Can someone rescue the game write up from discord?

Hideous for your opponents, but a laugh for you.

So we just kept passing turns until I drew my Displacer Beast and could turborun a dungeon to power up the enchantment. Oh also the way he got to -33 life was by me turning one of my ghasts into a Sylvan Shepherd with True Polymorph to win a combat and then powering it up with Wizard Class until it was 12/13. It was a VERY weird game!

oh so that's what was meant by an Exalted token; thanks
kinda disappointed that Platinum Angel and enlightened counters don't align on flavor
unless platinum is a level of enlightenment, like being a black belt in karate

yeah but how many "you can't lose / they can't win" cards have they printed in between
Angel's Grace - ok so I guess angels is a consistent theme. Abyssal Persecutor adds to that because demons are the opposite of angels
Gideon of the Trials - not an angel >: 3
