I'm looking for a game of this. Stephen Menendian wrote an article about it on starcitygames a few weeks ago. It's premium, but if you have premium you can find it here http://www.starcitygames.com/magic/misc/16754_So_Many_Insane_Plays_Zero_Variance_The_Ultimate_Mental_Magic_Format.html .

Anyone want to play? Either in this thread, or a more private medium. I have an opening I'd like to try out, and nobody at my local shop cares about Mental Magic.

Looks like peeps are scared of your Mental MTG capabilities. If you are still interested pop a reply and I sling some mental magic with ya.

Thanks dude, yeah I still want to play. Sorry it took so long to reply, I haven't been online all day.

I'd like to draw first, if you don't mind.

I'll begin the game with Gemstone Caverns in play, removing Vesuva from the game. Puts me at 5 cards.

End of your turn, tap Caverns for R to play Overload on Chrome Mox (no kicker).

Play Utopia and pass the turn.

Me:
2 cards in hand
Tropical Island tapped. Utopia and Exploration untapped.
20 life.
(keeping track of removed cards seems like it'll get cumbersome before long, so unless you insist that I do it, I'm gonna stop)

You:
4 cards in hand
20 life
