Are YOU the bant player? If you are, good playing! :) Too bad you lost, but Faerie's ALWAYS wins. It's annoying. :(

[MagicForTheWin]

no, I'm the Faerie player, lol. I had to sell the deck though because most of the Fae deck is rotating in October. I'm still a fan of control and I play 5CC now.

[TheGtrlvr]

5CC is awesome. Hopefully you have reflecting pool? :) It works well with vivid lands.

[MagicForTheWin]

Yes, I have 4 Reflecting Pools ( 2 of them are Brandon's actually lol)

[ichasi]

hey! heweeey1@@@1 treetop village had exalted. you lose faerie guy

[MagicForTheWin]

I played agony warp in response to the exalted bonus. So while the exalted ability was on the stack still, my agony warp went on the stack, then came off the stack first killing the Treetop Village before the exalted bonus came off the stack.

[roykillany]

shouldn't have pathed if he knew that his opponent was short on mana. he lost when fae got to 4 land.

[TsavMemorai]

attacking with treetop alone was a poor choice facing 3 mana and no concession.

should've attacked with all 3.

@Pikajew21 yep, you can play a spell in response to a spell on the stack resolving.

[Pikajew21]

I may be a noob by saying this, but at the end when Brandon tried to play a rhox war monk, and Christopher used an agony warp to kill gaddock shouldn't he not be able to counter the monk, as the stack resolves? Unless your can interrupt a resolving stack, in which case I was playing magic wrong my whole life.

@UberGusMage You are retarded.. maybe you should go read the rules on double strike because you clearly don't understand what it does.

[Plagueis1017]

LOL!!! why would you path to exile giving your opp a free land when he is short on lands?

[styrone11]

The Bant Player Is Just Plain Bad I Mean Y Attack With 2 Creatures For 5 When One Has 5 Power And Double Strike And The Guy Is Taaped Out And Again Exalted Triggers It Doesn't Stack The Fae Player Lost The Game Even With The Mistake Soory If U Think U Can Warp In Response Ur Wrong

[TrollAndStuff]

Any particular reason why you played Agony Warp over Nameless Inversion. Just curious.

[UberGusMage]

Also, at 1:36 he should have won... 5 damage goes through with double strike meaning faeries loses on upkeep...

[UberGusMage]

I've watched these and wow, the Bant player had so many bad plays... in game one they could have won if they just attacked with doran (double strike on a 6 dmg attacker) on the second turn of Rafiq being out. Second game they attacked right away with a treetop village even though it would come into play tapped, and even if it didn't it would have summoning sickness. And in this game they should have just attacked with Rafiq at about 0:56, 5/5 double strike instead of a 2/2 plus a 3/3...
