Round 2 game 3 was a particularly magnificent example of just how much small decisions matter. Specifically, sacrificing Urborg to Smallpox rather than one of the basic swamps, thereby forcing the opponent to spend I think six life on Ancient Tomb with their Retrofitter Foundry. Almost certainly a game-winning difference. Beyond that, this was just generally a magnificent video. Please do keep the hits coming!

27 lands is wasted without nethervoid, pox is a mana denial deck/// nvr forget the main line. I guess this version is going for big pox into bloodghast - sounds neat! i use infernal tutor to grab silver bullets: x1 nether void, x1 chains of m. , x1 ensnaring bridge, x1 cursed scroll and 2 bitter blossoms. the bridge stops attacks while bblossom creates a wincon in the air. b blossom also great on defense.. its so good in pox i also run 2 in the side board.

This is really hear-warming for someone who knows Pox very well. A friend of mine played Pox while it was the most expensive deck in Legacy at the time of Grixis Delver dominance, with all goodies like Nether Void, Chains etc. One time, at MKM Series Rome, he won first round playing RG Lands which he HAD LOST, leaving the deckbox on the table while going to the bathroom. After announcement and fruitless search, he was allowed to continue playing the tournament with another deck he had with him - Pox. That was the only time I've heard about something like that. Congrats on the trophy! Well done, tough matchups :)

@christopherlundgren1700

Straight from Gatherer: If an effect says “You may search your library . . . If you do, shuffle your library” or “You may search your library . . . then shuffle your library,” your opponents can't choose to search, so they won't shuffle. If an effect says “Search your library . . . then shuffle your library,” your opponents shuffle their libraries even though they can't search. So if the shuffling is contingent on the search, then no shuffling happens. If it's independent of the search, the shuffling is still mandatory.
