In 2hg, Blatent Thievery under the Mirror makes opponents sad



Have you ever Blatant Thieveried a Mirror with Blantant Thievery imprinted on it? I have! And I had my own mirror out at the time with RoR on it. It was awesome.

Lots of creatures, overwhelm my opponent.
This is why I like elves outside of dotp: draw ~20-30 cards in one turn and cast everything, then swing for a billion.

You are both rational and emotional. You value creation and discovery, and feel strongly about what I create. At best, you're innovative and intuitive. At worst, you're scattered and unpredictable.

Oh it was, but my opponent wasn't. He didn't imprint the mirror on his upkeep, so that was mistake #2. Mistake #1 was not casting the Thievery to just take my already-imprinted mirror. I made him pay for that one in Spades.

Winning with Goblins is the best.


Devil's advocate? Or do you just enjoy driving all the tactical players to a life of alcoholism?

And I agree with the other sentiments, anytime I beat Goblins I get an immense surge of satisfaction. Especially with Crosswinds. 


What's not to love about crushing players who keep durdle, do-nothing hands? I do the community a service here. I teach those new players the importance of early interaction and provide opportunities to the rest to earn their moments of satisfaction if and when they're able to beat the list.

Even people who play goblins still have to appreciate the value of goblins dying though ... goblin grenade, ember hauler, arms dealer... like I said, everyone wins when goblins die.

The Goblin deck has more to teach players about Magic than any of the other decks.

1. If you can't survive a weenie rush your deck doesn't cut it. 
2. Card advantage only matters if you survive long enough to use up your cards.

But to answer the original questions, the most satisfying wins are the ones where you play to a standstill and then topdeck your way to victory!  It's also the most crushing kind of defeat.

1. That is just silly, not all decks have the tools to deal with weenie rushes no matter how much you customize it.

I meant constructed magic in general, not DotP.

But yeah, some decks will just lose to Goblins more often than not.  Jace could really use an Evacuate or more Sleeps, as has been mentioned a billion times...

My fave wins are always against people who say 'GG' on their turn, thinking they've got the game sewn up

Had a match earlier today. I was playing SS against ED. It was a really good game, backwards and forwards, until the point where we both had no cards in hand, and the only things on the board were a Knight of Glory with a Sword of Vengeance attached on his side, and I had a single Spiritmonger . One hit would kill either player

So on his turn, he says 'GG' and swings, I pause the timer and say 'U sure?' He says 'u can't block cos pro-black'

I change Spiritmonger to red and block, killing his Knight. I swing for the win on my turn

That's why I always say 'Don't say GG until the game is over'
