    • @alanbeatty4314
      @alanbeatty4314 2 роки тому +13

      He explained why he did it in the video. Lady had a sac outlet on board in her commander, 11 tokens, a Zulaport Cutthroat in her graveyard, and a way to reanimate it on board.
      If he doesn't play Elesh Norn (and Jimmy doesn't exile Prossh with Mangara, which he may not), then Jimmy attacks, suddenly they both die to Lady on her next turn, before it gets back to him. By playing Elesh Norn, it's possible he dies to Jimmy the next turn, but he likely gets 1 more turn, because Jimmy won't want to kill him to keep his board. If Jimmy *does* exile Prossh, then Lady can reanimate the Cutthroat, rendering Elesh Norn a terrible play, and the next turn, recast Prossh and kill them both.
      If he doesn't deal with those tokens right then, it's almost impossible to beat Lady. He still lost to Jimmy, but If he'd gotten a Homeward Path or a boardwipe, he still had a chance after the Elesh Norn was stolen.
      I think he made the right play.

So the creature still does deal damage. In later sets they changed it so that there won't be misunderstanding. I.e. Masters Edition or Collectors' Edition.
