    41:55 Rules clarification! Actually, you can take Dance of the Tumbleweeds here! Spree works like kicker rather than an X spell, so if you cast it without paying its mana cost because of hideaway, plot, or cascade/discover, you can pay the additional spree cost with mana to cast the card. The free aspect reduces the baseline cost to 0 (in this case, the 1G cost). But unlike kicker, spree is not optional so if you don’t have 1 mana available after meeting the hideaway condition, you can’t cast the card at all (to trigger 2 spell stuff, for example).

    Awesome draft! I have a quick rules question, at 1:29:31 when you attacked with the armadillo and they double blocked with the shepherd and the bighorn, it brought up a menu of how you could distribute the damage. It looked like it gave you the option to do more damage to the shepherd and less damage to the bighorn, but not the opposite. Could you explain why? I'm not sure I understand the rules for double blocking and assigning damage.
  • is there a particular reason for the guests to not participate in the gameplay too?
