Despite pack 1 going very well, it appears I ended up in the same colors as my neighbors on both sides, as packs 2 and 3 were just horrible. My deck still ended up decent however, as I had a fair bit of removal to go with my Orgg and Stronghold Overseer.
I lost a frustrating first round in two mana flooded games. In the first I kept an opening hand of two Swamps, two Mountains, Feebleness, Funeral Charm, and Gorgon Recluse. In this game I drew one more spell before he cast Bogardan Hellkite. The second game was quite similar as I kept a hand of Orgg, Assasinate, and Flowstone Channeler, and lands, and drew two more spells while getting overrun by his solid but unspectacular draw.
Until tomorrow,
Rich
