anyone?
I'll play. I'll pull up a deck on my phone and play from there. You go first.
ill play in maybe an hour ish once i finish some work. ok with you? might be a little earlier, don't really know. sorry.
It's ok. I'll be off and on, so we may miss each other some, but I'll keep an eye on my ph
ok, thanks. random question: if i posted a link to a mono blue devotion decklist on tappedout that i think is good, would you be able to test it against me for 1 or 2 games to help me test my UW agro?
i'd also be happy to play (or attempt to play :P ) any deck you want to test against if you find me a list.
Is be happy to. Its hard to do by phone, by phone works better from mtgvault, but I'll do it once at least from tappedout. I've played a WU and A WB, but not mono
great, thanks! doesn't need to be tonight or anything, i can post a link and then whenever you can play at a computer you can do it then. no rush, i have until game day ;)
Post link for our next game when you are ready to start
Thanks again. Here's the link to a pretty normal mono blue list.
http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/devotion-to-blue-10-12-13-2/
Too tired now, I'll take my turn tomorrow. If you want to test anything against esper control, I have a proxy esper deck I can play. Still need to update it with botg cards though.
{temple of enlightenment}, send top card to the bottom, pass 20/6
Draw. Island. {cloud fun raptor}. Pass.
20/6
Going to have to wait till tonight most likely. Sorry. :(
Sorry that took so long. Draw, plains, pass. Slow start. Not good.
Draw. {mutavault}. Pass.
20/6
{nykthos, shrine to Nyx} and {brimaz, king of oreskos}. Pass 20/5
Draw. Island. {tide binder Mage} evolve the raptor and attack for one in the air. Pass.
I messed up and would have played this last turn, except I forgot and thought temple of enlightenment was GW if you want to test and pretend I know what I'm doing ;) let me having played this last turn (I would have played island last turn and mutavault this turn) then let me play anothe three mana card pre combat. I wouldn't ask except that you are testing. If not, then go ahead and take your turn.
Go ahead and change your turn :) i don't mind and it helps me test. Will you mind playing games 2/3 so I can test my SB?
Just make sure you are specific about what you change, I'm kinda tired and I want to make sure I understand.
Sure. My precombat play is {thassa god of the sea}. I ubderstand that would not evolve the raptor,
Pass.
20/4
So any attacks? Your board is tidebinder, noncreature thassa and raptor, correct?
Oh, still just the raptor. Then pass. Same as before. Pass

Oh, still just the raptor. Then pass. Same as before. Pass
So I take 1. Draw, {boros reckoner}, attack with brimaz and get a cat. Blocks for either?
Pass 19//4
Nope.
You take 4. Pass 19/4
Scry one and leave it. Draw. {nythos shrine to Nyx}. Activate it and cast {night veil spectr}. Evolve raptor. Activate thassa to make the tidebinder unblock able. Attack with it for two and with the 2/3 raptor. Pass.
16/3
Take 4. Draw, activate my own nykthos for white mana. Add 5. Play {banisher preist} exiling thassa. Play {precinct captain}. Attack with brimaz, get a cat, and attack with my reckoner. Blocks? I might not be done post combat.
Also, I posted a ruling in your edh game for you. Too late though now.
That's 7 attacking? Sure. Take it.
Ok post combat {hallowed fountain} tapped, pass 15/3
Draw. Attack with the raptor and the specter. What do I exile from your library? Also, I assume playing a land from your library coubts towards my land per turn?
115.2a (http://imtgapp.com/forum/index.php?action=imtg;area=rule;number=115.2a): Playing a land is a special action. To play a land, a player puts that land onto the battlefield from the zone it was in (usually that player's hand). By default, a player can take this action only once during each of his or her turns. A player can take this action any time he or she has priority and the stack is empty during a main phase of his or her turn. See rule 305, "Lands."
It does.
What do you have left untapped? You exile a {brimaz, king of oreskos}
I tap out to play another {tidebinder Mage} and then a {master of waves} with devotion of nine. I have untapped nine elementals, the two tidebunders, and the master of waves.
Life and hand size? Mostly concerned about life total right now
9/2
Draw, attack with brimaz, the two cats I already made, and reckoner. Then, after I get the third cat, {brave the elements} for blue to make my guys unblockable. Game? You are taking 9. If I can't cast that spell at that time, then I'll attack with my precinct captain to make sure it's 9 total damage.
Game. Well done.
I'll have to play game two tomorrow after I sideboard.
Thanks :)
I'm too tired to play now anyway. Good game and thanks for helping me play test!
No problem. That cat is a beast

No problem. That cat is a beast
Yep. He's awesome. I'd play more but I don't think I'll be able to afford it. :( unless I find some mind sieze decks cheap at target, then I'll be happy :)
Lol. I keep my eyes on target myself.
Ok. I'll go first post sideboard.
Island. {cloud fun raptors}. Pass.
20/5
ok. {temple of enlightenment}, leave top card there, pass 20/7
Draw. Island. That 1/4 elemental that "pumps". Away from deck. Playing from memory. Pass.
ok. attacks? I assume you would have attacked with a 1/2 raptor. I'll take 1. draw, {hallowed fountain} untapped, 2 {soldier of the pantheon}. pass 17/5
Yeah, sorry. Playing ibfamiliar deck from memory.
Draw. Another 1/4 elemental. Attack with the 2/3 in the air and the initial 1/4 on the ground. Pass.
your raptor isn't a 2/3. i'll take 1 from the raptor and block your {frostburn weird} with both my soldiers. my turn?
He is a 2/3. I just played a second frost burn weird and it has a toughness of four. Yes?
oh. forgot how evolve works :( so does the attacking weird die?
.....playing by memory is a bad idea I think, I thought you only had the one soldier....can we say I didn't attack with the weird, just the 2/3?
Either way, in tapped out. Pass.
And unfortunately, that's as far as I can play from memory. I'll have to take my next turn tomorrow.
sure. so i will take 2. draw, plains, {boros reckoner}. attack for 4 with both soldiers. pass 15/4
Oh, lol. I forgot the weirds are gold. I wouldn't have done anything different but I was expecting to block. Lol.
this game isn't working too well....
Yeah, sorry about all my misremembering etc. its a shame you and I are so rarely near decks at the same time.
Yeah. It's ok :(
Ok. I'm back and have deck.
Draw. {cloudfin raptor}. Pass.
16/5
we have very different schedules, so yeah this can be kinda annoying. That or different time zones, not sure.
draw, tap 3 for {ajani, caller of the pride}. +1/+1 counter on the reckoner, attack for for with my soldiers. pass 15/4
You attack with the pumped reckoner and with the two 2/1? I have a mono colored 2/3 untapped if you didn't know.
oh. oops. just attack with reckoner then. sorry :(
It's ok. :).
I'll cast {rapid hybridization} on the reckoner. He dies and you get an almost as good replacement ;).
You done? I'll have to take my turn tomorrow. :/
Yep done. Won't be able to play for the rest of the day though :(
Draw. Island. {night vale Spector}. It evolves only the newest raptor into a 1/2.
Attack with the 1/2 in the air. Pass.
take 1. draw, use ajani to give my frog lizard a +1/+1 counter. how much power in blockers do you have untapped? if it's less than 4, i'll attack with the frog lizard. if not, pass 14/5
Untapped I have two weirds, a 2/3 raptor, and a 2/3 specter. So you pass?
Quote from: Ieatfood7 on January 29, 2014, 04:26:28 PM
Untapped I have two weirds, a 2/3 raptor, and a 2/3 specter. So you pass?
Yes.
Draw. {thassa god of the sea}. Evolve both raptors. Attack with 3/4 raptor and with 2/3 Spector. What card do I exile?
Pass after that.
{Gainsay} Thassa. Does that change anything?
Boo ;)
Yeah. Nothing evolves. Let's hit you with the 2/3 Spector and let's hit the planes walker with the 1/2 raptor. What do I exile?
Pass after attacks
exile {spear of heliod}. boo ;)
untapped creatures: 2 frostburn weirds and a raptor, correct?
Yup. The 2/3 raptor.
Sucks to be stuck on mana all game.
life total?
16/2
thanks. draw, use ajani to give my frog lizard flying and double strike. Give everything protection from blue with {brave the elements}. attack for 12. pass 14/4 with ajani at 2 loyalty.
I understand you have no blockers left.
Ok. I'm at four. Draw. Attack you for two with the Spector. What do I exile? Attack the planes walker with both weirds.
Unless I exile something interesting and blue, pass.
4/3. Two birds untapped.
You exile another spear of heliod. :'(. Ajani dies.
draw, {brave the elements} for blue, attack for game with my 2 soldiers and lizard. Game?
Yup. Figured. The cyclonic rift in hand can only take out one guy. Four damage regardless.
Again? I don't like mono blue but I'm happy to help test. I'll go first.
Some sideboard ing.
Island. Pass.
20/6
Sounds good. Thanks again. I can help you test your decks afterwards if you like. I have a rtr block/theros version of Esper proxied out if you want to test against that, although it's geared a little more towards creature heavy decks (Built to prove a point to someone :P )
Draw, plains, {soldier of the pantheon}, pass 20/6
DreW. Island. {frost burn weird}. Pass.
draw, miss land drop :'( , attack for 2. pass 20/7
You are at 21.
Draw. {night veil Spector}. Attack for one. Pass.
I think you should have muliganed.
thanks for reminding me. i probably should have, but didn't feel like it. now I'm at 22.
Draw, hallowed fountain untapped, attack for 2, pass 20/7
also, want to play some EDH later?
Lol. Sorry.
And you are at 21 end of your turn.
Draw. Island. {night veil Spector}. Attack with the first Spector and the 1/4 weird.
16/3
I'm not sure I'll have time for edh late but I'd love to at least start a game
Quote from: Ieatfood7 on January 29, 2014, 05:36:20 PM
Lol. Sorry.
And you are at 21 end of your turn.
Draw. Island. {night veil Spector}. Attack with the first Spector and the 1/4 weird.
16/3
I'm not sure I'll have time for edh late but I'd love to at least start a game
What are you apologizing for? And I'm at 22, you played 2 multicolor creatures. Then I gain another 1 from the second specter. You exile a {soldier of the pantheon}. Now I'm at 16. my turn?
You had gained three now, but you missed my first attack for one, I think. Last turn you said you were 22 and then ended your turn with "20/x"
I was apologizing because I thought I might have sounded ass-ish about muligan
Your turn.
So i'm at 15 now? I'm getting confused, sorry. must be from doing 3 things at once :(
Lol. No problem. You gained three life. I have hit you twice with the weird and once with the flier, so you are at 19
i shocked myself with hallowed fountain. is it too late to {gainsay} that second specter? i haven't taken my turn yet.
It's not too late to use game say if you want to, though my response would be to play my own gainsay ;-)
oh. ok. then we both lose our gainsays, as i would have done that.
draw, plains, {detention sphere} your specters and attack for 2. pass 15/6
Booooo. I want my gain say back.
;). Joke.
Away from deck, I'll play at leat a little later tonight though
:) ok
Draw. Island. {thassa god of the sea}. You have no blockers, right? Attack with the weird and pump him to 3/2. Pass.
I don't have time tonight to finish this (sorry! :( :( ), but what's your life/hand size?
14/1
actually, i can play :)
draw, {detention sphere} thassa, pass 12/5. finally getting my lands, I'm ok now :P
:/.
Draw. {cloudfin raptor}. Pass.
draw, {hallowed fountain} untapped (ow), {brimaz, king of oreskos}. kittys! :P
pass 10/4
Draw. Island. {frost burn weird}. Evolve the raptor and attack with raptor. Pass.
Empty hand.
take 1. draw, {spear of heliod}, attack for 9 total (including the not so small anymore cat token). pass 9/4
Block the lion king with both weirds. Pump them to each be 4/1. They trade with him, I take five, then you pass?
{brave the elements}, pro blue. kill them both then? and yes i pass afterwards.
Draw. {shrine to Nyx}. Peek at the next card and show a mutavault, scoop.
Nice! I'm not sure I'm playing this deck optimally though
Even without playing the deck the best, I really appreciate the help with testing. I'd give you more +1's if i was able too.... :)
Anything you want me to test?
Yeah, how about I run my new brew against yours. I roll 7
you can choose 1st/second
Ok. Plains. Pass.
20/6
draw, plains, {soldier of the pantheon}, pass 20/6
Draw. Plains.{ Hero of iroas} pass.
20/5
draw, plains, {imposing sovereign}, pass 20/5
Draw. Plains. {gift of orzhov a}. Heroic trigger. Attack for four lifelink in the air. If no shenanigans, pass.
Tapped out. No shenanigans. Draw, plains, {banisher preist} your hero and attack for 4. pass 16/4
{gods willing}. It makes my gift fall off but the dude love and is pumped.
Slap {elodion of countless battles} on him. Heroic. He is now 5/5 and the aura gives 2/2.
Swing for seven. Pass. Tapped out.
woah. ok. draw, plains, {boros reckoner}. attack for 6 and pass 9/3
Ok. Hmm. Ok. Draw. Plains. Play {elodion of countless battles} as a creature. 3/3. Attack for eight with the hero. If no blocks, pass.
block with reckoner
{celestial flare}
saw something coming there. whatever. my turn? and life/hand size?
14 life. One card in hand. Tapped out.
plains, {ajani, caller of the pride}, {precinct captain}. +1/+1 counter for soldier of the pantheon, attack for 7. the end of this is going to have to wait till tomorrow, sorry :( pass 9/1
Attack with what exactly? I have an untapped 3/3 in case you didn't know.
I attack with {imposing sovereign}, (your eidilon is tapped), {banisher preist}, and a {soldier of the pantheon} with a +1/+1 counter.
I'm sorry, I had to clean up. I concede. I forgot about the sovereign.
Again?
I'd rather play EDH than standard. That ok?
Sure. What matchup?
I'm running my bad {derevi, empyrial tactician} deck. I can post a list to prove thats it's fair for 1v1 if you want :P ;)
I don't care. I've never played a degenerate one so I am fine.
I'll play {Kemba kha regent}.
I roll 14
roll a 16. what are we doing for mulligans?
Comander muligans to seven.
partial mulligans?
Yes. That's the comander rules
ok. I mulligan 2 cards and will go first.
No draw :(, plains, {selesnya signet}, pass 40/5
That signet costs two
oh wow. oops. I do that EVERY SINGLE TIME. Sorry :( can I play {evolving wilds} instead? pass 40/6
That's fine. Plains. {shuko}. Pass. 40/6
end of turn grab forest with evolving wilds. draw, plains, play the {selesnya signet}. pass 40/5
Draw. Plains. {avacin's collar}
{basilisk collar}
Pass.
40/4
not looking good. :P
draw, tap everything and signet for {thran dynamo}. pass 40/4
Draw. Plains. {Kemba kha regent}. Equip {shuko} pass.
draw, tap plains, island, {selesnya signet} for {derevi, empyrial tactician}. before untap trigger resolves tap the thran dynamo for 3 mana. then untap it and tap it again to play {conjurer's closet}.
if I exile and return derevi and untap a thran dynamo, does mana stay in my mana pool from my upkeep to main phase?
No. Mana pool empties every step or phase...I get confused to which. But It doesn't vary over to main phase
i assume vary was supposed to be carry?
anyway, pass 40/4
Assume you did all that in your main phase. So end phase you bounce her?
what? no. {conjurer's closet} activates during upkeep. I was just wondering for next turn if i keep the mana. pass 40/4
edit: wow! it actually does activate during end step. doesn't matter, I tapped my lands wrong so there's no point in flickering derevi.
Read the closet again
just did :P look above your post. oops. lol.
You can redo your whole turn if you want. Confusion on rules, plus I'm tapped out, so no harm done.
instead of tapping plains and island and signet for derevi, I'll tap forest and island. So, same board state at end of turn except untapped plains. then i'll flicker derevi and untap the thran dynamo. pass 40/4
Ok. Make cat token. Draw. Plains. Equip. Equip. Pass.
yikes. draw, grin, play {phantom nantuko} tapping island and {thran dynamo}. pass 40/4
sorry for the long wait, i was eating :)
Aww! I love phantom nantuku! I used to run one in my green deck. Good times.
Upkeep make three cat tokens.
Draw. Plains. {trusty machete}. ....
Equip the machete and shuko to a cat token and attack for five. Then equip them to Kemba
Pass
Away from deck for a while
block with phantom nantuko. shenanigans?
Nope. Just gotta keep that guy small.
my turn?
Yup
draw, tap nantuko for a counter. end of turn flicker derevi to untap the nantuko. pass 40/5
Untap. Make four cats. Draw. Plains.
Your nantuku is now a 2/2 and untapped, yes? So even if I attack with a 3/3, you can pump yours after blocking and win?
Pass.
40/3
Maybe I draw something next turn that's not a plains?
it is 2/2 and untapped, yes. I'll take my turn later today.
end of turn tap nantuko for a counter. draw, flicker derevi at end of turn adding another counter to nantuko before untapping it, pass 40/6
Make four cats.
Draw. Plains. {mind stone} and sac it. Draw. Pass.
Three cards in hand.
How big is the nantuku?
And I have 12 tokens.
it is an untapped 3/3
Ok. Your turn. I just have to keep an eye on it. ;)
ok. end of turn tap it for another counter. draw, tap 1 for {path to exile} on kemba, then tap 2 for {mistmeadow witch}. I WILL kill those cats :P
....that sounded odd.
Anyway... flicker derevi end of turn, tap nantuko for a counter in response to trigger, untap nantuko, pass 40/5
Ok. I'll move Kemba to the comand zone.
Draw. Play Kemba for five. Plains. {swift foot boots and equip them. Equip {shuko}. Pass.
Two cards in hand
tap nantuko for a counter EOT. draw, tap 2 for {kazandu tuskcaller}, flicker derevi for another counter on the nantuko who is now an untapped 7/7. pass 40/5
Two cats. Draw. {mask of memory} and equip. Equip basaltic collar and trusty machete. Pass.
can you try to type some of the equipment names better? I know autocorrect is annoying, but I'm having a hard time understanding what you're playing. sorry. tap nantuko for counter and level up my tuskcaller end of turn.
draw, flicker derevi end of turn, this time getting an elephant from {kazandu tuskcaller}. pass 40/6
Away from deck, maybe for the night. Sorry.
Away from deck, maybe for the night. Sorry.
sure. no problem.
want to finish this today? I can play until 2 ish
Sorry for delay.
Make five cats.
Draw. Plains. Attach {Avacin's collar} to one cat token. Attack {shuko} to another. Attach {mask of memory} to another. Attach {basilisk collar} to another.
Attack with all non summoning sicknesscats. That's 14 2/2 cats, four equipped as above. Blocks? Pass after.
40?/2
i'll tap my tuskcaller to make another elephant and block the one with the mask and one normal one with 2 elephants. then i'll block the one with the shuko with my phantom nantuko, block a normal 2/2 with derevi. I'll tap out to put another level on my tuskcaller and use {mistmeadow witch} to exile the cat with the basilisk collar. how much damage do I take? I don't think any of my creatures die.
I think you killed five, including all the equipped ones except not the one with {avacin's collar}. So that's nine that got through and you take 19. After combat equip everything back into Kemba and pass.
tap nantuko for a counter end of turn. draw, blink derevi end of turn getting another elephant, pass 21/7
Make six cats.
Draw. {dark steel citadel}. So. Much. Land. Flood.
Move {mask of memories}, {trusty machete}. {basilisk collar}. And {shuko} onto four different cat tokens. Attack with those four and with ten normal 2/2 cat tokens
Kemba and the six new tokens left back to block.
After, move everything back to Kemba and pass.
40/2
ok. exile the basilisk collar one with mistweadow witch. tap the tuskcaller for an elephant. block the machete one with nantuko. block the shuko one with an elephant, the mask of memory one with another elephant, and 3 normal ones with my other elephants. how much damage do I take?
Yay your back! I'll respond soon.
Seven of mine died. One elephant died fighting shuko. You take 14 from the seven unblocked ones.
Your turn.
I think I have to concede here, I can't deal with the large amounts of cats on your side of the board. Also, having 3 EDH wall games going on at once is kinda hard. Good game! Maybe we can play some more standard after I finish a wall game or 2?
Sure. GG!
