I'm doing Game Day today. Can't get to FNM because of work so this is the first time I've got to play in a while. 2-0 so far with a MUD deck splashing R for Keranos and Turn/Burn. Only bad thing is I think we only have 13 people here.

Mono Blue Devotion. Yeah. My friend had a handful of decks already made and was like here, good luck. I haven't really decided on a deck I'd want to run myself but the whole working Fridays thing generally makes that a nonissue.

5-1, made top 8 where I lost in an extremely EXTREMELY close game to mono blue in the semifinals. $25 store credit. Go mono white!

Went 2-2 yesterday but we only had 16 people, so with good tiebreakers I made top 8 yesterday as well.

Sadness. On the stack. ;)

I was SO lucky to not play a real control deck the whole day. I probably would've lost and been out of top 8.

Eh. I enjoyed it
Didnt want to be in top 4 because then I'd have to play even longer which i didnt want to do
Tribal centaur douche got his ass handed to him badly by me because he was a douche Friday and a douche today. So i added garruk and just kept dumping and refilling my hand every turn
He .poo. himself when i played domri turn 2 and then garruk turn 3
Lol
Nykthos and devotion is amazing

You can't play domri turn 2 and garruk turn 3. You don't have the mana...
Was probably turn 4 then
forest/mystic
Mountain/domri
Nykthos/caryatid
Activate nyk/garruk
So sorry, turn 2 domri, turn 4 garruk

I would assume some combination of nykthos, burning tree emissaries, and elvish mystics makes it work.
