I enjoyed this final more than any other I have seen in the history of magic: Technicians doing 1000010 life for fun? Tamada going yolo and keeping a 0 land hand? Takimura having won and asked what he wants now says I want to go to my wife? This is the spirit. Above all MtG is a game and should be fun even at this level. A lesson for some tight up and pretentious other pros out there

+raitosureya01 the duals ? i think they play a huuge role in the current standard
@raitosureya8 жыл бұрын
XHeadhunter66 as a generalization, the dual lands/fetches/ shocks, etc. are a staple in any multicolor deck. the enemy colored manlands did help but they made up a small part of the deck compared to the khans block portion of the deck.
@royaltarts60658 жыл бұрын
+raitosureya01 I think the point was that a huge huge impact that BFZ has was introducing these fetchable lands which allowed for all these insane multi-color decks. If this was still khans block you couldn't get away with playing jeskai charm and crackling doom in the same deck.

Little rules question: how is it possible that disdainful stroke counters Hangarbackwalker on X=2? I always thought that for the cmc of a card X is always 0.
@asdasdasdafa4 жыл бұрын
X is treated as zero while it's not on the stack, and when it is, X is the mana spent to cast it, in this case 4 and thus valid for Disfainful Stroke
