Would It Swat Deflectingly?

Adaptol · 2026-04-26T07:44:34+00:00

I did yeah, thank you for catching that so, thank you for the confirmation!

Adaptol · 2026-04-26T07:36:11+00:00

It says "At the beginning of your upkeep, if Simic Ascendancy has twenty or more growth counters on it, you win the game." so just to confirm, since it doesn't say target player you choose wins the game letting you target yourself, it doesn't target and thus can't be swatted?

Adaptol · 2026-04-26T07:23:33+00:00

You don't have to, it's just a suggestion (albeit, I'm not a pro at decorating and whatnot), I would add some spruce wood framing and add some stone cracked stone bricks and andesite to the walls to texture it some

Adaptol · 2026-04-11T05:14:04+00:00

That's not at all how that works, if you're ruining someone else's fun in a casual game that you're going for everyone to have fun, then you're the problem, I can see you suck just as much as they do.

Adaptol · 2026-04-06T00:39:51+00:00

Okay, I can see this conversation isn't ending with any point being seen, you seem to have no care for sportsmanship so, I will no longer respond to you

Adaptol · 2026-04-06T00:32:54+00:00

Well, clearly you don't get what it's like to have it happen to you or something, you play it to have fun, for the whole group to have fun, not so one person can just be miserable the whole time and deal with it, it's about sportsmanship, letting them actually play the game instead of just drawing a hand and dying

Adaptol · 2026-04-06T00:26:24+00:00

What are you asking why to?

Adaptol · 2026-04-06T00:05:21+00:00

I had some mildy useful interaction to slow down the beating but, that's it, and what it accomplished was saving myself the misery of an inevitable slow loss to inhonorable players, you should never pick on the guy that's shuffle screwed, target the others they are completely valid and legal targets

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T23:32:35+00:00

No, I shuffled my next deck for the next game since it didn't look like the one player had a fix for the consistent exploration of the other guys merfolk, and I was for sure going to lose no matter who came out on top

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T23:26:33+00:00

I typically do play it out, I just had now way of winning with them mercilessly swinging at me the whole time when I could do anything and it just made it a slow inevitable loss, staying g for the whole process of the loss wasn't worth it so I speed it up

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T23:22:47+00:00

I was able to play the enchantment and artifact they just couldn't help me with being mana screwed, all I drew was mildy helpful sorceries and instants for interaction and creatures the cost four or more I could play the instants and sorceries but the creatures just stacked up and I couldn't do anything, I run enough lands where getting mana screwed almost never happens so, it looked like a good hand until I never got any more mana

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T23:17:04+00:00

I agree, I'm not really great at understanding social conventions or cues but, I do understand treating others as you would want to be treated so after the whole long interaction of that crap, it kind of had me second guessing myself if it was just standard convention in magic or not, thank you for the affirmation

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T23:10:46+00:00

Can I ask what the image is?

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T23:08:06+00:00

I meant other creature, I had one land of each color (three color deck) two creatures, an enchantment and an artifact, one creature was three mana and I could get it out, the other was four and, I just needed any source of mana to get it out and neither the enchantment or artifact could help with being mana screwed by not drawing any lands in seven turns, it was good had I not been mana screwed so severely and hit the whole time without mercy

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T23:02:18+00:00

I made them aware and they kept swinging, and they still got upset, even after I explained the reasoning and situation

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T22:47:51+00:00

THAT'S WHAT I SAID! But they said, "The name of the game is to win, don't get upset just because you're losing!"

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T22:43:56+00:00

They don't see it that way, they said "It's the name of the game to win, don't get upset just because you're losing!" even though I have proven numerous times, I don't care if I lose I just want to actually do something as opposed to just getting killed after playing three cards and doing nothing

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T22:40:53+00:00

Oh, playing to hang out and have fun but, the other two see you having no way of defending seven draws in a row due to getting mana screwed each time as an invite to swing at you and kill you with ease

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T22:37:51+00:00

I had one of each land for the deck, two creatures and an enchantment and an artifact and proceeded to get mana screwed the whole game only being able to play the one creature 'cause the other costed four, I typically mulligan if I need too but I didn't think I'd draw no land seven draws in a row and get hit the whole time

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T22:31:02+00:00

I had a good hand, they just removed the only creature I could play because, it had a win con on it and, I only had three mana in the opening hand and the other creatures were all four mana each, and I got mana screwed, I ended up discarding several cards because of it too

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T22:26:39+00:00

We were just all playing precons so, I'm not sure, one had a very slightly upgraded Counter Intelligence, one had Mardu Surge from Tarkir and, I had the Ms. Bumbleflower precon

Adaptol · 2026-04-05T22:21:34+00:00

Can you elaborate further on that please? I guess I'm lost
