IT'S TIME TO T-T-T-T, T-T-T-T-TRIP REPORT
I went 1-2 lol
First match I 2-0ed some kid with a Prowess deck, he never really got going with anything and remarked that he probably wasn't running enough lands. Which is fair enough.
Second match I got 1-2ed by a teenager running Jeskai Delver. I only won the second game because he never procced his two Delvers and killed himself with his own mana base. Get rekt. Never drew my
Thornweald Archers because RNG
Third match I got 1-2ed by a kid running W/B Exalted. Second game I absolutely merked him with
Arc Lightning, but I really screwed up the third game because I didn't shuffle properly and mulliganed into basically the same hand I'd rejected in the first place. Should've mulliganed again but lessons learnt I guess.
Overall I had fun. I bought myself a Theros booster as a little treat and pulled another
Temple of Abandon so that's cool. I need to sort out my mana base I think (by the way,
Treetop Village is the bomb diggity and I would run two if I didn't have so many other ETBT lands in the first place). As far as promos were concerned you got dibs based on rank, I should've taken
Deathbringer Regent but took
Dictate of the Twin Gods instead because I love making mistakes I guess?? I don't think I'll put it in the deck but it'd be funny if I did and it actually worked.
Overall it was fun and I'd do it again. I didn't actually feel like I was at too much of a disadvantage because I was in the more casual tournament - there was a way more hardcore one going on next door. I probably should get some Lightning Bolts regardless.
