Platinum Angel question
General forum

I've read the rules on Platinum Angel but am still confused about one scenario. If I'm at zero life, and decked out, but my opponent has no creature/artifact removal, and I keep passing my turn till the match runs out of time for us both, is it effectively a draw?

Derp, I need to read better.
If you go to time it's a draw but chances are if you make it go fast and don't slow play they will draw themselves out before time.

This is unrelated from the question rule, but Platinum Angel plus Alpha Authority makes for a great casual deck for kitchen table play ;) very troll-ish

Once made a deck centered around [Platinum Angel] + [Swiftfoot Boots] + [Darksteel Plate] ... Fun time

Epochalyptik Sorry about asking in the wrong forum, I'm pretty new to the site, and I read through the forum descriptions, but I must have misread. I won't make the same mistake again.Ohthenoises Thanks for the info that's what I needed to know. If I was basically frozen, it's a waiting game till they deck out. Thanks. This question actually came to me when I was looking at your I Fight For the Users! deck!

Platinum Angel says "You can't lose the game and your opponents can't win the game" this means exactly what you think it does.
It's a win since you cannot lose and they cannot win as long as you don't go to time it will win you the game. If you are at 0 life however and someone Terminate s your angel you will lose the game upon resolution of the spell.
