My Favorite Modern Play of the Evening
I’m testing my Teachings deck against the random practice room stuff (mono-green Plow Under, really?) and hit my second Storm deck of the night. Here’s the play sequence:
- I lead off with Thoughtseize and see Gitaxian Probe, 2 lands, Pyretic Ritual, Manamorphose, Seething Song and Pyromancer’s Swath.
- I choose Probe and he discards.
- He plays a land and passes.
- I play a land and pass.
- He plays a land and passes.
- I play a land and pass.
- End step, he plays Telling Time.
- On his turn, he plays Pyretic Ritual, signaling the go-off.
- I respond with Esper Charm and he tanks and then discards two.
- He passes the turn with the Pyretic Ritual mana leaving his pool.
- I play a land and pass. He concedes.
