It would seem that I have a fairly short-term memory when it comes to games and tournaments, so I thought I'd have a go at this one before I forget a lot of the details....
Yesterday was the Team PTQ in Canberra. Our team, MLMGB, decided to have a trip down that way to participate. There and back in one day makes for a hell of a long day, but at least this time I wasn't driving (certainly a first!). Now, our team had some reasonable success last year, winning/splitting in 2 of the 3 team PTQ's we entered (PTQ Sydney and the PTQ at Nationals). We went over to Boston for the PT in September and did fairly average (2-3-1), despite our ability to open Siege Gang Commanders in 2 of the 3 Sealed card pools.
This article will be in two parts. We ended up playing fairly unconventional decks for this format, and what I'd like to do now is post up the cards that we received in the 2 Tournament packs and 4 boosters and let you have a crack at building three decks from these cards. After a few days, I'll post up another article with how we built the decks and how we went in the tournament itself.
So, without further adieu:
And there you have it. There's a reasonable amount of semi-bomb type cards, and we were obviously happy with the Barbed Lightnings and the amount of red removal in general.
So, this is short, but I'll leave it for now. Look for the follow up article in a few days.
