the card is easily busted. three power across two bodies for 2 mana that also accelerates mana production is way too much for standard imo. we will have to wait and see if spell snare being printed is enough to contain it or if cub needs to go on the banlist.

it looks like a bunch of folks got their announcement cards already so my guess is that they didn't send you the email 😭

this is also my first RC i haven't day 2'd, so that streak is snapped, but that's fine. we out here vibing and enjoying the grind, which is what it's about. on to the rcq season coming up and the portland RC! really excited for standard!

mulling it over, can't complain too much, just bad beats this weekend. could i have played a different archetype, sure, but i had utmost confidence in my pick and I still do. sometimes magic doesn't go your way. ggs to my opponents!

r6: izzet affinity (again 😭) ❌❌

r5: goryo's mirror - 👻👻

i haven't lost a mirror in the past 3 months and the streak continues! deck knowledge and spicy one of's helped us get over the line.

2-3, 4 more wins!

round 2: boros energy - ❌👻👻

game 1 i was relying on WST to draw cards, but opp had a 1 lander so my draw engine was non existent. g2 and g3 we interacted early and resolved a goryo into scoops 😌

1-1

round 1: simic ritual - ❌❌

never drew the goryo or an atraxa in the same game, and they just have a really good tempo plan. no big deal, matchup is hard. we go next!

0-1

just play rdw, less absurdity and higher consistency. plus i believe it's up your alley 😉
