Hey,
That is 5 elders in agreement on this. There is no good reason to still be talking about this.
I couldn't disagree more. The purpose of this board isn't just to find out/decide what a ruling is but also to help the players understand it. If a player disagrees with a ruling I'm happy to listen and try to understand a different (their) point of view, but I lose patience quickly with players that argue based on what's best for their deck or argue without being open to the possibility that they are wrong.
If you think a ruling is wrong, you should argue it until you are either convinced other by the rules or you convince the opposition to agree with you.
The problem is that its possible for neither of those to happen. There are times when you have to accept that the official ruling may not be the best ruling but just play by it anyway.
...or using it for the year and getting combo smacked at Nat's or regionals?
I know what that feels like
...maybe I shouldn't have brought that up ;-)
So, Lambo arguing the 2kh vs. Angel's Sword on Michael was pointless?
That was SOOOO my argument
Tschow,
