Don't mean to discredit you and blame the misclick mulligan either, you played well and my inexperience with the deck started showing. Nah I totally get it, but my hand in the last game was super slow so if you've had a full grip with good cards (Thalia...) you'd probably have won

Toshimo I'm usually available after 5PM Eastern time, let me know when you're up for getting blood moon'd. I can probably swing some time this weekend too since I'm sad and alone. edit: Also, if you're okay with Cockatrice that may be better since there are definitely issues with Painter's Servant (and also Grindstone probably) on xmage, though we played on xmage last week and it wasn't a huge deal (because he hosed me up)

I think it would just be good form for your opponent to concede as soon as the combo is on the stack unless they have something to break it up.

Yeah, in the case where a combo would require that you manually grind out the actions, it's best to scoop. I got hit with a Top-Alter of the Brood combo and asked him to run through it once or twice to make sure I understood it, then scooped.

Network42 beat me 2-0. In game 1, my deck's slight chance of eating itself alive showed up as the first four cards Thought Lash exiled were Future Sight, Future Sight, Future Sight, and Laboratory Maniac. In game 2 he got me with a big ol' Elfball.

I'm trying to connect to the goon xMage server in the OP, but it says I have the wrong client version. However, didn't we say not to update xMage after round 1 (and I played round 2 on Cockatrice, so no updates in the past week for me)?

I don't want to spoil the surprise. I'll have the video up tonight or tomorrow. I will say that aside from that our games were probably some of the most boring games of magic ever played.

I think it would just be good form for your opponent to concede as soon as the combo is on the stack unless they have something to break it up. Here's what happens, I've seen 2 different situations: 1. I have Painter and Grindstone in play, and I activate Grindstone on my opponent. When the ability resolves the game instantly ends with me as the winner, at which point my opponent becomes confused about where his Emrakul went. 2. I have Painter and Grindstone in play, and I activate Grindstone on my opponent. He responds by casting Lightning Bolt on my Painter before the Grindstone activation resolves. Painter is put into my graveyard and when the Grindstone activation resolves the game instantly ends with me as the winner. So the problem here is that a) the game ends immediately instead of waiting for a player to attempt to draw from an empty library, and b) if the combo is broken up there is no way to play out the rest of the game. In the situation the other week, we had to determine the game a draw because it wasn't close to clear how the game would play out from there. It's just annoying going in to a game knowing that there's a high likely hood it may not even count, and I've become hesitant about even using the Grindstone.

I just did some poking at the XMage source, and I think I figured out why Grindstone is broken. Basically, whenever an effect tries to remove a card from an empty library (using Library.removeFromTop/Bottom, which Grindstone does), it incorrectly sets the "you drew from an empty library" flag (which makes them lose the game). It looks like an easy fix for someone who cares, but on my part. Not sure why it still happens if you kill Painter's Servant in response, but I'd suspect a screwup in the implementation of Painter's Servant.

My match vs Born on a Buy You. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6OrZRdMMpA The 4 land DD stack is at about 40 minutes if you want to skip ahead. I'd also like to hear if anyone has any comments on my pass the turn attempt g1, I knew it was risky, but I felt like I had to. Or that shaky keep in game 3.

That was my suspicion, but then I saw the stuff about ContinuousEffects and specifying a duration and decided I didn't care enough to really dig into it and see if it's all correct right now. It seems like verifying that would require at least a passing familiarity with how the framework they've written is supposed to work.
