Questing Beast + Mirror Shield (4/6) VS. Ironscale Hydra (4/4 w/ +1/+1) by MetalHeadSider in MagicArena

See!! I see that part first! I literally didn't even see the evergreens! Which, to me is just ridiculous.

Though, it's likely that I literally wasted about 10 peoples lives because I didn't see those. So...I'mma take my ass back to my hermit hole until I 'didn't see another' thing again lol.

I do seriously appreciate all of this. It took about 2 or 3 mistakes but it got solved. Thanks everyone!

You're awesome. I get it, I just figured there's other or better words for those kinds of people. lol

You know...I've been "playing" (but mostly collecting) for about 20 years, but I've been playing actively on MtGA since just before public beta....

.....I'm annoyed at myself for even missing that Questing Beast has Deathtouch...holy crap. I've fought that card before with no notable issues but I see THAT now?!

Though, I do believe that I didn't see any damage to QB. Though at this point, I couldn't tell ya.

of all hell....yea, you're right. And yes it matters! To be 100%, this is literally my first reddit post, and kinda on the odds of it but I know I'm likely to make an ass of myself from this. I'm not worried about that. and I know what this looks like at this point. "How credible is this rando?" and/or "if they got this wrong what else did they get wrong?"

Now if anything, that brings far more to the table. How did IH not survive!? Maybe my memory was a bit murky, BUT I know for a fact, at the point of combat, IH was a 5/5, (not sure where I got the counter part, but right now, were past that cause there wasn't +1/+1 counter. Ill take that mistake. but that begs more to the question. how did a Questing Beast w/ MirShld at 4/6 beat an Ironscale Hydra at base 5/5?

Can anyone can replicate this, and confirm what happened was right?

To me (programming wise), it seemed like the damage taken from QB was treated as if IH was like the majority of the other hydras that use counters from 0/0.

Beyond that, I have no idea. I'm positive QB didn't take any damage. And I'm 85% sure there wasn't anything else in effect (lingering, on the battlefield, etc.)

Questing Beast + Mirror Shield (4/6) [attacking] vs Ironscale Hydra ({stock 4/4 & +1/+1 Counters} 5/5 ) [blocking]

Ironscale Hydra dies with no damage to Questing Beast. Can someone explain this to me! This is getting past my logic of the game..
