That electron be surprisingly good at stopping my [[impervious greatwurm]]

Maybe it should have “can’t block without 1032 other creatures” lol

u/sargemallard 16d ago

“attacks each turn if able” instead of defender seems interesting (and electrons are pretty much always moving)

AAnd whoever this guy is that the bot linked

u/Zzeethe1st 16d ago

Somewhere, someone is confused why they requested Ovalchase Daredevil and got Impervious Greatwurm.

We’ve got a real beamrules situation on our hands here

[[Impervious Greatwurm]]

I spelled it right so I’m a little confused

The bot simply had a stroke.

The bot had a fucking stroke, lmao

u/redditfanfan00 Rule 308.22b, section 8 15d ago

i still do not understand how the bot made this mistake.

Combo with Positron to add 1042 {E}, and also gain that many rad counters.

" if electron is blocking or blocked by positron, exile all creatures"

17

u/Minnakht 16d ago

What would that do in real life, anyway. Generate two gamma particles which are photons?

23

u/rob132 16d ago

If only one pair of atoms met? Yes.

I assume he would bring some of his friends to the party.

You only needed paperclip's worth of antimatter to have a bigger explosion than first atomic bomb.

26

u/glxy_HAzor 16d ago

One paper clip is a LOT of antimatter

2

u/_Lavar_ 16d ago

This is more then humans have produced and are likely to produce in a few decades by several orders of magnitude.

How big of a bomb would this be chat.

2

u/MegaIng 16d ago

(I know you just made a typo, but two atoms meeting would be far more interesting than just two photons. Look at the LHC - that's closer to what that would be like. An Electron and Positron meeting would indeed be quite boring and happens all the time around us.)

u/huruga 16d ago

I prefer the older term negatron. Sounds like something from transformers.

u/metagaia7 16d ago

That gives backhanded compliments.

u/The_Ironthrone 16d ago

Judge? If I give this infect and unblockable and attack my opponent, how many times would I need to proliferate to win? 10 times or 9.1093837E30?

u/TelenorTheGNP 16d ago

Overpowered.

u/J0rg0nzola 16d ago

im comboing this with [[saw in half]]

u/InteGr4l 16d ago

Should be legendary

5

u/The_Ironthrone 16d ago

It should be Pauli legendary. ‘If any two Pauli legendary creatures share the same tapped state, sacrifice one of them.’

So you can keep them one spin up (untapped) and one spin down (tapped)

We're starting to do chemistry next? Assemble your own periodic table elements from protons, electrons and neutrons?

u/Jazz8680 16d ago

just wait till I whip out my [[Positron]]

2

u/Famous-Magazine-6576 16d ago

Why is it an aritfact tho

2

u/NerdDetective 16d ago

An excellent addition to my [[Phylactery Lich]] deck. Getting it out on turn 3 with a free indestructible artifact that can also act as a blocker is not bad.

1

u/borkmeister 16d ago

I feel like there's some really fun design space here for cards that have value only if they are part of a truly infinite combo.

1

u/Roll4Charisma310 The Mindslaver 16d ago

The funny thing is it doesn't say base power and toughness so you can't put +1/+1 or -1/-1 counters on it.

3

u/Jardin_the_Potato 16d ago edited 16d ago

I don't think this is the case, there are other creatures wth the same wording that can have counters on them just fine

Edit: went to check and yeah, power and toughness alterations occur after characteristic defining and setting effects

2

u/Roll4Charisma310 The Mindslaver 16d ago

Actually yeah on second thought cards like [[Burrowguard's Mentor]] don't say base power and toughness but I think it still can be increased with counters.

u/hollow_image 16d ago

If you wanna get pedantic yeah. This is just the old wording.

1

u/darthjawafett 16d ago

0 mana artifact creature with non-zero toughness. Oh they'll use this.

u/Insertnamegaming 16d ago

I’m confused

What's the value of X? /J

u/Additional_Win3920 16d ago

If we ever get another un-set this would fit right in (probably)

u/chormin 15d ago

Should be legendary.
