It really all comes down to this: If your opponent performed the last action you cannot deprive him of the opportunity to play a dominant by being physically faster than him. You can deprive your opponent of the opportunity to play a dominant by being mentally faster than him.If a player immediately knows they want to respond to their own action with a dominant, they get to. But each moment they spend deciding if they want to respond with a dominant is an opportunity they give their opponent to sneak a dominant in first.
Say there is an RA and I have a 2 liner. my intention is to surrender the LS and then bury it. Should I announce that intention to do so to eliminate the possibility of my opponent sneaking in a SOg/NJ while I move my hand back to my cards to play burial?In other words, should we announce our intention to respond to our own action when playing dom's to avoid confusion ehen we plan to play multiple doms in this fashion.
For instance example, YOU CANNOT make two rescue attempts in one turn, grapes allows this.
so if i understand correctly, a player may respond to his own action as many times as he wants with as many dominants/optional use abilities as they choose, and they all get priority before the opponent?
The only problem that I have is this. Say there is an RA and I have a 2 liner. my intention is to surrender the LS and then bury it. Should I announce that intention to do so to eliminate the possibility of my opponent sneaking in a SOg/NJ while I move my hand back to my cards to play burial?
Oh so I can slap down sog nj after mayhem now? the reason I say this is because someone did that in a game vs me today and mayhem was clearly played first.
It depends. If you just drew/searched for one or both SoG/NJ and played them immediately, you are responding to your own action, and if you were clearly intending to play them as soon as you got them, then you get priority.However, if you are not performing such an action, and your opponent plays Mayhem, then you can't out of the blue say that you were planning on playing SoG/NJ and play them.
I three. Lets say I have Sog/NJ and I am debating on playing them. While I am waiting and thinking, My opponent plays Mayhem. I DO NOT get to play SOg/NJ before I shuffle and draw. I just lost them..too bad..soo sad.NOW. lets say I played false peace to search for NJ when I already have SOG in my hand. After I search and then shuffle my deck (because shuffling the deck is an unwritten part of the SA of any search card), My opponent plays mayhem. I CAN play SoG/NJ and say.."I am responding to my search" and then shuffle and draw due to mayhem.This is a legitimate play

But what if my opponent was...DUH, Duh, duh......MJB...and we were BOTH playing ANB decks.
