McDonalds is fantastic for all of five seconds.

I think you could put those french fries in a cannon and use them as splinter shot for pirates. I hate McD.'s.

I know I like to dedicate sideboard slots to a deck that is a massive 0.000001% of the meta.
This is my favorite version of Zem.
Feels good to roll a 4.

BB games, Speech, Scholarships, School internet network going down so i can't do my scholarships. Yelling matches with my parents, and to top it all off, my phone got fucking stolen (i got it back thank god, but holy crap what a fucking fiasco)

I know most of that shit is just high school problems so it's not important to anyone but i need to get this shit out somewhere.

MoW is definitely one of the reasons I went Rakdos. Ultimate Price works.
And if I go midrange next season, hero's downfall will too.

It's honestly really decreased in popularity in my meta, thank god. Only a few people I can think of run it.

Thanks man! Sorry how it ended up - gonna send you a PM.

DPaine and I were in a GPT/$1k yesterday. I top 8'd with PyroDragons. 6 rounds, and I went 4-0 then ID'd the last 2 rounds. Nobody in the top 8 wanted to play it out, and I didn't care one way or the other, so we all split the $1,000 for $125 each. The few people who wanted the GP Montreal byes played for them.

I was seeded #3 going into top 8. #2 was on mono blue (my opponent round 5, but we ID'd). If the top 3 seeds all won the quarterfinals, mono-blue and I would have been paired in the semis, and I have a bad matchup against that deck. The prize pool was $400
and byes for 1st, $200 for 2nd, $100 each for 3rd and 4th, and $50 for 5-8. Entry fee was $25. So it's likely I made $25 from splitting rather than playing to the semis and losing to mono-blue and ending up at 3rd or 4th place.

@Kait - this was the first thing larger than an FNM or gameday or pre-release that I've top-8'd. My FNM's don't split to top 8 anyway, and pay out according to record.
