Hold on one second!!!

Look at the hour long video I posted and fast forward to 14:00. The correct play from my opponents end would have been to select my 4/4 Land-Creature and have me sacrifice the Eldrazi Scion along with Omnath. He most likely wanted for me to keep the Eldrazi Scion and force me to lose the Omnath and 4/4 Land-Creature. He didn't read the clause about "nonland" permanent which my Land-Creature is not. Assuming he was about to make the correct play, I should've sac'd the Eldrazi Scion to save Omnath. Ulamog would exile Omnath and 4/4, I would be short 1-mana, I should've fetched for 2 Basics before Ulamog attacked, and a top deck land would be need for the win.

Is Tragic Arrogance bugged? Could my opponent target select my Land-Creature?


It's not bugged. There's nothing that prevents the Tragic Arrogance caster from selecting land creatures neither in the card text nor in the game. That even makes a lot of sense, because land creatures can't be sacrificed anyway. I remember myself casting TA and killing everything the opponent had except his awakened land.

I feel if people didn't know what everyone was playing the deck would have stolen more games

I just woke up to this...

The only way I could have woken better is if I won the Powerball.

Nighthawk, +1 beer to you!

I'll try to update the links as fast as I can but I do have a full-time job and I'm shirking it to make this post. After work tonight I'll get the thread up to date.

I don't think there's any way to avoid spoilers in the thread unless everyone suddenly agrees to make every single post behind a spoiler tag.

Hey I was out for the Weekend;

Just watched Gemini's Match vs T1shirt.

It is my personal opinion that Gemini's build may be too greedy manawise, although it's close, and he didn't get punished for it. I love his card choices though. I generally also come off as not always having the best or most cordial of relations with Gemini.

But here's the truth: that was some good showmanship and some great play ! Cudos to both !

Gonna watch the rest of the stuff :)

RNGesus did a number on you. Something that's tough to legislate for but with the other rounds hopefully it evens out for you. Did Danny record the match, you know for the laughs (j/k)?

I don't think so. I think they'd be really boring to watch tho. In the second match, I was surfing the net for most of the second half

I can't blame RNGesus too much. This is why I think people that say decks got God draws are dumb. I don't think I could have had a stronger opening four turns in the first match after a mulligan to six. He also got the cards he needed so it washed. In the second game, I had the best opening hand I've ever seen for that deck but never drew a fourth land.

Nah, I'm dumb with the computer

Danny and I owe it to the organisers to make it to the finals against each other so that it doesn't get broadcast and voiding the whole purpose of this tournament

Tip to streamers or maybe just to CGB, I don't know if this only affected him. When we were playing our match I could hear his commentary as game 1 was starting. I know it is important for his content creation, so I was left with a moral quandary. Do I listen in secretly and just let it benefit me, do I let him know and make a choice, or just take the moral high ground (debatably anyway). I chose option 3 which to me was just to mute my tv. I don't like duels music anyway and I seldom use a mic, so it was no big deal. I also let CGB know he may have this problem in future matches.

Any streamers run into this and know how to correct for it?
