- Buckle up, because this one is going the distance. Two Hall of Fame Pros, Raphaël Lévy and Paulo Vitor Damo da Rosa, square off in a control-on-control matchup for the ages in the first round of Modern at Pro Tour Rivals of Ixalan.
Full Coverage: magic.wizards....
So this is what I see from the video. Levy casts Spreading Seas on Hallowed Fountain. He then goes to draw a card from his deck (9:59). Paulo then says he will tap for white mana before Spreading Seas resolves. Levy already doing the act of going to draw the card shows that he knows about the trigger and hasn’t forgotten it. That’s what the judge is saying. Because he physically went to draw the card initially, it shows he remembered his trigger, and doesn’t have to declare it. Just because he didn’t take it off the top of the deck yet and said “attacks” doesn’t mean he forgot it or take away from the fact that he did attempt to draw from his deck. If I were there, I would probably rule the same way. The judge did offer the chance to appeal, but I think he explained it well enough that Paulo understood.
One of the best control vs control games ever
One of the sickest games of MTG that's been played in a long time.
Rewatching this and hear, “I don’t know if someone is playing lantern control” and I just had flashbacks Vietnam War style from the top 8
Isso sim é jogo O melhor U|w CONTROL QUE EU JA VI SEGUROU ATÉ O FINAL !
Starts at 3:56
I like how Paulo didn’t shuffle when his sunken ruin was destroyed by field after putting the 3 cards on the bottom
1:06:28 "That was a fun little match"
Yeah fairly, you should see standard control vs control match-ups when they play memory of commit//memory. Lets go through our entire decks, twice.
48:14 straight-up cheating ?
Seemed pretty clear he meant glacial fortress. That "tap in response" move made it look like Da Rosa understood too. Also doesn't help how it looks that he put the seas completely under the land (I know that's what he did on the others too it just made that whole move look sketch).
Most definitely.
It’s annoying how the commentators sugar coat the rules lawyering by Paulo as “miscommunication”. It wasn’t miscommunication, Raph went to resolve his trigger and then when he was interrupted Paulo tried to take advantage of the situation.
Shouldnt Levy have lost for drawing a card when he shouldn’t have? That’s a game loss where I come from.
lol that sneaky judgement call by paulo to deny levy the card draw from spreading seas.
This was very close, but the decision to bounce seas instead of his land seemed fatal. PVD wins if he snaps back Crpytic instead of Logic knot on turn 0 of time called too, I think. Because he can helix Levy, then snap back another Cryptic (which would still be in grave after not casting Knot) to counter seas and bounce a snap again, you can just throw multiple helix's the turn Visions decks you, I think?
Raphaël Lévy deck list ???
Paulo letting Levy attack with Colonnade was a big punt. You know he has Condemn in his deck, why not Path at beginning of combat?
isn't it funny that this is a match where Simon Goertzen was consistently wrong at almost every stage of the game. He said Runed Halo naming burn spells would be a waste, & then changed his tune later when Paulo started throwing helixes at Raph's head. Then he said that a game coming down to decking/extra turns was possible but unlikely, & then that us exactly what happened
to be fair a control mirror normally doesnt really care about burn spells as removal (the primary function) and the likelihood of it coming down to decking is typically extremely low
@@nebDDa That is accurate, however the Control mirror not using all that burn for removal typically means the majority of it gets pointed at the opponent, which is where Runed Halo naming the bolts & helixes is actually useful. Simon missed this rather obvious fact until it was literally already happening
@@nebDDa But you are correct in that 1 game going all the way to turns, & ckming down to decking is not typical of Modern Control mirrors, I just found it thoroughly ironic that everything the so called expert said wouldn't happen is exactly what happened
The armhair on this dude...
Just let him draw the damn card. Don't argue with judge. Way to make it not fun
Adrian Crowther Yeah. With his logic I can stop everyone from drawing cards by asking them "What?" before they do.
no. he missed his trigger by going to the attack step. he isnt supposed to draw. im too nice id let them. but the reason paulo helixed him is because he went to his attack step after paulo floated the mana.
If the game state actually did move the attack step, you would probably be right. It did not though. Why? Because if he had "moved to the attack step" then the mana would be emptied from the mana pool and he wouldn't have white mana to cast the helix. Therefore, we are still in the main phase and the topmost ability or spell would still be on the stack. In this case, his draw trigger. This head judge is the head judge of the Pro Tour for a reason.
Yeah; and then he even argued with the judge over it making it really awkward..
Blake A. Exactly lol!
Why do they have purple hair.
WOW!!!
Incredible how everytime I see a brazilian player on camera he tries to cheat
everyones wrong lol.. so.. Paulo floats white. Raphael says attack without drawing his card. He misses his trigger here. Paulo helixes him because he assumed he was going to attack step. So when Raphael decides he wants to draw his card its actually too late. Official rule. Im not the type, but this is the actual rule.
i would argue that Raphael couldnt go to attack in the first place. Spreading seas was on the stack and Paulo cast Helix in response, so seas had to resolve (since it's an enchantment and not an instant) before Raphael could exit his main phase. So the true mistake was him attempting to go to combat step imo
I will say it again, if they did go to attack, the mana pool would empty and he would not be able to cast Helix. Therefore, they did NOT go to the next step and the ability is still on the stack.
@@destroyer8000Levy wanted to go to attack. So he missed his draw trigger. And can’t draw the card. The fact that he later tried to draw a card without reason to do so, is a game loss.
If Paulo had bounced his own Glacial rather than the Spreading Season it, it would've stopped Raphael from recasting the Seas and giving his white source the ability to tap Raph's end step and cast a lethal Secure the Wastes. At least giving him that chance.
52:15
This should have been the play. Bouncing Spreading Seas gave Levy two methods of forcing the Secure into his Verdict or Sphere, when Paulo only had one counter left.
I think because so many bounce spells don't let you bounce your own things, and so many bounce spells don't let you bounce lands, I think he just had the oversight that he could bounce his OWN LAND
watching it over again, i hear that the commentator pointed this play out as well.
At the point he did it, Levy couldn’t afford to replay spreading seas, or he would have been decked first (the ancestral visions obviously changed the situation though).
I never lose to blue white my clock burn is so good in the matchup
is this 10 fps or what ?
your computer just sucks
hahhahh XD nice Answer :P
This game made me hate PVDDR
Omg what a dreary match...
Everyone mad at Paulo but he was right.
Great way to support you argument; "He was right." I'll put equal effort in: No he wasn't.
Blake A. The other dude missed his trigger. It is in no way Paulo’s fault that the other guy can’t remember what his own cards do. It should have been considered a missed trigger. This is the PT. You shouldn’t be allowed to not know what your own cards do.
moderm is so boring to long play
Josephel Escalona you mean control mirrors
First
