    the fact that arena made you use full control to respond to the sword trigger is certainly something

      Honestly I just leave full control on the entire time after the match where the game refused to let me respond to a craterhoof with my counter spell and just let it resolve instead. Keep in mind they didn't have anything that made their card uncounterable and I had more than enough perfect mana up

      Watch the video again, the game paused with the ability on the stack so he can exile it from the graveyard but crim passed it himself(by pressing space bar or something). It's funny how many times he punts and blames the game.

      It’s not for “children” compared to say, Pokemon. Look up the original artworks for Mindleech Ghoul, Brain Maggot, Macabre Waltz, Transgress the Mind etc. etc.
