@theArcosa Жыл бұрын

The Mizzix's Mastery was handled a little incorrectly. Since Electrostatic Field and Urabrask are both cast triggers, they should have had their triggers resolve after the spells were all simultaneously put on the stack, BEFORE anything resolved. In addition, the Cathartic Reunion should have had its costs paid upon putting the spell on the stack (not after the Reverberate resolution), meaning the cards drawn from the copy of Cathartic Reunion can't be discarded to pay the additional cost.

Good point! Thanks for the notes, was trying to do it in a faster / cleaner way but we should properly represent all of those rules

It didn't really matter at the end, but be mindful of how you handle Storm guys. Spells with Storm copy themselves on cast, not when they resolve, so the counter should have been lower for at least one of them.

I will say that they upped strom count but still did the correct amount of damage, as they counted the original spell as a copy so they upped to strom 14 and did 14 damage

@shawnpanzegraf5642 2 ай бұрын

I appreciate he knew his cards really well, so there were no dithering delays in the pop-off, but that turn brought back every unpleasant memory I have of playing Type I competitively. A lot of interesting looking decks on display. Was surprised that Sheoldred didn’t end up running area with it like everyone else. I did, however, learn there are in fact worse things out there than the Orzhov Removal-Piles-with-some-Vampires my little Green heart curses so often on Fridays, so thanks for that horrifying glimpse of Worse! ;)

@fablerh2476 Жыл бұрын

Totally not over too soon :D ok that was ironic. Would love to see a rematch to get a glimpse of what the other decks do. But the design of Urabrask doesn’t leave too many options to build the deck, it’s combo galore.

Minor rules quibble for Blake: you cast cathartic reunion when you resolved mizzix's mastery, not when you resolved the reunion. You should have discarded 2 upon resolution of mastery.

When someone i play with casts an Mizzix Mastery with a full graveyard, they can play until they miss a trigger or make a mistake. If they do so they have to end their turn. So everybody has to watch what is happening and is still excited to spot a Mistake. Usually when Mizzix Mastery is cast it has a big impact, but nobody wants to resolve the stack or watch what happens.
