Derek [who cracked a fantastic Planeswalker], Matt, and Jack did not fair as well–actually, I think Jack was undefeated–but Derek struggled and Matt got crushed.
We had more questions on Double Strike and blocking–still something that confuses the boys–we think Double Strike deals damage two times [once during first strike, once during normal combat], even when it is blocking.
The First Strike vs Deathtouch also came up again–we think First Strike damage is applied before Deathtouch & if the creature dies during First Strike Phase Deathtouch does not come into play.
And finally we had a question about the Grull Keyrune
can the Rug Cutter be summoned and turned into a creature in one turn for 3RG? We voted that it could–Artifacts do not have summoning sickness.
