@ChironTheMage @mtgbanding How do you not know about Joven and his Ferrets

[Eric Hawkins @conanhawk]

@queuep0p Would love to play in this! Sounds awesome!

[Eric Hawkins @conanhawk]

Lots of great things about #RQHartford. Staff, vibes, coverage, product, to name a few. I dont want this to be looked at as a negative post and more of a constructive post. Please have more than one counter for food, add a round or two, and start the day earlier. Ty

Day 2 is around 2 hours away. Finished 7-1 yesterday. Hopefully can improve on that today.

For the collection

@LSXYZ9 I dont have exact stats but looking at the best records at the Yomi's site Yi's numbers look inflated. Vs the better players, top 64, Yi was losing a fair amount even vs decks where it had a very positive matchup. All this to say I think Yi is the litmus test but the bar is high

@AikadoLoR If you look at the results of the players above x-3 at the last rq they have a very good record vs yi even when the matchup is under 40%. This leads me to believe that you need a certain skill level to be the average/good yi player and not really a certain deck. Tldr: litmus test

[Eric Hawkins @conanhawk]

Prediction for #RQUtrecht is Yi/Diana/Irelia repeat as the best decks. Lux combo does pretty poorly but a new more "normal" build with the combo comes out and does well, possibly in another shell like Leblanc. Outside of the top 3 deck aggro decks do well while the others fall.

This team lost in the semi finals?

Starts at around 9 hours

[Eric Hawkins @conanhawk]

Super excited to try this OTK Lux deck but at the same time I hope it isnt as good as it looks as I dont think this would be a good thing for Riftbound.

[Eric Hawkins @conanhawk]

@Doowan_ Yes, yes, no, yes

[Eric Hawkins @conanhawk]

@Doowan_ @ravster49 As someone that has played a bunch of leblanc, I would say there are certain builds that focus on things like petal pixie where the blue one is better. Also on the play where holding is easier blue can be better. But in most builds and generally the yellow one is better.
