@@chessazertyarno We tried it before! But it was too difficult/expensive to find viewers to participate without restricting the participants to only germany
Good grief what a match, especially the last game. The combo deck combos twice, had a life total over 100, nearly decked out, and still had to worry about the clock from Murktide. And of course the whole thing is being played through by two of the nicest and most talented Magic content creators and accompanied by the channel’s typical high production quality. Bravo Andrea and the lucky viewer, well played Carl, thank you again Cardmarket.
I rarely comment but this was an awesome video. Things I love in this video: - chemistry between Andrea and Carl - them having lots of fun - competitive budget decks - very close game 3 - Adrea comboing off twice on the same game - the editing with the triggers helpers sliding in and out, the animations on the scrys and expressive iteration hits (especially the fetch) Congrats guys, this is Magic content at its peak: friendship, gameplay, ambiant, vulgarisation for newer players, production and editing.
Thank you for making an exception from your usual silence for such a kind comment :) I put a lot of work into this one! And Andrea is always such a gem to have on
@@CardmarketMagic The work really shows, Carl, congrats ! BTW I use the Newpipe app instead of the KRplus app to watch videos without the ads, which doesn't allow to leave comments, that's why it takes more effort to connect to my youtube account. But don't worry, even if I don't watch the ads (are there ads on your videos? I'm not even sure), the amount of cards I buy on cardmarket is large enough that I don't feel about this 😛. Le bonjour de France et bon week end !
Bonjour bonjour! There are ads because it's youtube but we don't care if you watch them :) as long as you are having fun with the game and enjoying our work, I encourage you to keep saving those minutes of your life by skipping the ads ;) they do add up
I love the way these videos are edited. Especially when the game is put on pause for the pilots to explain their logic behind certain moves makes me feel like I’m becoming a better magic player. Phenomenal job as always.
Shout out to your video editor(s). That match had a lot going on, but it never felt like it was dragging nor did I feel like I missed any gameplay. And there was enough banter between the players to keep it light and fun, but, again, without slowing things down. Excellent work all around. And very much appreciated.
It's just me (Carl) but thank you :) I put a lot of work into this video! :D I knew this game was good after playing it but it was also a complicated one so Andrea had said that the pacing should be really fast, he was right 👍
Usually I see Zuran Orb in land recursion decks which makes sense, you're not really losing value from it. I'm honestly amazed it's so effective in a deck with no land recursion whatsoever
I love vibe check decks! And I think UR Murktide is one of them. The Amalia deck seems to have the same potential. Truth be told it didn't seem all that bad when the Sandsteppe Citadels came in, but there is definitely space for improvement on those. But the rest of the deck seems really good!
Well, the land base of many decks is their most expensive part. Surely, cards like Ragavan or Sheoldred spike over the price tag of lands, but often those decks are so expensive due to price tags like 15-30 € per land (for fetches and shocks), depending on the color.
@@Lordmuhkuh23 yeah exactly! That's why I love these challenges. You see really well thought out lists, that perform despite choosing to play significantly more inconvenient pieces. I take my hat off to these genius people!
I love all the videos you guys make, but this type of video always really gets me excited. I will drop everything to watch these. Keep up the good work guys
I remeber back in the day in the Inquest magazine you had card lists in the back and some cards had a little description. Zuran Orbs was: evil, evil, evil! Love seeing the card being relevant and "evil" again :)
It's probably been said a thousand times already, but I love how you display everything on screen and that you guys always take the time to explain what is happening. Awesome content as always. Last but not least, forza Mengu! ❤
Depends on the combo deck. Murktide is historically bad against Amulet Titan, Yawgmoth combo, and 5c creativity. It is good against decks like Tron because they don’t really start the game until turn 3.
Feels like everybody is saying nice things about Andrea and Carl, wich they totally deseve, but no one is praising what an AMAZING decktech Daniel has made with this list for Amalia. Great work, Daniel!
Daniel's deck was truly 11/10 👌 I lost to it and still was amazed by some of the deckbuikdinf choices :) thank you for taking the time to shout them out
19:00 - Yoooo!!! Did anyone else catch that?! This is why magic pros are half poker face all the time. Andrea was was basically cold to his hierarch dying here having no source of black 🖤 and two Amalias in hand. But he double bluffs Carl by describing exactly the situation he's in and Carl doesn't buy it. Idk many other people that would've been able to get out of that spot. That is was def the match right there
I love how Carl in detail explains every card in the Murktide deck to the player who's known for playing a lot of murktide. (Yeah I know it's just for the viewers)
4 main deck Blossoming Calm huh? I'm sorry Daniel, clearly a red mage has hurt you in the past and I hope you're doing better now. Cool deck. Shoutout to Andrea piloting that as well, a lot of the cutout exploring stuff and planning the game out after the first wrath seemed intense!
14:30 Couldn't he have cast the Amelia from his yard using the Case and then cast a Tamiyo's safekeeping, gaining 2 life and starting the chain? Wouldn't have won on the spot, but it would've given him a ton of value.
I thought this too, but Carl has the Engineered Explosives at the ready, and Andrea could have only used one of the 2 Safekeepings in his hand if he went that line

imagine what will it be to play magic when we got holograms and stuff like that!

So did the other deck win technically?
@@necrow4155Yeah, the dirty lifegain loop won.
now *this* is podracing!
always a pleasure to have andrea around. Would be fun if Carl took more of a villain vibe here :D
🤠 I am incapable of being mean to Andrea, he's just such a sweetheart
@@CardmarketMagic quite understandable :D
@@CardmarketMagic DId hear an 'idiot' at 27:52 tho /s
@jaundicedmisanthrope7817 haha no that's "eighty eight"
In this role, Carl should definitely play the villain XD
Also, I miss Mengu
Zuran Orb is incredible in this deck. Such a cool way to give it redundancy that the Pioneer deck doesn’t have
My favorite part of the channel is when Carl says a sentence so long that he runs out of breath at the end ❤

Back in high school my CS teacher introduced the stack data structure with "Who here has played Magic the Gathering™️?"

He's a staple guest on this channel, there's a bunch of videos featuring him. Check them out.

They honestly are great
me too

I love these budget versus episodes, it's fun seeing what's lurking below the surface of big formats! Please keep them coming!
@21:02 Mengucci flipping the bird.
The Pro-player of the People. Having him pilot the deck of the people is really the way to go.
I love the way these videos are edited. Especially when the game is put on pause for the pilots to explain their logic behind certain moves makes me feel like I’m becoming a better magic player. Phenomenal job as always.
Thank you :)
Hell yeah Modern with Mengu! Love when Mengu's on the channel!
Love to see Andrea playing paper. He's very charismatic, and he's a great fit for the channel when he's available.

@@CardmarketMagic I'll Double on the above comment you did a great Job on the pacing things were always engaging and interesting the speed def helped.
Andrea: "I gain 69 life..."
Carl: "Nice."
Carl and Andrea are the most chill combination. There is an overload of happiness in their presence.
"Peanut butter & wait sandwich" was solid gold
Timestamp?

Listen, i'm as obsessed with andrea as the next viewer, but this episode was something incredible. really special stuff, all around :)
any video with Mengu is a watch. "While on the stack" has got to be the most triggering phrase in this video haha
Well done andrea !!! And well done to the viewer who sent the deck, it was really well constructed to have beaten such a strong opposition :)

Sacrifice every last land you have is such a power move. Really cool way of winning the game!
hell yeah, more paper constructed! this is what I live for
I almost exclusively play commander, but I love watching your pioneer/modern gameplay! And any video with Andrea is bound to be good.
Your editor (editors?) Deserve a raise - your channel's visual formatting for magic games is exponentially better than anything else online.
It's just me Carl but thank you :) I've been making these gameplay videos for years now, I like to think I've gotten pretty good at them
4:23 hey… I saw this combo on Against the odds.
It's also been a pretty serious Pioneer deck for the last few months :)
The on screen graphics were so nice and helpful to watch the gameplay. Great job!!
i'm soooooo glad how that panned out. i was on the edge of my seat!!
I love all the videos you guys make, but this type of video always really gets me excited. I will drop everything to watch these. Keep up the good work guys
Shoutouts to Andrea's Detective Conan comparison
This made me want to play modern again. Please show us more pros playing budget brews vs tier 1 decks!
Let’s all appreciate that Andrea started his game winning combo on 69 life
Truly, if ever it was needed, that is evidence that he is, indeed, the Nicest guy.
I remeber back in the day in the Inquest magazine you had card lists in the back and some cards had a little description. Zuran Orbs was: evil, evil, evil! Love seeing the card being relevant and "evil" again :)
This was kind of entertaining. Sans the Ravagan, it reminded me of "old school" Modern.
Nice vid!
Love seeing Mengu everytime you guys have him on, he works with your guys vibes really well and always seems like he's having fun :)
That was some truly terrifying strategizing on both of your parts, my god! Well done!
That budget deck was so cool. I think it’s a great idea having Andrea play the budget deck as well. Idk who else could’ve played it that cleanly.
Both the gameplay and banter was on point in this one, one of my favorite videos in recent memory, and I don't mean just from this channel.
I was torn, cause I love watching Carl win, but Mengu was the underdog (which is a hilarious thought)
I love that Carl called that it was a creature combo deck. Awesome video!
AHHH ANDREA IS BACK FOR ANOTHER MODERN VEEDEO!!!! I’m so excited for the best pauper deck ever series
A Cardmarket's video with Mengu is always a must watch video🔥🔥
Aaaaaaaaaa this was so good! So many amazing moments and so many amazingly talented people on the team!
that was absolutely sick lol! great video and editing as always
This is one of my favorite videos yet. Idk why but it just hits the spot seeing my two favorite decks abuse each other
Excited to see some cool modern gameplay!
Always a pleasure to see Mengu pilot these decks 🙌🏽
Two Unholy Heat was seriously glued to Carl’s hand literally every game.
It's probably been said a thousand times already, but I love how you display everything on screen and that you guys always take the time to explain what is happening. Awesome content as always.
Last but not least, forza Mengu! ❤
Such a great idea!
Cool deck but funny to see a combo deck against murktide! I haven't seen the ending but I feel like Murktide feasts on combo decks!
Depends on the combo deck. Murktide is historically bad against Amulet Titan, Yawgmoth combo, and 5c creativity. It is good against decks like Tron because they don’t really start the game until turn 3.
A budget versus epsiode that doesn't feel ridiculously unmatched is a hard thing to achieve. Props to Daniel and Andrea, really cool to watch.
Andrea Mengucci, the man who is involved in every infinite/+100 life game on this channel
@30:31 That was important. Thank you.
this is a really great video format you should do more of these for sure
Best magic channel out there. Keep up the awesome work❤
Fantastic video! What a fun deck. Congrats 🎉
You can be proud of Carl not missing that "nice", well done 😆
Third game was awesome, love the genuine experience you guys give. Great fan of Mengu
Feels like everybody is saying nice things about Andrea and Carl, wich they totally deseve, but no one is praising what an AMAZING decktech Daniel has made with this list for Amalia.

Andrea flipping the finger on Carl at 21:02 is just gold
He's not doing it purposely 😅 he just does that with his hands. It's a comment he gets on a lot of his videos
Andrea just makes me like the video in superspeed
Y’all are amazing! Keep it up guys
What a game ... what a match ... what a video ... what a channel. Real value from Carlmarket

Love the scries and itterations edit, nice production value
Babe wake up, new cardmarket video just dropped
More Mengu! More Mengu! More Mengu!
We want Mengu!
Carl's single neuron: Sherlock Holmes.
Andrea's cultured galaxy brain: Detective Conan.
It was an excellent video, you are guys are at the top of the game!
That's a cool list, enjoyed the video.
14:26 was CRUSHING! He had the Tamiyo's safekeeping in hand to gain the life to start the trigger!!!!
Except Carl could have just used unholy heat since Mengucci wouldn't be able to protect his combo

@@ILCEM-YAm I missing something? Karl needs 2 open mana to activate the Explosives, right?
@@jonaderjona5805 yes, but Amalia can't kill Carl until Andrea's next turn because she was just played, so Carl will have a turn to use the Explosives
If Andrea casts Tamiyo's safekeeping, he's tapped out and Carl can just cast Unholy Heat in response.
Great work Andrea😁
Mengu is the GOAT. The cardmarket crew is pretty awesome too. ❤
Dude what a deck!!!! Like holy shit a budget deck that can beat a deck way way higher in price is amazing
This video was just epic, well done 😂
Love these gameplay videos. Like the silly stuff, but this is what made this channel awesome in the first place
Great video! Always love seeing Andrea on the channel
Such a fun video man…second time watching it!
What a great match and fun ending
4:46 as a computer scientist, I have to say, magic stack is a stack, not a queue...
Yep. Queue is First in, first out. Stack is last in, first out.
If you end a video smiling, you know it was good
"Nice" -Andrea, upon seeing his good friend the bird lawyer hit the table
Gotta love the Aguirre card having a wrath effect on it
Really good game! Love seeing Amalia! Great card!
Mengucci is a man of the people!!! love it when you guys have him on
I loved every second of that one
Is understanding the queue queue on the stack ? haha. I love these episods
