Forcing Good Players to Play Bad Decks

Cardmarket - Magic

Carl, Thoralf, Jamin and Fele were each given the task to make a deck that was terrible, but not bad enough that they could not win with it themselves in a game of 1v1 paper magic.

Decklists and how Thoralf's deck wins: https://bit.ly/45FkbLo

This is probably a top 3 video you guys have ever made. Thoralf's insane 43-minute explainer, the absolute belly laugh when Jamin revealed his strategy of just submitting 60 islands, and the subsequent even harder laugh when it actually wins because Carl's strategy was pretty genius. One for the ages

I love how Carl and Thoralf basically defeated each other without even playing against each other.

Carl using what he learned from his match against his and Toralf’s childhood decks to make a deck where only he would have the restraint and knowledge to win is probably the single greatest instance of “play to your strengths” I have ever seen in my life

60 Islands beat Turbo Fog... now I've seen everything in Magic.

I think we should get a bonus game of Thoralf playing his deck. For science

I want two things:
1. Thoralf playing his deck;
2. Thoralf building decks FOR EVERYBODY!

I love how Jamin built a deck that was guaranteed to lose and somehow not only got the deck, but also managed to win with the unwinnable deck.

i love that this channel does things like this with 60 card constructed. its such a rare overlap to have both a silly gimmick and a nice 1v1

Jamin: brings 60 islands thinking it would be impossible to lose against it 75% of the time
Jamin: gets his own deck
Jamin: wins with his own deck

crazy how jamin made a useless deck took the 75% gamble lost the gamble but still won the game thanks to carl's bait cards truly a main character moment

Carls deck is such an insane mindplay imo.

Honeypotting your friends into decking themselves is a devious trap, AND THiS IS THE SECOND TIME Carl made thoralf deck himself while they were playing bad (or old) decks

I love how Carl and Thoralf knew exactly who made each other's deck

Tbh i don't know what is more hilarious. Submitting a 60-islands-deck, beeing unlucky to play it yourself... or actually winning with it.

Thoralf’s puzzle is a work of art and will be on a museum one day

I like Jamin’s dedication of sticking to just one Island design.

@BoundlessxArts 3 months ago

I think jamin didn't understand the mission, as he's built a deck with the 60 most broken cards in magic. So of course he won

I love how all four of them approached this from different angles. A meme win con, a theoretically unwinnable 60 island pile, a trap, and whatever the fuck Thoralf cooked up.
