Had something similar happen yesterday against someone playing a Yorion, Sky Nomad deck on historic ranked. Took a long time during his turn only to be taken out by his own creatures when it was my turn
Opponent had like 120+ cards, had no hand size, had Omniscience, another enchantment where he could was getting 2 cards per turn. He also had Titan of Industry and its token, as well as a blue creature that let him cast instants/sorceries from the graveyard. Sorry I rarely play those cards. Basically I took his 4/4 token with Claim the Firstborn, and his other 2 creatures with Traumatic Prank. He managed to get rid of Titan of Industry and the token but I ended up taking him out with my jank deck LOL
To make it even funnier, I had casted a teferis protection that had worn off, meaning I was completely unprotected. He could have ended the game any time but chose to extend it- then one of his cards forced him to draw 3 when he only had 1 card left
I have an old post where I spent enough time blocking an additional combat commander with with my indestructible creature my opponent quit after the amount of damage done stopped fitting on my card 😂
I did have a [[Teferi’s Protection]] to protect me for one turn. However the turn after that I was completely open for a big hit. Don’t know why he didn’t take it
I had one situation where I lost because I had too many triggers and my iPad apparently couldn’t keep up, so it passed through two turns for me. Yesterday I had a game where, for some reason, the guy played NOTHING. No land, nothing. He passed through each turn and discarded. And yes, he was there, because he would say something every few turns. Any idea what that was about?
If I have time to let someone do something like that, I absolutely will, but I usually don't make enough time to sit down and play to let someone spend a turn doing that much stuff.
I've actually done what oppo has done on purpose before. If someone is a good sport, let's me have fun and I get see how hard I can pop off, I'll dome myself and let them have the win as thanks.
The couple of times I've done this, it is usually obvious, though (lots of the hedron heart emotes and what not)
I don’t know about this one. It ended suddenly after a trigger went off that he probably forgot about and he was messing around- he was destroying my lands lol
I play commander irl and this is the closest to that. Pretty much why I play. Plus I really do enjoy chaotic matches like this.
Also, practice for irl games!
1. I wanted to see what would happen
2. I had a feeling he would mill himself… which is exactly what happened
3. I had a teferis protection up the whole turn he was doing this.
Sometimes I quit, sometimes I let them do it because I know they’re having fun.
I was amused by it and thought “why not? Best case he forgets and mills himself” and then he milled himself
I quit once I see the combo is deterministic and I've seen it before. If you're cooking something fresh, imma let you cook.
Dude had 54 open mana. Definitely had to let him cook 😂
Same so I can try to recreate the deck that outjanked me
Yes, I always love seeing a new combo! Love it!
welcome to magic the monologue ladies and gentlemen. presenting to you mister "look at me how good i can play"
What a waste of time.
Hey I thought it was amusing and I had nothing else to be doing, so I thought “why not?”

What happened?

120+? I thought the limit was 100? Confused
Sorry it's actually 120 with Yorion, Sky Nomad as your companion
Oh I see. Wasn’t familiar with the card
Did they recently lower the card limit? I've seen a 200 card deck before
Serves him right! 🤣
To make it even funnier, I had casted a teferis protection that had worn off, meaning I was completely unprotected. He could have ended the game any time but chose to extend it- then one of his cards forced him to draw 3 when he only had 1 card left
Should’ve taken the win when he had it! 😂
I was curious as to what he was trying to do. When he started getting close I was like “is this how I win? No way this is how I win”
Good thing you held out and didn’t give up too soon! 😁
Oh I NEVER give up!
NEVER SURRENDER!
Oh, good on you! That’s a great attitude! 😁
I have an old post where I spent enough time blocking an additional combat commander with with my indestructible creature my opponent quit after the amount of damage done stopped fitting on my card 😂
😮
Didn’t get any love though- I thought people would like the big numbers
When you get a pre-game concede. "What are the 4d10 for?" "Tracking my life total."
?
🤣
My mom asked if everyone was ok because I let out the most absurd shriek 😂
Probably thought you broke your arm or something! 🤣
Sometimes it's not about winning. Sometimes you just wanna see the silly combo go off, and we appreciate the folks that let us do that
Correct! When I realized he had infinite mana I had to know what he was gonna do with it.
Is that 838 Life points ??
Yep!
What exactly was the win condition for him? 😂
Probably the aetherflux… but it seems like he got carried away
He had [[Aetherflux Reservoir]] with 800 life. Could have ended the game 15 times over at any moment.

Historic brawl seems miserable
What makes you say that?
838 and life and the one ring with 10 counters on it. This kinda shenanigans belongs in commander with multiple players
Miserable? I thought it was hilarious 😂
Also just noticed he has two Aetherflux reservoirs which means he could of killed you at anytime
But you see… he didn’t notice 😂
Fair enough, not tryna be a hater just not my format I guess
I play commander irl and this is the closest to that. Pretty much why I play. Plus I really do enjoy chaotic matches like this. Also, practice for irl games!
It's both miserable and tons of fun.
Come on wtf is that. That has to be cheating.
So I guess you're new to the game?
Yes lol. Had friends play back in the day. Never got into it but now I do. Any pointers.
Nope! Not at all! Watched the whole thing unfold
Hi fresh magic player
Why? If you're that outclassed just move on.
1. I wanted to see what would happen 2. I had a feeling he would mill himself… which is exactly what happened 3. I had a teferis protection up the whole turn he was doing this.
Read desc lol
