Regionals Penang 2007

I went to Regionals Penang yesterday to try my luck on qualifying for the Malaysian Nationals. And I guess I was very lucky to be able to qualify for the Nationals. HOWEVER, the deck which I used was not mine. I would say that full credit should go to my friend, Brian, who borrowed me the deck and thought me how to play with it. I really thank him.

I was using Gruul deck and I was considered very lucky to beat 2 top players from Penang, Rick Lee (Sifu) and Lim Ban Lee (Bouncer) in the first two round. They were running a Tron deck and a Blue Scryb Ranger respectively. Those were tough decks. I was really, really lucky to be honest, as they experienced Mana Flood or Mana Screw. That was the reason I beat them in the first two rounds.

At the top 8, I was facing Ah Sei with his Dranlu deck. It was quite though and once again, I won because of opponent mana screwing and not drawing counterspells. It was really really pure luck I would say, really, really, pure luck. If I were to get such luck in Nationals, I would be extremely happy.....
