Spells have more priority when calculating the winner of the game. If a nexus were to die from spell damage before the opposing died from the minions on the board, the spell nexus would 'die first' and the winner would be declared.
So what if both nexus's die of spell damage? is it whichever spell killed a nexus first? If I were to mystic shot someones nexus and they mystic shotted me back would I lose?
I have seen one scenario where there was a tie. It was in one of Scarra's videos and both players drew the exact amount of puffcaps to kill them both instantly
I wonder then if that is the only way to achieve a tie. Because every other scenario has a predetermined order. And if that is the only way to achieve a tie in this game, I gotta say that they made some pretty robust systems. It aggravated me in the moment, but it makes sense once you put it into words
After many turns of my Shadow Isles control vs that 4000 IQ Heimerdinger deck thats showing up everywhere we hit the decisive finish, He had 1 HP on nexus I had 3. I swung with my 2 minions that if unblocked would do 10 damage. He had 2 minions to block but instead of blocking he played Get Excited targeting my nexus. I swiftly played Vile Feast in hopes that I could survive with one HP, but of course he had a mystic shot available as well. Then instead of putting up blockers he hit OK and everything went off. My 2 minions struck his nexus leaving him at -9 HP and his mystic shot brought me past the threshold to -1. But when the flashing colors were over it told me I lost, and I assumed it showed him victory.
We both dropped below 0, him even more so that I did. Why the hell did I lose?
I also want to add that when a card is returned to play from Detain it is considered a resummon.
I incidentally wiped 2 minions off my board when I returned a Crimson Awakener from its detainee
edit: I want to clarify that cards like Heart of the Fluft that have the keyword 'Play' will not repeat their effects. As that keyword can only be achieved when playing that card from your hand.
Well, lets say you play Mistwraith
any and all Mistwraiths are now 2-1
Your opponent then also plays a Mistwraith, they are now both 3-1
You detain your opponents mistwraith into your own mistwraith
He then uses Vile Feast on your mistwraith freeing his detained mistwraith, this counts as summoning the creature, so his mistwraith is now a 4-1
You then respond to that by playing mistwraith, both of your mistwraiths are now 5-1
I haven't played with mistwraith that much but I'm pretty sure this is how this works
So then in theory specifically:
