@@graog123 last one is in graveyard, so there's nothing left in deck

He already had revolt from the lembas sac pre-draw, could have pushed both of the other players creatures.

@@moshman989 For Revolt you have to control the permanent leaving the battlefield.

@@moshman989revolt should only trigger on permanents you control, the lembas was the opponent controlled artifact

guess you were a pretty bad player, since it's an obvious play

You should play magic

Specifically mill.

It helps to get paid for it lmao

@@corpsefoot758 awwww yes, the dream 😂 my wife might finally endorse my addiction instead of loving me in spite of.

nah, with Jace and drown in the loch as two of the best cards in the deck, leyline would hurt more than help

Leyline of the Void doesn't work against Nexus of Fate unless the opponent makes a mistake. When it would go to the graveyard, there are two replacement effects (exile and shuffle) and if they apply the shuffle one first, it goes back into the library like normal. They would have to either choose to let it be exiled or have Auto Choose Replacement Effects turned on and it make the wrong choice for them.

Those aren't even the main concern. Breach Storm and Dredge Zombies is pretty popular right now. Going to see a lot of Breach Storm now that there have been a few videos about it and it won a tourney...this deck just turns their combo into turbo drive unless you hit all their Breaches. I love mill, but yeah you need to main deck some sort of graveyard hate to make this deck competitive.

Am I missing something? It has to go from the battlefield to the graveyard to shuffle. They only had that one last turn to close out the game. They didn't have indefinite protection.

@@TsahayluFa I was trying to figure that out, too... I don't think there was any way for the opponent to win. The opponent had zero cards in their deck, it was their second main phase, and we had only seen Ugin the Spirit Dragon as a way to deal direct damage with Crim at 4 life. Crim could pass the turn and the opponent was guaranteed to lose in their next draw step. Even with two Lembases (Lembae?) in play they couldn't loop Lembas to live forever--their draw step will still get them. (Also, it appears that they only play one Lembas.) Casting Ulamog or Ugin to destroy/exile the crab before combat wouldn't have worked either since Crim could cast two Fatal Pushes to kill both attacking creatures. I think the opponent realized the game was lost was just going out on their own terms.

@@tomb5353I thought they lost to the draw a card trigger on lembas

​@@konnichi1wa They did lose to that trigger but they had no other way to put cards into their deck before their next draw step

@@umbraloctavia5349 They could’ve had one more turn if they popped the lembas in response to the draw trigger.

I run a really old version of the Nexus deck and the wincon is Jace, Wielder of Mysteries... Play it on turn 5 with only 15 cards left in my deck I know opponent was salty 😂

@@ekiM2K very nice! 😂

Sac Lembas in response to its ETB. It shuffles Lembas into the library then draws itself basically

@@cedricberube but then he lose anyway because he failed to kill Crim that turn anyway right? Since even if he sac Lembas to draw it again he’ll lose the “protection” since it’s not in the battlefield anymore.

@@Feito-sm3zj Oh yeah, sorry i thought you asked how he could not die from the draw trigger. But yes, he dies next turn anyway

@@cedricberube ah, yeah no problem, since Crim said its an “anti-mill” and “they did it incorrectly”, so I’m just wondering what the correct way to make it an “anti-mill” but can’t see it in the battlefield.

not true, they still are the controller of the battle, even though crim was selected as defender

They were not since he doesn't control de battles, it's just that fatal push can target things that it cannot destroy

not true

@@joek3654 I see the protector clause is not the same as controller.

AKA : the game is a windmill, milling out cards. My opponent is the lever, i am the hold that churns the cards out.

Mill in a TCG means putting cards from the top of the deck into the graveyard. It's named after an MTG card called Millstone that did this. "Mill decks" are usually decks that try to exhaust their opponent's deck of cards and win by emptying their library.

In MTG, a lot of archetypes earn their name from the first card that does a specific effect. Mill get its name from Millstone (which you can search it up on google to see its effect) and the objective of a mill deck is to "deck out" the opponent by putting his cards from library into graveyard (usually) with spells. The opponent loses if he cannot draw a card (due to empty library) in the draw step. Some other games like HS uses "mill" for the archetype with the same gameplan as well, it's a commonly used term nowaday. The controls you described in MTG terms are like this: infinite draw = if your plan is to infinite draw into some sort of combo to finish the game, that's a COMBO deck in MTG. Searchers = The term is TUTOR for MTG, named after Demonic Tutor. Tutor cards let you search your library for specific cards you'd choose. Board control = That's just a generic CONTROL deck. Opponent's hand control = In MTG, the archetype or approach is known as HAND DESTRUCTION.

A card being bad in a niche mirror match does not mean it's bad in a niche archetype. You proved nothing

That proves nothing 90% of time mill doesn't care about getting milled itself, except for other mill decks and maybe some wierd reanimator builds

It's one colorless mana and it's probably going to mill at least six cards. That's an amazing rate! Considering that we pay two colored mana to mill ten

Ya I read about that match 🫠

When asking yourself why someone is running a card think about the floor and the ceiling of a card. The floor of the orb is it eats a removal spell. The ceiling of the card is he Mills half his library.
