Working on that mana probability problem, btw. It's complex to calculate stacking probabilities like that.

Well done Jedi_Knight
Isn't this the 2nd article you were featured in?
p.s. farming 45 is to allow for 3x prelims which may = 300-400+ (depending on how patience you are at selling LED).

@MDU
I just sell my btg boosters I won, and If needed 1 theros booster (I know lost a lot of value but not unloading all means still sit around 200)
Need to play some more this weekend, not time before and I lost lot last time i played. Thats why I thought about changing decks as burn is quite bad matchup for rb devo. Might try last rb agro list.

If they're on my list RB aggro is good for Burn too.

Knocked out in round 2 game 3 of an 8man twice this morning. Haven't lost any money, but the rage, the rage...

Maybe you will get paired with me when I try to fatten my wallet and earn some QPs this evening. That should get you over that hill. If I even make it to round 2, that is.

Ya I've gotten to round 2 twice today, played the b/w humans matchup both times, both times had whip + ghost daddy. The feels. Oh the feels.

I lost the first 8 man to a BW Midrange deck. Had him at 5 with a Skullcrack and a Searing Blood in hand. He top-decked Ghost Daddy, I cracked him to 2. Drew a second Searing Blood, flipped the table.
Daggers!
Died most dishonorably in the second 8man to a timely Grey Merchant.

Isn't that the worst. COULDNT PLAY A BARON FOR ME TO DOUBLE SB COULD YA! I've yelled that. At my screen. So many times.

Just hopped in another 8 man (staying home sick has its advantages some times). R1 beat a jenky b/u heroic hidden stringsy duskmantle seer deck. He slaughtered me g1 because I didn't expect him to main deck mizzium skin? But then knew to play around it from there on and didn't have an issue.

My MTGO day started rather badly; I lost 0-2 to MonoB Control in my first SE and 0-2 in the Mirror in my second. Undeterred I pressed on and beat MonoU 2-0 in my 3rd before losing to RWDevo 0-2 in the second round

Variance had played a part but I was not a happy LaZer at this point
Fortunately I remembered some wise words offered to me by Zem in similar circumstances a couple of days ago - "Don't get disheartened, play slowly, review your games, ask questions on the Forum, you'll get better" so I decided to record some games, commentate and get some feedback from you all
So without further ado here you go Feedback on my lines of play are MOST welcome

I've already spotted some errors reviewing them

Kait give me 4 more rupees. Up to 25. Quite good for 2 8 mans played (cant play daily todays as whole day at university and need to wake up on 6 tommorow ...
Btw tried and might found new love - I grinded 40 qps last season with GW agro in block constructed, I mastered this deck. Now it is only better. Beat 4 mono black (3 control 1 agro), 1 UW control and RW burn.
Still need to refine deck, will post it in agressive decks for comments.

Is anyone else's clan messed up on MTGO? Shows me not in it and when I look at the clan list it shows only one person in the clan, lol.

I haven't tried it today, but it was like that after I updated my client yesterday (I'll try repairing it)

it displays fine on the beta for me. I also wasn't able to target my opponent with spells or abilities on the old client so I switched to the beta again...

yea it is. my computer is 6 years old and I'm running on parallels so it's somewhat slow/buggy

can you add a poll that only certain people can vote for? make each of the clan members' names an option, give each of us unlimited votes, and we vote for ourself when we get a qp, so we have a running tally?
that might be impossible tho even with admin powers. not sure
