Notes from event, This is the first time i have teamed this deck with Tyler Reanimator, the pair worked well together in this lower skill event. None of the 3 teams we played had much of a chance vs this comp. Ty played hot all night not needing much if any consultation from me, he is learning the deck ins and out well. I added a 25th land to the mono black deck to get a bit more consistency with the draws and it worked out nicely. The mono black deck played smooth as it ever has this night. Overall Ty and i were just using two very expensive and overwhelming decks that easily got the job done.
Had another instance of wood dawg throwing a fit over misplaying. Beau eventually calmed him down and we moved on. Wood dawg missed the
sheoldred draw life gain trigger which also caused him to miss the trigger that when he gains life his opponents lose life. After playing cards and using planeswalker abilities he wanted to catch the missed
sheoldred triggers. I refused stating that its a missed trigger from his draw step and we are much further along the turn to go back. He was upset that he missed the trigger informing me that "This is why no one wants to play with me" He informed me that he just likes to play casual.
i ignored him to focus on winning the game which i did and then purposefully missed triggers since i knew ty was taking the game over. Once we won i looked at the man and let him know that i missed some triggers purposefully for him. wood dawg and is typical gas lighting language again. Back to him talking about "no one likes to play with me". If that were true why do i have an established league with going on 4 years of weekly events? It would be that players do indeed like to play with me. Lastly on the topic, I play "casual" games all week Is it too much to ask to have 3 or 4 matches a week that are taken seriously? Does every set i play have to be casual? gtfo.
