Is there a card that wins you the game if your opponent went first?

Asked by Legendinc 14 years ago

I have only been playing Magic for about less than a full year, and a friend who had been playing longer (though not like Limited Edition Alpha status or anything like that) told me of a fabled card that won you the game....if your opponent went first.

Is there such a card?

Based on a search of all cards ever printed in magic that contain the text or oracle text "You Win The Game", this card does not exist.

well as long as they play a creature and by 1 card you mean 5 you could Path to Exile their creature and cast 4 Archive Trap s for free milling them ;D otherwise the closest card i can think of that has a silly 'win con' is Divine Intervention which draws the game. I can't think of any card that would rely on the opponent going first though.

also i am not really trying to be helpful at all (another cool one is first turn forest exile Elvish Spirit Guide Channel for 17 play and equip Lightning Greaves to an Emrakul, the Aeons Torn and win before they have had a go due to the extra turn)

Possibly the card is Jace Beleren making them draw until they mill themselves because they drew before you?

ps Sorry i am tired and have exams atm so attempting to procrastinate. Stupid uni and its exams...(shakes fist in the general direction of uni)

Well I know of such fabled card they were MOST LIKELY talking about. This is only because the card ONLY works if your opponent went first. That card is Gemstone Caverns . This card initiates a combo which wins you the game turn zero. I say turn zero because you actually win before they even get the chance to play draw a card for their first turn. However, the problem with the combo is that many of the card required are restricted so the chances of you ever pulling it off on turn zero are slim to none.

A link to show you how it works is here:
