Nice Play: LSV blocks a Wasteland Viper

In M1G2 of this draft, Luis Scott-Vargas uses a 3/3 Centaur to block a 1/2 deathtouch creature and stay at 17 life:


He says, "I think rather than taking a bunch of damage and then trading for it, I should just trade for it. The Centaur's not getting in there anyway, so no reason not to."

I would never have thought of this block. I don't know if it's right, but it's clever. It's also tough to read why the opponent would be attacking with just Wasteland Viper.
