2hg: werewolves are weaker, put your type removal (naturalize, clinging vines, etc), landwalk=unblockable, games go long, ...

... it sometimes pays to go first even if you don't draw, remember your flashback - you're likely to get there, undying is a trigger

intestering shenanigans: mikaeus the unhallowed + loyal cathar = human - zombie - human - ad nauseam, divine reckoning + hateflayer = sick

opened 3 mythics in eight packs: overseer, mirror-mad, dka dragon. team in front opens 4: 2x past, dka dragon, liliana. pass to side

pool we opened also had inc sav, inc dev, lingering souls, dungeon geists, fiend hunter. team in front had 2 unburial rites. got black mike

other rares we passed were gargoyle and curse of death's hold, so they were playable. rares we didn't play were cage, endless ranks, rw land

oh, and fogs go well in 2hg. know your combat tricks. okay, sleep now, launch party later

"got black mike" <- this sounds like you met someone who looks exactly like you, except he's black

lol

Nods Need to get a black Mike m'self.

so we're slowly inching into the good mythics of the set. too bad i have only one more launch party pod :/

today's pod is notable for being small enough to be an all-dka sealed deck event. no sweeper, no non-creature counters, no white removal

o_o

basically if you have increasing devotion, you're pretty good to go. i went 2-2 with RBg vamps f/ two Nearheath Stalkers, two Captains, ...

... and Fiend of the Shadows, though removal was basically Fires and two Boneflingers, but three Gravepurges helped. the green splash was...

... Wild Hunger, Gravetiller Wurm, Briarpack Alpha and the Huntsman. B deck had featured into a draw, with Gather, Lingering, Doomsayer...

... and Marimar, winning with the Increasing Confusion after stalling. didn't use the Cage (#3, I think). three packs gave Marimar #2
