@Nathansteuer1 @CosmosMTG Oh shit just saw this - LFG dude, nicely done!

BA SING SE FOR THE WIN!! Haters in shambles 🤯 Top 8 of pro tour Strixhaven and I’m ready to finish the job tomorrow. Let’s go @CosmosMTG 😎😎😎

@EdgarMTG Sorry to hear that dude, great run regardless

After winning 9 matches in a row from 2-3 to 11-3 I found myself in the same spot I was last year in Vegas, playing a win and in for top 8. And once again history repeated itself and I lost. I am completely gutted

@Smdster I don't know the answer to your question, but I can tell when the exact opposite scenario occured: x.com/lsv/status/119…

What is the most recent pro tour that was won with a common non-token creature involved in an attack? (Or conceded to a common that could probably attack next turn)

@TheHamTV @Trunks132 @BenS_MTG yeah agree with all this, on Arena I'm taking Song but at the PT you definitely should take Offensive

@Trunks132 @lsv @BenS_MTG I'm taking snarl song, 2nd option ajanis response. Don't like rift much as I never have much of a board myself in big blue decks. Competition on arena is too weak to not get into a late game deck. At a PT or anywhere players are of near equal skill...easy practice offensive

One of the better packs p1p1 what do you take? @lsv @BenS_MTG @TheHamTV Would tag siggy but he's testing for PT :P so doubt he'll answer

@Trunks132 @BenS_MTG @TheHamTV As much as I’d enjoy the Snarl Song, you have to take Practiced Offense here (and it’s not close)

@knightofeffect Def - will be up Thursday

@lsv you planning a cube evaluation video for SOS? Seems a lot of exciting cards to test ☺️

@jrs0068 Excellent work

@lsv went with your “force Prismari” plan and was immediately blessed with 2 Tablets and a Resonating Lute. However no Crackle or lots of X spells. But I have won both games so far making 20/20+’s with Fractalize.

@bigo26shen I am now

@lsv June 17-23 on magic online is invasion block draft hope you’re excited!

Pretty easy 7-1 run.

@Trunks132 Ya this is a nice one

@lsv trying to make you proud with this one (it was a super fun one)

@talpostal Absolutely nothing 🦞

@lsv what could go wrong?

I got seven wins via solitaire mode (when you mathemagics them for their deck it looks like when you beat solitaire) - this deck was a treat, and mind twist was great 🧮

@Sierkovitz Certainly I wouldn’t leave steal the show and run behind in the board, but the deck is great either way

@lsv I chickened out - with my SB I am sure you could trim a couple of them easily.

@Sierkovitz Six creatures or so too many but I approve 😂

But the last 🏆 was a masterpiece (@lsv you'd love this one). It is so rarely you have a draft deck you feel can't lose. And it didn't. First picked Lorehold but quickly saw a multicolor control lane opening up. The reviews of day 1 helped me navigate the lane. 10/13

So my adventure with SOS draft started with 5 wins in 5 drafts. Nothing seemed to work. And part of it was bad play - I have a right to a bad day. Part was also bad luck. Losing a game where you cast not 1 but 2 one-sided board wipes is not normal. And yet... 1/13

@mistermetronome Well, I had barely stabilized, you were still doing well, so I certainty never felt like I was exactly winning lol

@lsv Yeah - I had some lucky draws to get me across the finish line!

🏆 Did not think I was going to be a Lorehold Stan this format

@jazzcupboard gotta tag him when snitching @HAUMPH 😒

@lsv Just saw cheon pass a p1p3 lute and felt like snitching

Nice 🏆 with Prismari splashing a couple Pterafractyls to close out the game - I have the feeling this format is going to be good for me

@HeyzeusTCG seems so in the right deck (WB and WR don't want to splash, I don't think)

@lsv You think this is a good splash format? Rare and common dual lands and strong generic cards worth splashing like Pterafractyls?

@jfwong One of my finer moments, to be sure

@lsv that pivot to grabbing a triple blue pip card was truly inspired

Said video - it also contains a pretty great pivot, as I did not start Prismari at all 😅 youtu.be/4XAsmH6AotU?si…
