Hello my dear fellow geeks! :D
It's time for a game!
Yes. We are going to play a game.
This game is called "Spellstorm". You are supposed to in some way "counter" the opponents spells. Let me give you an example.
I attack you with a 20/20 Industrictible Marit Lage token.
You got to respond to this thing. You need to stop it in some way. Lets say that you play Path to Exile on it. You could also play something like "Gain 20 life" or "Prevent Damage"!
Then it's my turn to play something, that counters you Path to Exile . I could play Mizzium Skin . This will now counter your effect, and let Marit Lage deal 20 dmg to you. Now you either got to find another way to deal with Marit Lage, or in some sort of way stop my Mizzium Skin .
So, the rules:
Try to be more creative than just Counterspell.
You need to LINK THE CARD! Like Lightning Bolt and not just Lightning Bolt. Cards without links will just get "Exiled"! :D
Try to only play 1 card at the time. Cards like Quicken is ok, when played with a sorcery!
Don't use Morph or Split Second cards, as you can't respond to them.
People might write post at the same time as other people. Remember to refresh the page before making a spell! If 2 people are responding to the same spell, it is the first person, whose spell are going to resolve. The other spell is "exiled"!
You got questions? Did I forgot something? Ask and I will answer!
Well, that was it!
I'll start!
I attack you with 10 Pestermite !
Just so you guys know it. Everyone (other than MagicalHacker) can play a card! Not just me! :D
And to clearify my thread, those pestermites are tokens! :D
