Calls deck consistent.. builds around a two-of.. doesn't see planeswalker wincons until the last twenty Cards.. survives bc opponent durdles just as hard.. seems legit.

... And never sees any of his non-support cards. This is roughly equivalent to beating an aura deck that lost with a handful of auras, but never saw a creature. (In 13 ? Turns...)

Btw, OP... That deck needs a bunch more two drops IMO. Or you need to play your 2/4 drop card (forget the name) whether you get full value or not. You lost because you never pressured him, at all. Either go midrange, or go early game... You can't do both. P.s.: your other two decks looked pretty good IMO.

Pp.s.: don't slow play a slower deck. You were the beatdown the entire game, and you let yourself think you needed to be conservative.

His Jund deck certainly looked solid.

Thanks for the advice man. I will certainly try some changes. The 2/4 (can't be remember the name either ;) ) should indeed be an auto-include, but I don't like auto-includes... :D It's true that the deck starts running on three/four mana and there are few 2drop creatures. Two mana costs are usually the control cards in this deck. I'll probably let the telepath go. I like to play it, cause it's funny... But it isn't always consistent. But I guess all my decks will be getting a revamp soon with BFZ.

I was totally aware of the beatdown. I just didn't see a solution in those circumstances...
Once again, thx for the advice, appreciate it!

His Jund deck certainly looked solid.


Thx Beast! Fun to play it too! :)

Sorry about this, but I just accidentally gave you bad advice... The 2/4 card I was talking about was Harbinger of the Tides. As in 2/4 CMC. AND what I meant is that you shouldn't be afraid to use him to pressure your opponent.

He's not auto anything, but he was in your deck and in your hand. Against that Hakeem deck he was a bear. Kill Hakeem with your bear bro, kill him good. Lol

Btw... I don't think you win the match in any case, but you still have to try.

Ah ok... I thought you meant the 2/4 lifelinker. Yeah, I know, I should've used my creatures right away instead of waiting to get maximum value out of it...

Almost a year and a half later, it was fun to watch this again.
Short after this video, it was the very first tournament, The Hakumite! :) The fun thing in this video is that in the second game I played my deck that I would play in that tournament an Hakeem played his.

Still miss Hakeem's channel though... Hope he'll come back one day.
And where the hell is Megabeast?

Beast got banned, and yet chiang remains unbanned, the moderating system can be a bit bizarre at times.

Case in point the swear filter around here, It's a lottery of what is censored and what is fine haha

Why would Chiang be banned? He's never even come close to breaking code of conduct. If being annoying is a bannable offence then why are Gem and I still here?

Mackey, I miss Hakeem's channel too :(

Beast got banned? Why? I know he can be straight forward and says his thing... but it seems unfair to me.

Idk, I kinda look at it from how much people contribute to the forum, Chiang has literally never done anything other then flame duels and make off topic posts, sure beast could go off at times but he was one of the biggest contributers, both in the deck list threads and the discussion places and we're a lot worse off now that he's banned.

But hell I'm not trying to start a revolution or anything, just a shame we lost someone who started a lot of conversations and wasn't afraid to call a spade a spade.
