Announce Attack

You Played Change of Heart w/ buyback on Prowler.

I attacked w/ Basilisk & Wurm

You blocked wurm w/ both licids

I assigned damage to Tempting Licid, You activated him and attached him to my prowler, Wurm Died.

Play Rabid Rats, Play Cannibalize on my Prowler and my Colony (sacrificing prowler - give Colony 2 +1/+1 counters)

Done.

Expensive way to make one less licid - couldn't get you to tap out in R...

Nope.

I have to say, without Scapegoat, this game would have been over ages ago with infestation... so if I come out of it with anything but a loss, I'm ok... It's going to be tough going for either of us to grind out a win. But I'm almost out of gas...

You have BuyBack, and now a way to get your unkillable blockers back (one of which happens to kill anything of mine he blocks... I think you'll be fine...

Yeah, the Infestation was my one chance for an outright win. I don't think I'll be able to pull this off though...

Activate the Existence and discard Dream Prowler for the Tempting Licid.
Cast it

I can't, I miscalculated and am at my 10 lands already :(

Pay WRRU for Change of Heart w/buyback on your Basilisk.

Do you feel you can win this game?

I don't believe I can, I also don't know that you can either...

I'm willing to call it a draw.

I'm not sure, I still have Brush with Death, so as long as I can cast it and use my Licids as blockers, I think I can beat you. Do you agree or want to play it out and see?

If you use the brush, you can't use change of heart...

That's why I think you can't win.

Actually, now that you have both licids back and I sac'd the prowler, you're right... I'll never be able to get through both licids and the wall.

Good Game.

My last 3 cards were Torment (useless against Licids), Hidden Retreat (could have made the brush impotent for 2 turns w/ useless cards), and Crossbow Ambush (Great, if you had fliers...)
