Modern gameplay videos demonstrating many decks on MTGO

Coverage of Magic gameplay can be difficult to follow, so images of cards used are sometimes overlaid. This channel uses that technique to explain a version of Commander that is more competitive than the typical game.

Dev is a tireless brewer focused on Standard decks, predominantly budget-friendly builds that can be assembled for just $30-60. He doesn't show actual gameplay, but his coverage of the decks makes it clear that a whole lot of Magic goes into these lists.

Rudy is the owner of a Magic card business that has dealt in both singles and sealed boxes for several years, and now operates a quasi-wholesale community via Patreon. His comprehension of the secondary market is encyclopedic, and his background in finance helps him speculate about phenomena that Magic is experiencing as cards on the reserved list transition into hardcore securities.

Rudy's rants are compassionate yet full of witty barbs, cocky references, and advice so sincere it is almost dire. He seems brash but is also a small-town family man who loves his viewers, customers, and everyone in the Magic and YouTube world.

Travis is a gifted Pro Tour grinder whose prolific videos exposit a lifestyle inspired by the intellectual reflection of the life-coaching community and a Californian sense of wonder.

Travis' videos are unedited but his delivery is polished and easy to follow. His unfailing focus and discipline illustrate one path to success in competitive Magic; his cultivation of awkward memes on Facebook show the path to failure.

Nathan Holt and Shawn Kornhauser set the bar high for event coverage, combining lovely locale deets, pithy quotes about complex gameplay topics, character-driven recaps of key matches, and wonky deadpan humor.

Their work was blessed by publication on Magic's official YouTube channel, and its impact on developing the approachability and virtual intimacy of the pro community probably can't be overstated.

The Rhino is a young man whose videos do an excellent job at packing complex details into digestible packages. For instance, the way he evaluates cards is succinct yet specific, unlike some analysts who repeat obvious information.

With a goal of being a teacher that young mages of all ages can relate to without intimidation, the father-son team behind this channel manage it as a principal part of their home-schooling. It is one to watch!
