Reno Lone Ranger - Logic Problem

“Looking for a standoff? Careful, it’s against me!”

A high noon is a 1vs1. Not a 1 vs Reno and all his minions.

Logically it would make much more sense to have his effect on both sides to make it a high noon 1 vs 1.

With this I would also be okay to lower his cost again and not be so frustrated when a 16 mana druid plays him and an entire bunch of other stuff on his turn without me being able to do anything about it.

In the context of the 1 vs 1 Western Showdown it’s a myth created by Hollywood. Wild Bill Hickok was one of the few if any real historical figures that did this. He did it out of pride though because he was faster than any man alive. Before him it was tried a few times that are recorded but it quickly faded as a fad because giving someone a fair chance to kill you in a fight was a BAD IDEA. Most gun fights were by ambush, group or just plain old shoot them in the back.

If anything the Reno card is a better representation of how unfair it was supposed to be. It should be fairly obvious just by the art work and the function of the card “Showdown!” that it was never a 1 on 1 affair.

Reno is telling his opponent that he’ll play unfairly; otherwise, why would a coward like Reno warrant caution in another.

Have more than 1 win condition in your deck n don’t put all your win conditions on the board at the same time.

You’re welcome.

Logically, knights shouldn’t be afraid of lightning because they’re in faraday cages (and wizards can’t shoot it either, since it would travel STRAIGHT down to the ground immediately after leaving their fingertips).

That’s why you gotta be a wizard riding a dragon, so you can shoot down at your enemies
