The mechanic "Flash" is typically put on a creature or enchantment card which you could usually only play on your turn during the first and second main phase. Flash gives these cards the ability to be played at any time.


Double strike is similar to first strike. The creature deals damage to the other creature(s) before they have a chance to deal their damage. Think of a gun at a knife fight. That's first strike.

DOUBLE strike on the other hand is like shooting the other creature, then bashing them in the face lol.

So for double strike if my guy is 2/2 and defender is 1/4. My guy attacking with double strike actually kills the 1/4?


And a Card with flash i can cast it like a spell? I saw a creature card with flash on it. It confused me.

Mostly yes, if you have in play a wall of omens and the opponent has a Urabrask the hidden attacking you you can cast the Celestial Crusader and block with the wall and the wall will survive.

but for example if that player had cast assault strobe on Urabrask the hidden then the wall would die, because it would receive 4 first and then they would deal theyr normal damage to each other..

Or, making it even trickier, you can assign Wall of Omens to block, then cast Whitemane Lion and return Wall of Omens to you hand. The attacking creature is blocked, but wall of Omens doesn't receive combat damage :)

In an average situation where the shooter is using a standard holster and does not know where knife boy is and knife boy is trained, then yes: knife wins.

If the shooter knows it's coming: shooter wins, barely

Shooter is using (my?) custom holsters: shooter wins, barely (safety off, weapon out, aim, shoot in 0.3 seconds flat)

No worries. I use a Spanish dictionary plugin para revisar mi Español cuando necesito.

Despite this, I posses a minor problem relating to the application of superfluous diction across a multitude of situations [read: I use too many big words/uso demasiado palabras largos].

You have a strong understanding of English, much more than most non-native speakers I see.
Get this: we understand you! It is amazing! There is a slight sense that English is your second language, but it is smaller than normal. (that is a complement!)

When it comes to two people that know what they are doing, according to some tests, 7 times out of 10 the knife wins if the gun and knife are both pointed at the ground before they start.
I should also mention the setting was an ally way, and the distance was between 8 and 10 feet.
