Yep so if I cast a Bog imp, my opponent casts Cancel in response but then I cast Autumn's Veil. (Who made this crazy deck, lol) The stack will look like this: Autumn's Veil, cancel, bog imp. So the Veil makes blue and black counters not work, which makes cancel not work thus the bog imp lands on the battlefield ready to dish out some pain with muck-encrusted claws So in your example C.rift is cast, you twincast, the copy of c.rift is created. The stack will be 'copy'c.rift, original c.rift.

Got it.
Here's the situation: going against a player who uses C.Rift to intercourse everyone at the table and then just draws the game out. Dropping a couple of Twincast into a deck with Warped Devotion enchantments in it. He casts C.Rift Overloaded, I cast Twincast to copy it... mine resolves first, he (and everyone else) picks up all non-land and then has to discard that many cards.
Think that'll work?

I'm not bothered that his C.Rift goes off, I just want him to suffer as well...
Plan B is a white deck with Balance... at least our cards are in-hand, his will be sacked!

Might do a draft tournament with my friend and a couple of guys this weekend using Ixalan. Did poorly last time, but that was a few years ago.
Crazy to think that I've been playing off and on for over twenty years. Wish I played more frequently and got deeper into it over the years.

As long as Platinum Angel is on the battlefield you can't lose the game, so bringing her back from the graveyard or anywhere else won't kill you.

So I found a new store on the bus route. I will magic again starting next week! Four Rivals spoilers are out: {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Angrath the Flame-Chained planeswalker. 3/1 R/1B and comes in with 4 loyalty markers. Mythic. +1 Each Opponent discards a card and loses 2 life -3 Gain control of target creature until end of turn. Untap it. It gains haste until end of turn. Sacrifice it at the beginning of the next end step if it has CMC of 3 or less. -8 Each opponent loses life equal to the number of cards in his or her graveyard {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Atzocan Seer. 1/1G/1W and uncommon with 2 power and 3 defense. Tap, add one mana of any color to pool. Sac it, return target dinosaur creature from graveyard to hand. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}River Darter for 2 and a blue, 2 power and 3 defense. Common. Can't be blocked by dinosaurs. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Thrashing Brontodon. 1 and 2 green, uncommon, 3 power and 4 defense. tap 1 mana, destroy target artifact or enchantment. So yeah...Merfolk tribal HAS to be a thing. The first 2 merfolk cards revealed for Rivals are nuts.

Another spoiler out: {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler} Kumena, Tyrant of Orazca for 1/g/b, 2/3 and it's a Legendary Creature. Has: -Tap untapped merfolk you control, Kumena can't be blocked. -Tap 3 untapped merfolk you control. Draw a card. -Tap 5 untapped merfolk you control, out a 1/1 counter on each merfolk you control. Looks like the merfolk deck can be splashed for white now (Gideon.) Even more here: mythicspoiler.com/

Bought a box of Unstable. Got a foil Very Cryptic Command with the rare alternate artwork, I'm told it's worth around $60. That pays for half the box.
Also got a foil Forest, the foil land is supposed to be pricey too.

Congrats!

Well I didn't intentionally get any Magic related items, however I did get one Kaladesh Booster pack as a stocking filler. Alas a lot of the cards I already had and I didn't get a cool invention. However I did get this guy as my rare: Although not worth much I am thinking of building a commander/edh deck with him.

However I did get this guy as my rare: Although not worth much I am thinking of building a commander/edh deck with him. Not big on the rules for Commander... This card only has an effect when it comes into play, and you can cast your Commander over again if it dies but it costs more each time, right? If it costs more each time, doesn't that reduce it's effectiveness?
