Magic: The Gathering - Tutorial Week 5

brief recap of the types of cards we have seen so far and some rule baggage that comes with them.

 

Magic: The Gathering - Tutorial Week 4

solid understanding of timing is essential to good strategy in Magic. We’ll move on directly from last week’s scenario.

I’m going to fast forward these next two turns so You can get to the timing difference between instants and sorceries. I will need both players with all resources unused.

Red plays a creature, Akoum Boulderfoot. Simple ability: when you put this creature down onto the battlefield, you target (aim) at a creature or player. The Boulderfoot will do 1 damage to whatever you targeted, just like that.

Red targets his opponent, so the creature does 1 damage to White. He doesn’t attack and passes the turn. White takes his turn, attacks with the flying Griffin (can’t be blocked since Red has no flying creatures) and doesn’t do anything else.

Back to Red.

Okay, timing. This is rather important and might get a bit complicated, but I will need to show what can and can’t be done with instants and sorceries. This section will showcase cards previously unseen in this tutorial series. I’ve picked a handful of simple cards and erased the story text to make reading easier. And of course, I’ll explain in general what they do.

The Tavern's Cooling Off

Ladies and Gentlemen,
The Tavern is sad to announce that they will be having a short cool off period for about 3 days starting today until Wednesday.

Magic: The Gathering - Tutorial Week 3

et’s see… we left off talking about one-shot cards like sorceries. Guess I’ll need to elaborate on that a bit.

But beforehand, a look at the battlefield as it is now.

As per usual, click on the image to see a larger version.

Post-Imperial Challenge

Thank Shiba for allowing us to proceed with the Tournament and allowing it to run to its completion.

The Tournament had an attendance of 10 of the most honorable samurai that their respective clans could spare. Almost each clan was represented with the exception of Crab due to their current state of difficulty in their lands. The Mantis, trying to outdo themselves as usual had 2 representatives from both the Yoritomo and Kitsune Families.

What follows the break is the slightly more detailed report of the event.
