Whatcha playing for Game Day?

I'm going to roll out my tried and trusty Cast a Shadow.

Trying to get as much value out of that deck before it rotates.

What will you be rocking?

This is my build of choice. It seems really well positioned against the field amd especially good against Ramunap Red

As a joke really I'm planning on running Temur Slither Blade pseudo-infect, basically Slither Blade and Bloodlust Inciter and Thorned Moloch with a bunch of buff spells, should be interesting to see if I can sneak a win in :p

I don't even think game day is going to end up firing at either of the two events where I live sadly.

I would be playing my energy deck if it was. I have been playing a in some form actually since the release of Kaladesh.

Well I got completely toasted.

0-6

Some of that was due to some INSANELY bad draws on Game 2.

Both times I was waiting for a land that never dropped.

Oh well. So few of us showed up that we each got the Top 8 promo and 2 Abrades.

Played Game Day again today and switched to my Worthy Minotaurs deck.

I thought about the other day and realised that Cast a Shadow was not the right choice in the current fast meta.

I could only stay for one match, as I had other commitments, but I beat
Snek Deck 2-1

We only got six people at both of our Game Days. Piss poor showing. Standard is still in a bit of trouble, at the moment.

I was happy that I got a play set of Abrades, which will pimp out my Minotaur deck.

Day two I'm planning on running constrictor energy went 4-4 yesterday with a bad deck in a weird meta so I guess I'll see how it goes today.

I went 0-2 drop, my shop was filled with so much aggro and I managed to pair up against none of them.

Went 1-2 with Constrictor,

2-1 versus Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons snakes

0-2 versus Zombies

1-2 versus Minotaurs

The meta the previous day had been all combo and more controlling decks, today that shifted to agro and I suffered having adapted my sideboard to control. Oh well.

I played Pummeler and got 1st place out of 12. The finials was against Ramunap red, and I lost the first game and then won game 2 and 3

Oloro_Magic Snek Deck doesn't stack up well against Minotaurs.

Argy it really didn't, I got lucky game two but the deck just ran over me game one and game three I constantly felt like I was on the defensive.
