Forgot to mention that the Replenish in the middle was my prize. 😅

This is my second top 4 finish in the last 2 weekends, with the previous one being at BAH (Big Apple Highlander) Humbug. I played GW Good Cards and had an awesome time! See deck photo below. I hope to carry this momentum into the start of the new @nyc-mtg.com Pauper season which starts today!

This past Saturday I competed in the Backstage Brawl #premodern tournament and finished Top 4, my best PM tournament finish ever! I played Mono U Nought. GGs to everyone I played!

I played in the Sacred Torch Showdown this past weekend and finished 5-2 for 10th with RG Oath Ponza. It's my best ever result at a larger tournament and I'm very happy about my performance! Still made a misplay here and there, but love feeling my play improve.

Using my first "w/e you call a Tweet on here" to show the deck I played at Thursday's BK Premodern Meetup, Suicidal Broccoli! Went 3-1 (My best result at since I started going to them!) and had a blast playing it.
