, the other two cards are two copies of Slice and Dice.
Yeah, I guess I forgot to move the Slice and Dice into the picture when I was doing the deck tech. When in doubt you can always find a link to the decklist in the description of the video.
@@fpawluszmtg Thanks for the tip! Love your content, especially this video. You were so excited to make some of those cool plays and it really came out!
@@DreLeila I do them when I can. I make these videos 100% for fun (not for money) and they take quite a bit of time to make. I can only devote so much time to them, unfortunately.
Playing any non-Magnivore creatures in the Oath deck is a no-no from me. We could play Mox Diamond, but the point of this deck was to make a budge friendly/more casual version of RG Oath.
