I hope you had a good Memorial Day weekend. I had a lovely day of drafting with my TDL boys on Saturday and then I followed it up by hitting the shore for a concert. I made the pro move of staying at my friends pad for a party they were having the next. I thought it would be only a three hour tour but I was wrong. Things happen at parties man. Sometimes dogs run away and you are in a pitch black woods calling out for it. What can I say? Screws fall out everyday, the world’s an imperfect place.
Speaking of imperfect, the draft went pretty terribly for me. I opened a Surrak but never saw any more green cards, so I drafted a BR deck because it was open. It was filled with mostly two drops (and by mostly I mean all) with no removal. Luckily for me Pony Boy Heister and DOMS were able to both go 3-0 so my first win in about three weeks didn’t matter much.
This format seems to have eluded me somewhere along the line. I can’t buy a bucket when it comes to getting a win. Luckily there isn’t too much more of it now that Modern Masters II came out and I can lose a lot of money drafting that.
Andrew Longo has been playing Magic: The Gathering at a mediocre level since 1994. He managed to get lucky on the backs of his teammates to win Grand Prix Providence. When not playing Magic he runs a D&D campaign, plays video games, and reads comics (a real triple threat for the ladies).
