Can you feel the love in this room or what?

Wow, Chris. You made A LOT of last minute changes to your deck. Personally, I think the deck you had would have made a better choice considering the field. Everyone ran aggro. Control would have been a keen choice.

The deck still looks good, but as you said...you left it to luck.

im not sure he wants a noobs perspective on building a good deck lol....srry jeremy but tha puts u out

[Arashi]

Ahhh...Time to change around the old deck...

I think I might go back to that deck that never saw tourney play, and try to improve it Q. I may just try it out more throughly for a bit. Or I could change it around to be faster....Hmmmm Speed or Control....that is the question. lol.

Aw, Blaine...don't take it to heart. I will comment more indepth in your section(deck) about what I thought about it.

As for Chris and this deck, the deck is still a good build, but I don't think that there is any argument that this deck was aggrocontrol, meaning it tried to do 2 things, which is fine, but of course you may risk some inconsistent draws where you may have to play those loyalty risks from your hand. Chris, you know this now better than ever as we have discussed this idea. Sure you may have gotten unlucky with the roles, but in truth if you weren't under so much worthy opposition you might not have had to risk that many loyalty checks and waited for a better position. Or simply stated, you didn't draw the optimal hands, not to mention that you might have been considered lucky if you did. lol

I think everyone has learned something from this...even me, and I wasn't even there.

[Arashi]

Blaine...please don't think too much of those comments. I definitely do acknowledge you as a great player, and I have no reason not to. While I do say I ran into some bad luck, you did beat me fair and square, and there is no questioning that. Your deck preformed great and so did you. I hope to see the same from you when I play you in the finals of the MEGA faceoff.

[synergy]

that would be cool. i just got mad from peopl saying im lucky. nothings luck guys
