    I'm the Vannifar opponent! 😂 I knew I'd make the video if I didn't concede too early
  • @soybomb777
    Glad they made a commander to help out the obscure creature type, elves. They really needed a leg up /s
  • @soybomb777
    When the hell queue is full, the busted commanders will walk among us

    Has power creep gone too far? Yes, some time ago. There can never be a medium speed, resilient creature deck because it gets stomped by Voja and the other OP cards. You can't play Voja in a clever way because why not just have elves and win on the first swing? You could make a wolf deck, but why? And why is it an attack trigger rather than a damage trigger? Voja has trample and ward, make them wait a turn for the insane buffs. When cards are this OP (and Voja is hardly the most OP thing out there) there's very little room for innovation and lots of potentially interesting strategies are invalidated. When the good cards are incredibly good, you can't play medium cards and hope to win on synergy or clever angles of attack.
  • @drejerm7856
    The gideon deck just running every taxes card is a vibe
  • @MrPcconway
    Poor Gideon opponent. Just sat around and watch you go off, only to play the gearhulk....then still lose.
  • @c.alexander4199
    Playing against Voja is pretty miserable. You need to load up on board wipes.
  • @Tate56565656
    LVD HISTORIC BRAWL RRRRRAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH FINALLY
  • @KiuhKobold
    It's always Voja, or the elves, or Craterhoof, or the Elves, or Nissa, or the elves!!
  • @CyberBuster93
    This deck is pure G A S 🔥🔥🔥 But I do understand the feeling of helplessness against this deck. I just wish there was a real queue you can do for brawl that let's you play with other opponents who have objectivity strong as hell commanders and one queue for the more silly and wonky commanders, you know? Appreciate all you do Luca!!!! 😊
  • @davestier6247
    Lol, check out the new spoiler for a 4 mana green creature. It is a 6/5 trample with more text.
  • I know it's an Arena-only card, but Marwyn's Kindred would also be a really strong option here, playing Voja on turn 3, then getting an extra two or three elves out turn four, one of them being another Marwyn! And that's just if you're rushing it out, you could probably get a really nice horde if you got it a bit later!
  • @noahg9397
    I just realized voja is Tolsimir’s wolf
  • @trashcans911
    Love the vids! Also would you consider The Ozolith in this list? I feel that with your commander and other cards generating so many +1 counters it could shine in this list.
  • @scarletanguish
    Wizards are making sure that this game is as unplayable as possible huh.
  • @BombusTobi
    I would love to see you play the Gitrog Monster in brawl i love this deck so much ❤
  • -68 life, if only you had attacked with Paradise Druid at the beginning of the Vannifar game
