won 2-1 otd vs Tom Strong on Titan (3-3 now). lost g1 keeping a hand that was good against amulet but not spelunking; won g3 with some back to back teferi'd days (where the first drew a narset for the second); and won g2 in this extremely nice fashion:

the tagline of this deck is "solving all of the structural problems of UW chant by introducing an additional one (arguably two)"

4-0'd a sealed LCQ at Vegas, it's cool that these can qualify for future RCs now too.
deck on the left is my maindeck, deck on the right is my secondary build that i sided into once to clinch g2 and g3 vs a deck with a lot of bombs

here was mine, worst of the three. went 2-2 overall where one of the losses didn't matter, so i did my part o7

i also really dislike how a lot of these just like, completely break the conventions of how magic art direction lines up with the color and types of a card. like, the one on the left here is clearly a red creature and the one on the right is clearly a blue spell, right?
i hate the extra friction.

and honestly not all of these look terrible. like these two i don't really mind! i still don't personally like borderless cards but that also extends to more normal magic cards too, these don't seem particularly worse than normal.
but oh god the huge "clearly you don't own an air fryer" face

Here's my deck, 1-2 overall, but one of the matches I just missed lands and colors and didn't play Magic. It was good but a little lacking in the playables department.

Here's my constructed deck, turns out I am a control player at heart. I think it's got a pretty good spread, similar to Serragon from PT1 this year.

Here was the deck, started white in pack 1 but got two very late wheeled Tapestry Wardens in pack 1 and took only blue and green cards pack 2 (Consult->Mouth->Biomechan). Best Dawnstrike Vanguard deck I've ever seen, won four games with it.

For some reason I think this is the PT I feel the most prepared for ever.
Not the best deck I've registered - that would be Nadu (or by some specific metrics Slogurk) - but I still like my deck a lot, and just feel very prepared.

3-1 arena open draft 2 for $1k
only loss was to a really strong UR deck with, among other things, 2x pinnacle emissary
was surprised i didn't get to play match 5 bc i had read "double elimination" and not "4 matches regardless of record" lol (somehow these are both stated on the event page)
