Another week in Mythic. I must say the weekend ranked did not start off well. I was nursing a massive hangover and the first few games were silly losses. Once we were inevitability demoted back to Diamond, the train managed to get back on the tracks an 11 Mythic wins was the result. As usual, Heirloom was the name of the game.
Zero changes, this deck is just so competitive, you have a reasonable chance in most matchups.
My best ever result in Mythic with 11 wins, against the odds with a hangover from hell and going second more than we would like. Funnily enough, the matchup against Control Magic which has always been heavily in our favour has started to slip away. The heavy burst damage available to them with Pyrrhic Knowledge, now allows them to just win out of hand without playing some of those big creatures they used to rely on.

We got Echophon and Kaya in our Legendary WR packs. A shadow Savage Strike goes with my only ever Diamond, a Savage Strike.
Not many Gods, I just don't have the time at the moment.
This coming weekend is going to be tight to play 18 games. I'm away for a long weekend and will only be back with a few hours remaining in the Weekend Ranked. I may see if I can just grab a few reward packs in quick time with a class cannon type Heirloom deck.
I've also got another speculative article in the works which I think people will find interesting so look out for that in the near future.
That wraps it up for this week, I look forward to running into you out there on the cliff face!
