Well, we go back to back with another trophy in Vintage Cube leagues. Izzet Artifacts being the usual powerhouse in the format. Faced two mirrors, and Workshop hard carried many games. Kappa broko, but everyone knows.
Played a Vintage Cube league, got a sweet trophy with this list. Steel-Cutter in VC too? Yeah, seems so. The deck is basically Hammer Time in disguise, and I was able to one shot from 20 to 0 in a single combat. Some blue fillers for Force of Will.
Got the double in Vintage Cube Preview, and ez cute (broken) Scythe avatar. Drafts were pretty much self explanatory.
Trophied another Elimination Draft in Vintage Cube with Izzet Wheels! Leovold is soon to become available in the Cube pool again, so it's time to conduct a rehearsal 馃懡 Had fun Twistering left and right in impossible boardstates, being able to one shot many times in a single turn
Got there in Elimination Draft with Esper Raffine! Never been a huge fan of the card in Vintage Cube, and I don't think the draft was particularly good either, but I basically won every time i resolved it. Nice win against Recall/Ring/SAttack in the semi with 2 cards left.
Here we go again! Second trophy of the day in Vintage Cube Elimination Draft, another not particularly impressive deck but Mardu Reanimator always gets to find a way. Fast mana plus Eolingas mvp of the league, mass removal always good, Talons doing some neat tricks with Grave.
And... it's two in a row! Second trophy of the evening in Vintage Cube Elimination Draft. This time I had a very mid draft, ended up playing this Dimir pile that had to go through so many steps to win games. But Dimir cards still good.
Not sure if i have ever drafted this hot in my life. Shipped another Elimination Draft in Vintage Cube with this UG Pile, i'd say i ran hot, but the deck opens no bad hands and has no bad draws. Untapping with protected Nadu into Cat + Billy is something else.
Trophied with Bant Nadu in Vintage Cube Elimination Draft. What should I say, Nadu is a great pick in the format, likely best combo deck along with Doomsday piles. Flash is pretty mid here, but it gives you time to build into Nadu stuff.
Pretty sick trophy with this Sultai Nadu pile. Got to smash a few combo together, but ultimately went for Nadu-Boots into protected Chain of Smog the whole time. Frog and Overlord carry the non-combo games, and Doomsday is there to recycle Chain in need.
Cheeky small trophy with Doomsday pile in Vintage Cube, waiting for the Modern bans. Didn't cast Curiosity once, sadly. Walk-Snap-Tamiyo the usual broken assets, Kaito great plan B. Tutors plus Deluge/Harvester make sure you don't lose creature matchups.

FINALLY QUALIFIED FOR THE PRO TOUR WITH A RUNNER UP AT RC MEXICO!
It鈥檚 been a dream of mine since I started playing this game when I was 9: MTG at the highest level. To qualify playing my favorite format Modern, my favorite deck of all times: Murktide with Jace the Mind Sculptor winning a Game 3 vs Orzhov Blink on its own and getting to play the finals with @JCastellan; whom I want to thank for being a great friend and mentor, was much more than I could ask for a tournament. Thanks to my team @SuperFly070707 @kevxe13 and the rest of the competitive Guatemalan folks!
@FetchAndShock for the content and always giving us hope on Frogtide and @BardHumming for always supporting the real OG Murktide Discord testing!
See you in Las Vegas on June to roll some Final Fantasy!
