Magic TV Top 8 of the Week: Best Green Cards

[BolognaBlaster]

Damn kids! Channel is probably the best green card ever. It's in their damn name.

[bcmaledragon]

Hmm interesting....no mention of Garruk interesting.

[MrGarruk123]

@bcmaledragon He ain't good enugh

[bcmaledragon]

@MrGarruk123 Are you serious bro? The original Garry was nutso....Play him lets say turn 4....Untap 2 lands play another creature(maybe 2) next turn give your guys all OVERRUN and swing.

[MrGarruk123]

@bcmaledragon You need to compare him the other cards on the list... He just isn't close

[bcmaledragon]

@MrGarruk123 He should of at least gotten honorable mentions I mean come on.

[xXAzotakaXx]

Really. No Channel. Wow. Kinda shocked. Gotta say.

[ScrapperTBP]

thought birds of paradise would be on here somewhere

[discblizz]

@ScrapperTBP nope, its okay mana, but not amazing...

[Lemonducky86]

Oh my god who saw Elesh Norn at $3? I'll take 30 thanks

[dybeen]

Best green card of all time is rancor.

[agedskate3000]

i want to see mirris guile and naturual selection and thrun, and  rancor in honorable mentions

[BonScott21]

I often wonder how much more fun Magic would be if the color wheel was balanced. Imagine a world where Green was competitive and White actually existed.

[dybeen]

@BonScott21

I remember when WotC did a color of week thing, and nearly every fucking designer identified with blue. So naturally they give blue every good card they come up with.

[KAOSHazmatt]

what no giant growth?

[TheMerov]

rofellos --- protean hulk.

[Ulianov465]

I got 4 fastbond and 4 glimpse of nature right before they got banned -.-

[x1AlphaWolf36]

@Ulianov465 glimpse of nature is banned?

[Ulianov465]

@x1AlphaWolf36 In Modern - I bought them for my combo elf deck.

[x1AlphaWolf36]

@Ulianov465 That sucks dude i hate when that happens but hey you can make it legacy elf combo like i do and since you have most the elves already it won't cost too much to make except for gaea's cradle. i have two gaea's cradle in my elf combo deck but if you don't have the money i would suggest only one of them.

[ABRichardDeSilva]

You missed out on Birds of Paradise, or perhaps even Berserk, you idiots.

[aSirludvig]

@ABRichardDeSilva when was the last time you saw Birds of Paradise or Berserk win you the game. Idiot

[wolfchild84]

Green Sun's Zenith needs at least an honourable mention

[gibson1789]

Protean Hulk needs to be on this list

[sprbadguy]

wow who plays magic anymore this game is so shitty

[mikenixon1]

Watching this, makes me happy. I love green.

My decks:

G/W control.

G elves.

G Beasts.

G natural order-progenitus.

G Elf vine.

G/W aggro.

G mass centaur.

[mikenixon1]

@mikenixon1 And G Dungrove Elder :D

[GodOfGamblers81690]

Plow Under : /

[GageLeeHughes]

There is a card in the tree. lol

[Mithyus]

WEB?

[WUZLE]

It's easy to overlook Green, since for years Magic only had four colors. R&D had no idea what to do with green. Thankfully, they finally pulled their heads out.

[ki11dagrunts]

Are you guys going to do multicolor?

[t4nk88]

SYLVAN LIBRARY, etc., etc....

[EMG81JSX]

Green is powerful and fast, we all know that. I'm truly surprised that one of the most versatile green cards EVER was not included on this list, and that is Garruk Wildspeaker. He is everything green needs to be, and at 4 mana to get out, he truly is the best planeswalker out of the original 5 and just a powerhouse.

[AmnesiacAnthem]

It might not be Top 8, but I love me some Rancor.

[EnlightenedTutor]

In addition to Channel, what about Golgari Grave Troll?

[Wallyworld30]

Channel and bezerk could have at least had honorable mention.

[nodhear]

Broken combo? Ban the green card! Lol.

[sourcekings]

your videos are awsome i like alot i need to get out to one of the big turrnys

[JinMAA]

Well done guys! As it turns out Green is actually a lot sweeter than I than I tend to give it credit for. Mainly because Green is apparently at it's best when used to abuse creature or land based combos rather than the usual T2 fare of just playing slightly undercosted enormous dudes with trample, and this is something I had forgotten about in recent years. So again, kudos, I have much more respect for Green as a color now than I did before watching this. And oh yeah... CHANNEL.

[Nickser89]

Top 8 Turn 1-3 Kills

[palaguin]

Much of this Green list are engine enablers. Plus, what about Rancor?

[Wedgehead123]

MATT NASS BASKETBALL SHORTS REFERENCE!

[felya420]

Channel is part of your guy's site, I heard it's good.

[Cheeshunt3r]

There is a reason green has a lot of banned cards...

[kaladost]

yeah, when you sit down and start making a list, you kinda realize green is much much deeper than red ans white, and really close to black afterall :)

[DarkManuel93]

Wild Mongrel. and Channel guys, seriusly you miss them ??

[brigandtea]

you guys should do top 8 game-changing commons

[Ballinlolz]

Living Wish > Glimpse of nature

[Lazris59]

It's funny. Green just gets shit on. I mean they get a good cards, and it's banned. Half the list is banned... that's why green sucks so much lol.

[MultaniDK]

Thanks for showing Green some love, great top 8

[MrPeebuddy]

They forgot Wild Mongrel.

[myleskreiter]

Of course, green is amazing. They've been spoon feeding Green ridiculous cards for a decade after the QQ from the first 4 years of Magic. Would love for Red to finally get some bloody attention as a control deck again. So tired of playing stupid aggro red decks.

[pleravens]

Channel isn't on the list cause they were just lazy and took someone else's list. I think if they spent more time looking through the cards Channel would at least get an HM. It is certainly better than Web ....

[Dorkdav]

Top 8 best flavor text would make a great bonus list.

[Goltermann87]

ofc greens good ppl! thats why tropical island is the second most expensive dual land behind undergroud sea.

[Lazris59]

@Goltermann87 that's because blue splashes green... for tarmogoyf lol they even said so.

[dragondominatorX]

why channel is not on the list?

[riader0]

Moar TSG drafts plox

[jlong5795]

Hmm top 8 Artifacts? What's left, Gold/Multicolored cards and Lands? Gold would be a challenge...

[pbisbad]

UNBAN SURVIVALLLL

[danbaker90]

wow, a top 8 artifacts? how bout a top 30 artifacts? the first 10 are moxes...

[theonlyfatman9908]

top 8 lands

[OrzhovScion]

Channel sucks.

Someone had to say it

[modnarsarhp]

Wow, no Channel. To be honest i would disclude Regrowth too... but , Birds of Paradise? Dude that was such a standard for many decks, greatest 1-drop mana accelerator for green, and i can't count how many times that 0/1 flyer did that last point of damage to win the game. I can see why Oath of Druids might be on the top 8, but so high? Maybe I'm blind but i think Birds should be on the list, Oath either off, or lower, difinitely not a "green" card in any sense of the word.

[valakin]

@modnarsarhp The answer to this is simple. LSV hates green. As green isn't blue and as commented elsewhere on the tubes "Richard Garfield was being beaten up by trees until some dolphins came and saved him and that's why green sucks and blue is so much better." or something to that extent.

[elementalkirby]

hahahaha matt nass

[TheEmperorGulcasa]

web outranked rancor?

[donotfeedthetroll]

top 8 worst cards of all time

[DariusKnightshade]

i came subscribed to see match plays and drafts and since they are no longer on here then no reason for me to Sub the channel

[Zautillo]

@DariusKnightshade go put that comment up your ass, so we don't have to look at it please!!!? thanks

[GestapoAnon]

@DariusKnightshade They don't give a shit if you're subscribed to their Youtube channel, they're phasing out their Youtube channel in favour of the video player on their own site.

[HighlanderGames98]

@DariusKnightshade Bye, bye.....

[MATTierial]

Did they even talk about channel when making this list? It was the original green combo card...

[HumbertVzla]

What about Aluren ............ ?

[Nabby111]

"We'd like to formally apologize to the color green."

Lol.

[jairomy]

I'm surprised Regrowth didn't make the top 8?? It has been restricted forever no?

[magemerl]

Eternal Witness?

[fireworks1792]

WOOT BEST GREEN CARD IS wuh... a blue card?

[neonmix89]

[psmity333]

[emrice77]

[Gregandthensome]

I'm surprised that Regrowth didn't make the list, that card has been banned/restricted forever

[PoketoMtg]

[ModeLTU]

I think channel being #0 goes without saying

[U579]

Top 8 Brown Cads

[AaronTheStrange]

Exploration?!



[7ropz]

@AaronTheStrange fastbond is way superior to exploration

[breaksheeps]

tsg doesnt wear jerseys during playoff hockey!

[therealbabo]

matt nass, fresh off the court

[Jukren54]

channel?

[NoSmiths]

Don't worry guys, Channel was obviously the secret 0st best card on the list. It transcends the list. It is above it.

[Theiammadmad]

@NoSmiths People forgot about channel because it was the first true combo deck and it was look down up on to play that deck. very look down.

[funkyfritter]

I was surprised to see that even eternal witness didn't make the cut. Green does have a lot more power then people give it credit for in older sets.

[theandwellman]

cao ni ma

[chaosof99]

Neither Food Chain nor Channel made the Top 8?

[Mrcanking]

Chub Toad.

[BigNacho]

You left out your website's namesake.

[TheEmperorGulcasa]

Channel doesn't make the cut?

[SMGstring]

So would you say LSV has made an Oath to give green the respect it deserves?

[Klugen]

lol apologizing to the color green... classic

[DJBranden]

What is my favorite green card? Exploration!!!!

[MaliciousIntent83]

WE WANT HOCKEY JERSEYS TSG FFS!

[Bommelification]
