      @andrewsparkes8829 4 роки тому +6

      @@petemagnuson7357 Nope. You get to choose the way the ETB abilities go on the stack after they've entered (this may be what you're thinking of). But they all enter together first, before this, and all immediately see each other before this. This is why when 2 creatures at once enter with Cathar's Crusade, each will get 2 counters, but you can choose which CC ETB trigger goes on first. But the whole way they can do that (put 2 counters on each other) is that they both previously entered simultaneously before this.

      2. The first ever North 100 Beejlander by proxy (same concept as the highlander by proxy stream, but with Beejlander decks).
      3. The first ever North 100 *reverse* Beejlander by proxy (non-highlander players build a Beejlander deck, that the North 100 co-hosts get to pilot).

      I used to get fridge magnet white board things (as in the flexible sheets that are magnetic) and cut them up into card-sized pieces. Also made some half-, quarter- and eighth-sized pieces to scribble P/T changes, added keywords, "Don't untap", etc on top of existing cards. Made recall so much easier and meant my 77/77 Omnath Locus of Mana simply had a half-card-sized board with a scribbled number rather than 13 d6s or 4 d20s!

    1:05:00 Serge I think that on the attack Ben makes with 2 5/5 artifacts and the manifest you have to block a 5 with rider, take 9, and then bounce the new manifest EOT. This lets you hit with Yuriko and see another card, and if you're REALLY lucky you kill Wheeler with the damage, drain, and extra card in some combination.

      And the rakdos one is either
      1) a man sized metal coiled spring heated up to white-hot temperatures and then wrapped around the one who's "bathing". Hottest spring around.
      2) a place where they set you on fire then throw you in a lake. (If this is before or after you die is entirely down to the whims of whatever cultist set you ablaze to begin with).
      Or
      3: a regular hot spring expect for the fact that, at the end, they trap you in the water and boil you alive.
      Knowing the Rakdos it could be more than one of these simultaneously.
      P.S as for the best spring to ACTUALLY go to. My personal thoughts are you go to the Boros for beautiful angels/people and inspirational conversations. It's either that or the Selesnya for the beautiful scenery.
      Boros for me. I imagine you could have some enlightening conversations with the angels once they're a bit mellowed out by the intrinsically relaxing nature of a hot spring. Plus, you know, they're pretty. I imagine the Boros angels might be a bit intense under normal circumstances :/.
