    Such a cool concept of letting the 3-0ers pick and ban a card from the cube. Rotating cards out of a cube and putting bangers in is really enjoyable to watch.

      It also gives the players some sense of ownership. Luis knows which cards which person added, and he gets to say, “I added this.”

    Really like the 3-0 code a new card. Would love to hear the ones that were removed. Also if you're aware of others that were added by people it would be fun hearing about them. It's also interesting hearing what deck or reason a card that was added or removed goes/ went to.

  • @sqrlmonger
    @sqrlmonger 11 месяцев назад

    1:13:25 - I think your opponent would draw off Skullclamp in this situation.
    There are a couple of rules this might fall under but the ones I am thinking of all seem to point to that. First, permanents that leave/enter at the same time "see" each other (e.g. Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle & Scapeshift). Second is the "look-back" rule for leaves BF triggers. Third, (Prismari's Command)'s wording is ordered so that the damage is dealt first and it kills the artifact last.
    It's certainly always possible I am missing some nuance, but I think one of (if not multiple of) these apply here.

    • @Willd2p2
      @Willd2p2 10 месяцев назад +1

      Bit late here but you are missing something. Luis explained it later but Skullclamp is destroyed directly while the creature is dealt damage. This means that the Skullclamp is immediately removed from the battlefield while resolving the spell but the creature only dies after the spell finishes resolving as a result of state based effects checking to see if it has lethal damage marked on it. For the same reason if the creature had base 3 toughness (so 2 toughness with Skullclamp equipped) it wouldn't die at all in the same situation. If the creature was being destroyed directly instead of being dealt damage then your third point would be relevant and the order that things are listed on the card would be important. If the spell was killing both creature and Skullclamp at the same time (e.g. Planar Cleansing) then your first point would be relevant.

    • @dstreetz91
