wow yeah researching this format was awful. I got down some random obvious ideas, compared them, found the best, and threw it in without really exploring much of anything. kudos to those of you who found something actually good. I'm surprised not to see more path decks. I was really planning around path-plains-plated sliver being a real thing.
I gambled that there would be more 1CMC threats in this format than 2CMC threats (I could have run Supply // Demand rather than Stand // Deliver as my Disrupting Shoal feeder). Gamble fail. I still would have done poorly, but not _as_ poorly.

Thanks to whomever scored my games. I went through and scored my games then compared them to what was already there and I found some discrepancies but of course all of the issues were things that I overlooked and mistakes that I made so whomever scored my games thanks, I would have gotten it wrong.

That would be me. At first I thought Cry was a duress variant, and then I had to redo everything. Turns out basically nothing changes.

My initial responses to rules questions are usually just answers. If you want an explanation as to why, say so. Just because it says I'm there, I'm not necessarily there. I leave my browser open so I don't have to reload ~30 tabs. Anyone who wants to text duel me through either PM or chat can just PM me with a format (and a time if playing through chat). I don't play standard.
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?
We regret to inform you of Trevor Kidd's untimely demise in an unfortunate accident involving a mysteriously blown breaker box and a photophobic creature of unknown origin at his home near Renton, Washington. We at the Wizards Community apologize for any inconvenience or delay, and assure you we'll be preparing a replacement to assume his duties as soon as we finish warming up the cloning vats.
[02:47:46] It doesn't merely "come out of suspend" - you take the last time counter off, and then suspend triggers and say "now cast that! CAST IT NOOOOOW!" [02:47:49] Because suspend has no indoors voice

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.
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.
