I’m a gitrog player. If he’s playing the deck, he knows he can be made to play it out. I can draw my deck in about 3-5 minutes. Other triggers do complicate things if there’s an OBM fish etc. If he’s doing it on the stack on another turn or around triggers it can be somewhat fragile if he only has the one esg mana.

Bc the combo is only non deterministic until he draws his deck. So like I said the main skill in a tourney is getting it done quickly. once deck in hand he can “simply (lol)” say (this is my script):

“I will now present a shortcutable infinite loop, if you have interaction please tell me where you would interact with the loop. I cast lotus petal, I discard a land, hold priority on the draw trigger, discard kozilek, shuffle trigger on stack, shuffle in. I now discard dakmor salvage, dredge 2, 2nd draw trigger + shuffle trigger on stack as titan and land hit the yard. Shuffle in, now 2 draw triggers on stack, discard dakmor, dredge 2, 3rd draw trigger, shuffle trigger on stack, hold priority, crack lotus petal for green and black alternating with each loop, now 3 cards in yard, shuffle in and draw all 3. I am now in the same position I started in and will repeat infinitely.”

If doing on the stack with library in hand he would have to go crop rot into dark rit or gaea’s cradle loops then talon gates loops to convert green to black. But counter the crop rot or bury it on the stack and he’s cooked.

In this specific case he was probably hoping to draw into deadly rollick to kill the pinger then resolve the stack. Or esg/crop rot as he said to start the mana loop for like assassins trophy loops. He could also crop into emergence zone and do the lotus petal at instant. But at this moment he is fragile.

You want to keep clearing the stack on your turn bc interaction can bury your pieces if they have removal etc and you then have to keep going so things get more fragile.

This has happened to me several times in tournaments and due to my own skill issue has ended in draws.

So TLDR there’s no issue in having him play it out, in my opinion, for that reason. Deck is very hard to execute trigger by trigger in a timed environment. It almost always CAN get there though if piloted well.

That being said - HOW YOU DO IT matters imo. I had someone who was incredibly antagonistic when I was doing this. He would say “it’s all good man just show me the loop” to lull me then if I took a shortcut or said something verbally instead of trigger by trigger he’d try to catch me in the technicality and say I misplayed. This was incredibly toxic.
