(In my graveyard there is a Fallout, Wrath of God, Pithing Needle and Austure Command)
Your opponent (playing RB blightning) is at 18 life, had 7 lands (2 being Ghitu Encampments Tapped) no creatures and he has 2 cards in hand.

Well to just stop trolling I will say you are the only people even of people I asked on MSN who wasn't tempted to keep the Encampments tapped down. his 2 cards in hand were Volcanic Fallout. |

| dont listen to the hate...everyone is so obsesses with winning that they assume thats the only goal...it's a game and different people play for different reasons...just because a deck is top tier doesnt mean its useless, the statistical fact is that most players are losers...if not winning wouldnt be important...id rather lose with this pile than a bonafied tier 1 deck...anyhow, i agree with the ajani then scepter play...either way, cool deck. I would play 1 cumber stone and im not sure about the fulminator mages but it seems neat. |

4 life is too low to keep the lands tapped, He still has 5 land so you'll die to any combination of haste creatures and burn. Or just a Javelin.
Did he top deck the land and win? |

I guess my way is the safer option, but your way if he doesnt win next turn he just loses.
Not sure which is the correct ply, there is merits for both |

Erm... You can't actually "respond" with Rings of Brightheart, since it's ability is triggered, not activated. The actual timing of abilites is as follows:
1. You activate Ajani Vengeant's ability (deal 3 damage, gain 3 life).
2. Rings of Brightheart triggers, and you put it on the stack.
3. You get priority, and pass.
4. Your opponent gets priority and can play Volcanic Fallout, it goes to the top of the stack.
5. If no one plays any more spells or abilities, Volcanic Fallout resolves, and deals 2 damage (your opponent may redirect them to Ajani Vengeant or not, as he chooses).
6. The ability of Rings of Brightheart resolves, and you may pay 2 mana to copy the ability of Ajani Vengeant and put it on the stack.
7. If you did, it will resolve and deal 3 damage, you gain 3 life.
8. The original ability of Ajani Vengeant resolves, and deals 3 damage, you gain 3 life. |
