Realized I had never played Necropotence in the 1996 format so finally took it for a spin. 3-1 in group stage to lose the mirrior in the T4. A fun deck to play but definitely difficult to play perfectly. Plus i got to finish someone off with a Aeolipile 😄

The league held a 1-day event going back to Inv/Ody and I played what was basically Brian Kibler's 'Red Zone 2k' Glory was MVP all day not for trying to blank removal but to just make all my creatures unblockable! Went 3-0 and wish i played this instead of that terrible Lich deck 😄

Trying to get back into the T2 leagues with a shaky 2-3 on wake. I had some cool plays but the deck is tough to play. Casting Decree of Justice is super fun tho 😄 And I wished for the Hunting Pack more than once

Week 7 "B/G Cemetery v2"
Ordered some Stronghold Assassins to play this deck proper and I think it is pretty solid. Most likely needs Duress main but for Spice Paradise I think Therapy is more fun! 8th week is next and I am unsure if I like my deck but I'm out of time to tune it any more

Week 6 "Junk Gamekeeper"
Milling myself with Mulch and Gamekeeper to 'draw' cards was the idea I was going with. I found myself with Roar of the Wurms stuck in my hand and always drawing the Akroma but it happens. Prob more discard outlets needed but for a first draft it wasn't that bad

Week 5 "G/B Cemetery"
Adding green for more landcyclers and Wall of Blossoms. I tried the Buried Alive as a tutor with Oversold and it worked well in my game but I think Living Wish would be better.

I wanted to try Coffin Puppets really bad but I never drew them in any of my games. Gladiator is prob way better but not as spicy haha. Cycling lands is interesting I definiley need more black sources I might even play Polluted Mire since there are so many colorless lands

Week 3 & 4 "Black Ponza"
A 1:1 adaptation of Ponza Oath. 8 Land D spells, ZI for Oath, Phyrexian Arena for Sylvan Library, Sickening Dreams for Pyroclasm and Stalking Stones tries to do its best Treetop Village impression. I won both rounds but the 3 cmc slot is very heavy might need 30 lands 😅

Week 2 "Buriedalive.dec"
Another deck from last league with a few changes! Swapped to Duress from Therapy, pulled out a few cards I felt weren't in a good spot and gave it another go. I feel like that the deck might have a few too many plans and not enough removal. Next time I've got it for sure!
