Melkor casts Vines of the Recluse on my Ogre. In response, I'll Flash Dualcaster Mage to copy it and choose TomB's Precinct Captain as the copy's target. Responses to any of that or move to Blockers?

Ogre blocks Nighthawk
Dualcaster Mage blocks Horror
Precinct Captain blocks Archfiend
Everyone else is unblocked
 

Oversoul

The Tentacled One
For some reason, I was sure that you could do that, but I just checked and it appears that you can't. Huh. I guess I was thinking of Two-Headed Giant and Archenemy is actually "Team vs. Team." Or something. Oops. And by now I've totally forgotten if this has come up before... :confused:

Anyway...

Vampire Nighthawk dies, Dualcaster Mage dies, Archfiend of Depravity dies, Gideon Jura takes 3 damage, and TomB takes 3 damage. That it?
 

Oversoul

The Tentacled One
Well, if I seem to have been making suboptimal attack choices, now you all know why. Oh well...

Vampire Nighthawk, done.

Added Explore to Melkor's graveyard

Untap, upkeep, Draw

TomB plays a Plains and casts Aegis Angel, targeting Gideon. He also activates Gideon's first ability.
Melkor plays an Island and casts Nissa, Worldwaker and uses her first ability on an Island.
Spidey casts Pathmaker Initiate

Done - Melkor taps his creatures to get rid of the scheme.

Well, I think it's everyone "who's able". So the Horrors that are supposed to be attacking me and TomB still have to, right?
