It’s late, but not TOO late. It’s still Monday and therefore still time to put up a short blog post.
I went to a Star Wars Destiny tournament yesterday. There were 27 of us playing. I brought three decks with me. One I thought might have some potential, one that was more quirky and the other that was just there. Ultimately, I decided that rather than go for the unlikely goal of trying to win out, I’d go the quirky route. My deck teamed up Ezra, Yoda and Jar Jar Binks. It’s a mill deck, designed to empty the opponent’s deck quickly. I actually won one round, which was a lot better than I expected. One round I got destroyed. The other rounds were surprisingly competitive. I got my opponents down to just the cards in hand. The problem with the deck is that it didn’t have enough hand removal to get rid of those cards in time. Still, I was pleased with the performance.
In keeping with Star Wars news, last Wednesday was the day that I set to play the role-playing game. The day didn’t start out well with two people writing that they couldn’t make it. One told me that he would be late if he could make it at all. Nobody showed up at the scheduled time so I wrote to him to tell him not to make his way out as it wasn’t going to happen. Disappointing to be sure. I plan to give it one more try. There was potential there. I really want to make it work, but I also don’t want to keep showing up for nothing.
I got word that the Big Trouble In Little China game I ordered last July should be coming in soon. The long wait is finally over. I look forward to giving it a try.
That’s all for this week. Have a good seven and we’ll do this all again next Monday. Carja V.
