i'm playing tons of rank 35, rank 40 and rank 39s too. I just don't report it, so you're having some confirmation bias on the rank 1s. There's not that many. Anyway I seem to be losing to them the most, lol
Elk, nono I really like the Throne
It does all sorts of fun math for me. I love it, your deck rocks. Also the throne against his Thalia was SO FUNNY. I kept plinking him all the time which really added up with the Servants.
ok so onto Round 6
We start things off with Flakymage's zombie shuffle... i came up against a RBU artifact durdling deck. It was really weird but effective. The biggest decision I had to make was to either ultimate Gideon or make a token. I started by making a token which died, then he put even more pressure and all I had was two wayward servants (with that stupid zombie land and a shambling vent) so I decided to ultimate him. The problem was if I started swinging with Gideon, I THINK he has to attack and kill gideon which buys me an extra turn of life I think. I still don't think it would have been enough. He had TONS of creatures and tons of abilities triggering off artifacts coming into play. I don't think I could have won this one. It didn't help that I did that stupid 1-black mana Supernatural Stamina on a zombie token to try and save it. OOPS. 5-1. I didn't delete this deck yet cuz it's the first one in round six. If all other decks lose, we start the round over but if even one deck wins then...*RIIIIIIIPPPPPPPP*
ok, i'm starving, I'm gonna go get some KFC so i can have some diarrhoea
Ok we're back and Elk is up...had to mull to six but pulled off a good win with four land opener against Radkos. 6-0
Kels deck then fights Izzet mill and wrecks it. I had an early Dawn in my yard so that must have been discouraging . 6-0
We can safely eliminate flakys shuffle now
WWs aggro next...win against mono green ? 6-0
Modulos yolo next to close out this round...really long match against Boros Vehicles but Wharf Infiltrator started things off making horrors and sending Scrounger, haunted dead and Analgram to the yard. Perfect. After that we start rolling with Cryptbreaker and Zcolossus. With some perfect Fatal pushes . A real symphony of horrors for opponent. 6-0
Ok at the end of the sixth round only four decks remain! Trying to get this down to two. I can't believe mine is still in the running. Modulo is often in the top, I'm thrilled to see Elk here and it's nice to see WW making another strong showing
Round Seven
Back to snake drafting, let's start with yolo by Modulo...
