Day 2 #EternalWeekend didn’t go as good as Day 1. 3-3 to Finish 9-5. 87th for min cash. After not playing Legacy for almost a year, I still love Izzet Delver. Very fun event @PastimesEvents!
10th Place with Stiflenought in the Premodern Spectacular at #EternalWeekend. Had to use some of my prize tix to get a Final Fantasy Collector Booster.
I made Top 8 of Shoe City Showdown with Stiflenought in Premodern. I played a different version than last time. I wrote about my deck building process and recap every round.

I play Stiflenought in a Premodern league. The plan is clear. Just jam, baby!

My two favorite decks in Premodern are Sligh and Dreadnought. The secret is that they really are the same deck.

I decided to jam Dreadnought again at the @DuressCrew Premodern Autumn Regional Tournament. I thought I’d play against Red Decks. I played against Black Decks. Full tournament report and deck decisions included.

If psoriasaurus says it’s good, then it must be true. I take his Sligh list from a Premodern Challenge Top 4 and run it through a league!

I won’t be at the NE #premodern regional because I’ll be walking to support research for type 1 diabetes for my son! For every $10, you get a chance to win

All our usual setup - stream, raffle for Worcester County Food Bank, and a side event for those who drop and want to run it back.
Building decks like it’s 2010! I iterated on a deck from Eternal Weekend 16 years ago to play in Classic Legacy. Here is my process for the changes I made. Tournament report included!

Iron is the Gold Standard. @ironlungsmtg provided the list. I played the league. Come check out some Premodern gameplay with Iron Burn!

I think Overload is the best Sideboard Card in Premodern Sligh. You should always play 4. I shared why I feel this way and which matchups the card really shines in.

I took a break from Premodern and fired off a Vintage Cube League. Discover the lost art of reading at the Library of Alexandria with me!

I played Mono Red Goblins at the New England Premodern Monthly Tournament for September. I wrote a report for my third place finish.

They say that if you can’t beat them, join them. In this week’s video I take Mono Red Goblins through a Premodern league!
