Match 2 was awesome.

Hey Marshall, didn’t you say in one of your last drafts videos (I think it was a DGM Draft) that you want to do some Standard Videos instead of DGM in the future? What happened to that plan?

Really minor thing, but in Match 1 Game 1, when your opponent offered to trade you his Clique for your Mulldrifter, was there any real reason why you didn’t make 2 Saprolings and made Mulldrifter big enough to eat his Clique?

@Mister Miester – I think so, I’m not sure if MM will still be on when I do my video for next week yet.

@Joshua Garratt I think so, yeah ahha. I (somewhat obviously) have never actually played with Riftsweeper, nor even seen it, before Modern Masters, and I’m still figuring out the other uses for it.

@Christian No, I think I even said it on the video. I have played with it in cube once, maybe, but I was’t playing when it was legal or around in draft or Standard.

@Derilict I don’t think it’s a grizzly bear(s), but I also haven’t played it enough to know the many uses for it. Also I disagree pretty strongly with your assertion that I should use it to “get back” my Glacial Rays from Sculler.. You realize that they get shuffled back into my library right? That’s a much worse chance of getting it back than just having Sculler die eventually, and it doesn’t rob a draw step either. I think maybe I’m better off thinking of it as a bear perhaps

@Beleqwya Yes what you said.

@Leo Thanks, that was a really fun one

@George Yeah you are probably right about the Cloudskate play, I hate tempoing myself out, but for the card advantage it would be worth it. The Riftsweeper play: you just weren’t loud enough

@Dragon7284 Yeah I think the vividx are fine, but purely off-color vivids don’t excite me much.

@Jayson I agree with what you said (and what I said) about Gargadon, it’s sweet!

@Frizzell66 Thanks for the feedback and for watching, I certainly had fun with a little tap tap concede there

@Alex Thanks, I drafted another yesterday… it was sweet (had Gifts, Loam, Wurm Harvest, etc

Great content as always
I would love to see one of those dredge decks…

Great plays as always Marshall! Maybe you weren’t on top of your game with riftsweeper, but who can be an expert at playing every card.

Round 2 last game was a nailbiter – my only question there is why were you not making Thallids and attacking with them and your Goblins as well – I think it might have ended the game 1 turn sooner (but might have taken just as much time also).

Round 3 – Loved your channeling of LRR in Game 2 – mana was against you, but I think you pulled out every one of their “quotes” and plays – I think we are just dead here and tap tap concede both made me laugh out loud!

@wow
You should have watched the games if you don’t think gargadon is a good card. In the first round it fizzles test of faith multiple times and has the opponent dead on board if they tap out. I’ve sat down against one with Lightning Helix in hand while on a low life total and had only bad options. I would play it every time I’m red.

Thanks for the video’s too Marshall, there’s so little Modern Masters content around and the set is a lot of fun.
