Explaining the Magic Color Pie and What All Colors Are Good At

I have allways been a green guy. But i love the explenation here.

no wayyyyy

Greens role in the wheel is stealing the entiriry of said color wheel for itself.

Blue is the best

You can have extra turn with seedtime in green

I play blue on the magic app because cyber bullying is much easier to get away with than bullying in person

White is very good at not drawing cards

Years of incompetent designers have rendered the color pie basically meaningless. Change my mind.

Blue: scinece, logic, knowledge, introspection, and perfection

Aka: the only things that actually matter if applied truly perfectly
Logic mixed with the rest is inherently the best of all worlds,
Btw logic is litterally putting 2 and 2 together but for all things, and when done perfectly everything becomes perfect

Although the cards don't reflect that perfectly,

Logically a person who embodies blue would use all colors because of blue's imperfections to put it simply.

My mono white deck has literally been called degenerate because it does everything that people don't want mono white to do like counterspells and also land destruction lot of land destruction also board wipes and it just random stuff like winter ord while having smothering tithe on the table. or you know and I also have hokori dust drinker. My magic deck is basically designed to make everybody at the table have a terrible time. In fact my absolute favorite mono white card is actually called silence because somebody can think they're doing something and then you can just shut them down for an entire turn. But the counter spells I run and my white deck are Dawn charm and rebuff the wicked I believe. And when all hell breaks loose I'm the guy who has the World Slayer just waiting to devastate the whole table. And guess who I put it on I put it on the soltari visionary because he's got shadow" only creatures with Shadow can block creatures with shadow and when he lands an attack he automatically destroys an enchantment... I'm a bad man...😂😂😂 I also run lotus field because it's indestructible land I believe it gives you three mana at once but you have to wait a turn to use it or something like that. And don't get me started on a Emeria the sky ruin, that card has save the bacon a few times.
I've actually been criticized about not having a straight-up mono white deck because I have a lot of artifacts in it too.

That was very comprehensive. A few pointers though, green isn't the color second best at counter magic, as that title belongs to white. Green, if anything, is the best at making their spells as uncounterable as possible and goes the furthest to punish the opponent for trying or doing so.

HIRUMA????

"Black sees nature as an inconvenience at best." 💀

As a simic player. The knowledge i learned from this video makes me very sad 😭

dark ritual is a black card

Red: punch, punch again, i make my punch punchier

what about colorless?

"blue gets the worst statted creatures". Coughs in murktide regent

Dog you have 3 channels apparently? Love the content!

White: lose
Blue: no u
Red: now
Black: die
Green: big

Card games suack ❤❤ this days

Card games suck this days.

How do you take the collective too far and be evil?

Oh god I clicked on this thinking it was a random magic video
And got absolutely whiplashed when duellogs started talking. Thought I pressed the wrong video

Appolonian colors:
White - Map, Christ, Rousseau, Rawls
Black - Territory, Nietzsche, de Sade, Machiavelli

Dionisian colors:
Red - early Romanticism, Sturm und Drang, (abstract impressionist) painting, Caspar David Friedrich
Green - Myth, mystery cults, excitatory gnosis, classical greek theatre, Aeschylus
Blue - Classicism, Augustan Age, Decorum, (metaphysical) poetry, Alexander Pope

Great work on this video and thanks for the info! Really puts things into a nice perspective for me, as I'm new to MTG.

Alright, so the colours are defined as the different places in which one can find good?
White = Order
Black = Use
Blue = Knowledge
Red = Freedom
Green = Nature

You may have forgotten the Independence side of White, most people who play it have no friends.

White should get counterspells

Now a days FYI black also gets a mana ramp instant card that came in the Warhammer 40k set of precons

As a returning player this is so helpful thankyouthankyouthankyouuuu

The OG poster has to run his dialogue through a spell checker before he publishes as together is not spelled as togetether and regardless is not spelled as regarldess.

This is the third time I’ve clicked on a new channel and it’s you lol

Green black token spam pinger deck go brrrrt

There's a reason why Izzet is best guild. nods nods

If you think green sucks at removal then youre not playing mtg. That 8‐6 dino with trample you just cheated in gets to "fight" a creature the opp controls. Thats removal. Green has trample. Thats removal. Green gets counters and has numerous interactions. Dude you play elves just admit it. Ya boi is "B-I-A-S-E-D" . 😂😂😂

blue can totally bounce lands, see sunder

white is also a counterspell color, just not to extent blue is. dawn charm, lapse of certinty,mana tithe, illumination, and reprive just to name a few

i don't see life costs as a downside in black. it gives you access to a resource that other colors typically can't use

Mono black is so formidable because its strengths negate its own weaknesses. Spells require you to lose life? You can replenish it with life drain. Spells require you to discard? Discard your creatures, then bring them to the battlefield from your graveyard.

One detail I feel slipped from notice here is another trait of white-black; punishing rules. Combining white’s rule cards with black’s ambition and individualism, you create cards that, rather than putting both players under a restriction, force the opponent to “pay” the white-black player(I.e. smothering tithe).

This is an important part of white-black’s identity, enough that the phrase “death and taxes” exists to describe these kinds of decks.

Every mono player (in a nutshell):

Red: Fast damage speed speed speed more speed hurry hurry speed damage
Black: Everything must suffer in pain
Green: Me dumb, me love stomping
Blue: We love it when people listen to long explanations of our combos
White: The starting life is too low, I want more

Black has Dark Ritual though...???

Red is not the 'only' color for ritual spells.
Black does it a lot and blacks ritual carda are older then reds.
See Dark Ritual for example.

I think the colors also can go with your personality, which will affect your "play style". I didn't know I needed this video. Thanks for sharing.

Can we all agree Blue is overpowered bullshit color?
