Magic TV: Show #96 - Limited and Magic 2012

[matt37862]

while watching this...I couldn't help thinking......this guy must get tons of ass

[frintOsan]

Just started watching. Good stuff! One quick suggestion when discussing a new set: either flash the names of the cards you are discussing on screen or the card itself, even if for a few seconds. LSV doesn't always enunciate his words (like yours truly) and it can be irksome to switch over to gatherer to look it up. Again, I really liked this analysis :)

[m1ggyzzz]

@frintOsan yeah i totally agree on this. if you're going to use youtube as a format for your show, take advantage of it! otherwise this show might as well be a podcast. two guys sitting in chairs talking doesn't really hold a viewers attention. otherwise great show, im subbing.

3:58 Classy voice crack.

[grecko506]

I disagree. I think green is the best color in m12 limited. I've forced green/red or green/black stompy decks and went x/0 in the last three drafts. Green seems to get you there with all the ramp, spiders and tramplers, plus arachnus web. it's understaffed which means it'll always be there.

[ColonelSchafer]

For your yourube intros you should bump the scroll at the bottom up so it doesn't get covered up by the controls.

[brawlboi]

you haven't lived until you draft 3 onyx mage, 4 bloodthirsty ogre, 5 gravediggers, swiftfoot boots.

[wittw]

In my experience in limited, mill decks are a trap. It seems like a ligit strategy, in a format with 40 card decks, but mill decks just don't get you there. Unless you're drafting Scars-block, the strategy of a limited deck shuold ALWAYS be to get your opponent's life total down to 0.

[Pinfeldorf]

@wittw Never drafted triple Ravnica, I'm guessing?

[fenaris]

Oh god. Laughing TSG in the opening is the most unnerving thing I've seen today.

[whyohwhynousername]

Thumbs up if you noticed the dusty table the whole time.

[KBKronic]

Bad ass intro.

[stelerscyth]

the tree is dead

[SemiBaked]

Love the show, thanks guys!

[Phillythekid86]

Hahaha... poor TSG... I can see lsv going off until they put that in the intro =D

[ProtossX]

WTF is up with that scary laugh?

[ASPerlman]

TSG sounds like Bowser

[MattGallaugher]

Top 8 Auras 

[themanwiththepan]

And the LSV laugh is...?

[clerre]

make him go raaawr!, and he can be the new Metro Goldwyn Mayer studios intro Lion :D

[rocko510]

ok, this is how you win in m12 limited, make a black white child of night deck that spams the good auras on child of night to make it a tank.

[AegairEtapa]

@rocko510 Unsummon, Aether Adept, Brink of Disaster, Gideon's Lawkeeper, Greater Basilisk, Pacifism, Stave Off. All of those commons handle your 'how to win M12 limited' strategy. No matter how many black or white enchantments you have on it. This is ignoring all the enchantment removal such as Demystify, Naturalize. At uncommon there is even more things, Acidic Slime, Crown of Empires, Mind Control, Oblivion Ring, Onyx Mage, Small Pox. Your strategy may be good, but it's not exactly unbeatable.

[Morgorroth]

Dust the table, it's a shame ! :D

[Otakonkid]

LSV has lost a ton of weight

[Morgorroth]

Dust the tablr, it's a shame ! :D

[ModeLTU]

ahahahaha, who's editing these vids? I want to shake your hand, good sir xDD

[FSDarkWatch]

dude when he looked into the camera during that laugh he looked like ursila from the lil mermaid

[Rowsol84]

epic intro.

[dizerk]

Hey if you guys can put a CFB link to your website in your video descriptions, that would be extremely helpful as i always want to go your site after watching the video, i type it in but it would be nice to just have the link.

[WUZLE]

Once again Wizards drops the ball on Green. For years they had no idea what to do with the color, resulting in poor schlubs like Jamie Wakefield trying to win with the worst color. Good Green cards were combo cards or splashed in non-green decks, and they kept printing Another Big Dumb Green Creature while giving Green no useable disruption. And here we have another basic set with Green by far the worst color. Magic is supposed to have FIVE colors, Wizards.

[heysogo]

<3 jabba laugh

[noptic]

Is there honestly a reason Tristan is there? 15 minute video, 2 minutes tops are from the guy on the left. The rest of it is from LSV. Why is the other guy even there seriously. I'm HONESTLY asking. He just nods and segways into the next point of interest.

[jvdthwip]

@noptic i always thought he was a honcho at the physical CF location, as well as a sort of ambassador representing all of us terrible players

[tuber856]

@noptic because you touch yourself at night, now stfu

[camus8x]

TSG looks kinda like psychatog at 0:03

[cataphracts123]

Did you talk about black?

[jussupinator]

no synergy in green? i drafted a mono green spiders deck yeasterday and it was just insane. but otherwise its just bad then

[mr1nsanity]

Venser+Stonehorn=Win game

[emangamer1]

@mr1nsanity Cuz verser it totally limited

[Gearsmeister]

OMG wow yall should use the intro for every video!

Eldrazi Conscription

[Voltron1774]

the laugh was awesome!

[anaxkoraz]

What is this C/F Polos, please start to sell those.

[Chase99999]

Thanks to that intro I can't have nice dreams anymore.

[PoketoMtg]

Red has flexability W/U/B/G, White loves G/U/R, Blue works R/B/W, Green is limited with R/W/g, Black is strong R/U/g

It's a strong format but green has it's weakness compared to other colors.

[Felkums]

I drafted mono green at a recent draft, and went 2-1. I was able to pick up very late plummets that I actually main decked, and I was surprised how good Vastwood Gorger was.

[DakotaDonaldClark]

While Luis was talking about the 4-mana 5/5, he forgot to mention the "unblockable" 3/3 for 2 mana! :) card's insane.

[DJBranden]

jeese, evil intro

[ChroniclesOfMatt]

Best. Intro. Ever.

[supererunnocaos]

Tristan shaun gregson... proud owner of the creepiest laugh in magic

[joshywashy58]
