I don't know much about this game, but now its clear I know even less than I thought.

Yup the lore makes a lot of sense!

Last night, it was the night of the Friday of the Magic. My opponent had a miracle of the triumph of Saint Katherine and attacked me. But as their guard was down, my orcs bowmasters came in directly from the siege of Helm's Deep with their zombie army.

During the following attack, Kaito, a Japanese futuristic ninja planeswalker took their place and stunned Saint Katherine for several turns.

A clever combination of the force of my will and the command of a Dragon from the planes of Tarkir lead my march to victory.

There was the time I got attacked to death by an invincible squirrel. Also that time a Platinum Angel whispered in my ear that I wasn't allowed to have fun anymore.

"mill" decks are entirely based on making your opponent move cards from their deck directly to the graveyard, because when a player has to draw a card but can't, they lose the game.

thank you, how is that "bimbofication"?

[–] Zikeji@programming.dev 44 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The deck represents their accumulation of knowledge, and the graveyard represents the loss of it. Therefore, the goal is to cause their opponent to lose all their knowledge, thus becoming a "bimbo".

Thank you for your patience with me. I forgot there are other definitions of bimbo than sexy young not-so-smart lady.

[–] Zikeji@programming.dev 28 points 4 days ago

To be fair, bimbofication / bimbofying, as a kink / fetish, can describe turning anything into that, even if they happen to (formerly) be a middle aged balding man who wasted an unmentionable amount of money on cards.
