I agree that the first showdown is much better than the second. Giving frog not many targets for FoN sounds appealing though.
Yes Showdown is pretty good when it shines. I‘m kinda looking for some leaner card advantage cards though.
Thanks!
Tbh he is kinda funny and very nice to me as we know each other for 15 years. But sometimes he gets loud when he is „unlucky“. 🙈
But strangers have a harder time with him.
🥇1st place on the 🇪🇺 Leaderbord!
After playing a lot this year and winning my invite for Antwerpen yesterday, I‘ve also climbed the top of the @unityleaguemtg.bsky.social ladder. 🙏🏻🤩
Let’s see for how long I can defend the title. 🔥

Amazing! Sounds like the perfect card for the grindy midrange matchups! Thought about moving them to the sideboard and getting rid of Showdown?
Congrats! How did the specialists feel to you?
Congrats!
What was your experience with specialist?
Did you know Amulet can copy Heath with Deeps which makes Strands & Flats the white fetches we should run? ✌️😌
Happy to qualify for RCAntwerp but I will continue to grind RCQs to help MTGTeamPeace qualify more players and grind @unityleaguemtg.bsky.social points. ✌️😌✌️
What do you think is the best modern deck to qualify? Drop your hot takes below. ⬇️
#MTGmodern #BorosEnergy #RCQWinner
🧠 List is great for fair decks and prepared for combo but accepts losing to big mana
⛏️ Choose what you want to beat and lose to - Boros can’t beat all 3 at the same time! (midrange vs. combo vs. ramp)
🔥 Magebane Lizard = fine, but High Noon might be the truth.
Top 8 Bracket:
🏁 QF: 2-0 vs Necro
🏁 SF: 2-0 vs UR Prowess
🏁 Finals: 2-0 vs @timobertram.bsky.social on BW Blink
➡️ Dream-crushed Timo again - sorry bro!😬
Swiss Rounds:
🟢 R1: 2-0 vs Green Devotion
🔴 R2: 1-2 vs Affinity
🟢 R3: 2-0 vs Eldrazi Ramp
🟢 R4: 2-0 (team scoop from @tukocr.bsky.social 😘)
🟢 R5: 2-1 Win-And-In vs UW Chant Control
Final Record: 7–1 overall
📈 Swiss: 4–1 into first seed 🥇
💥 Top 8: 3–0 \ 6-0 sweep
Fun fact: MagicDevil666 in last place 😈
MVP of the day: 2x Thraben Charm main
Takeaway: Don’t cut 3rd Parlor 🙈
Deck is tuned for midrange & spell combo, but doesn’t address big mana well ⚠️

Defeated WBg Goodstuff recursion in the quarters, Izzet cycling with two monuments in the semis and UW Affinity in the finals for a total of 6-1-1 on the day. 🏆
Since I‘m already qualified the invite passes down to the finals. Looking forward to RC Bologna and the new RCQ season now! 😌
Was proud of remembering all the instants I was passing to the pod to be able to play around them later. I try to memorize them and write them down after deckbuilding. You can use the note while sideboarding and before the next match. You see 75 % of opened cards. Use that info!
Draft was tough to navigate as nothing seemed to be open and I surfed a long time without receiving promising signals.
Boros isn’t my favorite but in pack 2 it turned out to be open and I was rewarded for locking in. Deck is 1-2 Gunner/ big mounts/vehicles short of greatness but I‘m happy! 🔥
Lucked my way through lost die rolls, better decks and mulligans in the first four rounds to I.D. in the last round with the first seed. 🍀
Happy to be able to draft! 🤩
