comment When should I activate Man Lands and Keyrunes in order to attack with them?
@Rawrgramming I did confirm: there are no established shortcuts. "716.1a The rules for taking shortcuts are largely unformalized. As long as each player in the game understands the intent of each other player, any shortcut system they use is acceptable."

Your point about the shortcuts is also misleading. There are no shortcuts officially listed in the rules. Shortcuts may be suggested in the rules, but shortcuts only officially exist between two players as mutually understood by those players. Those shortcuts may or may not be the same examples given by the rules.

I believe it's incorrect actually. You get priority there. For example, you declare attacks, I can detain/kill/tap your creatures with instant speed abilities and spells during that step. If I detained your creature after it attacked (i.e. in my part of the declare attackers step) the creature would still be attacking.

comment How can I used double-faced cards in casual play w/out checklist cards?
Big support for using a basic land. I usually use a land that I don't already have in my deck. I don't usually use mountains, because unless my deck contains red, I use mountains to represent shock lands :-)

comment Does Goblin Electromancer reduce both sides of a fused split card?
The key is that it says "You may cast both halves" not "You may cast both spells" - the former says it's one spell with two components, while the later says it's two spells on one card. It's like a card that says "Choose one or both" except that those cards have the same cost regardless, while this goes up if you choose both.

comment Does transforming keyrunes count towards Evolve?
@ikegami People's perception of a question do not change the actual properties of those questions. "It's only a different question if" means "It's a different question" and, ergo, not a duplicate. You cannot rely on knowing the answer to categorize the question. This is a fundamental tenet of the Stack Exchange philosophy.

comment Can regeneration save my creatures from Turn // Burn?
When you say "with regeneration" do you mean "with an activated ability allowing it to regenerate" or "with a regeneration shield"?

comment Is there a term for: “Doesn't untap during next untap step”?
If you don't think mountains get exhausted, try being a mountain for a day!! Sure they only move a micrometer a day, but for a mountain, it's a lot of work!

comment Are there multiplayer equivalents to trading places after the first move?
My first thought is this would be absolutely horrible for Magic the Gathering. But then I started thinking about it, and it might actually be a helluvalotta fun to swap decks!

comment If I were to “cheat” a card into play, would Kurgadon activate?
I don't know if you can say "clearly" - Digerdoo's card text states "as though it had just been summoned" - when you consider the vast number of rules around summoning, this text is hardly clear in any stretch of the imagination. It might be an easy decision for those familiar with the rules, but it is not immediately clear, given the text on the card, that it you do not treat the creature the same as having been cast.

comment Why does Wizards of the Coast print terrible MTG cards?
Regarding your "and it's a mythic rare" comment: rarity has less to do with power level or "good-or-bad"ness as it does with "How often do you want this to show up in draft?" Archangel's Light is an incredibly powerful card in draft. You probably have six or seven cards in your graveyard when you cast it, so that's a good 12 or 14 life, plus you're going to have a good chance to get your best bombs back. Is it on the same power level as a Grave Titan? Not even close. But you don't want it showing up in draft very often.
