Bombed out at Standard Showdown. Again. —March 22, 2018
I get paired first against the same player EVERY week.
It's starting to get old.
His decks are Aggro + Control, and very difficult to beat.
I got not one Fatal Push or Harsh Scrutiny in hand against him, in either game.
Only a couple of Walk the Plank.
Thrashed 0-2
Next up I played ... the OTHER player I am paired against every week.
Grixis Control
I drew only lands in our first game. Seven. Fucking. Lands. In. A. Row.
In our second game he had a bad draw and I pulled ahead of him ... until I got stuck on five lands, and he got the upper hand.
No. Fucking. Lands.
So sick of this bullshit.
Lost 0-2
Last game I played a Boros Vehicle deck that was no challenge for mine.
Got every card that I needed in hand at just tha right time.
Beat him 2-0 but the victory was hollow as it was only his third time playing at tournament level.
Received a Showdown pack from a lucky draw they do at the end of the night.
Came 10th out of 12 players.
So tired of this fuckery.
Too depressed to even do a proper match report, or format anything.
Sorry for the swearing. Really fucking sorry.
☹
Jace's Defeat worked well.
I guess that's something.
