Dies to Removal

imopen2

Round 2 opponent didn't show up. Had brimaz in hand too

imopen2

It was certainly considered, but I've only ever used it once so I'm probably undervaluing it. What would you have cut for it? I decided to include the wayfinder, obstinacy, and revoke existence over it since I felt it gave me better game against problem permanents (enchantments) and I wanted another creature for launch the fleet plus value with nemesis of mortals and tethmos. I don't think this deck struggles against big slow creatures, but I would definitely side it in against them.

imopen2

never saw brimaz either

imopen2

so...game 1 I took a (probably) bad line and lost after flooding. he is playing WB with an eidolon of countless battles and a fate 3/4 ping me on draw guy. game 2 I am doing much better when I kill his flier and the eidolon. I have lethal and I use my glare of heresy to push it through. he has a trick, w/e, he's dead next turn. he drops a fucking Elspeth. so he has eidolon and Elspeth...I still have 3-4 outs at this point since he is at 1 and needs to chump every turn. long story short, I get about 5-6 draw phases and never see an out. oh well

imopen2

Solid pool for the appreciation event. A lot of bombs, unfortunately blue paired with white had no creatures, and white paired with red had bad mana+relied too much on speed for wins. I settled on WG with brimaz and a lot of solid creatures. The main weakness is probably to hyper aggressive decks and removal heavy decks

imopen2

I thought that might be an option. I'll have to do that tonight.

imopen2

I am pissed. I just got stalled out with lethal burn in hand because this fucker "THEsneakyhomulculus" (I wonder if it's the one from mtgs?) kept requesting trades during our match and it pops up right over the game window. I know I shouldn't have let my time get so low but I had enough time to win and this bag of cocks was too greedy to play fair. Some people are the worst
That happen to me before from the same guy surprisingly, if you report it you'll get entry fee back.... (which is only a small consultation considering the time it takes to finish events these days).[/

Yea I reported him and requested reimbursement. It's frustrating that this type of angle shooting is both possible, and allowed unpunished. I need to focus more tho. If I hadn't been watching Sherlock while I played I would have smashed that fucker

I could play in the June 8th and 22nd ones almost for sure...maybe the July 13th on but prob not the other two
Once I can confirm my invitational details (after DT) I'll send you my login details - how much of the prize do you want? (your welcomed too the lion share and you can PM me it is if you like).

I still need to find someone for MOCS3-5, I can't ask Z since he earned the QP required for MOCS4-5 and he isn't free for MOCS3 so hopefully Kait logs on and agrees too help .

Idk what the prize support is but I'd be fine with like 33%

imopen2

Sweet. I can't do all of them but I could do a couple at least

imopen2

i could play in it for you

imopen2

Too many things to list. Are you almost done with eso? Come back to magic

imopen2

So I only got to 11 qps this season despite making the finals of about 60% of the 8-4s I did and getting my rating back up to 1800. Hopefully ill be able to play more this season. I also want to play in the JiN limited champs

imopen2

Also, where is zem? Did he give up on modo?

imopen2

And I haven't been able to play in the last few days

hoping to get a draft in tonight and maybe a couple tomorrow. I need to win a lot to make it to the 15 I need since my activity has been so low

imopen2

Yea ill play. I have basically all the cards so why not. Lost game 3

imopen2

Drafted basically the same deck again tonight. In the finals atm.

imopen2

It was game 1 x_x

imopen2

Drafted an awesome BG deck yesterday with all the terrible self-mill creatures, a font of return, the spider that can regrowth something, the card the gets an enchantment+a creature back, a couple death touch dudes, bile blight, and 3 asphixiate.

I went 3-0 with my only game loss being in the finals to a countermand that decked me when I had the game all but won (I only had 4 cards left but I knew 1 was a nessian asp, 1 was an asphixiate, and 1 was the return an enchantment+creature from grave and any of those were enough to win)

imopen2

Central standard time. Brisbane and Melbourne appear to be 15 hours ahead of me...I play a lot of modo

imopen2

I use a ton of bots but I don't usually sell packs. I just put them back into drafting. I'm up to 14 Jou and 18 Theros tho...been nearly infinite the last 3-4 weeks now. Qps are still escaping me tho

imopen2

I never have audio on.

I've made the finals of 2 of the last 3 full block 8-4s but cant win

imopen2

But you only need one of each

imopen2

I think I'm holding mine long term...I want to play vintage when it comes to modo (as long as the prices are reasonable) and I will hopefully be able to trade the promo version for a regular one+extra tix if I end up going in

imopen2

I already sold it

imopen2

Did my first jou bng ths draft today. First picked a manaconfluence for value and the took 3 satyr hoplites in a row. Ended up 15 land RW aggro with about 8 one drops, and after destroying my first 2 opponents, I flooded both games in the finals and didn't see a one drop in either game. Oh well, still got the mana confluence and a courser for value and 4 packs as well

imopen2

5-2-1 drop.

the draw was frustrating and by the end i was pretty drained. in person magic is hard after so much modo. overall i felt like i did pretty well considering it was my first GP and having never before played the deck. my buddy is 8-1 with rug twin. if i had goyfs i would have played that. scavenging ooze is also just nuts right now in modern

imopen2

4-0-1

The draw is frustrating

imopen2

3-0 so far

imopen2

I managed to pull twin together but I only got to play about 10 games with it so this is most likely going to be a short-lived GP

imopen2

What about burn? It has been doing well online. I'm just struggling to justify spending that much more for a probable scrub out when a tier 1/2 deck is free...

imopen2

It's GP Minneapolis

imopen2

So the people that were supposed to bring the other half of my twin list brought the wrong deckbox x_x

My options:
Buy the $150 worth of cards I'm missing and play UR twin
Borrow a full affinity list
Borrow a full burn list
Build something random?

imopen2

I used the beta last night fr the spotlight and it didn't seem as bad as last time I used it. I still prefer v3 but I guess I'm less worried than I was

imopen2

only had time for 1 release event tonight. went white (because why would you ever go anything else) and opened a dictate of heliod so I went 4-0

imopen2

I didn't get to play today cause of the downtime

I prob won't play actually until sunday cause of GP Minneapolis (assuming I don't day 2)

imopen2

My limited rating is almost back to 1800 and I haven't had to buy product in nearly 2 weeks

I'm actually sad that JiN is coming out because I'm finally getting really good at THS THS BNG

imopen2

3-1'd two sealed dailies today

imopen2

idk, I could have gone either way. I destroyed my round 1 opp with EoCB and then flooded both games in round 2
