  • Kaladesh Remastered draft really doesn’t like me; I thought this deck was pretty good, but it was yet another 0-3. D: At least I didn’t waste gems this time. #mtg #magicarena #mtgkld

  • Streaming some more Kaladesh Remastered draft (ep 2) https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #mtgkld

    Unfortunately, internet was too poor again tonight for streaming :(

    Ok, I went ahead and did two drafts which was a terrible idea because I did very poorly both times. (Didn’t bother getting a screenshot of the second result, they were the same!) Sigh, this format is tough. Hopefully I figure it out by next time.

  • Kaladesh Remastered draft ep 1 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #mtgkld

    Sadly, internet wasn’t too good so I just cut the stream short. Too bad, so sad

    Draft didn’t feel super good, but I managed to break even in the games. No video because no stream. (In hindsight I could have just recorded locally!) Maybe I’ll try streaming a draft again early next week.

  • Decided to try a Kaladesh Remastered sealed before diving into draft. Didn’t do particularly well, but at least I got a feel of what the Kaladesh limited format is like (again) #mtg #magicarena #mtgkld

  • All Saints Day Zendikar Rising draft (final episode) https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #mtgznr

    So I think the draft itself was fine, but spoiler: the outcome was terrible! Bonus: A couple of Eternal matches!

  • I think I’ll go ahead and turn these 4 mythic WCs from the Uro ban, turn them into Omnaths, then jam them into my Adventures deck. If Omnath gets the axe later, I get the WCs back! #mtg #magicarena

  • Zendikar Rising draft! ep1 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #mtgzkn

    So I managed to play one game (and lost) before server-related issues. Will continue later, but here’s my draft deck

    I managed to play 2 drafts during this episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2rcdcJSloo

    Unfortunately (spoiler!) I performed very poorly D: Have to figure out what I’m doing wrong (aside from the obvious misplays), feel free to give feedback!

    2nd draft deck (BG):

  • While checking to see if Zendikar was already on #magicarena, I found that I still had an unfinished Historic Event with Jeskai Fires. I get to play with banned cards!

    oops, went down for maintenance! Hopefully this is still around when it comes back up (and that I dont get the third loss!)

    We’re back! I decided to wrap this up before drafting Zendikar. When my opponents pause with Fires or Teferi on the stack, I can only assume they are dumbfounded lol

    Got my 3rd loss to Rakdos Arcanist, which gives you an idea of how dumb that deck is. Maybe it’s safe to bring Teferi and Fires back now? Lol. Anyway, on to Zendikar!

  • Hit mythic on #magicarena (relatively) early this month, running BO1 Jund Sacrifice in Historic. This means I can focus on Limited when Zendikar rolls in this week!

  • M21 draft Episode 3 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #m21 #twitch

    Had to do 3 drafts just to jump from Gold 1 to Platinum lol. 1 draft was terrible, 2 were mediocre. 3rd draft was a WG deck (no screenshot here). At least I finally got to try some archetypes other than WB!
