The last weekend of May was scheduled for the Dragon’s Maze Gameday event. We had one here in Iloilo on that Saturday, and in Bacolod on a Sunday. Even if I didn’t performed well enough in the local shores and just reached the quarterfinals, I decided to give the deck another shot on Bacolod DGM Gameday.
We initially planned with the group to go there, but last-minute schedule mishap (as well as other factors) made the others unable to join. Oliver and I ended up going there, representing Team Iloilo. I arrived at Bacolod at 11:30 am via Ocean Jet and immediately contacted Sir Anton.
The event was held at O-hotel (which was owned by one of the players there) and started at around 1 pm. 21 players registered for the tournament, with 5 rounds of gameplay. I piloted the same Jund Midrange while Oliver brought Bant Hexproof. Here is a summary of my results per round.
Round 1 – Won.
Round 2 – paired with Oliver, so it was a draw.
Round 3 – Won.
Round 4 – Lost
Round 5 – Lost
The last round should’ve ended with a draw as the game against Junk Tokens was very intense and full of action plays. It was a win-and-in scenario, and if we drew, we would be both eliminated. I decided to just concede to the player to give him a shot at the top 8. We just arranged the prize packs split.
Joma piloting Naya Blitz ended up winning the event after going undefeated in the first 5 rounds. The deck’s just pure & fast beatdown.
We had dinner at a BBQ restaurant after that and went to their tambayan near the San Agustin School for a night of booze. Their place surely is a one-stop shop. The Bacolod peeps are truly friendly and accommodating to us, so kudos to you guys. Big Thanks!
