You're touchin' the little toe of my Bootheel too, y'know. As long as yer touchin' some part of the Midwest, ya oughta be able to apply to be an honorary Midwesterner. At least, I think that's how it works.

…. Really? o_ o

Huh. Honestly, I figured you were th’ one turnin’ Southern since ya entered th’ SEC. But if that’s how it works maybe I’ll consider it if ‘Tucky goes Midwestern. *feels a little better having the option* ouo

Tales From TNMO

Today's champ isn't this one

(though he did a fair amount of work)

Today's champ is this one:

Faith's shield has been awesome for me in today's TNMO ISD Block Constructed events.  I've used it to save a Fiend Hunter (holding a Vorapede) from Blasphemous Act, I've used it to keep my spirit tokens alive against my opponent's spirit tokens, and I've used it to nullify removal from Brimstone Volley to Tragic Slip to Sever the Bloodline.

So good!

(It also seems crazy, all these card names... like writing in another language)

I've been working on a green/white/red ISD Block deck, but it's just not good enough yet.  I've tried zombies, Burning Vengeance, a terrible control-ish deck that didn't work at all, white/green tokens, green/red aggro (one with Runechanter's Pike that I think has potential!), and vampires.  I've tried all sorts of decks and I resisted Boros for a long time (still do), but so far it's been the best deck I've found.  Here's my Boros ISD Block Constructed build I've been running:

Creature

4x Champion of the Parish

4x Doomed Traveler

2x Cloistered Youth

3x Fiend Hunter

4x Hellrider

2x Mikaeus, the Lunarch

Instant

1x Faith's Shield

4x Midnight Haunting

4x Brimstone Volley

1x Rally the Peasants

Sorcery

4x Gather the Townsfolk

3x Devil's Play

Land

4x Clifftop Retreat

8x Mountain

12x Plains

Sideboard:

1x Blasphemous Act

1x Faith's Shield

1x Rally the Peasants

1x Fiend Hunter

4x Stromkirk Noble

1x Cloistered Youth

2x Geistflame

1x Grafdigger's Cage

1x Purify the Grave

2x Ray of Revelation

Whew!  I've never written out a deck list before, that takes a lot of work.

I won my first TNMO event of the day, going 3-0 against a Boros deck, a Boros deck, and a red/green aggro deck.  All close games, nearly all one, in some way, on the back of Faith's Shield.

I went 2-1 in my second TNMO event of the day (hey, the rounds go quick, I can get lots of work done in between them), losing round one to Boros and winning against black zombies and a green/black deck running undying creatures, Garruk, and Grim Backwoods (I don't see this deck much, seems like a high price to pay to draw a card).

It was good to get some practice in.  I like that TNMO is low-stakes, and it's pretty awesome that this month's promo is actually playable - and even worth some tix.  Good times, good times... but tomorrow is FNM! 

Better times.  Better times.

TNMO is Awesome

There are so many acronyms in Magic!

I love FNM (Friday Night Magic), and since getting into MTGO (Magic Online), I've really loved playing in TNMO (Thursday Night Magic).

Too many acronyms!

But, alas, I am too lazy to type out the whole phrase.

The format for TNMO changes each week.  You can find the schedule here, on the official Wizards site.

When it's draft or sealed, it's nix tix, meaning you don't need to spend any tix to enter the event (you just need the packs).  When it's constructed, you need a deck and 2 tix to enter.

Only 2 tix!  Such a good deal!  You always get a promo for entering, and if you win, you also get a foil version of that promo!  And because it's always night somewhere, you can play TNMO in the morning, the afternoon, or at night!

Tomorrow's TNMO format is ISD Block Constructed, so get out your red/white Hellrider decks and play!
