Wotc made another mistake. I think another tournament will go by before anything gets done. Even though people did plan on seeing the bird and it still did that I think wotc will to make sure the meta can't shift and beat it like they did with Hogaak.

[@crawdaddy2312]

They more than likely wait to see if the meta can adapt. Hopefully maybe it can and it just like hogaak where the meta adapting was the hogaak decks playing main deck leyline to beat the mirror

[@infjdub]

Even if the meta can adapt and drops the deck to like a 54% winrate, its an absolutely miserable play experience. I think it would actually earn wizards some good will by quickly admitting their mistake and getting ahead of it.

[@crawdaddy2312]

Absolutely. I cant foresee any option other than just banning the bird and calling it a day so the other decks in the format can have fun and spread their wings (no pun intended)

[@infjdub]

​@@crawdaddy2312it's such an exciting new format and way too early for a tier zero deck to stifle creativity. I don't know how the hell you make a top 4 with Pardee, Nielsen and Kassis boring but they found a way.

[@crawdaddy2312]

RIGHT?? Dont get me wrong, i feel like there were some exciting moments but they were ruined by being from a deck that as the opp you have to hope they get incredibly unlucky. Would’ve loved to see any one of them playing something like necro or one of the energy based midrange decks

[@infjdub]

​@@crawdaddy2312sadly it's for the best that Javier got absurdly unlucky as well as misplaying. Had he won the tournament (which I think he was well positioned to do) I think there might have been a bit more lag dealing with Nadu.

[@crawdaddy2312]

@infjdub for sure. Javier probably had the best deck for the best deck and had he played a little tighter in some spots and gotten a hair luckier it would not have been close. Overall that match was a lot sloppier from both sides at times than i would’ve liked to see from a former world champion vs one of the most dominant players from the last 2 years

[@davidcampbell6087]

In Javier’s defense, Simon “cheated” in 2 of the games he won

[@crawdaddy2312]

Im assuming both times dealing with the one ring giving protection? I know that was one of them but can’t remember the other off hand

@@crawdaddy2312 no the 2nd one was when he played a dryad arbor and another land in the same turn
