Doomsday is not for the faint of heart, and today’s deck demonstrates that perfectly.

As Time Walks go, that has to be about the least threatening one I've ever seen! 😆
I think everybody would really like if you made a video in the future going over your cube card rankings in a more formal way.
Ummm, with Thassa's Oracle, wouldn't you win with Memory Jar since you draw
"Xander's Place to Chill" is what I'm calling Xander's Lounge from now on
You're never gonna forgive yourself for that Cabal Rit are you?
I am glad they added doomsday to the vintage cube. It makes some great decks!
What happens when you cast Doomsday and then crack jar?
Coolest deck in a minute
Does this video have more background noise than usual or is it just because I am watching on my phone at full volume versus normally on my laptop at mid volume?
I think I found a line that wins in game 1 of match 1. Not perfect but the best I could find.
Rain of filth (6B, 3U). Tap swamp, sac 2 swamps play doomsday, hold priority (3B, 3U). Crack jar hold priority. Cast mystical for frantic search (3B, 2U). Draw the 7.
Doomsday pile – brain storm/chart, LED (island if draw emrakul off jar), Oracle, 2 don't matters. If you draw cards from the jar you need for doomsday, you could always just keep your hand and put meaningless cards on top. If you draw emrakul off of the jar, the LED play doesn't work so instead you choose island for LED. Play land if island in hand else play frantic search (min 4 mana/2U). Keep LED/island and brainstorm. Play LED/island, play brainstorm, hold priority crack LED for blue. draw the 3 cards put back 2 not oracle. Play Oracle win?
Obviously doesn't work if they draw into free counter but I think spell pierce could be played around potentially as long as you don't draw emrakul.
This deck is born from the same mind who won matches in vintage as a storm deck where the tendrils of agony wasn’t even in the 75. I remember hearing this lsv story on LR quite some time ago (or maybe I’m misremembering the source).
this was a brain melter
Really fun deck, some bad luck but that's magic. One of those decks that I love watching you pilot because I would have timed out of every match, and you have considered and discarded lines I want even aware of in a matter of minutes.
I've been kind of unimpressed with Doomsday in the cube this season. Requires investment in drafting niche cards that all become inflexible and worthless if you don't get the critical mass. Also very risky going down to 5 cards in library in a world of draw 7's and a high density of targeted draw effects. Both times my opponents went for doomsday this season I just decked them.
Doomsday makes fools of all of us. The second I cast it i forget whatever line I had
casting flash to bait a counter was hilarious
let’s get locked in. Let’s get involved.
The Doomsday around 58:00, I was thinking the whole time you could just put The One Ring on top, play it next turn, then have Duress/Thassa's up with 0 cards in deck on the next turn with the ring protection keeping us alive. Editing this, looks like we died either way, but I think this line is pretty good?
Can someone explain why game 1 LSV didn’t just doomsday, play Oracle, then crack jar?
You always draft the sickest decks that only you can pilot.
Trying to figure out a doomsday pile is what magic is all about.
Fireblast inevitability aside… I think Chart A Course was the card you were looking for in your Doomsday pile in Round 2.
make the following “pass the turn” pile:
-brainstorm
-LED
-chart a course
-Thassa’s Oracle
– X
Untap, draw and cast Brainstorm, put back land & Oracle. Cast Chart, crack LED for UUU, draw Oracle and Land, discard Land. Cast Oracle.
Thanks for all the super fun cube content.
This is why people don't like Doomsday, trying to figure out the pile after half a game of MTG just takes too long.
Lsv thinking we all seeing that the Doomsday line with the graveyard doesn't work while we were totally all along for the ride 😂
.
You (And your deck) sure made things hard for you this draft 😂. Love the positive attitude you manage to keep which is one of the reasons you are a GOAT content creator.
In game 1 of match 3, you could just entomb tendrils for the easy win I think. I can see how the animate dead makes one tunnel vision Atraxa though 😊.
Huge respect for Doomsdaying again!
how does one ring + time vault works? Can you bank in an extra turn while still being protected?
49:15 untapping creeping tar pit rather than island really did emrakul dirty
Doomsday is one of the most difficult cards to play. It's impressive to see you coming up with lines on the fly.
Thoughts on discarding to hand size m2g1 (around 40:00) after playing your first land?
Obviously feels kinda bad on the play but it does still make for a fairly fast Atraxa. I've seen CalebD advocate for this before, arguing that discarding to hand size on the play is sometimes worthwhile when you're reanimator
52:52 to be fair you have 1 flash x 2 reanimate spells in deck…so 50% more chance to draw a reanimate, so discarding troll instead atraxa was wrong
these types of decks are so much fun to watch
It was. a beautiful deck
last pick troll is why I prefer the team drafts, that's just silly.
Why do you always swallow so loudly. Its such a disgisting habit. Listening to you is such a pain.
Smacking and swallowing while talking. Work on that.
wait… game 1 / can't you just put whatever in the doomsday pile, cast Oracle, then Jar in response?
