If your average MTG game does not include a twenty minute intermission where your (step)father and sister pull out google and debate a really weird technicality, then you're probably playing it wrong

#ok SO #i still don't fully understand the conclusion we came to but here's how i think it went #we played 2v2. me and sister against dad and aunt #each team takes their turn simultaneously. see MTG two headed giant format #Sister plays Kutzil‚ Malamet Exemplar #3/3 legendary cat creature #it has the following written on the card: 'Your opponents can't cast spells during your turn'.#However #stepdad had an instant he wanted to counter her casting it with #we said 'but you countering it is casting a spell AFTER it has entered the battlefield. you can't cast spells on her turn'#and he was like 'actually no because there's stack priority order within turns and it prioritizes instants'#'and technically that ability has not activated yet as this is not resolved'#hence a twenty minute argument. I made some coffee and got a muffin lmao.#i still lowkey think he might have been wrong but i was not about to get involved /lh #this was a five hour game #as they tend to be #just standard 40 card decks we built from prerelease packs #i usually go vampire deck. plains/swamp w/ elenda as my commander #thank GOD this wasn't commander lmao we'd still be playing it #but this was standard and i went for red/green loosely dinosaur deck #we got the lost caverns of ixalan set #opened packs. had an hour to build a deck. played it #idk i fucking love mtg #i know it's such a nerd thing but idc i'm on pokemon tumblr in 2023. what do you want from me.
