If you're having trouble winning with combat after setting up the lock, you could always play a 1-of Helix Pinnacle since it's searchable by Sterling Grove.

@blueredlover1060 Год назад

The Sanctum Weavers tapping for literally 15 mana makes that viable, too.

@KVGKQuake Год назад

This seems like a super easy to achieve win in this deck, and I love it

@rlidwka Год назад

That's one more card you never want to draw. Nice meme though. If you have trouble winning with combat, you untick all the phase stops on magic online, and learn to discard your hand down to 7 really really fast at the end of the turn. Just don't forget to put stops back next game, I did that mistake once...

@RiKSh4w Год назад

There's no such thing as 'struggling' to win after setting up the lock. Hit 6 and take off all stops, walk away from your PC.

@MTGGoldfish Год назад

Ohh, that sounds fun (although technically the lock will win by the opponent milling out, assuming they can't break the lock).

@zackestin1368 Год назад

at 35:00 when he said "I dont thiink the opponent knows how the lock works, theyre going to use a pump spell to kill gideon" I was fully waiting for them to do that, because deification requires a creature on the board for your planeswalkers to be protected, which seth did not have.

Ha, when I said that I didn't realize it was Heliod Combo. The names on the overlay are added after in editing. I was thinking they were a Hardened Scales deck that was looking to win with attacking (although I guess even then I'd still sort of be wrong since they could probably win by making a huge Walking Ballista.

Seth: "I don't know if I've ever won a game with 10 poison counters before." Also Seth 15 minutes prior: "Wow, we're going to win with eleven infect. That is the power of the lock!" *does win with 11 poison counters 2 minutes later*

@VictorTheLegend Год назад

11 not 10 though

@thechestrockfield Год назад

@VictorTheLegend I was thinking about saying he's technically correct because of that, but there is no functional difference between 10 and 11 poison at the end of the game. I thought about a scenario where you're parking to go into a store and your spouse asks you if you have a quarter for a meter so you can park on the street right by the door and you say no because you had two quarters. In these scenarios, you do have 10 poison (a quarter), which is the important part, and you also have an additional one.

@sw0rdhunter Год назад

@@thechestrockfield He most likely recorded the game vs infect first but the editor swapped the order of the games in the video to put the hammer time match first because it was the best example of the deck doing it's thing vs a good modern meta deck.

@thespanishinquisiton8306 Год назад

In the match against Yawgmoth, you should have brought in Leyline of Sanctity. Both Blood Artist and Geralf's Messenger target players, so you can shut off the combo that way.

@timfuqua4982 Год назад

It doesn't just shut off the combo, it forces them to target THEMSELVES. Blood Artist is not a "may", and it says that you MUST target a "player". And since they can't target you, they MUST target themselves to lose 1 life. With Yawg that actually means they lose 2 and gain 1, which will force them to sac the Blood Artist in order to not kill themselves.

@seandun7083 Год назад

@@timfuqua4982 forcing them to target themselves doesn't actually change anything since they lose 1 and gain 1 during the resolution meaning they net even and can't die to it even if they are at 1 after paying life for Yawgmoth.

@Eraxley Год назад

@@seandun7083 Yawgmoth's activation costs 1 life, so they net lose one life per activation if they have to target themselves with the blood artist. I think, at least?
