You need to realize that taking Green duals is *not* fixing for your deck. If you remove your green splash you’re just a Mardu deck with zero duals and 3 lands that come into play tapped. It was absurd to not only pass the Crag + Caves at the end of pack 2 (which should have been seen as no less than a miracle), but then even more absurd to be happy to get another RG land which does practically nothing for you.

Hey Marshall, I respect you as a player but I have to say that you are pretty terrible at keeping track of what kind of deck you are actually drafting Like this time when you do not realize until deckbuilding that you want to be just RW. Had you paid more attention to your fixing you would never take Ponyback Brigade over BR dual and so on.

How exactly do you Timely Hoardmate back a Mardu Heart-Piercer?

Correct me if I’m wrong but match 3 game 1 could have been won a lot sooner (4 minute mark)by taking the snowhorn rider and attacking him for 10 bringing him down to 2. From here you have two outs to winning.

The first which killed me is to just have a creature advantage. The next is attack with the mardu heart-piercer alone. The piercer gets blocked and then you timely hoardmate him back dealing 2 damage to your opponent. You missed the win by doing this at 7:33 as well….

In Round 3, Game 1, you once again misplay act of treason.
Right after he tapped out to play Snowhorn Rider, you should have played act of treason to steal it. This would have brought him down to 2, you up to 23 and left you with 3 lethal attackers and a Hateblade on the board with the certainty that he would have to block or kill the seeker next turn to ensure value off of Hordemate.
There was a good chance that in such a morph heavy format that he would block the 2/3. Even if he did block the seeker, it’s a play that applies less pressure and allows him much more room to deal with your threats and possibly even counterspell or Crippling Chill in response to your act, which would could have gotten him back in it.
Once again you can not identify that you were the aggro and instead of applying consistent pressure against his control-oriented deck, you try to set up one risky coup-de-grace.

In game 1, match 3, doesn’t arrow storm just kill the opponent? Am I missing something?
