3-0 with Levia in Armory Usurp draft. Sadly, another pod of 6. Haven't drafted with a full 8-person pod yet. At least this time it was a 2/2/2 hero split and not a 3/2/1. #fabtcg

Six-person Usurp draft pod last night, three Malice. Five-person pod today, three Malice. My locals might have a bit of a preference. #fabtcg

Coyote vs. Acme was put together better and had a more cohesive plot than most of the big budget movies I've seen since COVID. A fun movie for a day off!

Final Usurp prerelease: forced Viscerai on perhaps a mediocre pool because I've played all the other heroes. Went 1-3, felt like I had more bad banishes than good. Definitely should have sided out sinchants in mirror matches. 😅

I'm loving the trend in #fabtcg of having more heroes in the art of cards they can use. Makes them feel a little more special.

Prerelease #2 today told me I had to play Baalghor. Did pretty good, all games were close Viscerai, W - they took a lot of damage to set things up Malice, L - I might have done better if I ignored zombies Viscerai, L - I needed to threaten a little more damage Viscerai, W - barely #fabtcg

Usurp prerelease #1, went Malice Mirror, L - got out-zombied Levia, W - zombie horde presented too many targets Mirror, W - out-zombied them Mirror reminds me of Dromai mirrors, where first to play dragons loses.

4-0 with Levia at IAR prerelease. Being able to midrange all the Viscerai was nice and Rumbling of i'Arathael is a hell of a card. #fabtcg

I hate emailing our corporate people. If I type out a full paragraph so everything is crystal clear, they only read half of it. If I make it short but ask two questions, they only answer one.

Sage Armory recap on Boost Dash Dori QP, W - Blade Beckoners are great in this match Enigma, W - they weren't on full fatigue and I had threatening blues to bypass the Essence of Body turn Dromai, W - I landed 2 damage while setting up going first, was crucial to outracing Rake the Embers

Armory recap on Boost Puffin Slippy, W - new player so of course I highroll Cindra, L - missed a point of damage in the mid game, joked about hoping it doesn't matter, got them down to 1 before I was Flicked to death Vynnset, L - this match is theirs to lose and they didn't #fabtcg

Long weekends with no plans make me wonky. I've had almost no desire to do anything but play basic Microsoft video games and my meal schedule is all kinds of messed up.

#fabtcg Armory recap on Boost Puffin. R1 Cindra, L - I had to go first and had one dud draw from double Cranking late in the game, still close R2 Boltyn, L - didn't account for 7 extra damage from a Beacon of Victory and died from 10 life R3 bye

Two weird dreams about coworkers last night. First was finally getting reciprocation from an old crush and the other involved accidentally stealing a debit card from someone who lives on the other side of the world.

26 players at the CC Armory tonight! Boost Puffin mostly flailed against fatigue Olympia, lost a close one to Fang, and narrowly defeated Pirate Puffin. #fabtcg

What about me makes me look like I want to hear about and deal with inconsequential nonsense? There's too much real bullshit going on in the world and most of it is caused by that senile Shitler!

Sage Armory on Pirate Puffin again. R1 Flavo, L - I put up a good fight R2 bye, W R3 Gravy, W - an equally mediocre deck, which made it a lot of fun like SEA limited R4 Dromai, L - I got close but Rake the Embers was too much #fabtcg

010

fillyrow.bsky.social @fillyrow.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

Played Puffin at #fabtcg Sage Armory. R1 Hala, L - MPW is solid support which is more than we can say for Puffin R2 Oscilio2, W - it's great having access to Oasis and Arcane Polarity because I'm not Boosting R3 Dori QP, L - same as Hala R4 Fai, L - close loss to brand new player

Made top 8, going 3-2 with Dash at today's Skirmish. Beat Dromai, beat Flavo, autoloss to Enigma, beat Briar, lost to Benji. Lost to Olympia in t8. All non-Enigma games were close and I played my best all season. #fabtcg

fillyrow.bsky.social @fillyrow.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

1-3 with Dash at today's Skirmish. Beat Puffin, autoloss to Enigma, lost to Briar bullshit, and Flavo. Made a dumb mistake against Flavo at the end that took away my chance to win. Why do I have to like fair decks that don't get enough support? #fabtcg

My 30 minute meeting that should have taken 10 minutes took an hour. Not sure if it was a language barrier or the guy just not paying attention but repeating myself that much drives me nuts.

Drank a beer on company time yesterday. It was their event and they provided so it must be okay. One was enough for me though.

2-3 at Skirmish #1 with Dash. Two of those losses might have been wins if I had stuck with my plan on critical turns, would have at least given me a turn or two to find an out. Briar L double Lightning Press Rhinar W Kassai W Dromai L Blaze L

4-4 at the Showdown with Dash. Most games were close and I played better than I did all weekend, until absolutely wasting one of the two real turns I had against the eventual winner. #fabtcg

Turns out you don't need to practice draft for Pro Tour when you go 0-3 drop. Didn't play my best in the first two but probably wouldn't have won if I did. Played very well in the last and still came up a little short. #fabtcg

fillyrow.bsky.social @fillyrow.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

That's enough risking heat stroke simply by being outside. Time to settle on my 80 for #fabtcg Pro Tour.

fillyrow.bsky.social @fillyrow.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

#fabtcg Pro Tour won't be easy, especially with only a dozen games on Puffin since Omens and a single draft. Let's see if I can beat my previous Pro Tour best and win three games!
