I do believe he asked if Josh misplayed.

Why did Sam (repeatedly) go second? He gets a turn two kill if he's got the right hand, after all.

the camera angles in this are awful. the constant switching to irrelevant objects are making us miss plays. who ever is responsible should be punished.

Yes, Josh misplayed. He could have burned the infect guy on his turn when Sam couldn't have done anything about it, but instead he waited until Sam's turn, where Sam was able to counter the spell.

For like the last 8+ PT's I've been complaining in these threads how they keep showing face closeups and other useless stuff instead of the game  (and based on twitter comments etc I'm certainly not the only one). Yet it's still constantly happening.

Nice going showing us Josh' face DURING THE WHOLE FINAL COUNTERWAR that decided game 2 of the final.

You're not the only one who's been complaining about that. Whoever the director is -- he/she is horrible and should have been replaced a long time ago.

Because in the matchup he was the control, it's pretty much that simple. Counter-Cat and Affinity were the only non-combo decks. While he would have been able to win by just smacking with the Nexus, his opponent was more opt to win by chipping at him, thus being on the draw got him closer to the combo (think of the "you go first" as it's own cantrip)

You need to fix the camera angles. 
I would like to see some better commentators.  Get Osyp in there.  Holy cow that would be amazing.

Get Buehler and Flores back in the booth. There were no moments of facepalming, there was actual analysis,  there was no being treated like a 2-year-old. Hagon is the single worst thing to ever happen to pro tour coverage. I think everyone agrees. The next worst thing is the person who likes to show the person's face during the action and the board when nothing's going on. Get rid of him too. The third thing that needs to change is the lack of coverage of the swiss, and we could use better streaming hardware and software. GPs get covered better than PTs, and that's just silly.

So, how would I use a card that has a large in the top half and "sui?l? -- pu?? ?is?q" across the middle?

Winning is not important if:

1.  You win by a blowout.

2.  You pay billions of dollars in cards to win.   If you like wasting money just to win one game, while you could have saved it to lose a few and end up winning more in the future, then it is fine by me.


what?

do you ceremonially light your deck on fire after a win?

I think the most awkward situation at the moment is simply the Myr Welder / Equipment / Licid / Aura craziness, but I'm pretty sure he's aware of it.



If the most awkward thing going on right now involves Licids, I declare victory.

Dear Mage24365,

You are totally awesome. Thank you so much. I hope you are able to dine in Paradise without kicking the bucket to actually get there, and that every dollar you ever make magically becomes two more.

I don't think there are any cards like that.

There are things that prevent you from activating activated abilities, things that increase their cost, and things that counter them, but I don't think anything triggers from them specifically.

There are things that trigger from targeting, so that might be relevant, but I can't think of anything that triggers from targeting a player.

I'm almost positive there's nothing that triggers from damage being prevented.
