Won 1, lost 3.

Feel like I played the best I could but I probably didn't build the best deck my pool could produce. I also think the pool was a little weak. The Rares were bomb-y and playable but 2-drops were virtually nowhere to be seen.

My take-away is that this is a format where it's more important to curve out than to have have big plays. There are quite a few cheap cards that are good early and late which devalues the bigger spells despite it not being a superfast format.

I'm looking forward to release draft on Friday where I will have greater control over my deck.
