5-3 at the Riftbound Vancouver thing. Losses were all avoidable. Fun day though. So it goes.

Finished 9-7 to qualify for the next 2. A lot of ups and downs this tournament, but I learned a lot preparing with Team TCGPlayer and I'm glad to see so many friends in top 8.

Narrowly escaped with a 1-2 with a deck I was happy with, but the pod was strong. 6-5 going into constructed.

3-2 with Prowess to 5-3. Unusually happy with how I played today, though there were at least a couple close calls I think I could have gone the other way on.

you don't realize how exhausted you are until it's 10pm and you're struggling to keep it together for long enough to put your deck together

My friend needs a Friday PTQ entry, if anyone has one or has lead on one.

I'm surprised there aren't more cosmetic type surgeries for practical inconveniences, like to be less congested or have better hearing (like lasik)

you know you're the target demographic for a store or restaurant when the music is literally all bangers (Pavement into The National, in this case)

Lorwyn Eclipsed was my favorite Magic set in a long time. The flavor and art were so refreshing and nostalgic, and there were so many interesting cards for constructed at the perfect power level. Happy to get back to reality with the Ninja Turtles spoilers.

10-5-1 to requalify. 8-2 constructed, 2-3-1 limited. Punted both constructed losses, feels like a missed opportunity but I'm happy to win the last one.

1-2 to 6-4-1. I liked my deck, though it needed more removal and my draws didn't line up. Maybe I just don't understand the format tho. Back to constructed.
