That's awesome! Glad it was helpful even if it was generic advice. Don't be surprised if your friend starts coming back with some new techs to counter your play style. You have started the arms race in a very small meta lol.

I think it's one of those we are only giving you one statistic to make it look favorable things. As a whole at least in the US Netflix revenue went down by 2 or 3 million from the previous year. Their number of accounts is going up, but if you look at where, it is in developing countries in Africa.

That's why God had to release part 2 of the bible, cuz he's such a dick in the first book. Also why Satan rebranded as Santa.

Brandon Sandersons Stormlight Chronicles, the first book is on there as "The way of Kings" will really scratch that Game of Thrones itch if that it what you are looking for. Definitely leans more into the magic/fantasy aspects than GoT though.

If you use one of the apps they usually have an option to block a person, community, or instance. Not sure if there is a shortcut or setting for foreign language you probably just have to block them as you see them.

Yea, we are all there to play magic, not shuffle simulator. No reason to slow the game down before it even really started. We all had a good laugh about it, but I def put a target on my head after that.

Yes you are right. Idea still stands, but my wording is incorrect and should be stated as just toughness. Distinctions like this can matter in magic.

I've dipped my toes into cedh and have been playing mono black [[k'rrik, son of yawgmoth]]. Playing more of a midrange creature combo than storm. Very glass cannon build, and def has some extremely bad match ups but that's just how it goes. It often goes off between turn 3-5 if left unchecked. Had a magical Christmas land hand and won turn 1 going second in a 4 man pod. Just reshuffled and moved last in the turn order instead of everyone restarting lol.

Here is some general advice that will get you started and then you can keep making adjustments from there. First off, especially in 1v1 you want to know which deck is the aggressor and which deck is playing more of control. Normally fae play a weird mix of both which is considered tempo, but for the sake of this post let's label your friend as the aggressive deck and you as the control deck.

Next is knowing threat assessment. Since the two angels you mentioned seem to be the combo you have problems with we will focus on that. A simple start is counter magic. You play a land, pass turn style where you are constantly holding up counter magic for the specific threats, or enablers that would get those threats. You will also play a lot of instant speed spells to take advantage of turns he either plays nothing or nothing you want to counter. These would be creatures with flash and instant speed card draw.

You won't always have counter magic available and sometimes threats get through so your next option is removal.

Since your problem seems to be indestructible creatures there are two things to do. First are exile spells, and second are spells that give -×/-×. If a creature has 0 base toughness it dies, indestructible or not. Cards like [[tragic slip]] for single target or [[toxic deluge]] for board wipes. Honorable mention is a card like [[killing wave]] that will make him sacrifice his creatures.
