Magic: absoute ownage.

[Aki Dazrold]

Okay.

So.

Zjean and I were playing a game of Magic. The gametype we were playing is a combination of two-headed giant and frontline modes (the latter is one of my own creation, and it works beautifully, btw). Bottom line, eight decks were playing at once, and the match was basically one giant deck test. Four-on-four.

So Zjean had out an Orochi Leafcaller, two Benevolent Ancestors, a Traproot Kami, a Stalwart Shield-Bearers, and an Overgrown Battlement out on his frontlinesman's field. He had made it abundantly clear that he needed a +1/+1 counter on the Battlement, so by means of my Forgotten Ancient, I put one counter on it and two on the Leafcaller (so a low-powered damage spell wouldn't pick it off), saving four for the Fertilid I intended to play on my turn so I could start pulling out a bunch of lands.

But he didn't give me that chance.

On his next turn, he tapped the Battlement to produce five green mana, and put it through the Leafcaller and turned it all blue. He then cast a Vigean Graftmage, and if you can figure out how this move impacted the rest of his turn, you understand how this one action was a potential game-ender. Bottom line, he also whipped out a Soulbound Guardians (which upped the usefulness of the Battlement) and an Experiment Kraj, and also cast a Thrive to give all of his creatures a +1/+1 counter (in addition to three other creatures his allies controlled). And he only tapped one land.

A Valeron Outlander was also thrown in the mix, but it got incapacitated by a Recumbent Bliss shortly afterwards and served no further purpose.

The other seven players took their turns, not imagining what was about to happen next.

When that player went again, He used the Graftmage, the Leafcaller, the Battlement, and Kraj to make EVERY ONE of his creatures have 20 power. He also ninja'd a counter onto Drana, Kalastria Bloodchief, which the enemy player directly in front of him controlled.

Then he killed eveything.

No joke. Every single creature the four enemy players controlled was wiped off the field by Experiment Kraj, who stole Drana's ability. The only creature that survived was a Thornscape Apprentice, because it's controller used a Might of Alara to save it, and Zjean was too lazy to adjust to kill it. I sniped it with Spawning Breath on my turn anyway.

His Kraj, however, got like 35 extra attack power added to the 20 it already had. He then attacked the player in front of him with Kraj, and the line put forth in the topic description was used by me.

One guy down, three to go.

Since the other enemy frontlinesman (the one in front of ME) had no creatures, my frontlinesman and Zjean's rear player (dubbed the "Emperor") rushed it with a few creatures, knocking him down to 3 life. That player's Emperor Cast a Juniper Order Ranger, the only spell it was capable of casting at the time. Then the 3-life-frontlinesman took the damage from a Browbeat my Emperor (the one who had the Forgotten Ancient) cast. This was essentially a "Goodbye, cruel world", leaving his Emperor with only a 2/4 to defend with.

Then Zjean's frontlinesman went again. He attacked with Kraj, the Leafcaller, and the Graftmage; the only three creatures he had that could attack. Kraj and the GMage went towards the Emperor in front of me, and the LCaller went towards the Emperor in front of Zjean. The Juniper Order Ranger blocked the mage, and the other Emperor cast a Constricting Tendrils to lower Kraj's attack by three points; and that Emperor blocked the Caller with a Kor Duelist.

It surprised me that nodody died.

But the Emperor with three life died on my Frontlinesman's turn anyway, because I hit him with two drakes spawned from Leafdrake Roost on previous turns.

The other Emperor (who was at over 20 life due to Recumbent Bliss) took enough damage from Zjean's Emperor to lower their life total to 9, then my Emperor finished it off by putting nine +1/+1 counters from Forgotten Ancient onto a Nissa's Chosen, who (alongside a Flamekin Harbinger) ended the game with a spectaculer overkill.

Nobody on our team took any damage, except for Zjean's frontlinesman, who took 3 from an unkicked Urza's Rage near the end of the game.

By the way, Said Frontlinesman only had five lands.

All but one of them was a forest, and it was a plains.

PLAAAAAAAAAAAIIIINNNNNNNSSSSSSSSSSS

Mine is the Judgment Version

Unless Your opponent Has browbeat Deal 5 damage to him or her, Target opponent draws Three Cards

They always thought that The opponent had to have the card on the field to avoid the damage

EDIT: I Always use browbeat on myself, Not very many people want to Take 5, So i gain 3 free cards ^_^

All the versions I look at on the Gatherer say "Target player draws three cards". Not Opponent. The most recent ones say this:

"Any player may have Browbeat deal 5 damage to him or her. If no one does, target player draws three cards."

Meaning that if nobody takes the five damage, the player casting the spell gets to CHOOSE who draws the cards.

Not whoever takes the damage.

Also, if you have an epic pwnship to the best of your recollection, please share it here.

That goes for anybody.

My Creature With Protection From Creatures

Oh btw

Is that this card, or something enchanted with this?

[Zjean]

Once, I played two Soul's Attendant's at the start of the game.

I ended with my life total nearing 200.

[Zjean]

I also don't know if cards that old can still be used in tournies.

But who all is going to the Archenemy release this weekend? I most definitely am.

[Aki Dazrold]

Oh, and if you think protection from creatures is cool, allow me to direct your attention to EXHIBIT A.

[Zjean]

For whom I shall buy large numbers of Conflux packs to get. And then I buy three packs and get two mythic rares. Unfortunately, it was neither of the mythics I wanted and for the wrong expansions.

Just a Thraximundar and Master of the Wild Hunt.

I wanted a Dragon Broodmother and a Verdant Force.

I wants to have it.

And yes, it is. That is why that little symbol is orange.

[Aki Dazrold]

DAMMIT

[Zjean]

LZ and I played a game of Magic and he played a Martial Coup where X equaled 7, which destroyed my infinite mana capability previously described, Kraj, and my Spike Feeder. So I gave my Spike Feeder enough +1/+1 counters to give me a googol life. I won.
