Theros Intro Packs: Spidey (Devotion to Darkness) vs Mooseman (Anthousa's Army)

Mooseman

Isengar Tussle
It's only three because the Mystic was used for mana.
Hand is

1W Battlewise Valor (, I, Target creature gets +2/+2 until end of turn. Scry 1.)
G Warrior’s Lesson (, I, Until end of turn, up to two target creatures you control each gain "Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, draw a card.")

Whew! Okay, hold up... first, don't you draw 2 cards since both your creatures dealt combat dmg?

Second, you had WGG tapped from the instants during combat, so that leaves WG free, right? I don't think that's enough to cast the Bow, let alone use it, right?
 

Mooseman

Isengar Tussle
Sorry.
You are right, doing this while busy at work is not good for keeping it straight
I drew 1 card (draw a card)
play a forest and cast the bow, but don't use it.

Has to be damage to a player

Untap, upkeep, Draw
And that is game

Forest doesn't do it.

Great game for you, a one creature drop for the win.

I'll try Mainpulative Monstrosities next

Oooooh.

Whew, good game! You had the answers until I managed to get him out. I had Sea God's Revenge which would buy me a turn or two after that but that was pretty much it.

Onto the next!
