I played RUG Twin , Dickmann's list at a my group gauntlet testing. I came in 2nd out of 16. Report will be up if interested.

My play group wants a gauntlet so bad... 😓
We have a proxied one but it would be nice to actually have the lists to play with.

It really is amazing to have if we ever want to take the lists to a GP or GPT. Frankly, there is no difference with the lists if proxied or not.

Yeah, currently we have Pod, (Kiki and Melira) UWR, Tron and Zoo and Elves (Combo and Warrior Brew) built, but it would be nice to actually have a real Living End, DelverBear/DelverMancer, Jund and probably a Blue Moon (I have hardly any experience playing against that deck) to also have on hand. I hate the fact that I'm missing Richmond this weekend, I've been grinding my list so hard =/.

So getting ready for GP Minneapolis this Saturday.  I go play a friendly 4 round tourney. When I say friendly I mean 30 ppl getting ready for Saturday.

Round 1 against u/g/b infect? Win 2-1
Game 1 we both mull to five. I see nothing the first three turns and he hits the nuts.
Game 2 he tries a quick attack for 7 poison but a p2e gives him a land and no creature. I combo soon after with Kiki and exarch.
Game three he floods with no gas to attach his stuff. I best down with combo available anytime.

Round 2 b/w/u mill loss 1-2
Game 1 I fetch turn 1 and 2 into 2 archive traps. Lose soon after.
Game 2 I combo out turn for staring at 2 hedron crabs.
Game three he hits all the mill and mills me the turn before I would have comboed. Dumb glimpse.

Round 3 2-0 win aggro loam
Game 1 he mulls to 5 and I get a relic going quick. Use beatdown plan with townships and exalted. New modern player so didn't have me on pod yet.
Game 2 I combo turn 5. He says after, "so if I see a wall of roots. I should think pod."

Round 4 win 2-1 u/r storm twin

Game 1 turn before I go off he tries to go but whiffs ending with 2 blue cards and 10 red mana to play them.
Game 2 he gets pedtermite/ splinter twin on and I lose.
Seeing that linvala comes back in, spellskite in. Game three turn 2 spellskite followed by podded into cannonist shuts  him down long enough for me to pull it out.

Side note saw tron go 1-3 proceeded by the guy tearing it apart and staring at all the cards. Thought of Taysby and I have no idea what you look like. Tron may be awesome, as long as it stays down in the 0-2 bracket I'm ok with it.

What deck did you use.

What deck did you use.

Kiki pod

[Sparkle Ninja]

Played goblins. Beat two living end decks, and a melira pod. Lost too my own hive mind deck (lent it to a friend) and Naya Zoo. 3-2
Prize pack contained a {Glacial Fortress}

[Kaworu, the Fifth Child]

How did you beat Mpod?

[Sparkle Ninja]

Failed to do very much. The guy got really bad draws. He won game two then got bad draws again game three

[Kaworu, the Fifth Child]

Ok. Good job!

[Sparkle Ninja]

Ok. Good job!

Thank you!

Modern tourney tonight, 1st gets a box so ill post my results/matches tonight or tmrw wish me luck! Piloting either affinity or UWr midrange.

[Kaworu, the Fifth Child]

So. Went to my LGS. Nobody came. Waited for an hour, and then the owner informed me everyone was at some big state tournament, sigh. So would have crushed. I see myself at 3-1, losing to DJ's American Control deck, again. (And crushing Tron, again )

[Sparkle Ninja]

Second. Took hive mind. Lost when someone playing land destruction blew up my main mana source (utopia sprawl on a forest)

[imthelolrus]

I placed 4th piloting UWr midrange, the field included: living end, robots, UR Aggro, fish, scape shift, white weenie, & RW Aggro.

Round 1 (RW Aggro):  I won 2-0
Match1 he ran a bunch of haste guys, this was basically a standard deck with paths and helix's thrown in. He actually got me down to 2 life but my geist and colonnade got there.
Match 2: he mulled to 6 and only drew into 1 red source while I bashed with {colonnade} and the {batterskull} I boarded in.

Round2 (Robots): I lost 0-2
I kept an average hand. He played conservatively with ravager and i was unable to control the board when he spell pierced my {cryptic command}.

Match2: I mulled to four, so... Yeah.

Round 3 (Living End): I won 2-0
Match 1: kept a terrible hand vs the deck based on poor scouting. Although triple {lightning bolt} is never that bad lol. (I had thought he was Naya zoo or something I saw a stomping ground, temple garden and a copperline, assumed the scape shift player angered away his guys.) I burned him to death lol. Thanks {Snapcaster Mage}

Match 2: leaked his outburst, played geist early and then he had another outburst {cryptic commanded} . He had used some sideboard card to gain life. Made my clock a little slower but geist with two cryptic commands is always decent

[Kaworu, the Fifth Child]

RDW, 2-2. Played against Melira Pod, American Control (lost those two), and won against 8Rack and Mill.
