At around 42:26, patrick bolts and then casts snapcaster targeting bolt again, but Shaun had an untapped relic of progenitus and could have just exiled the bolt with snapcasters ability on the stack, right? I don't understand why he just let patrick get the extra value off of his snapcaster

The Relic was tapped at the time. Watch from around 41:30. When the camera zooms out at 42:15, they've gone to the next turn.

I'm in no position to judge people at the pro tour level, but doesn't Cryptic Command allow you to bounce a permanent to its owner's hand? So at 54:35, it seemed as though Dickmann could bounce the ooze to his hand, and he has two counterspells to back up that play if McLaren wants to fight over it. He just won a counterspell battle getting his ooze in play, so it stands to reason McLaren might not have answers to that play. Can anybody explain to me why passing the turn is better?
@mdt218910 жыл бұрын
The reason I'm suggesting this now is because McLaren is somewhat tapped out.
@raisins777710 жыл бұрын
mdt2189 I don't pretend to follow all the intricacies but the first level argument for waiting is the pure value of using instants on the other player's turn. Even if they have more mana available for the fight it's mana they can't use for threats or proactive plays and mana that is then tapped out for your next turn.
@chakalrbn10 жыл бұрын
There was a lot of pros and cons on doing that... Anyway, at that point, Dickmann had to choose, and if he had done that play, cryptic to bounce and fight for it when countered, he was going to be tapped, and next turn he was open to get 8 from Colonnade and Mage.... And that's one more reason to pass the turn all untapped, he still could use cryptic to counter and/or bounce any spell, respond to Colonnade activation, etc, etc.. One way or another he would take damage, but passing the turn he gain the possibility to avoid that in a lot of possible ways, multiple possibilities of turning the game, instead of going to 2 life for certain if he had been tapped just for bounce Ooze... This is, obviously only my point of view... He had chosen the possibility to have the cryptic for bouncing/countering/tap all, and still mana to fight for it if countered, instead of just using it for bounce the ooze and get certain damage next turn!... (what happened anyway, as we know) ;)

At 45:10, Patrick is stacking his deck, as far as I can see. It looks like he notices several counter spells next to each other, and he puts them back in, but further apart.... Is that legal?

to be honest, though im not a pro, the third game patrick should snapcaster and flash back gitaxian probe immediately after facing land screwed situation to force the relic into action.... in the end patrick cast a snapcaster for no extra value plus delay for at least one turn... thats a huge misplay i guess....
@nathanWrobinson9 жыл бұрын
Andriy Law he wouldnt have gotten to... heres how that scenario plays out. dickman plays snapcaster mage, targets probe. in response to target, mclaren fetches off of mesa and pays one mana to activate relic of progenitus's second ability, which exiles all cards from both plays graveyard and draw him a card. he then untaps and casts electrolyze... so instead Mclaren gets a 3 for 2. instead he passes, hoping Mclaren casts a spell that he could remand to play a card.

At 1:01:35 its really clear, he see's 3 tarmogoyf's next to each other, and rearrange's them. Is this legal?
@juptor10 жыл бұрын
It's okay to do it because he's going to shuffle afterwards. It's also one-hundred percent useless. There are some rules that define how to properly shuffle so that you completely randomize the order of the cards undoing any "stacks" that might have been left in the deck, and he's following them.

He also does it at 54:45. I guess "stacking" is not the correct word, its more "rearranging your library, while looking at the cards face up, as you are searching thrue the library for X". (X here being a land in both cases). I'm pretty bad at magic, but i did not think that this was part of the text "Search your library for a basic Island or forest"....

Actually the word binary only means that the number system 'has two values'. We chose 0 and 1 for practical reasons but there's no reason that it couldn't be 1 and 2 instead.

It´s not always slow, it depends mostly on the players, some control players are really aggressive bold and fast in their choices from the start of the game and interact constantly, Ben stark is a great example when he plays UWR, though these are exceptions. As an aggro player I get what you are saying, yet you should check the finals of this protour, Uwr, against brithing pod is an intense match. Pod basically goes on the beatdown plan and control has to react fast to it.
