Ixalan FNM 6/Oct - 3-1 result —Oct. 6, 2017

Another 3-1 score this week! This week had me facing different decks with interesting results. Im writing this on the following monday but i'll try to remember as much as i can.

R1: VS UB Pirates 2-1

This was interesting, similar to last week with the Jace + Heart of Kiran combo, the opponent managed to just fly over my dinosaurs, but in that game i was also lacking actual creature cards. Just a bad hand for me it seems. The next two games was much better and i boarded in Heaven / Earth and Forsake the Worldly to remove Kiran, but also drew better. Bad shuffle on my end? I landed a t5 Carnage Tyrant and that was kind of game right there.

R2: VS UW approach 2-1

Havent faced a UW approach deck in paper form yet, this was a suprise. Game one was like a god hand for us, curving out perfectly into a Tyrant, and them just not having a Settle the Wreckage ready. But game 2, went perfect for them , countered my Ripjaw Raptors and did have a Settle the Wreckage ready, also pulled the Approach Win. Game 3 looks like they didnt draw any counters and i overran them.

R3: VS Bolas intro deck? 2-0

I think i got matched down? This guy was new and was running the Bolas Introdeck and well, yeah, it was a very easy win so i took the time to explain why we run certain cards and why some are 'bad' in constructed. Also to see if he was having a good time, because it really sucks when you get obliterated. I wanted them to enjoy FNM and to come back, so we went through and i suggested some cards to help make that deck a bit more consistent in the future.

R4: VS Temur Energy 0-2

Yeesh this is a fast deck. I just, couldnt deal with it. Didnt curve out perfectly so got overrun by this powered up Longtusk Cub. Was gross! I didnt stand a chance and i didnt draw Solemnity in time, it was like 4 turns and you're dead. Need to figure out a better sideboard against this match.


So yeah! Pretty happy with this week, just more sideboard tweaking needed.

If you lose you lose.

3-1

That's how #1 Ramunap Red wins, by squeezing the last bit of damage through.
