Philly Legacy Series EW 2019 Qualifier —Feb. 23, 2019

I got a chance to play in the Philly Legacy Series EW 2019 Qualifier (Unfortunately, I had to leave after 3 rounds) but I was able to post a 2-1** record in my first ever Legacy experience. It was a blast! I went up against Burn Round 1 which was relatively easy to run over. Hand disruption kept card:eidolon the great revel off the board allowing me to make a pain free 20/20 in plenty of time to end the match in under 15 minutes.

Round 2 was more of the same against Elves. Game one was a fast win with Marit Lage hitting for 20 on T3. Game 2 should have gone better but a severe misplay on my end cost me the game and eventually the match in Game 3. On turn 3 of game 2, I had Marsh Casualties and Flaying Tendrils in hand against a Dryad Arbor, Elvish Visionary and another 1/1. I didn't cast either in favor of some BS play I had in my head about copying Dryad Arbor with card:Thespian stage. They comboed off fetching a Craterhoof Behemoth and pumping everything for +5/+5. Game 3 they stuck Pithing Needle on Thespian's Stage and I couldn't find an answer for it in time. A Learning experience for sure.

Round 3 was again Elves. I had T2 Dark Depths + Vampire Hexmage in Game 1 and Game 3. The second time they were able to Assassin's Trophy the Dark Depths in response to the trigger but a Crop Rotation brought out a second Dark Depths and Thespian's Stage put on the pressure. They took a turn digging for answers but came up short. 20/20 for the win.
