300 games of Sage since mid-October really cranking my stats up. #fabtcg

Rise From the Ashes + Fire that Burns Within + blue is a 3 card 15 (or 16 if you draw a blaze headlong instead of a head jab), PEN CC is solved sorry everyone #fabtcg

Manifesting CC + SAGE PT for Yokohama please @fabtcg.com #fabtcg

Golden cold foil Harmonized Kodachi (right).

Won my PQ on Dash I/O! Feels good to have LL points on another hero. Also expertly dodged Bunker Beard and got a great gold foil hit. #fabtcg

Spent a month working on Fai for #fabtcg Australian nationals, and yet...

Hope it's my opponents that explode instead of my tournament.

tell me you want to play Fai without telling me you want to play Fai

3-1 with Cash Out Aurora tonight. Ws into Aurora, Fang and Boltyn, L into Aurora (a friend who knew exactly what I was playing and sideboarded correctly). The best part, though, was definitely the confused faces around the room.

Aurora was 31% of the PT field;
36% of the 7-2+ CC records;
45% of the 8-1+ CC records;
and the only 9-0 CC deck. Even with draft rounds intervening, she's 3/8 of T8.

Even if she doesn't win the PT, still insane numbers for the deck with a target on its back.

Guess I better move to Japan then.

Any tips on how to get draft removed from my nats too?

Just in case you thought I was joking about him being the best...

Fai is beginner friendly and also the best deck, so that's pretty convenient.

The "top8 all RTN/PQ" streak is over, with a 4-2 (3-2 in games played) with Aurora:
R1 - Nuu L
R2 - Bye
R3 - Vis W
R4 - Cindra W
R5 - Vis L
R6 - Nuu W

Maybe the real road to Nationals was the friends we made along the way.

Aurora is great, I'm just bad.

I heard we were doing year end reviews for #fabtcg 👀

fabrary.net/year-in-review

Is this a lot of games? It feels like a lot, but do I even crack the top 10%?

My #fabtcg 2024 in review:
Top 8'd all RTN/PQs I played, including 2 wins (Fai, Aurora) and 1 finals split (Maxx).

Lost a top 8 win-and-in at Calling Sydney.

Did poorly at Callings Queenstown & KL, nats weekend, BH Melbourne weekend.

Need to get better at T2+ events!

Taking a break from #fabtcg until The Hunted releases, going from Rathe to Wraeclast for some #poe2. New Zealand is just taking all my disposable income and free time this year...

#fabtcg Calling KL did not go well 🤕

Aurora for the Calling: 3-3-1 (thanks CYB nuu!)

DIO for the BH: 4-3 to miss t16 vanity WT point

-44 Elo on the weekend 💀

Time to play some POE2 until I get to play draconic ninja cards again...

Except that in my case the backup deck is clearly better and I've been talked into playing it instead 😅

But then what if I keep winning with the backup deck and psyop myself out of playing the one I've actually spent 3 weeks tuning

Does anyone else travel to #fabtcg events with a backup deck packed even though you're like 99.9% locked on a different deck? I'm about to jump on an international flight with extra weight I'm almost certain I will not use, and I feel kinda insane for doing so.

Ah, cool, thanks. Were there a lot of Auroras around the top tables in later rounds, or did they all just fall off?

Congrats on the good run! Would you be open to sharing your Aurora list?
