Played standard at last nights FNM (Drafted release night) with a turnout of ~25 people. Deck did very well overall and played out expected with few hiccups. Here is the break down:

Match 1 MBA vs UW Approach - Honestly did not expect to see any approach decks but I …

This one will be short and sweet as I'm typing from iPad.

Round 1: MB vs Mardu Dragons (2-1)
This one was fairly close as their threats were air based and could close quickly if left unchecked. Hand disruption takes away Thunderbreak Regent so that removal doesn't hurt.

Round 2: …

Results: 1 - 3 overall. Pretty disappointing, to be honest, but that's why we playtest :) More importantly, it's a great starting point. Faced a fair amount of meta-ish decks tonight for FNM, with the exception of 4C Company. Would not be surprised to see half my LGS at the …

Overall, another solid performance from the deck. This deck seems to have great shot at a day two showing at GP Houston in two weeks. Excluding round 4 of last night, this decks mana base has been very solid and consistent.

FNM winner!

Solid performance from the deck at FNM really only giving me fits during my warmup matches (which can be attributed to shuffling up a freshly built deck).

Round 1: Something or Other vs Simic Ulamog Turns (2-1). This is the same first match I played last week. Games …

It's got legs!

Overall the deck feels like its it in control for most matches, though the first 4 turns feels a bit awkward. It definitely needs more unconditional card draw so I'll be making room for 4 Read the Bones. Too many times I got their hands emptied and …

Well, this deck is still in need o tuning but feels much more consistent and plays well as the beat down or the control but does run out of answers right about the time when it should be turning the corner. Brief overview of last night:

Here are a list of things I plan on changing going into the FNM based on grinding this deck on MTGO.

This deck is a blast and quite fun, with your opponent reading each creature dropped and seeing the sudden ""OMG" expression creep over their face.

  • Them: "Can I read it?"
  • Me: "Sure."
  • Them: "So he's a 4/4 right now?"
  • Me: "Yep, …

Played this deck seriously for the first time and... it needs a lot of work still. The breakdown:

  • Match 1: versus a pure control build. Got out-countered 2 games to none. Myth Realized did have its best showing this match, left me feeling good about the rest of the …

Well, you know what they say about plans surviving contact with the enemy...

...somehow it went better than expected. Got the rest of the cards in that I had ordered 3x Goblin Heelcutter plus another Bellstriker and Mardu Scout, so I threw them in and headed off to FNM.
