You're welcome.

Every once in a while I have moments of genius.

It can be a *tad* over the top at times. :)

Wish there were a few more good ones, I'd consider building a deck around them. :)

I think your list was one of the ones I saw. Might even be the base that the others were built from as they all seemed to be within 6-7 cards of each other. I might trim some other things for the Hydra (I like that cards as well), but Ruby is really helpful in this list. Especially if you get to play a Sureshot on T3 and a big thing on T4.

But Ruby is the best 👌

Disconnects are a whole different thing. There's generally a pacing and decision point difference where there's a higher liklihood that it's a salt rope than a disconnect.

For the record, I just report and move on. I made this one specifically, because a bunch of people had no idea you could even report or now to. But you interpret that how you want boo boo.

Nobody's crying, we just don't like our time being wasted by sore losers. When I'm in an unwinnable board state, I concede and move on.

From wha tI can tell, it's the same steps as in the video. Gear Icon>report a bug > contact support, then follow the instructions and drop down menu. You'll probably want to hit the "capture log" button before hitting contact support so you have a game log to attach to the file when you report the player.

I don't even want to go down that road. These days, I like as little communication as necessary between me and my opponents in online games.

@@PowrDragn I’m sorry you feel like MTGA should be so isolating. For the people I know through Magic, we play Because it is a social game. We wish to interact. You are welcome to play however you feel fit. Just know its rather abnormal for EDH and casual players to be so anti-social.

@@dragade101he said online. I mute anyone after 3 rounds of “Your go”. I am not a slow player.

When there's a normal game pace that's broken down in the middle of the game, it's likely the game crashing. When it happens all of sudden as you're about to win and it was perfectly up until then, I'm willing to lean more toward salt ropes.

You're welcome.

Not sure how clickbait-y is it. Spent quite a bit of time in this episode talking about Richard Garfield and what was actually said, or not said if you will, in that particular article. And it was particularly worded as such, because some folks likely saw the article and gave it the "I'm not reading all that" so we have the cliff notes version for them.

That's part of the gamble. High risk, high reward.

Then don't be that person. Edit: And on a more serious note, it's likely not changing the outcome of that came anyway with their board state and what I have available in this build. Not a big deal to give up a win and move on to the next game. The opponent earned it.

@@PowrDragn you're right, I am sorry. I've seen multiple people not realizing that the powerstone can pay for anything that's not a non-artifact spell that I wanted to make sure. It truly was not meant as an offense of any kind, but it's difficult to convey that over text.

@@zavahl6445 You're all good, friendo. Considering the amount of heat I take for a pile of other things, what you posted was not even remotely close to offensive.

There are definitely much worse things you can be doing.

I could've. But as shown, the opponent had the sweeper I was concerned about. I would've left them as six and still no way to really finish them outside of Ob. I preferred to have the the Carnosaur in hand to produce two more threats alongside the Ob Nixilis to force them to have a ton more answers to try and come back from there. I got the result I wanted, so in the end it's not really a big deal either way.

@@PowrDragn very true. Always a big fan of Jund!

Yeah, I might have played that line, but I think PowerDragon's line was also valid, or maybe even more correct (I'm not sure) I think PowerDragon missed potential lethal on the next turn though. Could have sacrificed the carnosaur to Ob Nix ore-conbat and done a -7 with the Ob Nix, targeting them to finish them off. They would need to have had both last cards be No More Lies (or have a negate)... Which even then, would mean they have to face 3 ob nixili when they have no cards/creatures. Obviously they were essentially dead anyway though, so didn't really matter.

It really does feel pretty great.

Yeah, I'm glad/sad it rotates out in September

....So you mean just how I stated in the video on top of noting I randomly didn't play a blocker either...? LOL

@@PowrDragn I typed the above before you said it. I'm convinced people don't read cards. Apparently, this includes, not even their own.

@@georgeblair3894 Sometimes people just get tunnel vision. Play too fast. Misclick. Make mistakes. It happens. All part of the game.

He could've won a turn earlier, too, I think (when there were 3 valid blockers). I think if Glissa ever hits you when you have an Archfiend out, you're dead on the next upkeep?

Thanks. I have the dumbest, but amusing, train of thought sometimes. :)

I have so many of those. LOL

For real. Kinda surprised me that it went down the way it did.

Hope this helps give you some good ideas.
