Ya, the word probably shouldn't be there (see what I did there? :D) If the judge believes you in that you really didn't know you were doing something wrong, you won't get USC-Cheating. Cheating infractions are all about intent.
Saw what you did yes =).
But does it bother you too that he included that word in there ?
The answer to this is always going to be what the judge says. However, if you genuinely thought your triggers were your opponent's responsibility (and the judge believed this was the case), you'd probably not get a DQ.
LSV's brain might slip when commentating like it happened that time he wasnt DQ'ed for something when playing and Toby Elliott wrote an article about his brain and how it can slip.
Yes, this is legal. Two players can intentionally draw a match- in this case the result is 0-0-3.
This would only count as bribery if one of the players offered an incentive for the draw. In this case, neither player is doing so.
This means that it is allowed to rig standings as long as it is the tournament organizer and/or WotC that offers the incentive, which pretty much means all of organized play, right ?
If you invent your own cards entirely from scratch and make up your own rules and use your own art, then it has nothing to do with WOTC and isn't a proxy and go for it. But if you're representing a MTG card, it's almost impossible to do legally.
If you enjoy the game, then pay the people who worked hard to give it to you. It's simple.
What you write falls flat because of the fact that cheating is allowed in mtg.
ok, seems like saying "all creatures" would have been better when designing the card. Saying "each creature" makes it seem anger is targeting all the creatures separately.
Agree.
Then again, MtG is like this; WotC wants the text on cards to be up for discussion, which is also true for the rules documents, tournament policies, and etc, pretty much everything they write.
This means that in order to learn the rules you have to get familiar with the interpretations of the Judge-apparatus in addition to reading the cards and documents themselves.
This has nothing to do with the rules or answering the original question. Spam infraction issued. -Carsten
I don't believe any of this for a single second. There is nothing wrong with the shuffler, humans just have a difficulty with grasping randomness, and we are also prone to selective memory. And we cope with failure (losing) by blaming forces beyond our control. In this case, it is almost certain that all were in play, and that if your friend lost 90% of his games, he almost assuredly drafted, built and/or played poorly. Magic Online cannot be blamed for this.
Don't let thoughts about the MtgO shuffler being random cloud your mind, because it isn't, and probably never have been.
I agree with Ixias on that one personally. The simplification of that aspect of combat actually made the decision making process more difficult in most cases.
More possibilities = more complexity, its as easy as that.
I disagree, with combat damage off the stack there is far more strategy to cards like the Fanatic. Before, you put damage on the stack and sacrificed it. It was by far the best thing to do so there wasn't really much choice. Nowadays, you need to choose between combat damage OR sacrifice. There's much more choosing, and cards like Morphling/Aetherling are also harder to use and more strategically interesting.
It IS harder to outplay someone, but that just means it's deeper and no longer as "no-brainy" as it used to be. Combat damage on the stack, then pump/sac was ALWAYS the correct choice. Now you need to think.
But does it bother you too that he included that word in there ?
Why the word "probably" ?
What is a 100% legit player for limited ?
Really? Infraction issued.

Other than that he probably is quality material.

What does "TBF" mean ?

So you are wrong about agreeing with Ixias.
Wrong, reality is the opposite of what you say.
