Blood Moon Elves, Slivers, and Jeskai Combo?!

The winner after four rounds at the top of the standings was none other than SWB.

You know him, you love him.

He actually brought elves to this event.

He brought Infect to the first Peak Legacy event, but he switched it up this time.

He brought elves, but he had some sweet tech on the sideboard.

Instead of the classic chokes, he was splashing a taiga to play a pair of blood moons to go after a bunch of the Deathrite Shaman decks that typically don't play a basic in their list.

They just lean really heavily on Deathrite Shaman.

but as a very good proactive Deathrite Shaman deck yourself in Elves, it was a cool tech, and I saw it on the table.

I had a buy round once, so I saw it on the table being used to good effect in that his opponent had to strip it from him with their Cabal Therapies and prioritize not letting it touch the table.

And then eventually it didn't.

It locked the opponent out, and they had to figure out other ways to cross the finish line, and it wasn't enough.

He was able to take the win.

He won these two sweet as fork Altered Gurmag Anglers.

For the last couple of events, I've been putting up pricing alters from my collection until we get a bigger traction for bigger prizing and bigger, like actual sanctioned, bigger events that are supported with prize entry and stuff like that by the shops.

We're on the trajectory for that.

And it's really great.

The people at Hexaco take good care of us.

So thank you there.

The first meetup that we had, which was a month prior, was won by Grixis Control.

And Death in Texas was actually the most represented deck or archetype at that event.

Although it was in a couple of different flavors.

There were some people who were on classic Thalia builds that you would expect from the era.

And then there was a build that was really cool.

It had Leona and Arbiter and some Mishra's Factories.

taking the place of some of the wastelands so a bit more of an aggressive slant but still gaining all of the equity of your opponent playing around and respecting certain cards that they anticipated so it was cool to see that avenue of uh somebody deck building in that space already of like taking advantage of like known quantities within the format even as the format now is being like looked through and evolved through modern day deck building sensibilities so cool tech there The first place deck list, this was SWB's Elves deck, and this is your classic glimpse of nature, Green Sun's Zenith, Natural Order, Elves from back in the day.
