Playing 5CB (me) vs 5cc. Opponent is at 2. I untap and draw Cloudthresher, which he doesn't know I've boarded in yet. I decide he has no way to gain life at instant speed, no way to kill me at instant speed from my life total, and no way to counter an activated ability. So I pass the turn.

Then I read Evoke and discover that it plays the spell.

I had Esper Corscucants and Stoic Angel and could have cast Finest Hour to win, but didn't see it, and cast Magister Sphinx instead putting myself from 7 to 10 and died the next turn to 4 creatures (two were Hissing Iguanar) and a cycled Resounding Thunder.

Presumably if he had played the Finest Hour he attacks for 4 with a lone creature, then attacks for 7 with both creatures for lethal? Rather than just 4 and then 5 if he had no Cormorants.

No? Cormorants and Stoic have 3 power and exalted makes one of them have 4 power...

I wonder what plan peebles has for this exchange.

I want to kill him asap before he can draw any outs. I decide to go and get [card]Eladamri, Lord of Leaves[/card] to both forestwalk past his blocker and make any non black removal or further blockers he draws close to irrelevent.
So i cast summoners pact search for Eladamri, think for a second.. decide that i want to get [card]Elvish Champion[/card] instead and give him an on the board kill when i have him in two turns if i do what i originally intended to do.

I dont know what the hell i was thinking, or why i thought it waas a good idea to change my mind, but i do know i deserved to lose for making that play.

I found this thing I wrote, which had an unfunny parody of Zvi's old column that I'm not including.

QUOTE
You are in game 3 of a hard-fought match, and things aren't looking good for you.  Your opponent is G/W and has played a lot of big monsters and then evoked Meadowboon to make things worse.  You played [card]Colfenor's Plans[/card], hoping for answers, but finding only six lands and a [card]Violet Pall[/card].  As you started this turn, your only creature was a [card]Wolf-Skull Shaman[/card], and in desperation you used [card]Lash Out[/card] on one of your opponent's creatures hoping to find something to trigger Kinship -- and you did!  However, your pair of 2/2s is a bit unprepared to deal with your opponent's board of 4/4 [card]Ambassador Oak[/card], 4/4 [card]Briarhorn[/card], and 3/3 [card]Burrenton Bombardier[/card].  To make things slightly worse, your opponent topdecks and plays a [card]Kinsbaile Skirmisher[/card], choosing to give his Ambassador Oak +1/+1 before attacking with his 5/5, 4/4, and 3/3 flier.

Your only card remaining in hand is [card]Incremental Growth[/card], but you also have the Violet Pall removed with Colfenor's Plans.  You have plenty of mana available.  You do have a Shaman on top of your deck, so you'll get another 2/2 Wolf in your upkeep if the Wolf-Skull Shaman lives.  What's the play?


Also my notes say you are at 7 and he is at 9, and I didn't write down the solution, but I think there must have been one for me to write this up.

I'd Pall the Oak and chump the Briarhorn with the Wolf token, then untap and use Growth to give the Faerie +3/+3, the new token +2/+2, and the Shaman +1/+1. Then, hold my guys back to block and hope I can overwhelm him with Wolves before he draws anything good. That seems too easy, though.

You can swing here with the shaman, leaving your 4/4+4/4 back against his 4/4, 3/3, 2/2. It means you're dead to pump, but you also increase your clock by a turn.

I'd pall the flier and chump the oak before holding with a 5/5, a 4/4 and the 3/3 shaman.
