A month of recap(s)

 I've been slacking, mostly because of crap play/results. I had one good night in the past month? Seriously.

Lets, what decks have I played at the weekly so far?

Mono-Red Dragon Stompy (aka Tokyo drift)

Mono-Black Depths

G-Post

    Guess which one actually produced a winning record for me? Oh right, Post. Good god.

I went through my texts with my buddy Andy, because thats how I recall what happened. Post was the only reasonable results, going 2-0-1. Splitting last round because I was super tired.
Mono-red gave me all the wrong sides of the deck. Couldn't draw my way out of a wet paper bag to be honest. It was awful. 0-2 drop bad. No game wins bad.

Mono-black helped me beat R/U Aggro (aka Delver) but then just fall on it's sword vs D&T and ANT of all things. Admittedly ANT is a HORRIBLE match-up. 

Sigh.

    Moving forward, I am going to start testing g-post for The Legacy Pit open for October. Gotta figure out if this is the deck I need to be running or not. I need to get reps in basically. I've been running into_plays' "standard" build for a bit. But I am VERY curious to run this version for testing at least. I like the SB plan a bit better as it can deal with Magus of the Moon more. (which seems to be growing in popularity) 

One of the reasons I want to run this deck? Being able to borrow a Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale. A card that I would never reasonably own.

Acquisitions:

I finally pulled the trigger and shipped my 2019 and 2020 Commander sets off to Card Kingdom for credit. And what I did I pick up for that?

1. City of Traitors, EX
2. Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger, EX
3. Sokenzan, Crucible of Defiance (Borderless) x2
4. Boseiju,Who Endures
5. Magda, Brazen Outlaw x8
   

I did something I never thought I would do- buy a 4th copy of City of Traitors. (posted here about the first three for $360) While I do think Ulamog is due for a reprint, I wanted to at least have a legal copy for G-Post if I decided to run in a local tournament and not the weekly where proxies are all good. I also wanted a second copy of Boseiju for either a different deck or the secondary build of G-post I might run. Good to get now instead of later. 

The Magda is nothing more than a longer term hold. I do think she is interesting an unique in her abilities. If I am able to double my money- huzzah. Gonna take an EDH thing to make her good though. Ha.

Also picked up a Commander pre-release kit for the fun. No other reason. As I say in the video, I like pre-releases, and I like draft... but the idea of a pre-release draft, NO thank you.
Also, thanks again to Gritty Goblin Games for being awesome. 

There you go- me opening a pre-release kit and 2 set boosters. Still no clue what was good other than Tasha. LOL. (just reviewed the cards, and HOLY CRAP I got housed.)
