Unlocking the Vault #15: A Classic Celebration
Posted on January 3, 2012 by enderfall
Your decision-making could use some work. Watching round 1 – Brainstorming EOT when you have a fetchland in hand is usually wrong. Not playing a delver to hold up mental misstep (??) when you are a delver deck is just straight up incorrect.
Hi CSeraph, could you specifically point out when in Round 1 you are referring to when you say that I held up Delver for a misstep? I don’t see any instance where I held up a Delver for a Misstep, except that I did not run my Delver out on turn 1 in game 1 in the face of a potential counter war or an Oath deck, as I didn’t know what deck my opponent was playing at the time. No sense in fighting over a Delver in a meta running wild with Oath of Druids. Nothing is worse than losing simply because you played a one-mana dork and your opponent opens with land, lotus petal, Oath and counter back-up. I may have missed something, but I’m just curious. Thanks.
hoooooly f*** round 4 was funny; what a deck
and so gorgeous how everything was so good against you. The knight actually stops your whole team.
Grizzly bears are terrifying in this format!
it actually made me mad watching this. especially against the affinity deck when you made the slight complaint about not drawing what you needed..dont endstep a brainstorm especially if your not planning on using mana on your turn. you brainstorm on your turn to get 1 card deeper and you had a fetch so you woulda got to shuffle away 2 bad cards and see 4 cards that turn. what you did by not cracking fetchlands and redrawing cards that werent the answer cost you the affinity match.
Brad, Thanks for your note. I guess I’m the only person that has ever thought to themselves, gee if I only had one card… but anyway, if you look just before the videos, I note some instances where I had made a mistake (and not noted it in the video itself). This was something that was suggested a couple weeks back and if you can think of a better way to present this, I’m open to ideas. Sorry that you missed them the first time around.
Cockhorse, yes, round 4 was strange indeed.
