This is kind of a follow-up to this post I made a bit ago.

I saw some wild decks in my pod at my new LGS tonight, and wanted to immortalize my experience to the eternity of the Internet.

Tonight, over four games:

Guy looped their [[Sensei's DiviningTop]] with cost reducers and a card draw trigger and drew maybe 80% of their deck trying to stave off imminent death. Hit [[Teferi's Protection]] and then lost to nontargeted mill. It was the greatest last ditch effort I've seen in my 10 months back to paper Magic.

Then I had to try and figure out a line against [[Yarok, the Desecrated]], a [[Panharmonicon]], and a [[Conjurer's Closet]]. Was playing my [[Esix, Fractal Bloom]] deck with a [[Mirror Box]] in play and so so desperately wanted a bunch of Yarok's of my own, knowing I'm good on ETB triggers, too. I got close, but the stars never aligned, and he ultimately killed us all with creature ETB removal followed by copious amounts of combat and aristocrat-style damage.

And in another game, the third guy cascaded into just about every 0 mana value suspend card - which turns out are pretty good when you don't have to suspend them. He was merciful.

But I won one with my elf ball [[Imaryl, Elfhame Elite]] deck because someone tried to wipe the board around turn six or seven and I was pretty loaded with dorks and utility and my commander. I don't remember the exact spell, but it destroyed creatures and lands. But I won because the only card in my hand was the goddamn jankiest proxy you've ever seen. Guess I have to find one, now. Everyone lost basically everything and I've got 18 creatures and mana to burn. Swing, swing, swing, motherfuckers.

Note: They were actually all good guys.

When MtG is awesome, MtG is fucking awesome.
