  • @ashleyhamilton5064
    @ashleyhamilton5064 4 місяці тому +22

    If you could play cards exiled with Gix at any time, it would have the line of text, "You may play these cards without paying their mana cost for as long as they remain exiled." Since it doesn't tell you that, they have to be cast immediately. Like with Gonti or other similar cards. Or maybe the line, "For as long as you control, Gix, Yawgmoth Praetor."

    • @atk9989
      @atk9989 4 місяці тому +3

      Yep, every single effect that is not a right then effect specifically says so. If it doesn't say you can wait then you can not wait.

    • @the_r4ts
      @the_r4ts 4 місяці тому

      Or "You may play those cards ... until end of turn". But the upside of the phrasing is it ignores timing restrictions, allowing you to cast any spell out of your opponent's deck on their end step :>

    You saved my morning commute! I was stuck on the same lifegain deck you played a couple of months ago for so long because I just could not get enough wildcards to build any other fun decks (cause I'm a cheapskate and avoid buying gems). With only 5 rares spent I was able to amend to this deck and it is so much more fun and interactive than just smashing Benalia and Voice of the blessed and get shutdown by lockdown!

    So, about Gix's wording, I think it is the same as Etali. When you have a card like Gonti, it says "as long as it stays in exile", where some red spells, bleh, say "until the ond of your turn" or "until the end of your next turn"

    24:10 No, there's absolutely no way they win there. They've already spent two Rages, they've got no units on board, you've got 40 fucking life, and they don't even have any spelunkings down! They can't even wipe the board or they die, that opponent is absolutely just dead to rights there. What they needed to do (if they could) is Rage the bat for 1, play an untapped land, and wipe the board, but they decided to kill Gix instead.

    • @zappelins8942
      @zappelins8942 4 місяці тому +1

      It could be a turn 1 optimization thing. This deck has no cards which cost only 1 black mana and nothing else but has 10 which cost 1 white mana. So a basic plain allows you to play both a plain and one of those cheap 1 mana spells on turn 1. And this deck has a lot of white/black lands so you shouldn't be running short on black mana on later turns.
