Metal: the Gathering

Anyway, I wrote a song about the BFZ storyline, from Ob Nixilis’s and Ayli’s point of view. Hope you enjoy it, those of you that aren’t afraid of heavy music

Currently super hyped on Kaladesh. Will continue to draft EMN unwillingly.

I am dethroned. 2-1, lost at the finals to monogreen Emrakul (yup, he did it). Gisa and Geralf were really great. Happy to finally see a proper Zombies deck in this format.

Sin Prodder was great as usual, and Stromkirk Condemned was surprisingly good.

This is getting slightly ridiculous. I won another 2hg! This time I played this weird sacrifice-delirium-emerge deck, and my partner played the good old spirits deck. Time to start drafting!

I'm on a roll! Won the 2hg prerelease yesterday as well. As you can see, we went with BR removals and UW flying aggro. The Weaver of Lightning foil is without a doubt one of the prettiest cards I've seen.

Aaand.. I won the Sunday prerelease as well! Some lessons learned: 1. Melding into Chittering Host is very likely to win you the game. 2. Gisela is still good. 3. Unruly Mob + Gavony Unhallowed + Sanitarium Skeleton + an opponent has Insatiable Gorgers = good times. 4. Campaign of Vengeance is good even when you’re behind, if you board is developed enough.

I won the Saturday prerelease! This deck was sick. 5-0, didn’t lose a single game.

My last SOI draft deck (no, the 50 nis bill was not a part of it) I really wanted to try Call the Bloodline, and finally had the chance. Sweet deck, 2-1. The loss should've been a tie; I was too offensive during turns, instead of just trying to survive. Can't wait to try the new format at the prerelease this weekend!

This deck really could have been fun. I had 5 rares and a mythic rare, removal, flyers.. the only thing required was to draw lands. Which I failed to do the entire draft. 0-2, drop (I really never do this, but the circumstances demanded I do). Oh well. Better luck next time.

Some shopping from Rome.

From Sunday's draft. I played the BR deck (0-2, 1 bye. Terrible draws. Pulled Declaration in Stone and a foil Descend Upon the Sinful but didn't play white) and my friend @wissenly had this amazing GW deck (2-1).

This deck was great. I got the Startled Awake on p2p3, and just couldn't pass it. Got some mixed signals, ended up not playing blue (except for the Forgotten Creation. The guy on my right was really pissed about me cutting his bomb mythic though) This was a 3-0, with some interesting wins: doubling Malevolent Whispers with Geistblast and Burn From Within. Also, Sanitarium Skeleton + Indulgent Aristocrat is a very real combo.
