I haven't been posting about my Magic results in a long time. My excuse is that I haven't been playing in constructed events, so I don't have decklists that really need recording, but I don't have that excuse today. Today was Game Day for Theros, so I had to have a Standard deck. I've built a couple of casual decks for the new Standard but I haven't played competitively. I probably should have put together a Selesnya list, but I went with Boros because I have 4 Chained to the Rocks and I really want it to be good.
Only 16 people showed up, so I only had to finish top half to win the coveted full-art foil Nighthhowler. I got there, but not by a whole lot. Still, a reasonably good time.
( deck list and details )
I also got to play the Fight the Hydra side event. I left my Hero cards at home, but 3 of us got together and beat it on its hard setting. I decided to buy my own copy, it's kind of fun to play solo and probably slightly more instructive than goldfishing for trying out new decks.
