Card Quirks

[The1337Magician]

What are some cards that aren't necessarily good, but just makes you angry when your opponent plays them?
What are some little sayings or inside jokes in your Magic group?
What is Something you invented that saves time in organization, shuffling, etc?

I hate it when people play Pacifism or O-ring. Why can't it just leave the board instead of sitting right in front of me?!

I hate people who play Lands 1st. As in putting their lands in a row in front, then permanents and things behind.

And people who flick their cards and have nothing to play. They see Tom Martell or some other pro doing it, so they imagine it's the sign of a good player.

Or when they slide the bottom part of their card along the table after the draw, a la every pro player ever. It seems like one person started it, then all of the other pros started doing it, an it trickled down to every LGS ever.

I've been putting dual lands in my mono decks lately to throw things off.

When ever I  {Chronic Flooding} one of his lands he takes the land and puts it like 5ft from the game, so that he doesn't use it

Hehe, sooo evil with all the multicolor suff!

That drives me nuts, too. What's up with that? Are that tapping their permanents for mana back there? They gonna block my creatures with their land? What the hell is going on?

I've admittedly started doing that because of Miracle cards. Even if I'm playing a deck without them, I do it anyway. I felt it was a good habit to get into, and helps me eliminate a tell I may have had.

I do this a lot actually. Its more to psych my opponent out or to just keep my hands busy. I think better if I'm moving my body in some way.

What do you mean flick? As in how you flick someone? Why would you do that, it seems pointless

Paulo Vitor Damo Da Rosa, on of the best players in the game says it because it's harder to cheat with your lands in front because you could see something like an inconspicuous mana elf or the FTV (or any, for that matter) {Dryad Arbor} that could be a potential game breaker. Another reason for this is because it was in the old rule book.

One thing I had happen that rather annoys me is when people snatch up your cards to look at them. Is a "may I?" Really that hard? Also, I stack my {hinterland harbors} atop my {breeding pools}, and my opponent insisted that I could not stack them. I asked the judge and he said its fine, once on the field they have almost identical function, and told the guy to stop being a brat.

That's just dumb, who gets pissy over land stacks?
