PTQ Berlin – Epilogue

So, in case you couldn’t tell from the lack of a post from the fourth round, I scrubbed out at 2-2. In round four I lost again to Faeries. I feel my opponent was an inferior Magic player but I got some bad draws and couldn’t pull it out against double Mistbind Clique.

In retrospect I feel that the Justice Toast deck is very solid all-around but also very slow and clunky. If you can stabilize then you’re going to win. However, a fast deck like Faeries can easily blow you out by turn five while you’re still playing lands that come into play tapped.

Will I still play the deck? Probably not. My two match-wins against Doran and Merfolk were not very convincing. I won both matches 2-1 and really struggled with some of the game wins. Those results added to the Faeries beatings mean I will probably throw my Runed Halos back into my Shadowmoor binder and sleeve up something different for tomorrow night.

What will it be? Well I guess that depends on what Pat Chapin wrote about today. Ha ha. I jest. Seriously.

Tonight is draft but I have to do laundry. I was too lazy yesterday. Boo laundry. My next tournament should be Tuesday night Block Constructed over at Neutral Ground. Maybe I won’t net-deck. Stay tuned to find out.
