Eiganjo, not eijano
Watching you have to wait on people is so cathartic given how you rope nearly every turn in arena… oh but wait, it’s ok because you’re streaming and chatting, right?
53:33 I'm pretty sure you could have left up Settle here – your devotion to white is 4, so Nykthos makes 2 mana net, letting you leave up 2 lands and the new Nykthos that can then be used to cast the sweeper with.
Nice thumbnail 🙂
Seth quickly went to prison between match 2 and 3
Couldn't you have crewed Hearse on 53:20 so that Witherbloom Command fizzled?
ngl I really wanna play this deck in paper now, although I am a fan of angel tribal so I might lean more into that direction.
very cool, and surprisingly not too terrible
If memory serves me right, white decks in Standard would run Gisela the Broken Blade because it was still solid, with like one copy of Bruna the Fading Light because it was so expensive – but if you DID manage to meld them, you got a nice Brisela combo that wreaked havoc on so many decks.
Props for the thumbnail and those who get it
Bro Bear’s barking was hella scary haha
This thumbnail is so cute, but the lore behind it makes it so messed up.
It’s undeniably cool melding two cards. However, it’s also undeniably bad 🤣
Parhelion and Nykthos need to be banned, those two decks are taking over
Looking at the comments, I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed the lack of Giada
Brisela might be the more fun meld, but Hanweir Battlements/Garrison was one of my favorite brew cards for standard. Wish it got more love.
Thumbnail power level over 9000.
Lol the cube draft at game 1
21:43 when you get beat by mono red: Just go mono red yourself xD
Great content Seth. You never fail to entertain. I made a control deck with the meld package in it and found it to be "win more" personally. It's difficult to achieve and there are imo better finisher options to win a match quicker. It was nice to somewhat revisit this "Gisela dream" in a non Teferi meta.
I feel like the biggest obstacle this deck has to overcome is Solitude, and Supreme Verdict. If you can't answer those cards effectively, I don't know why you'd want to spend 1.5-2 cards and at least 7 mana to get this to happen.
Pioneer does not seem fun…
Cinnamon Toast Crunch Rolls v.1.1 play this in legacy pls 😉 looks soo awesome dice stompy
I like meld. Cool concept
