My man called a judge on himself. Bryant a class act as always

[@TheEPICStorm]

Thank you, but you should never be afraid to call a judge. It's also just the right thing to do!

[@daltonmekis]

He did exactly what he was supposed to. As soon as either player notices any error, you are supposed to call a judge immediately, regardless of who made the error or how easy you think the issue is to resolve

[@schlessinger90]

As Bryant multiple time said on the podcast, in paper he tries to push these actions to see if the oppo sees them. It is not unintentional from Bryant!

[@TheEPICStorm]

@@schlessinger90 I have literally never said to try to create illegal game actions. This was not intentional at all, mistakes happen.

[@daltonmekis]

@@schlessinger90 that would be cheating. You are totally allowed to cast things into an opponent’s chalice, since it is a legal game action and it is up to your opponent to remember their chalice trigger. But Lavinia says that Doomsday simply cannot be cast. Lavinia does have a triggered ability to counter free spells and you are allowed to cast things into that. But it’s just cheating and a game rule violation if you try to cast that Doomsday there. It was def not intentional

[@FLEXmen1]

Shout out to the opponent. Funny banter. Wholesome interractions. I love the vibe of them!

[@TheEPICStorm]

Yeah, Ryan was a great opponent

[@shwA12]

This video really just kind of has it all. Sweet vintage gameplay, great interaction between two skilled players, and some important takeaways on handling situations while ensuring you do the right thing. As always, thanks for putting out the content.

It's always nice to find an opponent who's on this level of chill. A great match all-around.

[@TheEPICStorm]

Thanks, I hope you're doing well!

[@SpiritSquadMTG]

@TheEPICStorm thanks! Working on normalcy 🙏🏾 Glad to see EW looked like a good time.

[@RyantheGumby]

I genuinely loved this. The quad clear camera angles, the lack of glare, the match interaction between you two, the high level gameplay and the respect. Mint. Only thing they could do better is to add digital OBS filters to the microphone to eliminate the background sound, but it didn't bother me at all.

[@TheEPICStorm]

Fair enough.

[@anzidmtg]

great feedback, any recommended filters?

[@RyantheGumby]

@@TheEPICStorm my main point was to emphasize how much I liked this content, I was locked in! It didn't really come across in my comment, but the constructive element of it was very much secondary. There was even a part of me that liked the background chatter of the massive Magic event hall 😂 Anyways, wanted to clarify that it wasn't meant or intended to be negative 🥰

It actually got me to seek out more Card Titan live coverage from this year and previous years.

The streaming of this event was truly superb. Set-up, quality, everything. And it enabled me to see some sweet Doomsday action! Awesome match!

Wow. These guys look so fun to play against. One of the things I didn't like back when I played MTG was the attitudes of some players. Your opponents attitude can really affect your enjoyment in a game.

Storm King’s Thunder is such a great card to name with Demonic Consultation! also i didn’t know you were allowed to have paper sideboard guide :0

Yep, Comp REL allows one piece of paper and you can write on both sides if you wish

[@TheEPICStorm]

Yup!

i really liked the ending of game 2 you fight the lavinia to draw out interaction with the force (because after force is shut off after) and dive under with your flustertorm protected win. =)

[@TheEPICStorm]

A little bit of luck drawing Flusterstorm that turn

[@jamesheyworth4370]

Going down to 5 cards on game 3 after a promising start and a close game 2 then seeing DR into Doomsday. This is why I don't play competitive. My emotions would be all over the place. I think i'll leave the competitive games to you poker-faced stoic stalwarts. Well played Bryant.

[@TheEPICStorm]

[@GGun1t]

I’m curious on why you run consider over preordain? Edit: I think I’ve already asked you this in the past lol. You’d prefer to have more chances to hold up countermagic, the card selection isn’t significant, and Consider has synergy with delve?

@@lordndrew mistakes happen to all of us

[@lordndrew]

@ all good Bryant. Learnt a lot of storm play from watching your games.

[@ChailFair]

I believe you miss sequenced the consult/oracle play. Oracle should be played first, then with trigger on stack, consult. In this case it probably didnt matter as they were mostly tapped out and you had fluster but if they had MBT, they had you.

[@TheEPICStorm]

@@ChailFair this is a line that would’ve lost and is a base-line level 0 play. I was on level 1 of playing mind games with the opponent to get my more difficult spell to resolve.

[@ChailFair]

@@TheEPICStorm I realized once I got to the part where you told the opp you had suspected he had negation + blue card lol. I see why standard sequencing there was incorrect. Damn good job man. Well played indeed!

[@jilalgaming7573]

He did not appear to be attempting to cheat but if my opponent is staring that intently at their deck while shuffling with their cards facing them I'm calling a judge (Reference 26:37). I'm aware of MTR.10 and the REL of this event but let's be honest, you know that you yourself like most competitive players look away when shuffling.

[@TheEPICStorm]

It's pre-sideboarding. It just doesn't matter, but even so, I didn't notice it at the time.

[@mad1337nes]

I love the internet, and all the dumb things people try and nitpick over. Looking at cards (trying to flood or screw) only works when you're handling your opponents deck.... and only after the game has already started and you know the board state. Both of which aren't the case. Moreover, it's customary to shuffle the opposing deck in between games (though one could argue there's less of a chance of it happening with vintage cards in play; Bryant still does it a few seconds after your timestamp)

[@jilalgaming7573]

​@@mad1337nes I love the internet, and all the dumb things people say about situations they have little understanding of. You don't know what this guy is doing when he isn't in a feature match and if his default mode is to stare at his deck while shuffling I would at least be kind enough to my fellow players to inform the judge as this is at best poor sportsmanship and at worst intentionally cheating, in the event it causes a problem later on. If you are still unsure, why don't you look at Bryant while he shuffles.

[@jilalgaming7573]

@@TheEPICStorm I see how you shuffle c:

[@mad1337nes]

@@jilalgaming7573 I guess Bryant beat me to the original comment, because I was trying to be nice and handle you with drooler gloves but to reiterate: It doesn't matter, didn't matter, and was during boarding. Look at how he shuffles every other time that it actually does matter. So you're making nothing (your opinion's worth) out of nothing, tranime pfp
