Matchups
Preface: At the moment, these are mostly unlisted videos. Scheduled videos are set to private due to how YouTube’s scheduled publishing feature works.
Vs Gar Yellow 1-0
I just focused on controlling the board.
Vs Cad Tarkintown 0-1
I forgot about Bazine Netal, and I got punished when I passed and they sniped my turn 1 play. It didn’t help that I had no good turn 2 play, so I was on the backfoot the whole game.
We played another game afterwards.
Vs SOR Luke Data Vault 1-0
I drew into my late game cards right on time. Opponent didn’t see any SOR Luke Skywalkers.
Vs Sabine ECL (Alyssa) 0-1
We pre-sided.
I lost control of the ground arena.
Vs Sabine ECL 1-0
We pre-sided.
My opponent didn’t draw that well, as their turn 2 play was a Just For A Cause I believe In.
Conclusion
The Gar Yellow deck intrigued me enough that I made a deck and I play tested it with Alyssa. I’m a little disappointed in myself of the mirror match as I didn’t play around Bazine Netal.
We also had a “pot luck” after the weekly, but it was mostly contributed by two others, whom brought pork, rice, and lettuce (and the bowls and utensils), and Alyssa who brought macarons.
