Emrakul vs Tamiyo

For those wondering, it was something like
Mountain, Rite of Flame, Rite of Flame, Manamorphose, Desperate Ritual, Storm of Memories, make 10 mana, Wrenn's Resolve into gas. Was completely relying on Manamorphose x2 and Wrenn's Resolve to find a pay off.

@bryant-cook.theepicstorm.com I think it was you who said there are Tamiyo decks and decks that ignore Tamiyo, I've decided to live that whole-hearted

Waiting to see what happens with the BnR so I'm running Ruby Storm leagues to try to level my spellslinging skills.
What have I learned?
Always send it turn 1, on the draw, game 2, against a blue player who tapped out for Tamiyo.

First week on Loam Pox. 3-1 at Gamestoria weekly, 3-0-1 at the Hex USW weekly, 5-2 in the Sunday Legacy challenge. 11-3-1 in matches, 25-7 in games. This deck is so fucking great.

Just want to point out that I was playing MTG when MTG announced her resignation. Also, Loam Pox rocks.

A child dressed up for Halloween walks by with his parents (also dressed up). My wife says β€œaw, he’s Spiderman”. I correct her, β€œno, he’s Spider-Punk”. The mom excitedly shouts β€œexactly!”. Thanks Universes Beyond!

Didn’t realize the Friday event was a three star event. If only I had started the main event 5-0…

Just ban Tamiyo, TOR, and Thassa’s Oracle. Legacy will be awesome.

Squandered my bye to start at 1-3, pushed to 5-3, but punted the win in the last round to go 5-4 and not make day 2. Played Mono-Black β€œScam” with a green splash for Once Upon a Time and Collector Ouphe in the sideboard.

I’m pretty pumped about all the NYC references, though. Going to force Bagel and Schmear into all my Saga decks.

My life is basically β€œmaintain mobility and do rotator cuff exercises for stabilization” and somehow I can do pretty heavy weight without pain again

Last year I found out I had a chronic labrum tear leading to degeneration of my shoulder socket from ~20 years of dislocating it during contact sports + powerlifting as though I didn’t have a shoulder injury. It sucks but I worked with a PT who was a powerlifter and and now I can at least lift again
