They are really dumb. There are literally hundreds of people typing "show LSV v Finkel!" and the twitch mods threatened to time out anyone who continued to actually offer feedback to what they want to watch.

And then they go to game two and Finkel gets mana screwed so

They asked for donations and raised a lot of money and delivered nothing. Don't use pucatrade.

Trick is also moderating twitch chat if you want to troll him.

its a reasonable way to turn draft chaff into usable cards. I don't expect to get snaps, fetches etc. but there are plenty of good cards to pick up that trade frequently.

Marching Powder is objectively the worst poster known. He also needs to learn how a keyboard works.

Eurgh, Finkel suffers a karmic backlash after the game he had with Paulo Vitor Damo da Rosa a few PTs back where exactly the same thing happened to his opponent.

Manaflood/screw is literally the worst thing.

Thats the worst part of them choosing not to show LSV Finkel game 1, for more fuckin Bant Company.

Also LSV 6-0, Kibler 3-3, there is justice in this world after all

Finkel was on last round, LSV had coverage round four. Not too shocking they put up some players that haven't been on stream yet.

Cool, thanks. Are there payoff cards that make use of the extra mana from Cryptolith Rites? Or is it just to dump your weenies faster?

Makes it so you can dump you hand and still cast cc end of turn.

Nobody gives a poo poo about seeing Esper vs Bant over two legendary pros?? I don't want to watch Doug Davis of Canada piloting Bant Butt Holes against Zlatan Karlsson piloting Esper Dragons, just because we already saw Finkel on camera once.

I am sure it sucks for the randos but you shouldn't pass up an opportunity to show two legendary players squaring off OR brand new decks in favor of old meta ones, let alone both together at the same time

This match is so hosed. Avancyn shouldn't have flipped because the creatures exiled. They also didn't deal the 3 from the flip.

Now shota has to take 3 extra damage is now two and avancyn stays flip.

They caught the mistake like 2 turns later so by then it was way too late to reverse the gamestate.

A couple of turns before the flip, he called a judge over and while I don't remember the exact words, I could tell the conversation was about Avacyn flipping.
