My First...

Magic: The Gathering - Friday Night Magic

I Just came home from Alabang Town Center to play MTG-FNM (Friday Night Magic). Man it was my first time to play FNM and it was quite ok. There are about 30 players to compete for the 7 booster packs from Lorwyn. On the first round, my opponent has an Angelfire deck and i play my Sliver deck. I was unlucky because i have only one land on my first draw so i had to play mulligan. Unfortunately, I lost that first round. My opponent is a good player. Then on the second round, I played against a Discarder deck. And again, I lost that round.

My third round was challenging because i have to deal with a Sliver deck also. Damn it was a mirror match. Our first game lasted about 5 mins. I won that match. On the second match, I lost because he had control of the game. On the last match, we both gave our best to just to win the round but unfortunately for us, our time limit has ended. So we had a draw on the 3rd round.

4th round has come, I had to deal against a White/Green creature control deck. I won our 1st match because I played aggro poison. On the second match, he had some creature removals just to control the board and he can play creatures and attacked me. So I lost. On our last match, again, he gained control of the board because he played a card that creatures w/o flying cannot attack. I have no flying creatures and also him. So my strategy is to burn him with my burn spells. But still, my burn spells cannot deal that much damage because of his life gaining spells. I lost because i have nothing to draw from my library. Damn.

Anyway, it was my first time to join a tournament like that. It's fun to play Magic: The Gathering because you'll be able to meet new players and gain some strategy from them. I'll try to join again if I have time.
