A Fortunate Pairing
October 19, 2008So I had a really interesting roundabout way of getting to this video.
Originally BDM wanted me to do a “build” from the MTGO deck editor, which ended up being Building the Red Deck (probably not surprising)… But I have always thought it would be useful to actually show readers how decks work instead of just using written words.
That ended up being this one.
The thing was… I mean you can run into anything in the Tournament Practice room, but the first pairing out was almost comical: Mono-Blue deck exhaustion against Vexing Shusher and Demigod of Revenge. But you know what? A match against Kithkin wouldn’t have been a good illustration of how the Red Deck works. A really fortunate pairing actually allowed me to show the various capabilities of the Red Deck, even if it was not thanks to a Tier One opponent.
I think this one turned out pretty well (although I hate dead air and there is a fair amount in this one).
I hope you enjoy it.
LOVE
MIKE
