The Guildpact tournament went off with nary a hitch. After slight delay as beverages were purchased and work was done, decks were constructed and duels fought. Sven Vs. Sully turned out to be the excellent paring of the night, with both of their decks twirling around each other in perfect symmetry for match two.
It was midway through this battle that Steve had to bid us farewell and prepare for a night of work. Though he doesn’t play Magic all that often, there were a few times during our battles I felt on the ropes, and it sounded like he did some pretty good work against Sven.
Eventually, Sven pulled ahead in his battle with Sully, and achieved a well deserved victory. He moved on to me while Sully edited the Cow Defender book cover. Sven ripped through my deck with a vengeance the first round, but the next two would end in my favor.
As far as I could tell, a good time was had by all. With some scheduling, it may be possible to do something like this again in the coming weeks. Perhaps not sealed deck, but some crazy group game, team game, or combination of the two with some Alien Hominid tossed in.
that does sound good, the future plan.
since sunday I’ve been trying to put together some decks for normal play and am finding it difficult to do so without purchasing additional cards. Especially when I end up getting rares like this.
i really enjoy the Carl guy from the Ricky Gervais podcast
very funny stuff
glass houses and all that.
