Oh no!  I forgot to write "Red Deck Wins" on my decklist.  This is an insufferable travesty.

Fun event.  I was trounced by my teammates Matt Murray and Justin.  All that effort climbing out under 80,000 spheres only to be unceremoniously clobbered to death on Library by a trio of Time Walking Trinket Mages.  <3 Vintage.

It was great seeing everyone.  I was thrilled to see an Elves deck splashing white for Dragonlord Dromoka. 

Shawn, I didn't see the report from last month's event.  Who won?

OMG I completely overlooked Dromoka in Elves!!! He is a Zenith Target to crush Delver and Blue decks very nice tech!

Many thanks to Shawn for hosting.  It was a small event, but a fun one.  The Blowout Train put 2 decks in the top 4, there was a Varosky showing, pumpkin Oreo milkshakes, and all my opponents were a blast to play against.  I've been holding off playing Aggro Gush for a very long time, but it was fun and can be very explosive.  I was just lucky enough to find double Lightning Bolt vs Ryan and his dragon.
