Cool story. Tell me another?

I have a feeling that once personal bans are implemented, you will disappear to half of Gathering.

Double strike, I know I should know this but, if a creature has it and it's first hit kills it does the other strike go through, without having trample ability, or does the block stop it all together

It kills the blocker. And then stops. As only one target is legal. Unless it had trample.

A blocker is a target, is it not?  Since you have to TARGET a creature to block it.  May not say that in so many words, but it still makes sense. haha

Soooo shroud creatures can't block or be blocked?  Targeting has nothing to do with attacking and blocking.  (except for provoke, but that's an ability)

Screw that. I'm targeting your creature when I declare blockers so it cannot change.


BlackJester

Assigning =/= targeting.  I get what you're saying, but there is a difference.  Mainly, that otherwise Hexproof creatures would be unblockable.

Kuberr

Roger that oh all knowing god of magic.

BlackJester

So you think Hexproof creatures are unblockable?  How long have you been playing for?

Kuberr

I didn't say that?

I'm just tired of talking to you.

Well, you're saying that you target a creature to block it.  So if you can't target it, how could you block it?

BlackJester

I'm not trying to be a pain here, I just don't want to confuse new players that are reading this.

Why you gotta be like that, Kubes?   ::)
