Legacy week #10

I've made it out to 10 weeks of Legacy since the start of my journey to regular play. I missed the past two weeks due to family stuff and Guilds pre-releases.

For this week, I went with a fairly stock DnT list. This time around, I ran 3 Crusaders to help fight through some of the Grixis and Death Shadow match-ups.

Admission time- *sigh* This is a hard one for me, and don't laugh too hard. Double strike is two separate damages. Which I just wasn't aware of, well, sort of, but not really. This is VERY important to equipment based attacks like Jitte, SoFI, and even SoWP. If a Crusader has one of those things on them, they trigger each time they hit- once for First Strike, and once for regular damage. *double face palm* I honestly didn't notice that.

Ok, back to regular Magic and pretending I know what I am doing.


Round 1 vs DnT

Ah the mirror.

Game 1 I lost eventually due to a SoFI on a Flickerwisp. It was a toss up for a while, but he drew more Stoneforges than me.

Game 2  A bit of a gaff on his part allowed me to swing through. He had a Brightling deployed, and I got rid of his Mom after he got greedy and used her for attack damage. He totally missed that he had a land up to return Brightling, and I won the race from there.

Game 3  It was an ugly affair. Board stall for a while. He got rid of my SoWP, I got rid of his Jitte. I kept dropping threats. He kept pulling lands and that made all the difference.



Round 2 vs Grixis Control

Game 1 He overproduced as Grixis does, and overwhelmed me. I had slim windows, and just couldn't get there.

Game 2 My deck decided lands and Vials were not worth showing up. Opening hand had 2 lands, and nothing for about 5 more turns. I got crushed.



Round 3 vs Maverick

We intentionally drew to make sure we both got paid instead of one of us getting nothing.

We played a few games to see how it would go, and I took some notes from TJ because he plays a CRAP ton of magic and is awesome.
I believe we split the games we played, and the games I won I had multiple things in my opener- multiple Moms, multiple Wastelands.


For next week, I hope to have my Hallowed Spiritkeeper in my deck to help with the control matchups. Likely to drop the Wingmare. Also going to put a Gideon in SB, drop one of the Cataclysm.

Great tournament writeup on DnT at duel for duals.
