Pseudo Newb and Mogg Flunkies plus Are We Not Planeswalkers?

Rules that had to be asked about or looked up this weekend.

Mogg Flunkes actually has 7 judges tournament notes. The question was whether or not Mogg Flunkies needed to have a friend block the same critter or if it only needed the friend to be blocking SOME creature at the same time.

I thought it would be that as long as someone was blocking somewhere on your side Mogg Flunkies could do their collectivist bit.

That ended up being correct.

Are we not Planeswalkers?

Yeah, apparently as far as the mechanics go, no. No we are not.

It's too sad to write about yet so I'll just copy the tweets.

@CranialTweet does magmaquake effect the player Planeswalkers too or just the card based ones?(I will be sad if we're not Planeswalkers too)

C) @DreamtimeDrinne In terms of game mechanics, players aren't planeswalkers, and vice versa. Magmaquake does not deal damage to players.

@DreamtimeDrinne

@CranialTweet while that makes the card strictly better it makes the flavor much sadder. Thanks.

@CranialTweet @DreamtimeDrinne And yet Wizards seems to love pushing that "You are a planeswalker!' line. Hurts their own rules...

@leon14344 @cranialtweet I will be adding it to my list of "why I hate Planeswalker cards and characters" : / ‪#SadVorthosInTheSnow‬

Cranial Insertion is run by two Level Two Judges and a Level Three Judge.

They are super good at explaining rules in a way that doesn't make you feel dumb or crazy
