Made a quick sheet to track my Directs

So far 184 Runs for 120 Boxes

1104000 Gems Paid = 5520$

Looks like I am making roughly 20/30$ an hour in Directs with a ~65% chance to win a box per entry

Rough estimate since I am unsure how look bullets take + gem rebates and others

TDM Direct 2

13 Runs

45-20 (69.23%)

New system felt fine. Feels better when you are losing cause rewards lesser finishes.

Here is the worst deck I trophied with

The best deck I went 1-2 with

And a rare not 5c deck, a Temur deck that trophied.

TDM Arena Direct

I was able to top the 17lands Leaderboard for the Trophy Rate Metric

62-21 - 74.7%

15 Runs - 8 Trophies

When the mana is good in sealed the formats can be very exciting as every pool has great power. I played 5c nearly everytime.

Questioning the wisdom of Day2 Cutoffs at PTs.

I'd imagine the reasoning is assuming matches not live for top8 are irrelevant.

But in a system where every win matters, there is a lot of tension with that assumption.

I wrote some thoughts in the PT Discord.
