Sunday? Sunday! SUNDAY! Cube draft

Well, fellow gentlebloggers, today I participated in my first cube draft. For those that don’t know, a cube draft consists of a pre-selected number of cards that then get drafted in a drafting-type manner. The cards in our cube were split into boosters then drafted as per a regular draft (“open” the first pack, take [ READ MORE ]

Last week’s installment of the prologue is here: http://gentlemanccg.wordpress.com/2012/01/22/dungeons-and-dragons-prologue-2/ Dare we enter the temple? I had never before seen such a place. Evil permeated around the entire place but we were certain that whatever it was we were looking for…this “artifact” was here. We stepped over the threshold and before we had time to think [ READ MORE ]

The bard followed the dwarf, moving toward the rock and then disappearing into it with the help of  mysterious hand. My turn was next. Slowly I moved towards the wall, not knowing what to expect. With all of the bravery I could muster, and that is a considerable ammount, I placed my hand by the [ READ MORE ]

Wednesday Deck List: WoW Paladin Murlocs

Greetings gentleblogers, Tonight I thought i’d share the deck I took to the WoW Realm qualifiers at the weekend. Now, admittedly I came 12th, out of 17, but I still think the deck is solid.

Aurion led us from the shi’s encampment through the forest to the home of the bloodstone. We noticed, however, that the shi moved with the forest not against it, as if the trees were allowing them to pass. That’s alright for some, but I prefer by trees to be stationary. Prefereably a long way off. [ READ MORE ]

Weekend in Review: FNM, WoW Realms and Sunday Standard

A lot happened this past weekend, starting with FNM on Friday night. I decided to play mono-white humans again, as I’m having a lot of fun with this deck. This week, though, was quite quiet as people were preparing for the PTQ in Manchester. FNM did, however, re-affirm something I’ve known for a while about [ READ MORE ]

Greetings fellow travelers! Are you here to learn about the great Renown and what happened to our party when we met up with him? Excellent. Pull up a seat, I’m no bard but I shall try my best. Renown stood before us. He bade us welcome to his abode and offered us refreshment. I, of course, [ READ MORE ]

Aurion, the a gold dragon who walks the world as a man, was standing in front of us, maskerading as the human captain of the shi patrol. He did not recognise us when he saw us, but why would he? He wouldn’t meet us for several millennia. I leaned in and spoke in a low [ READ MORE ]
