Casual Decks: Spidey vs TomB

[Spiderman]

Just as an FYI, you can always respond to your own spell first since you, as the active player, have priority. Once you say "Responses", it's meant that you don't have any effects and you're asking if I have any effects, as the second player to get priority. If I said no, then your spell would resolve - you can't cast a spell or use an effect because both players passed priority.

The "exception" is tapping land for mana, since that action doesn't use the stack and you can do it "whenever".

But no biggie, it's just the Hanger

No responses to Stitch in Time... did you want me to flip or you? I don't care if you do it...

 

[TomB]

kewl...I called it "in the air", so go ahead and flip please...

 

[Spiderman]

I flipped TAILS. Sorry....

 

[TomB]

Damn......Okay, I'll cast Plague Wind, looking to leech out that Undermine...Responses?

Okay, then I guess it resolves...You get the token creature first, I think, before the Pyroclasm happens, so I think you need to sac a permanent to the Tainted Æther, right?
