You can't hurt me!

Sorry, nope. Void specifically says opponents yard, so stuff still goes to your yard.

That would be great if leyline prevented your cards from entering the GY

There must be a card that does that.

{forbidden crypt} but it would be short lived if you did not have a full GY already

That's what {zo-zu, the punisher} calls me. I just kind of stay away from him.

But how did we go in less than 10 minutes from a no damage combo to an enemy goblin tribe leader?

I just remembered an old kamigawa freind that would work with this combo, {samurai of the pale curtain}

If you really don't want to take damge just use this old combo: {Stasis} and {Kismet}. This combo will lock your opponent down.

How does this prevent damage?

I suppose you could always {Donate} the void to your opponent with {Bazaar Trader} or something.

It locks down your opponent. They never get to play anything so you never get damaged.

Yeah, but it won't save you from a vigilant creature already on the table.

Unless that vigilant creature is a 1 drop they won't be playing anything after {Stasis} comes out and {Kismet} furthers the lock.

There are a lot of holes in that theory
Title: Re: Never take damage
Post by: BlackJester on March 01, 2012, 12:58:58 AM
It's a lock, yes.  An your statement assumes you have {Stasis} in your opening.  But it still doesn't literally prevent damage. You could die to a {Blazing Shoal} powered {Inkmoth Nexus}, hypothetically.

Nope. The Leyline replaces the cards action. {Planar Void} triggers, so the cards go to the gy first and then are exiled.
A buddy of mine runs it with {Web of Inertia}.

Neither planar void or leyline of the void works. Planar void triggers after it enters graveyard, do energy field dies, and leyline of the void only affects opponents cards

Ps. How can I link cards? is it a special text code?

Not sure if anyone is still reading this thread, but Wheel of Sun and Moon puts your cards on the bottom of your library instead of the yard.

{Tamiyo lol sage}s ulti would work here.
Easier to go with {platinum emperion}

Maybe {leyline of sanctity} should have been used, no need to splash white just run four of the white leylines, just run burn goblins, or things that ping in damage, sit back and be untouchable, hexproof and no damage coming to you, except what you deal to yourself. It could work as long as you have four of the blue enchantments
Title: Re: Never take damage
Post by: Jake, Fart Sculptor on May 10, 2012, 04:29:19 PM
Well maybe you should splash white, or just mulligan into a white leyline. Play only indestructible creatures?
Title: Re: Never take damage

Posted first deck idea around this in casual. Don't ever plan to build it, but I'm sure it could work somewhat.

It only makes "You", the player, hexproof. Not your creatures.
But I might have misunderstood your post.

I know, what I'm saying is with hexproof and permanents you don't control not being able to hurt you, you're untouchable. So throw in hexproof or indestructible creatures and you should be pretty good
