00:00Good morning, good evening, or good afternoon, depending on where you are in the world.
00:04We'd like to present to you an up-to-date series on Magic the Gathering Online.
00:09I'd like to first show you what's new, and then also like to play a best out of the three
00:14series.
00:15Okay, so first we're going to go to Inbox to see what's new.
00:20Just to let you know, Strikhaven is coming out.
00:24And you can click on the link, it'll show you.
00:26And also, the Arena Weekly Announcements have in terms of what's new with that.
00:32And also, they're also looking for feedback with Magic the Gathering Online.
00:39Also, the next thing you do, so when you're playing, you always want to check what's new.
00:44Always want to check what's in the store that you can get for in-game.
00:47Now, I can only say as a personal preference, I don't recommend buying virtual stuff unless it comes with physical
00:54cards.
00:55I always thought physical cards are better.
00:57So you can see I have 8,000.
00:59I'm not buying any.
01:01Well, let's see what we have.
01:0313,000.
01:05For the new stuff.
01:09Let's do this.
01:116,000 for 4.
01:13How many I get?
01:146 packs for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 packs for 6,000.
01:19Yeah, 6 packs.
01:206,000.
01:20All right, let's do that.
01:28A lot of times you buy in bulk, you get extra.
01:30So I have my 6 packs.
01:32What we're going to be doing is we're going to be playing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles packs.
01:40Wow, look at all those.
01:47Okay, you can see.
01:48What we want to do is we want to look at, read it and see what is the rare stuff.
01:59What else?
02:00I want to look through my other cards too.
02:03I think Gold Border, do you want to look through?
02:07Once we came with an Uncommon, which is good, so we can build a deck.
02:12What we're going to do is we're just going to play it out and see how this goes.
02:21We have a Golden Pack.
02:23Beautiful.
02:24What do we have?
02:26Okay.
02:29Super Shredder.
02:31Red King Verminster.
02:34Ooh, Manicant Core.
02:35I like.
02:40There we go, Guardian.
02:46Turtles get plus 2, plus 2.
02:47That's really good.
02:49Flash.
02:50Flash, by the way, you can do it at any.
02:52You may cast a spell any time.
02:54You can cast an instant.
02:56In a Dead Water Shaper, also, other type of creatures you control are indestructible.
03:03So, if they're normal, regular damage, he doesn't die through combat damage.
03:09It can be removed, but it won't be destroyed, per se.
03:14So, what I have here is I have 29 commons, 39 uncommons, 16 or as 8 mythics.
03:19What I'm going to do, I'm just going to, I'm going to play it out, best out of three, to
03:22get a feeling of how it goes, okay?
03:24What I want to do going forward with this is I want to just be playing the new stuff.
03:30I want to be up to date and play the new stuff and see how it goes.
03:33So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to play, best out of three, which I have events, but
03:41I'm not going to be doing that.
03:44Start a deck, do I, I don't want to do that.
03:48I want to do this.
03:50I need to have 6,000.
03:53It's okay.
03:54What we're going to do is we're going to play an actual tournament at some point.
03:57But, wait, definitely I'm going to do best out of three.
04:07Alchemy, historic.
04:11This is everything from before.
04:13It's historic pioneer play.
04:16Pioneer play.
04:18Is this the new stuff?
04:22Hmm, interesting.
04:25I think I've ever played Pioneer before.
04:37Okay.
04:38What we're going to do is we're going to do standard play.
04:42We're going to go with our Arcane Aerolists, okay?
04:45As we build up those cards, we're going to look more at what the cards do.
04:49We want to be familiar with the cards first before we play because we'll know how to build the decks
04:53and how they play.
04:55And then when we play, we can know how they interact and what deck works best against every other deck
05:01as a universal method.
05:03So, what we're going to do is we're going to click play.
05:06Now, this is quite good.
05:09At least, traditionally it has been.
05:12You have defense.
05:13You have countering.
05:17So, now the deck's only as good as how well you play it, to be quite honest, but you understand
05:22what I'm saying, right?
05:27So, I'm going to be doing more of this.
05:28We're going to try to do this at least five days a week.
05:35Let's aim towards six days.
05:36Seven days, I can't guarantee because I'd like to have one day and relax.
05:41But it's possible.
05:42You could do seven days, but yeah.
05:48Yeah, I like streaming and doing this for fun.
05:51Out here, I don't have any mana, so I'll be acceptable again.
05:55Oh, this is rough.
05:56Let's mow again, again.
05:58Wow.
06:01There we go.
06:03This is brutal.
06:04This is really brutal.
06:06There's one.
06:09Yeah, you've got to take the one that has the most.
06:13That is really brutal.
06:16Yeah.
06:18That's brutal stuff.
06:20Well, if you don't have any mana, then what can you do?
06:22So, you don't really have any choice in the matter.
06:26That's really bad.
06:33Okay, we've got something we can use.
06:35Let's just get stuff out.
06:37We need because we have less cards.
06:38We want to get stuff out faster.
06:43It's a plus and a minus because then when we bring this out, right,
06:48it's going to come and tap, so I need another one drop.
06:51Or it's going to work.
06:55Okay, let's just bring this in.
06:59Yes, we want that.
07:01So, that's the good thing about scrying.
07:03We're going to attack for one.
07:08Let's see what I'm saying.
07:09So, remember the objective here is we want to get them down to zero.
07:15Now, there's cards that says that they don't lose even if they get to zero,
07:20which is a very rare, almost overpowered card for that matter.
07:25What you want to do is get some defense against flyers.
07:28So, you want to really vary it.
07:32I could go all in with this, but I want to have that just in case he has something.
07:38Now, if we look at what he has for mana now, we see he has, he's putting out, what was
07:44it, black?
07:45Oh, blue, green, green, green, green.
07:48So, we've got a 4-2.
07:52See how I was right in my intuition.
07:55He slams when we have a blocker.
07:57Ooh, beautiful.
07:59That's nice.
08:01Now, the idea is when we play, we don't worry about winning.
08:04We worry about learning.
08:07Because what we want to do, we want to focus on learning.
08:13That's no attacks.
08:16It's another really good card to get mana out.
08:19And blue, green can be quite good because you can aggro.
08:22It's called aggro deck or just get the mana out real fast.
08:27Problem is the 4-2 and 4-3 kind of difficult.
08:30Now, with the gold board, you know that it's more expensive.
08:32It's a better deck.
08:34It's multicolored.
08:35Three colors are more difficult to get.
08:38So, if you can get it out, good for him.
08:41Normally, for a variety, so you're not too one-dimensional.
08:46What you don't want to do, see, what made more sense was to kill this one, actually.
08:51Because then I couldn't block.
08:53See, now I can actually block that and take no damage.
08:57See, that's, what you need to do is don't, see, no damage.
09:01And it doesn't have trample.
09:03So, you want to get just blockers out.
09:10So, let's tap that.
09:16And let's swing a batter for one.
09:22See, that gives me lifelink.
09:24So, each damage you do, it says, damaged out by a creature, planes overspelled with lifelink,
09:30also causes control of being that much of a life.
09:33So, he's taking damage.
09:34Ooh, that's a good one.
09:36Nice.
09:37That's a good one.
09:39So, don't focus on winning.
09:42Don't worry about, ooh, Esper Origins.
09:45Ooh, nice.
09:46Another nice card.
09:48Very nice.
09:51Yes, indeed.
09:54Yep, Esper.
09:55Esper is very strong.
09:57Wow.
10:01Yeah, this is...
10:04Focus on learning.
10:07Unless you've figured out all the decks in every single combination,
10:12and you have the experience to know what to do,
10:14then I would focus more on learning than,
10:17oh, did I win?
10:18No, did I learn?
10:20That makes more sense.
10:25So, you want to get all these out.
10:27Oops, no.
10:28You can only have one of the, because this is a rare,
10:31this is a legendary rare.
10:33You can only have one in play at the same time.
10:37What we're going to do is,
10:41we're not going to attack.
10:45We need blockers.
10:47Now, it's very possible that,
10:49let's see if he swings in with everything,
10:51which is probably recommended.
10:55It's going to be game over.
11:00What I need in this deck is removal.
11:02I need to be able to do, like, a Wrath of God.
11:05That's something I would need.
11:07More counters, more...
11:08But it also depends on what you draw, too.
11:12So, you can't just play any card you want.
11:16Nice, very nice.
11:23But you see how we played it,
11:24and this is the point.
11:29See?
11:30Beautiful.
11:32Okay, so we're playing best side of three.
11:33So, we have a chance to adjust
11:35what we have here.
11:42Let's take that.
11:43Yeah, let's take that.
11:55We definitely want to play first.
11:58We've got two land,
11:59and when we look at the drops,
12:00two, two, two, two, two.
12:01This is a three, and this is a three.
12:04We have two.
12:04Let's keep.
12:06First things first,
12:08we're going to want to play out
12:09what we can play.
12:10But because he can't...
12:11Probably not going to play any one drops,
12:13he'll probably play what we can't.
12:14play any way first.
12:15So, you put your worst drop out first.
12:19We scry it.
12:20Okay, that's three.
12:22That's possible.
12:27We'll put the two, bring out.
12:32Okay, we have these two.
12:34What can we bring out?
12:36Well, let's do this
12:38because we want to get cards out.
12:41This card, what we can't use immediately.
12:46Let's discard this one.
12:49What we're looking for is the best card we can bring out.
12:52So, we have...
12:54If we draw another one,
12:55we're going to play
12:57probably two cards.
12:59We want to bring him out.
13:0105, blocker.
13:0305, blocker.
13:03Okay, good.
13:05We're always looking for the best play.
13:07So,
13:10probably...
13:10I'm going to play this one.
13:13And then I'm going to play this guy.
13:18Now, you notice it has a four.
13:20You put the mouse over.
13:21You can see it's three colors
13:23instead of one blue.
13:24You have to draw a card.
13:27So, what we want to do
13:28is just wait next turn.
13:32When he brings out his heavy hitters,
13:34we bring out the stasis there.
13:36We have to time it right.
13:38Consider the situation.
13:40Okay.
13:41Let's bring this out.
13:45And let's swing
13:47because he doesn't have anything to block.
13:50Okay.
13:51We do have our blocker here.
13:52And what we're going to want to do
13:53going forward
13:55is bring Dazzling Ninjal
13:58because whenever another creature
13:59you control enters
14:00you get a life.
14:02You want to immediately
14:03gaining life.
14:05The other option I can do
14:07is all creatures are forming
14:08so I can immediately do more damage.
14:11That's another possibility.
14:15The question is
14:16can he counter that?
14:19Now what I'm going to do
14:21is I can swing for six.
14:24Six damage
14:24on one turn
14:26which is significant.
14:27Six out of 21.
14:30I'm surprised he's
14:35surprised he's not countering it.
14:37But
14:41I hate to say
14:42make the assumption
14:43but
14:44you can pretty much
14:45guess that he's
14:46got something in mind.
14:48Otherwise
14:49yeah what else?
14:59Okay.
15:004-2.
15:00Nice.
15:02That's nice.
15:04Yeah that's
15:05what you want to do
15:06is find out
15:07what's working.
15:08How to fare what you do
15:08you're doing here.
15:08Okay.
15:08What do you want to do
