I am Batman. Batman doesn't share.

Because I'm Batman!

Actually, I do have a memorable recent game to share.

Was just grinding with my nahiri deck, up against Bolas, not much happening, then on turn 3 the opoonent pops his first card: omniscience....he then gets a startled awake, into a whir of invention, grabbing another omni, then a card draw, then  deploy, then an omni, you see where this is going....

About 10 minutes later, he has a full hand, and an emrakul of stupid proportions which has shut all of my cards completely out of being able to be cast, in short: I'm screwed.

I go to my draw step, draw Hazorets undying fury...then i match 3 gems, which causes another match to drop down, then another, then another...a lucky cascade later, it is fully charged, which means one thing: 

He instantly died to 4 deploys featuring boomship, samut and brisela

One of the guys I brought to this game contacted me recently to tell me how much of a jerk I am, and how I should consider practicing what I preach being against Omniloop, but wouldn't give me anymore detail then, "You know what you did."

Confused by this, I dug through my old decks I put in the freezer.  I don't know what he's complaining about, I thought to myself, I don't own Omniscience, and the only deck I use in Kiora is my cycling deck, and that should be an easy win for him if he'd faced that.  Heck, I can't even gather the willpower to use that deck anymore (referencing my cursed-sword analogy from previous threads).  Whenever I've used her for a match for events I'd just quit at the start of the match, because the victory wasn't worth the time (and I'm lazy).

But I went back and opened the deck contents anyways, just to see what he could possibly be ranting about...

Turns out I'd forgotten that I dismantled my cycling deck (but never changed the deck name) and instead replaced with a deck that I never actually bothered to test out.

So I tested it out, and by turn 2 or 3, it consistently loops infinitely until the opponent is killed by Sunscorched Desert (3 damage as it enters play), which takes about 45minutes-1hr to complete the loop, chipping away the opponent's health...very...very slowly...

With such little damage, you might be given the illusion that it will eventually stop, that you have another turn to recover.  But no, it's just the slowest, most trivial method of killing a player capable with Kiora, with an illusion of possibly bouncing back so you'll stick around and not just quit.

All this time I thought I was just being too lazy to follow through with playing a node with cycling, but I was actually releasing that monster upon the player-base.

Moral of the story is:  I am a jerk.  I've changed the deck now, and I'm sorry for anyone who ever had to face that abomination.
