Sorry time is limited this week all over the place and to that end i am rushing the show notes. The show was mostly Modern Masters 2017 spoilers as well as talking about our challenge decks this week. Oh and a really good email from Dave about judgecast and how it is a good tool for all magic players but doubly so for wannabe judges.
All of you got the call wrong. You had a “looking at extra cards” error, which was separate from your hand. You gained knowledge of 7 cards, instead of 6. The resolution is to separate the known portion of the deck (bottom 5 from earlier Marvel activation)., then select a random card from the 7 you saw and shuffle that back into the unknown portion of the deck. You select one of the remaining 6 cards to cast and finish resolving your marvel activation.
A player takes an action that may have enabled them to see the faces of cards in a deck that they were not entitled to see.
This penalty is applied only once if one or more cards are seen in the same action or sequence of actions.
Examples
A. A player accidentally reveals (drops, flips over) a card while shuffling her opponent’s library.
B. A player pulls up an extra card while drawing from his library.
C. A player sees the bottom card of her deck when presenting it to her opponent for cutting/shuffling.
Philosophy
A player can accidentally look at extra cards easily and this infraction handles situations where a dexterity or rules error has led to a player seeing cards in a library that they shouldn’t have.
Cards are considered to be in a library until they touch cards in another set.
Once those cards have joined another set, the infraction is handled as a Hidden Card Error or Game Rule Violation.
Players should not use this penalty to get a “free shuffle” or to attempt to shuffle away cards they don’t want to draw; doing so may be Unsporting Conduct — Cheating. Players also are not allowed to use this penalty as a stalling mechanism. The library is already randomized, so shuffling in the revealed cards should not involve excessive effort.
Additional Remedy
Shuffle any previously unknown cards into the random portion of the deck, then put any known cards back in their correct locations.
This weeks show is like 50 stories about how Samius is a shitty magic player and how he only doesn’t get removed from any event he is in because he is so handsome….
On this weeks show Samius is all worried about the upcoming PPTQs and how copycat gets wrecked by Mardu cars. Foom Foom… 😦
In other news Travis is selling his collection, we ran down the challenge lists from last week’s show and the guy’s rattle off lines from their favorite love songs.
On this weeks show we have a couple of decklists from listeners to run over. I mean down. Okay, run over… But we also talked about the ProTour and Remmie’s sick draft last FNM. We have a new game to sign off with, it is in early stages for sure. But could be sweet…
OG Culling the Weak Art
Oh and another Deck Builder Challenge was issued. Who can make the best Standard Tezzeret’s Scissors list by next show… I hope it is you.
All this and a funny moment or three, like how i am cheating people again. Damn it Sam! Read your own cards!
On this weeks show we tackle user questions/decks as well as run down the decks from last week’s Travis issued challenge. Well my deck from said challenge anyway.
All this and I finally get to answer the would you rather questions!
Troll On!
Aid Challenge – Samius
Not sure where we talked about this list, but if you are hiding under a rock, here it is.
On this weeks show Travis scares me in to believing that he is ready to really buckle down and focus on improving at playing Magic. So, yeah. That is not what is happening. Ttavis’ goal is so not where i took things. Good thing too, thought the world was ending for real.
On this weeks show Samius shares his bad beat story. It was rough and my deck took a massive poo on me.. 😦
We also talked about the bannings. Sorry. Yeah, i don’t want to hear about the bannings any more either. Somewhere we got to talk about new standard and the first first post aether revolt decks.
On this weeks show Travis lets me know just how wrong I am about everything in the world…. How I could ever mix up the below cards when Travis types Samnophocer in the show notes? Yeah, I am completely at fault.
I am also deep into theory crafting my deck for this weekend. Mardu control. I will post a full list on next weeks show with what I hope is a sweet tournament report.
