Mull to Five: Brainstorming

A pair of 2-1-0s, placing 4th in one and 3rd in the other.

Now that's what I call a successful tournament run! But that's all icing on top of a very sweet cake however, because of the myriad of lessons I have learned last Wednesday (November 28, 2012), both from the tournament itself and from some brainstorming and discussions I had with an experienced player (and two-time first round opponent, and with whom I lost to both times, haha). Tossing ideas around with someone more experienced is a really good exercise; you might end up revisiting ideas you could have dismissed sometime ago on account of being too weak or too clunky. Like I almost always do, though, I might be getting too ahead of myself. I'm really excited to talk about my tournament exploits this week, all the more so because I wasn't able to play all that much last week, so let's begin.

Mull to Five: Deck Tech - Jund Midrange Part 2

This is part 2 of my Jund Midrange Deck tech article. When I started writing this, I didn't think it would go overboard and be extremely long, so long in fact that it might have been unreadable and boring. I decided to just split the article in two, which also gives me an excuse not to write an article today (kidding). Anyways, I hope that decision would allow you to have fun reading my article as much as I had fun writing it. Enjoy!

Mull to Five Extras

I've been a huge fan of Gavin Verhey, I've been using his deck construction techniques in my own deck-building pursuits. Today he wrote an article about how to build a sideboard, and I would just like to share it with my readers.

Mull to Five: Deck Tech - Jund Midrange Part 1

This is part 1 of my Jund Midrange Deck tech article. When I started writing this, I didn't think it would go overboard and be extremely long, so long in fact that it might have been unreadable and boring. I decided to just split the article in two, which also gives me an excuse not to write an article on Friday (kidding). Pardon if it doesn't feel like it was meant to be written in two parts, and I hope you would go back on Friday and read  the rest of the article.

Anyways, I hope that decision would allow you to have fun reading my article as much as I had fun writing it. Enjoy!


So I've decided on a new name. Mull to Five.

Friday Nights 2: A new challenger has arrived!

2-2

Worse than last week, but better over all standings. Last week, as I had found out through the nifty Planeswalker Points website, I was 7th over all, today I was 6th. Not bad, certainly improving, although I did use a different deck today, I would explain in a moment why. I think it was also because the tourney was smaller, and I did get less Planeswalker Points, but again, I'd take it! Getting there, I guess.

Friday Nights 1: It begins

2-1-1

Not bad for my first solo FNM. Not exactly a good showing, but I'd take it!

The Life and Times vol. 10: Crossing Over Space and Time PART TWO

Whew, so... Part 2. Yeah, I'm still having a blast playing this game, so let's talk about it a bit more shall we?

ALSO, MORE REASON TO OGLE- I MEAN, POST

PICTURES OF LILI!

The Life and Times vol. 9: Crossing over Space and Time

Or crossing over Street Fighter and Tekken, whichever S and T you feel like crossing over. I prefer the latter.
