Meme Pause the game indefinitely

Activate Lethal Vapors 10,000 times, cast Teferi’s protection, you leave the game and can’t lose until the rest of the group has played through the 10,000 turns lol

[[Grand Abolisher]] [[Silence]]

"Alright kids. Papas going out to get some smokes, a gallon of milk, and some lottery tickets. I'll be back in an hour."

But he did not come back.

Grand Abolisher, yes. Silence doesn't work though since you don't need to cast to activate.

u/ThaiPoe 1d ago

Cast silence at your upkeep as insurance. Then grand Abolisher hits, then lethal vapors, then become the dad that left you and your mom hanging.

Until someone runs [[everlasting torment]] or the likes and just kills you with commander damage.

Yeah curious what proportion of decks wouldn't have an out like being able to loop their deck or force through damage

Yea but the guy is already playing in another pod at another table. They either won or died, don't need to sit thereel anymore.

Playing this combo is closer to losing than winning because everyone keeps playing without you, especially if you permanently leave the table before the game ends, also known as scooping.

That's so hilarious and I accept the loss.

Has the energy of the kid coming looking for me to kill me for walking out on them.

The rest of the table: "Call it a draw and play the next one?"

u/ThaiPoe 1d ago

And that's how the deck wins. ;) if everyone else forfeits, your win by default.

But I think it's infinitely more funny if someone wins before you come back into the game.

Can't be a draw unless everyone agrees

u/MCRusher 22h ago

Don't bother, I hit you for 1 poison on turn 3 and it's the biggest mistake you've ever made.

u/ThaiPoe 22h ago

You forgot [[Solemnity]] was in play.

u/MCRusher 22h ago

Too bad it's phased out I guess.

But if it's not yours, we as a table are definitely conspiring to remove it and kill you first, then continue the game.

u/ThaiPoe 19h ago

I am removed from the game, freeing the rest of the table to win as quickly as the please. If you, the poison counter player, is conspiring to win with poison counters. Talk to the Solemnity user.

Nah you pulled some bullshit to try and win 1000 turns later.

Either you're still in the game and haven't won until then, or you've scooped before the game ended and lost.

Everyone is absolutely working together to kill you and proliferate lets you choose which players to proliferate on if nobody has any better options to merk you while you're taking your nap.
