Thread: 4 Card Blind

    Re: 4 Card Blind

    5. Whoshim: Chancellor of the Forge, Dodecapod, Faerie Macabre, Gut Shot


    1. Asthereal (TO): Saprazzan Cove, Misthollow Griffin, Force of Will, Mental Misstep 0-6

    2. Wrath of Pie: Leyline of Singularity, Karakas, Cenn's Tactician, Tethered Griffin 0-6 The Griffin is enough to win.

    3. FTW: Force of Will, Leyline of Singularity, Karakas, Chronomaton 0-6 You hold Leyline and Force my Gut Shot. You win with Chronomaton.

    4. alvoi: Memnite, Snow-Covered Swamp, Dark Ritual, Trinisphere EDIT: I win, since I can Gut Shot the Memnite before Trinisphere comes down. 6-0

    6. Tylert: City of traitors, Phyrexian revoker, Sphere of resistance, chronomaton 0-6 Sphere is enough to get me.

    7. H: Force of Will, Sea's Claim, Judge's Familiar, Island 2-2 Our 1/1s make draws.

    8. apple713: City of Traitors, Isochron Scepter, Assassin's Trophy, Steel Overseer 2-2

    Points: 10

    Well, I guessed there would be decks that featured discarding and the graveyard a bit more this week. My guess was very wrong. :D I didn't even manage one win. EDIT: I was able to WW against alvoi.

    Force my overseer to take the draw. If you don't you'll lose the race.
    I thought you could cast Scepter first and force me to Force it.
    But perhaps I can let it resolve and just not play anything and sit on FoW.
    I guess you're right.

    But you still win one against alvoi, right?

    Oh, yeah, I literally wrote that down and then forget by the end of the sentence. Man, I need to get my coffee here...

    Re: 4 Card Blind

    FTW: Force of Will, Leyline of Singularity, Karakas, Chronomaton

    1. Asthereal (TO): If I Force your Mental Misstep, I get Forced back and lose to Griffin, so we just stop each other's threats and draw. DD 2-2.
    2. Wrath of Pie: We both reveal Leyline and draw. DD 2-2.
    3. FTW: Me
    4. alvoi: OTP I reveal Leyline and cast Chronomaton. OTD I don't reveal Leyline. If you cast 3sphere I Force it. Chrono beats Memnite. WW 6-0.
    5. Whoshim: I don't reveal Leyline and cast Chronomaton. If you Gut Shot, I Force it. Chrono beats the token. WW 6-0.
    6. Tylert: I reveal Leyline. Revoker can't name Karakas, so I lock you off creatures. OTP 1/1 Chrono gets there. OTD we draw. WD 4-1.
    7. H: I metagamed around Sea's Claim XD. OTP I don't reveal Leyline and cast Chrono. If you Force I Force back. Chrono beats either Sea's Claim or Familiar. OTD you get to lead with Familiar so the best I can do is draw. WD 4-1.
    8. apple713: I could also Force Scepter while Overseer and Chrono stare at each other. Neither can grow large enough to survive an attack into the other. DD 2-2.

    Total = 26 points -- 6 wins, 8 draws, 0 losses

    Edit: More wins than I thought.

    I don't think, like above, Leyline is good in play here, so on the play, he would keep it in hand, I play Familiar. If he Forces, I can then Force his Chrono, if he doesn't, I can counter Chrono with Familar. I think this is two draws. 2-2 (6)

    Perfect draws across the board? Nope, i rudely won one game it seems,
    Sorry to break your perfect record, but I win when I go first. See my post.

    OTP I play Chronomaton. You Force it. I Force back. It resolves. Chronomaton beats whichever card you have left (either Sea's Claim or Judge's Familiar).

    OTD you play Judge's Familiar first to get an extra counter. I play Chronomaton. You Force. I Force back. You sacrifice Familiar. We both have nothing left and draw.

    Ah, yeah, well, the ship actually sailed on that because I accidentally won a game vs. someone else,

    If preliminary scores are correct, it looks like you won enough to take the round.

    Also, if preliminary scores are correct, it looks like Wrath of Pie snatches the season title one round early.

    FTW T1: Start with Leyline, cast Chrono.
    Tylert T1: Cast whatever.
    FTW T2: Bounce whatever, attack.
    He can only cast one threat at the time, and you can bounce one threat at the time.

    Right, I forgot just playing the 1/1 and bouncing everything is enough to win. Worked in previous rounds too.

    I'm surprised but I guess most people ended up with a lot of draws.

    No counter on Cove yet means I don't have Sphere mana.

    So I think I have to Force Sphere and we get the same standoff. If my calcs are correct.
    Yeah, i somehow thought that coves could generate mana without spending counters. so 2-2.

    I am pretty tired here, so I may not be thinking clearly, but can't Revoker name Karakas to prevent the bouncing? Both players would then be able to get Chronos down, and Tylert has the Revoker. I don't know if it is enough to make Tylert win though.

    Also, Tylert wins on the play, right? I think he missed that he can play his Chrono through his Sphere, but FTW cannot. If FTW Forces the Sphere, Tylert wins with 2 threats (I believe). If FTW lets it resolve, Tylert plays his Chrono and FTW plays nothing.

    So I think Tylert gets a win on the play, and maybe on the draw.

    Yeah, you might be a tad tired. Revoker says "name a nonland card".

    And letting Sphere resolve and just bouncing the dude every turn is somewhat strong.
    Note: Tylert cannot cast his Revoker through his own Sphere, so he has to choose between the two.
    No Sphere means FTW gets to cast his guy. But casting Sphere means Tylert has a threat less.

    i knew this non-bo would come back to me at some point :) that's why i played Pithing needle the previous round....

    2. Wrath of Pie: Leyline of Singularity, Karakas, Cenn's Tactician, Tethered Griffin

    1. Asthereal (TO): Saprazzan Cove, Misthollow Griffin, Force of Will, Mental Misstep DD
    3. FTW: Force of Will, Leyline of Singularity, Karakas, Chronomaton DD
    4. alvoi: Memnite, Snow-Covered Swamp, Dark Ritual, Trinisphere WD
    5. Whoshim: Chancellor of the Forge, Dodecapod, Faerie Macabre, Gut Shot WW
    6. Tylert: City of traitors, Phyrexian revoker, Sphere of resistance, chronomaton WD
    7. H: Force of Will, Sea's Claim, Judge's Familiar, Island DD - You force a draw both ways by Forcing my threat pitching Familiar, then casting Sea's Claim on my Karakas.
    8. apple713: City of Traitors, Isochron Scepter, Assassin's Trophy, Steel Overseer LL

    4w8d = 20

    Ivory Giant was probably a better choice over Tethered Griffin.

    Phyrexian Revoker can't name Karakas, only nonland cards. So I don't bother Forcing anything. I just play Leyline and Karakas him every turn.

    OTP I get down Chronomaton first so I can attack for 1 each turn. OTD he leads with Sphere to stop me from playing Chronomaton, so I can't make a threat and force the draw bouncing his board.

    My mistake. Reading the cards properly does help a bit.

    Re: 4 Card Blind

    This was a very effective round indeed. But it's time to move on.
    Even though it looks like the winner of this season is already decided, let's see who join the Wrath in top 3.

    THE FINAL & 8TH ROUND of Season 1 (Legacy) FOUR CARD BLIND has started!

    I have PM'ed myself my deck for the round.
    So... you can all start PM'ing me your submission for this 8th and final round.

    DEADLINE: Wednesday the 10th of April, at 6:00AM Central European Time.
    (That's my time. Just send me the deck Tuesday evening latest, you'll be fine).

    PLEASE NOTE:
    - The way you send your deck to me matters. Please send it in the way described below, so it doesn't cost me an hour of editing before I can post all the decks.
    Please send your deck as follows: Goblin Guide, Mogg Fanatic, Pithing Needle, Cavern of Souls (so with card tags around each card, and not above eachother), with your Username and 4CB S01R08 in the topic. Many of you already did this for previous rounds. Thanks a lot, this really saves me the time and hassle of copying and pasting text and tags!
    - The banned list (you'll find it in the second post). Don't send in illegal decks. I might catch it and notify you, but if I overlook it, you miss out on the round.
    There were many changes for round 7 that are still in effect: Daze, Dark Ritual, Reanimate and Trinisphere are unbanned, and Shelldock Isle got banned.
    The banned list is still open for discussion, though we'll start a different format next week, so discussing it would only favour future seasons of Legacy. Cards of the current Legacy watchlist are: Lion's Eye Diamond, Eureka, Force of Will, Misthollow Griffin, Leyline of Singularity, Blazing Shoal and Elixir of Immortality.

    After the deadline has passed, I will post all decks on the forum here, and you can start puzzling out your scores.

    If you have any questions, please read the first two posts of this thread first. If you can't find the answer there, drop a message here. We'll answer a.s.a.p.

    Happy deck designing everybody!

    Re: 4 Card Blind

    For next round are we doing a NoBan list format (Maybe no Uncard / ante / dexterity / conspiracy at least) where all cards from the top deck are banned each round?? :)
