Final score: 1-3, Leontes wins. Good games!

As he pointed out afterward, when he used the first game to scout me out, he learned that he didn’t need to throw much. It feels like a cop-out to say this, but today was pretty exhausting IRL, so I wasn’t playing the way I usually do… Apparently I throw a lot less and attack a lot more when I’m tired. :sweat:

Still, I’m happy taking a game off him considering that! I’ll definitely be keeping all his advice in mind if I have to go against a grappler in the future. Though it’s a bit suspicious that there’s almost no other Midori players active in the community… Maybe I should main G. Panda so that no one can get good at my matchups too. :wink:

There are a few, but I have either gobbled them up or they are masking their dragon form like a WoW raid boss

Fluffiness 3-2 @CKR

:setsuki::psfist::pschip::zane: CKR gold bursts and powers up for MA turn 3, brings me to 51 life, and then I play as if he didn’t have MA, which pays off since he never plays it.
:setsuki::pschip::psfist::zane: CKR gets an MA in hand by turn 3 again, and this time I ram a Q into it. Not the best trade ever.
:troq::pschip::psfist::zane: CKR MAs my BU. Not much else to say here.

Down 2-1 vs a Zane, I recall the wise words of my hero before he betrayed us all and joined the high tier heels, and pick the objectively most broken character in the game.

:rook::psfist::pschip::zane: CKR doesn’t get MA this game, and I just pressure him out with a lot of throws as he tries to block for MA.
:rook::psfist::pschip::geiger: I get a huge lifelead early by only throwing before CKR puts up the TD hp. I eat AA before popping the first TD with sped up Q undercutting his J. I’m at 44 HP, but vs a 13 card Geiger with known AA in hand, that’s no comfort as he puts up the second TD. My hand is checkmated before I topdeck a 5, and he rams AA into it for lethal.

GGs CKR.

@mysticjuicer, hopefully this has shown you the light, and you will stop betraying all us low tier specialists.

@Shax confirmed for top tier evil villain. Corrupting the impressionable when they’re so, so young.

Mystic Deadman vs. @BD_Corro

:chibigwen::psfist::pschip::chibisetsuki:
:chibigwen::psfist::pschip::chibisetsuki: 1 Joker, 3Qs, and 2 Aces in 4 turns for Setsuki. What are Gwen draws anyway?
:chibigwen::psfist::pschip::chibisetsuki:

Final Score
MD 3-0 BD_Corro

The games were close, despite the sweep. Game 1 we traded the life lead more times than a professional athlete gets traded. Game 2 he gets phenomenal draws, but I find a way to bring it back. Game 3 played out more like Game 1.

GGs d00d, and good luck to you in the rest of your season.

Catch Game 4 on one of our replays, if you want to see someone who’s never played Menelker in a tourney before fish for several turns for the perfect DSD spot!

I like this Menelker cat, I think. ggs, always a good time!

Speak nothing of Game 1, where twice both players played the exact same Q card (hearts, then diamonds) for a clash twice.

They also teched 8 throws, but they were spade/club, so slightly less hype.
