I wish everyone was so quick to call a judge, even at the few drafts I've been to I've seen some stupid shit go down that didn't necessarily involve cheating but involved ignorance on one persons part and not wanting to make trouble on the others.
I'm not making excuses for the kid, but when my friends and I first started playing we mana shuffled and had no idea it was illegal even though it seems obvious now. At my first draft my first opponent watched me mana shuffle and instead of waiting for me to finish to call a judge over and get me DQ'd he let me know that was not allowed. Maybe he didn't know?
@kaltoros Oh he knew, I and everyone else could tell when he started crying after being caught and the judges made him pull an opening hand. In fact I'm not even sure he was mana waiving more then he was "shuffling" in such a way as to insure exactly what his opener could be, which is possible and would explain why he was looking at the deck face up. Either way he got what was coming to him.
Yea good catch on the dude trying to run the cheats on you bro, i was at that same ptq, a little bigger than i wished, but it happens. regardless im glad you called a judge, i feel like i see alot of shady things goin down and im never sure when to call a judge or when not to. good luck in you future magic events! i enjoy the vids keep em comin!
So let me get this straight, this kid basically took cards from his sideboard and then while proceeding to shuffle his deck, takes the cards that were sided out from the side board and slips them into the main deck and proceeds to go on as if nothing happened?
@AlexStrife89 No he sided out, but was looking at his deck while doing it, took the cards he wanted to side in and sided them in while still looking at the deck face up. When he "shuffled" it was basically a lay shuffle as a way to stack. Never piled, never riffled.
@Lavron4151 Good for you, I'm sure it will catch up to you sooner rather then later, troll.
