JANUARY 2020: MODERN NAYA BURN



REGRAN MAJORS
Regran Hobbies
26 January 2020

Match-ups:
Boros Burn 2-1
Dredge 0-2
Grix DS 1-2
UW Control 1-2

Notes:
I committed a missequence during the Grix DS game. I should have casted Skullcrack at the end of his turn then casted both Atara's Command and Lightning Bolt in my turn. 

Also in the same game, despite fetching three times and cantriping off the Relic of Progenitus's ability, unfortunately, I drew into six (or seven) consecutive lands. 

UW control opponent was down to three life points when I also drew into consecutive lands, four. By the time I started drawing bolt spells, it was too late because he already had enough counter spells and Snapcaster Mages for my fire spells. 

Versus Dredge, it was my second turn. I was holding a Skullcrack together with a Lava Spike and a Swiftspear. I thought his chills will not show up on his second turn. So I went swiftspear - spike -swing then pass the turn. But I was wrong. His chills did appear, not just one but two chills. 


I dropped from the roll after absorbing my third defeat of the day.

JANUARY 2020: MONO RED PROWESS MODERN

The main deck is still the same. As for the sideboard, I lessen the number of Bonecrusher Giant by one and turned it into a Skullcrack.

UR Storm 1-2
Naya Burn 2-1
Living End 1-2
Paradoxial Urza Combo 2-1

Notes:
Land problems. There were games that I drew consecutive lands. There were games that I decided to keep a one lander, but after like three turns, I instantly regret keeping it. The reason I kept a one lander is because my hand consisted of one drops or casting cost spells.

I think the highlights of this tournament report are: (i) when the Paradoxial Urza Combo player top decked the Paradoxial card after he presented his deck for cutting from a fetch land action. Unfortunately, he did not draw the cards he needed to sustain his momentum. And (ii) Kiln Fiend went berserk (13/2) by turn three (or four it was).

Thank you for reading! I hope to see you in the upcoming modern and/ or pioneer tournaments!
