Hey Seth, is there a reason you're playing cooped up instead of more ossification? Ossification is just better, is it more expensive or something?
"tough cookie seems like a pretty good card" yeah it's absolutely disgusting in limited lol
@14:23 you might have missed lethal there, you could have re-cursed your Hexmage with the second Hexmage, making the Wicked role go to the graveyard and killing them, they were tapped out and could not crack food, I think.
Do rolls count as casting an enchantment? I'm intrigued at the possibility of them in Enchantress, but I'm not sure if they'd even work.
Ok the intro actually made me laugh
it sounds like you say smellbook bender instead of spellbook vendor 🤣🤣
Honestly when an opponent is a ramp deck and drops stomper turn 3, I think it's the right call to leave a blocker behind since the follow-up of invasion of zendikar + flip it for 2 4/4 vigilant beatsticks is a huge tempo swing
24:00 the rats can't block seth! And your spellbook vendor has vigilance
I really want to try something like this with eriette's tempting apple. Steal a creature, attack play the spiteful hexmage and curse their creature.
Why not play wicked visitor? It pings everytime an enchantment hits the graveyard. Roles hit the graveyard quite a bit in this deck.
since when is the set out in arena ?
14:25 duddde what a misplayyy
U couldve cast the hexmage to remove the wicked role to the win
that's the best opening ever! pleeeease try to fit in more memes into your vids, that'd be awsome 😀
One fun thing about roles that might be fun is Chaotic Transformation, as a token you can finally get an artifact, enchantment and creature from your deck as you choose with the right deck building. Might turn into a fun combodeck ^^'
favorite Role combo is Twisted Sewer-Witch and Warehouse Tabby. If you keep blinking Sewer-Witch you make a Rat, then put a Wicked Role on each Rat you control. If those Rats had any Wicked Roles, you drain your opponent for each one that leaves, and Tabby makes another Rat for each one as well (which then can get Roles from Sewer-Witch to make fall off and make more Rats and drain your opponents)
Could he not have cursed atraxa?
Budget decks are kinda funny when done on the event where you get all the cards for free. Technically all early access decks are budget decks.
I don't normally yell at you for punts, but you should have attacked through the topiary stompers.
That Intro!
Seth you had the win on game 2 with the wicked role! Just had to cast that 1 drop, replace role with he role you got to put on and that would have been the final damage
Love the content and the deck!
One question though: Would Caves of Koilos brake the budget? The deck already isn't arena budget friendly because of all the rares
And then maybe to keep it orzhov while still adding threat protection maybe "Not Dead After All"?
Sweet deck! I'm kinda surprised that this deck is pretty much just a WOE limited deck – I kinda expected to see some of the Modified payoffs from NEO (or at least Michiko's Reign of Truth).
Seth you actually punted having lethal vs atraxa, the wicked role token deals damage when the role is putted on the graveyard, playing the other spiteful hexmage and putting its role replacing the wicked would have dealt the 1 damage needed
No wrapup where you talk about how the deck did, what could change, etc??
This set will have a huge impact on other formats, and I am here for it.
This makes me want to build an abzan version with Calix
feels like a deck that really wants the WB sac a nonland permanent exile a nonland permanent with flashback card honestly. Rite of oblivion or whatever.
This was a great video brother Set.
rick roles hahaha
Description says "$0 budget"
The Atraxa endgame at 14:30 had a few ways to swing lethal(frex, Spiteful Hexmage to replace a Wicked Role, summon the Spellbook Vendor to replace one of the Wickeds at battle start while keeping the +1s), and if you didn't notice those, you still coulda swung defensive advantage by summoning Hexmage(B), cursing Hexmage, having Spellbook Vendor(W+1) hit the board, spending the (1) to give itself Sorcerer, and using Wicked Witch adventure(B) to give a Wicked to overwrite the Curse, thats 5 Mana within your colors of WWW+B+[W/B](Which woulda still lost to Twilight but would have put up a better board for an Atraxa or other more grindy tactic)
Um, Seth… Topiary Stomper has been in the game for 65 million years.
That intro was an all-timer
"Rakdos, do you have removal?" The better question is do they ever not have removal.
Because this vid did not have a post-game wrap-up, the games we saw had Seth go 4 and 3(blah blah Early Access disclamer blah), and, yes, Seth punted game 4.
