Enjoyed the cast, sorry for the outcome. Ron’s promo at the end is at a different speed than the restof the cast though.

I feel for you on the NFL level. I root for the Rams and am hoping that they clean out thier front office as well to move the team in a positive direction again.

Yea, so my draft deck sucked hardcore… i was passed no removal throughout the draft, and basically was all in on my 2 first pick o rings. The only other removal I had was vithian stinger. Anyway I basically played my way to finals only off of skill, and then ran up agaisnt him in the finals, he had 4 tidehollow strix, 3 sanctum gargoyles, sharuum, a couple executioners capsules etc…

I got screwed pretty badly on a gifts of the gargantuan in game 2 of the finals, but regardless, his deck was strictly better, I was even able to somehow distract him from winning multiple turns where he had the in on board, and I still lost.

Sealed Deck	2+ players Each player needs 1 Tournament pack and 3 booster packs Players simply open their tournament packs and the cards from three additional booster packs and build a deck from the cards they opened. Guidelines require a minimum deck size of 40 cards and allow players to add as many basic lands (Plains, Islands, Swamps, Mountains, and Forests) to their card pools as they like.

Booster Draft	4-8 players Each player needs 3 booster packs At the start of a Booster Draft, each player opens a booster pack and picks the card he or she wants from it. (You can't see the cards that the other players draft.) Then each player passes the rest of the pack to his or her left. You pick up the pack that was passed to you, select a card, and pass the rest to your left. This process continues until all the cards have been drafted. Next, each player opens a second pack, but this time, you pass the pack to your right. After all those cards are drafted, you open the third pack and pass to the left again. Once all the packs have been drafted, players build decks from the cards they selected, adding as many basic lands (Plains, Islands, Swamps, Mountains, and Forests) to their decks as they like. Each deck must have at least 40 cards.

Tribal Wars	One-third of every deck must be of a single creature type (e.g. "Merfolk" or "Beast") Each deck must contain at least 60 cards, and players may build decks using Standard, Extended, Legacy, or Vintage deckbuilding rules. You can use creatures of other creature types, but they do not count towards the "1/3 of single creature type" rule.

Singleton	aka "Highlander" No two cards in a player's deck can share a name unless they're basic lands (Plains, Islands, Swamps, Mountains, and Forests). Players can use Standard, Extended, Legacy, or Vintage deckbuilding rules.
