πŸ§™β€β™‚ Took me 7 months to figure out that you can only earn up to 750 XP per day towards mastery pass completion on Arena once the first 15 wins per week bonuses are used up. You get 25 XP per win for the first 10 in a day and nothing after (I usually aim for 5 wins a day).

πŸ§™β€β™‚ Goldspan Dragon is the truth. Spent four mythic wildcards to build the Izzet Flash deck that LSV came up with (had virtually all the other rare/mythic pieces) and used it to level up to Tier 2 in Silver tonight. Still figuring out all its nuances, but managed to defeat a Yorion/Esper Doom deck in a very close game.

πŸ§™β€β™‚ Ran into my first Tibalt’s Trickery deck on the ladder tonight. Luckily I had a Negate in hand and they immediately scooped after I countered their nonsense, but kind of surprised to see it outside the play queue.

Waited until the last day possible before resetting my expiring work password. Now going through the two factor dance with my phone several times in a row to reconnect all my Office365 apps on a couple different computers.

πŸ§™β€β™‚ Finished 6-3 in my first Kaldheim Premier Draft with an Izzet Giants deck. I will definitely be doing at least a couple more before Quick Draft starts. It felt easier to assemble a decent deck drafting against humans and the rewards are better.

πŸ§™β€β™‚ Played one sealed Kaldheim draft and got some good cards, but was only able to pick up a couple wins. Going to cash in a draft token and do a premier draft later tonight. Already starting to see some interesting new constructed decks on the ladder and in the Play queue.

That's a good idea. It's so weird to see these accounts get created and then just sit there.

πŸ§™β€β™‚ Woke up a little early today and was able to complete my daily quest and win a couple games before work. The big Kaldheim set release maintenance window started at 8am PST and is supposed to finish in about 3 hours.

πŸ‘πŸ» Just did a quick first pass on our driveway and by the time I got to the end there was a fresh layer where I started!

Nice snowy day so far this morning so I may not be getting in my usual afternoon run after all. Plenty of other ways to get exercise inside though.
