I’m more inclined to believe it’s more of an incomplete story though. Did he ask for effects after Kastle said no blockers? Did he ask for effects immediately after tapping creatures? Obviously the now proper thing to do is now to say “Blocker step?, no blockers, ok cast this” to clearly indicate what step we’re on or want to be in and not just ask for effects which could be any time. But there could be a case for him to want to get beyond the opportunity for Kastle to add defenders and still cast his spell if things are getting through. Regardless, if Kastle had an effect, HE COULD STILL ADD IT TO THE STACK, so Borer gains nothing from letting him pass and trying to angle shoot through an instant removal spell. Either we have a poorly written story, or a bad ruling.

I remember those days, thinking $20 for a Balduvian Horde was insane. That just had to be the ceiling for individual cards, right?

Mirage prices and the Visions release puts this squarely in my sophomore year of high school. Lots of fond memories. Visions is still my favorite set ever. I miss old Magic design (And being able to run four Strip Mines). I absolutely played both Yavimaya Ants and Shrieking Drake, though never together.

Seriously, so many mistakes!
