One of those days

Legacy has been off the table due to family conflicts since Thanksgiving. Just not well positioned to play those nights for now. It hurts a bit because I think I started getting in to a good place with decks and understanding the local meta.  Oh fudge.

I went the past two Fridays to draft Guilds. First time I drafted, I did HORRIBLY. Like not even a rare in my deck bad. No wait, correction, I did have one rare- Nacromoeba. (i.e. Not the rare of choice) I had never drafted Guilds to be honest. Then I went back this past Friday. It was a small crowd, like 4 players showed.

*screeching brakes sound*

First, let me say this. I had a really good Friday. Had some amazing stuff happen at work. Perfect timing for a draft night. Got to the shop early to jam some stupid legacy decks. Hung out, and did things.
Ok, that all said, I even figured out my lane in the road in terms of guild to draft- Dimir. Honestly, with my extra cards I might have been able to play a whole second deck of Boros. It was a good call. It also turns out, if you land playable rares- you have a fighting chance. I wound up in Dimir. I had like 4 Darkblade Agents. lol.
My MVPs were, without a doubt, Connive//Concoct, and Quasiduplicate. Man sakes alive. Just crushed hopes and dreams. I did all the things I could hope to do. Countering spells, stealing stuff, copying stuff, and recycling cards. Oh, it was uberfabulous. I even managed to beat the best player at FNM draft. I thought I had screwed the pooch with Quasiduplicate in hand and blocked with my Nightveil Predator.

It was just a good day all around. Only won 3 packs, but I will take it! Winning felt good that night, and all day.

Hoping to land some cheaper Ultimate Masters card I need while the prices are depressed. Some have already rebounded, but not for cards I need like All Is Dust. (already ticking back up over $5)
