      As long as you can trim down each game to be about 15-20 minutes (or shorter if there’s quick games) I doubt anyone would mind at all!

      Yeah I wanted to make sure it was clear that the Strip Mine wasn't really the wrong play at the time. Najeela had, what seemed like, plenty of mana for anything so 1 less land would affect that player less than 1 less land for Brago. Glad it came across well. Thanks for the feedback!

    Love the double-header. Really clunky finish for Elsha, though. I much prefer Chandra's Ignition or Aetherflux Reservoir as wincons. Fairly easy to do with Force, Pact, and Foil in hand. Lotus Petal, Chrome Mox, or Simian Spirit Guide provides the red mana.

    Definetely prefer seeing both games giving a second chance for another deck to shine :)

    As someone in a play group with a Gitrog player, I'm just glad the frog didn't win.

    Love the double header and thanks for the amazing gameplay, even if I came to watch brago

      Apologies I couldn't bring more of a staxy controlling brago game like promised. Sadly I hit a very bad string of mulligans both games and couldn't keep up with any of the other decks at the table.

      It's fine, brago has always had the weakness to bad draws, thanks for playing him
