    I cast Tormod's Crypt and then play a Swamp. I tap the Swamp to play two Dark Rituals, giving me 5 black mana in my pool. I spend one of that casting Demonic Consultation. I name Borborygmos. My deck does not have Borborygmos. I spend two more mana to sinkhole my swamp. Then I cast One With Nothing, sacrifice my Tormod's Crypt, and place my exiled deck back into its card box.

    I end my turn.

        You may pay 1 life and remove a blue card in your hand from the game instead of paying Force of Will's casting cost. Effects that prevent or redirect damage cannot be used to counter this loss of life. Counter target spell.

        One of very few cards you can play with nothing on the board lol.

        I didn't know we were playing Pauper tho, sorry.

          Ah, I remembered that card wrong then. I thought you exiled a blue card on the board from the game, not your hand

      Untap, upkeep. I play Tramway Station, then tap one red mana to play Goblin Grenade, sacrificing Goblin Arsonist and targeting you for 5 and 1 damage. Your life total is now at 14. Pass

        I play a swamp for turn and tap it for one black, using it to cast two Dark Rituals for a total of 5 black that I use to cast Hatred, targeting my Goblin Arsonist. I spend 9 life to give my arsonist +9/+0. I swing at you for 10 damage. Then I cast Fling, and sacrifice my arsonist, dealing you another 10 damage. GG

    Idk if it was just my personal experience, but to me MTG peaked around M11-M13 and hasn't felt the same since

      IMO mtg peaked with Urzas block and hasn't been the same since so I missed m11-m13 completely. I just got back in to commander hard though and I've been trying to catch up with everything I've missed.
