By now you’ll all have read Timmy’s message appealing for more involvement in clan activities. The alphabet league is still running, and it’s not too late to join. If you’re undecided about joining then please do, it’s really a very exciting format with some surprising things about it.
Surprise number one: just playing the best deck might not win you the league. Due to bonus points you can get ahead of other players. With my letter C deck if I win 8 matches I will have 16 points. Right now Wildman with his letter K deck has won 4, lost 4 and is on 17 points. That’s right, with a 50% win rate he’s ahead of someone on 100% wins without bonuses!
Surprise number two: decks are really competitive. Even the letter K which is supposed to be weak and gets a bonus. It’s got 1 drops with suspend, flankers, and Kaervek’s torch for a finisher. Other decks based off busted cards can do well too, Crypt Rats and Sprout Swarm for instance. I hear the mountain deck is better than expected.
If you can’t be in this league then join the next. That will be a Standard format league. With 50 people in our clan we surely can get at least 20 interested in playing the most popular format in pauper. If you don’t like what’s on offer then let Timmy know what clan events you would like.
