Lands in front of spells

I like to actually mix them up together to really annoy people

You should shuffle them at untap and relay them out randomly

I only play on glass tables and place all my permanents face down (morphs I play face up) so if you wanna see my permanents you gotta look under the table. also, Im always wearing a kilt. (okay, I dont. but I should!)

But that's not how people organize it. People are not filling the "empty space" with lands. They're keeping that empty space and switching the lands and dudes...   its a nice try but invalid.

Lands
Dudes
Empty space

Is really

Dudes
Lands
Empty space

Nobody freaking has their lands touch the opponents cards....

I play with my lands at the top of my playmat and dudes right under. Empty space for hand, etc under that.

Edited to add:
And my point was that if someone did that (put empty space at the top of the mat) no one would complain because he's lands in back. And yet the permanents you "care about" are the same distance away.

Also, when I switch around (for my opponents comfort if they complain) I do just put my lands behind my dudes... My dudes don't change position on the mat.

I wonder if anyone plays lands on the right side of a playmat and creatures on the left

Me and my friends do that of we are tight on space... And one of my friends has to start stacking his elve tokens ontop of his forests

I have a friend that plays lands on the right 45 degree angle tap. It's weird but he keeps different lands separate and normally plays mono colour.

Foreign cards are perfectly fine by me. I just feel that if you are going to play foreign cards, be prepared to be constantly asked what they do. Its a little rough on new players, as this opens the door for cheaters to lie about what a card is and take advantage of the situation, but unfortunately that cannot be helped. And in my experience most people arent cheaters, and the ones who are a bit shady are known for it at their lgs and there is usually at least one other person close enough to notice if any new players are being taken advantage of. We all gotta take care of each other like that. We were all new once.

A little off topic but this reminds me of a scenario I've seen a few times: New player, has never seen the card {Cryptic Command} before. Opponent plays a full art Cryptic, and tells the newer player what the card does. Newer player gives him the "f-ing a-hole" face and follows it up with a "No really, what does it do?"

I know it was made as a joke, but it's so ridiculous 😆. "Um, this card does everything.".

Cryptic command
Instant
1 colourless, 3 blue

Choose 2:

- you win the game
- you win the game
- your opponent loses the game
- your opponent loses the game

That is what it does.

Ewww, not a big fan of the 45 degree tap unless the player is really good at making sure his or her lands are always straight when untapped. I have a buddy who does that and I'm constantly asking him what land is tapped/untapped.

This^ the 45 degree just tilts me lol

[MuggyWuggy]

Ugh 45 degree tap is annoying
I always ask - is that tapped ?

[redwolv]

You guys sound really hypocritical now. You complain about the 45 degree tap cause it can be confusing and your not sure what is or is not tapped and it is annoying to have to ask about it.

when afew pages ago this topic was filled with, "get gud", keep track of your oppoenents board state. Not my fault your confused.

I know this is gonna get negged, but hopefully one of you will realize i am right about how hypocritical this is.

[Mattao19]

Not hypocritical at all actually lands I. Front creates 0 confusion. Whereas tapping 45 degree tapping creates the "oh that wasn't tapped" confusion

[MuggyWuggy]

When people Retap 45 degree angle lands 😒

Different compared to someone who has lands in front, those lands you know for sure are untapped, whereas then 45 tap could be someone forgetting to untap properly when they are in a rush. It's like - is your caryatid tapped or not?

[redwolv]

Not saying it doesn't but doing stuff like mixing land and mana dorks creates the same confusing of "oh yeah i have a blocker"
