I love the content, you've inspired me to get into modern playing yawg. I wanted to ask what about insidious roots you don't like?

Super glad to hear that! 🙏🕺So myself and others have playtested the card and it just doesn't do enough unfortunately. Every time I cast the card, I was already in a winning position or felt like I didn't need the card. It definitely has potential, but not in this build of Yawg imo.

Game 3 vs Amulet (round 2) you had letal by simply tutoring immediately wolf. Even without that you had a lot of better plays: sacrificing Wall as first creature makes no sense in case you draw Chord/Mite/Boseiju; otherwise after all the saccing you could have played wall and chorded for Mite, and thanks to wall you could have activated it in upkeep to exile the saga, gain 3 and deal 1 damage.

Its true that I shouldn't have sacced wall first, my mistake. But I didn't have lethal by chording for young wolf on my turn. I have a maximum of 8-9 damage if I completely sac YW and the rest of my board, putting them to 5-4. I understand Amulet lines pretty well and I was quite confident that we couldn't die there based on the lands they searched for, esp. after seeing Stronghold and not Battlements. I could've gotten a mite and considered that, but I was valuing my chord for more than a mite as they had another saga anyways. Without chord, our board state is very sparse with sac targets for yawg. I wanted to risk it to be able to untap with hapatra on my turn to win.

Winning first 4 matches then losing only last match vs mirror (the only one), nice ! You are the only yawg pro i have seen so far on YT (dingo is pretty good at it but not quite there yet), ty for the vids and the knowledge passed over ! Seems like testing insidious roots in yawg shells is over ?

Thank you! 🕺🙏 I think some people are still testing with roots, but it ultimately doesn't fit too well with the current build of the deck. Roots works a lot better in Asmo/cookbook shells

1:23:11 I liked chording for mite preconat so you can clear the dwarf with yawg then clear the wrenn

Wrenn wasn't that big of a concern for me at that point. I wanted them to make the first move on my mite before snapping it off to get my yawg back

53:27 before they search their library with 2nd titan wouldnt it have been better here to chord for x=1 get young wolf and try to hit a force of vigor here to destroy the amulet?

Not really. I'm quite familiar with titan lines and was fairly confident that they couldn't kill us here unless they had fetched Hanweir Battlements. If they did, then maybe I would've gone for it, but after I saw Stronghold I knew we were fine🕺

Most decks seem to have interaction for, at the least, your first creature to hit the board (thanks, ragavan). That being said, do we not value delighted halflings additional text over gilded goose? I was just wondering if it shouldn't be played second in most situations to help guarantee a resolved grist or yawg early against the blue decks. I dont play yawg, so I might just not know the correct play patterns. Just an observation...
@meatmtg

Good question! I actually like playing the halfling there to have the highest upside. Playing the goose first is safer to draw out a removal spell (and hope they don't have another), but in the off-chance that our T1 mana dork does live, Halfling is going to give us the most mileage. Meaning we can tap it for mana multiple turns in a row where Goose can't do that.

At kzitem.info/news/bejne/urB61Id_p6Z5f6wsi=vfbZ43PcqxRM3pNk&t=2929 what about playing wall and chording for haywire mite main phase, then exiling the 2 counter saga in their upkeep?

The unfortunate side of watching the stream live/vods. You’re much less excited about the new posts
