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 Plankfoil.

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.
