Verdant Tree isn’t a unit, so it doesn’t get a rune from Plague Lab’s Arrives effect. Other than that, that was a brutal play!

Ah ok thanks! Still getting the hang of this game.

I’ll patrol Sirius in the technician slot instead.

edit: updates wisps to be 1/2 due to midori midband

sorry man, i should have manually updated that. that potentn basilisk was summoned to the field by garth. ill manually update my discard, and you can redo your turn.

58

Also, i think Jurisdiction is a Bigby spell. so quince/orpal wont be able to cast it.

59

Nuts you’re right, I’ll re-do! Sorry.

I’ve also corrected my graveyard accordingly.
