How I miss World of Warcraft.

I am indeed missing my charicters in world of warcraft.... I barely remember how to play the game and i am sure it wont take long for to get back into the swing of things. I remember why i left the game... I just really really regret it now.

So my char's hmmm lets start off with the lovely Priest Evellina...

Evellina is the Bloodelf priest that got me into the PVE things... I was running raids with her and every so often getting in some 3v3 with her... I would like to get the RMP (Rouge, Mage, Priest) comp going in full swing at 8 but more on that later.

then there is Unfit.... MY PVP AWESOMENESS... he is a warlock and yes undead in the sorts... I think he is the most OP'd group pvp guy I mean i steal so many kills because of the DOT's and well it was just unfair. he would have fit well in a DK pally lock comp. again explain will follow.

Then there was my DK who's name is flown out the window I belive it was deathmoo or something... I will update later.

and then my rogue senria... the guy that got me into the game... I think it takes a certain person to play a rogue. And i am just not that person. good farm char though.

And Goodkitty Druid he was and fun to boot. owned my guild with tons of gold in it.

So, I personally love the PVP arena systems. I was working on my warlock to get him to 80 so i can get onto a pvp comp and be in all srsness about it...

The gamer in me is waking

I have been trying to get on world of warcraft lately to see the new goings on and to PVP i really miss the damn game!

From what i hear the raiding is super easy so it shouldnt be hard to get the gear. I am think i am going to try and sign up for the comp they have to qualify for the international and the MLG circut. So we shall see what happens.

so this is right from Daily MTG. For some reason this is just sreaming pirates to me. I dont know why but it could be like the mirage set. I however, think this might be another tribal like thing? But with all the hype on Alara reborn doing something brand new maybe they will keep the idea going like that. But it wouldn't make much R and sence that way either. More to come soon!

First week with Tokes

So my first week with tokes... It got me in the swing back to my 3-2 self. Although, I could have gone 4-1 to make the final but i got a really really bad match up... Lets start with match up one... here we go!

Planeswalkers v. Tokes.

game1: good start got my tide hollow out turn to stick an Ajani eot for a few turns. that was followed by my Medowgrain and then another tidehollow to stick garruk under there. No anthems came out and i didn't see the cousin of Ajaini ven. Both my tidehollows were a bust. he eventually over ran me with garruk.

game 2: pretty much the same... only one tide hollow and a bitter blossom and a glorious. Lost again to a overrun. this time to the help of elspeth....

look back: I spent allot of time with planes walker hate. Giving my opponent allot of time to build and destroy. Should i have just said fuck you planes walkers most certainly. I could have killed my opponent well before he got underway. lesson learned.

Not sure (Angel life link kinda deck.) v. Tokes

game1: Turn to BB. followed by a turn three glorious and turn four spectral turn five and six were a bit of a stale mate and turn 7 attack with three and flip 2 cloud goats from under wind brisk.... " i concede." Never heard that before.

game2: Turn two Hollow nabs me a wrath!!! GO GO HOLLOW! turn three medowgrain. turn four hollow grabs me an elspeth WOW GREAT HOLLOWS! and the only thing that could make it better was the turn five glorious. I hope you have another wrath in there buddy you're going to need it. He knew he was dead next turn and again looked at me and said you go it.

Boatbrew v. Tokes....

Before i even start with this one i just wanna say one things..... I OWNED HIM HARD.

game1: t1 bitter, t2 medowgrain, t3 glorious, t4 ajani game.

game: alright this one was the hope crusher for the kid. he got screwed with a 2 land hand after mulling down to five. what else could you do muli to four and gimme a 2 turn head start? he eventually conceded and left the shop... (i thought that last bit was funny.)

Elves V. Tokes......

Game one and two went very well. I was actually very pissed off for losing this game. I know this kid should have not won but i was getting beat up by a nasty hang over. I know this is a really bad match up for me. but i also know i am a far better player then this kid is. so I know what i did wrong and that was not muli enough. I took hands that had unplayable cards in them like a fool.





That this last weeks match ups. Next week i will be doing my last draft for a while in the shop. I am starting a new job and i don't know when i will be able to get in there for another one.I am going to be getting as many Sundays in as possible. I just hope that the effort and cash and stress i put in to tokes doesn't go to waste. On another note A very good friend and i have started to pool together and team. we are building decks and our hope is to just get invited to a PT soon. we shall see. anyway stop by for more updates and more magic fun.

Magic... Not the silly rabit in the hat kind

So i play a card game... GASP! no not you to!!! well to all those who play magic the gathering. I am with you all... I would like to start with FNM. I love FNM i think its one of the best ways to get some social networking done. you never now what you can do with the right social group. Right now at my local FNM. I have gotten a lot of knowledge and some great trades. So where am i going with this. Well, I have been blogging all over the place and well i lost the attention span on a lot of things.

SO here we are on the topic of a game that has been pretty much all I have done for about 7 months now.... I hope to travel to some PTQ's and while playing getting some good things to blog about. as for now I would like to speak about the FNM and Sunday Standards i have been playing in.


Starting with FNM. So some of you may say what is this FNM you speak of? FNM is Friday night magic. Every Friday at Jiffy Photo and Baseball cards on Rt. 88 ( no he is not paying me to say such a thing i just really like the shop and the guys who run it.) about 18 or 20 people get together to do a a draft and compete for top 4! have i made top 4 SURE! once... about 2 months ago.... on last Friday I went 3-1 and bubbled out to a kid who I person don't think should have been there. And this week i will make a run at it again.

And then there is type 2 Sundays. Type 2 is standard only certain sets aloud. check with your local shop to explain this much more.


So this is pretty basic and well i am not going to keep it this way. I really hope to get some people looking on and some discussion going.
