This is why I left MTG, among a bunch of other factors all caused by WOTC themselves. Terrible company.

"T, Pay 1 life, Sacrifice Wooded Foothills: Search your library for a Mountain or Forest card, put it onto the battlefield, then shuffle." You have to do it in the order, as soon as you see someone shuffling and mixing cards around before pulling the land and placing it on the field, they are breaking the rules.

what a dickhead why would u do that, just enjoy the game of MTG ... loser

Rotpriest with mockingbird is OP

was better than Arena due to two headed giant

Alittle weird the TO wouldn't make them replay game 3 then. Though I would have also supported giving Tron the win.

Watching this after MH3 lol

I have the fetch lands and Rotpriests…I think I’ll build this for my local lgs

They were playing in Brazil but by American rules: “It’s not cheating unless you get caught”. Ridiculous.

I forgot who it was but they said that pretty much everyone who is a Magic pro is a cheater and the judges will even let them get away with it to.

Hia name is Portuguese not Spaniard 😂

It's honestly UNREAL how badly Modern Horizons wrecked the entire format

Nope 🎉

All this cheating could easily be stopped by forcing opponents to cut. Play should never resume when a player shuffles a deck, until the opponent cuts their deck or taps their deck indicating no cut desired. You could make a ruling in which you state. "Any player which shuffles a deck must give the deck to the opponent to be cut before any further play can proceed. If either opponent fails to cut a deck once offered (or tap the deck to indicate no cut is desired), and play proceeds, the player who offers the deck to be cut shall immediately forfeit. Players have a reasonable time limit (up to 10 seconds) to either cut an offered deck or tap it indicating no cut is desired. If a player does not cut the deck within this time limit, that player shall forfeit the game." Basically means, if you don't offer your opponent a cut of a deck YOU shuffle, you forfeit. If you do and the opponent does not cut or tap it. They forfeit. If you take an opponents deck and shuffle it, same thing. If you shuffle your opponents deck and do not offer it to be cut by the opponent, you forfeit. If you do and the opponent fails to cut or tap it. They forfeit. EASY.

Who else hates modern horizons?

I've just found this little gem of a video...nice job. I played DotP since it was fist released, had an amazing time on it. Found a little website of like-minded player (nogoblinsallowed) and even ran tournaments for both the xbox and computer communities for a few years and was able to get some prize support from WotC. An absolutely awesome time to be playing, imo. Problem i found was i don't think WotC knew what to do with this product, and Stainless (which was widely criticized as"brainless") translated a host of buggy features. The format for Duels was different and made for slightly less consistent decks, but it also made it fun and different yhan paper. Rarely did any card get to be overly powerful or ubiquious (Mwolvoni Acid-Moss not withstanding). There were some stategies that were underpowered or under represented, but it made for a fun experience. I miss this game and come back to it a few times a year. I look forward to seeing my next victim...i mean opponent!

I get Magic is a VERY VERY complicated game but Deflecting Palm is clear and defines YOU. Not Creature, not planeswalker but YOU. Fun note: Deflecting Palm gets around Shroud, Hexproof and Protection.

Why at 10:15 didnt you just add emrakul to your hand you had 7 open mana without the labrynth? Cast breach and just win instead of digging and risking it.

Anyway i can see a variation of this, in current meta (Nadu)? I play a variation of this deck and i struggle against Nadu (i usually have to resort to "regular" removal like path and solitude)

What software did you use in the video to test the deck? i got introduced to MtG like three weeks ago and use Forge because someone recommended it, but it looks like you're using something else :) i also use an elf-deck, but i focus on +1 counters. if it works out i got 4-5 9/9 elves in turn 5, all with trample. won 20:-577 a couple of days ago xD always nice to see how experienced players handle things :)

So basically, if oppo go to kill in resp, the triggers go on anyway right?

Alchemy horizon ruined the best format

WotC killed modern and MTG with it.

well i did unsub because i dont care about poker

This is such a huge stain on the pro scene

My funniest interaction was when i was playing Abzan Company (Combo) against a scapeshift player many years ago. I was 2 minutes late due to a phonecall, when i got there my opponent was understanding at first. That was until I started to combo off, i had cast Chord of Calling and was looking through my deck, he then decided to call the judge over and "quietly" request that I received a game loss due to being late to the table. The judge looked at him, then me, then at the boardstate (we were at turn 4, so its not like it was an empty board). Then proceded to give both of us warnings, me for the lateness, and my opponent for bad sportsmanship. He was informed that calling for a judge just as he was about to lose instead of at the start of the match was considered unsporting and if he did it again he would likely be disqualified. I won the game, and then ended up wrecking him in game 2 with spike feeder + archangel of thune.

Dude it is not news that every top MTG "proplayer" cheats, it just rare that anyone cares when they are caught.

Those that just need to win in any way possible. You need to get laid.

Sheoldred, or tendrils for necrodominance

Honestly I would think the rcq was rigged if that would happen to me... The card is such an obvious card that to get it wrong you either wouldn't know how to play mtg, or don't know how to read 😅

Cheating.. however, he did give a tiny flick of the hand right before the draw. Was the the cut offer? A disingenuous one for sure, but a technical one.

Ok so you didn't win on turn one like your video title says. What a load of bs click bait vid

This video perfectly represented the downfall of paper in general. 60% of the players in my state stopped playing after Kaladesh. The entire IP of Magic became like Fortnite and started making crossover skins of cards and non-canon characters like it's the Multiverse. Happy I got out.

You’ll probably want to play again in a year or two. Don’t sell your collection. Keep your bulk, and reserved list. You can sell the $40 format staples thoe

not what I expected, I appreciated the gameplay!

Always present your deck to your opponent for cutting/shuffling. Then if they don’t, they can’t complain about it. You are even allowed to reshuffle after your opponent cuts or shuffles. As long as the randomnization is good enough. Never trust your opponent. When in doubt you can even request a judge to shuffle.

Well... this dude got DQ'ed from the PT over the weekend for cheating.

Edrazi winter 2 electric bugaloo

I wonder how many games he actually cheated in this PT before the game with Javier Dominguez

"I think it's an OK combo deck" i fell from the chair

I was searching for the controversy at Amsterdam pro tour this june 2024 and saw this

Guys if we buy the box he might get sponsored again

SPONSOR THIS MAN. PLEEEEEASE

Welp, this kinda aged well.

game one if you exile emrakul instead of defiler and are still looking for through the breach. defiler on enter will get 15 +1+1 counters and have annihilator 15.

Back here after PT mh3. This is the fourth result when you Google Bart.

2024 and he got caught again lmao

He was just found cheated again in PT MH3

I am a simple man. I see through the breach and eldritch abominations, and I like and comment for the algorithm.

so all its about is money to play magic pepw
