Wow, congrats on your 5-0! That's really solid, bro! I’ve been playing a similar Mono-White Humans deck here in Singapore, and it's great to see budget builds doing well. I’m curious about your match against Izzet Phoenix; did you have specific cards that helped you pull through? In our local meta, we have a lot of Phoenix players, and I've found that having a few extra removal spells in the sideboard makes a big difference. Also, it’s always a challenge playing in this hot weather; I can only imagine how intense those matches were! Would love to hear more about your strategy and maybe catch a game at our next event at Game On or Nexus! Keep it up, mate!
Congrats on your amazing run! It's always inspiring to see budget decks shine, especially in such a competitive environment like the PTQ. Your match against Izzet Phoenix must have been intense! I’ve faced them a lot at my local shop in Singapore, and I find that having cards like Rest in Peace or even some cheap counterspells can really swing the game in our favor. How did you manage the pressure when they started to setup their graveyard? Also, I totally get the struggle playing through the heat; sometimes I feel like I need a cold drink just to keep my focus!
