Title: Gutter Curiosity
Post by: Deebiia on November 17, 2013, 08:30:32 AM
{Guttersnipe} {Curiosity}

Last night was the first time I played cards with my uncle and his friends in awhile. I was playing a {U}{R} deck I made about a week before. It was really nice fourth turn drawing four cards by playing {Electrickery} and {shock}.

{electrickery} does not trigger curiosity.

Great combination though with lots of cantrips. {manamorphose} and {gitaxian probe} dig till their dead.

Maybe this could go in the blistercoil deck?

Storm or {pyromancer ascension} more likely. {2}{R} is too expensive for a blistercoil deck.

I'm assuming you miss understood, but if he has {curiosity} attached to {guttersnipe}, him casting {electrickery} would trigger the guttersnipe, triggering curiosity.

True. Still early... The 4 cards is what did not make sense. Two triggers means two cards.

Crap, yeah wait, he wouldn't draw 4 cards, I didn't catch that. By my calculation he'd get 2. Maybe 3 if he swung with the snipe.

I was playing with 3 other guys, one lost T3, and I put {Curiosity} on the {Guttersnipe} and cast two instants. I was told, by the guy that lost already, that I would draw cards for each person damaged by the Guttersnipe. Seeing as how I cast two instants I would draw four cards-- the Guttersnipe dealt the 2 damage to both opponents twice.

Yes that works. The other possibility for drawing four cards is if you count your draw step and dealt combat damage.

Ok, that adds up, I was assuming 1v1. Good combo, I like it.
