MtG Parting with an Archetype

Back again! This time i'll be saying some stuff about my love/hate relationship with the Combo Archetype in Magic the Gathering.

Combo is the first competitive Legacy deck i owned. Over the months after i got it, i played it alot. Pretty much every tournament, playing 2-4 tournaments a month. Eventually i wanted to play other archetypes in tournaments and went on to play more controllish decks.

At the moment my decks of choice are BGW/BGU Nic Fit and BUG Landstill.
The reason i prefer playing these archetypes is simply because you have more control over what is happening, I love playing combo and often considered taking it with me to tournaments, but i always felt that when playing combo you're more at the hands of your opponents, rather then your own.

So after having a fair amount of succes with playing combo (multiple top 4/8s) i stopped playing it almost completely. I never stopped pimping the deck out, because it's still a love-child of mine.

However, with the increased costs of cards and my "need" to pimp out decks further, i decided to part with the deck completely. With the money i'll hopefully get off that, i can try and get more UNL Duals to get altered aswel as the last foil Fetchlands and Jaces i need :)


Here's a picture of what is left and what i'm selling on Ebay right now:

It took me a long time to get all this together, and it also took me alot of effort to be able to part with it now.


Next post, i will be either going more in-depth on my Nic-Fit creations, or posting more Puff-Pastry goodies! :D

Untill next time!

Puff Pastry!

So hi! First time blogger, so don't hate me for bad blogging ;)

I'll start my blog of with some snacks i made today! I often make puff pastry snacks when i'm bored, because they're easy to make and taste superawesome.

Usually they end up as blobs with food in it, but today i decided to make it look fancy aswell!

This is what they looked like before they went into the oven:

The round ones have little sausages in them, the triangles are with cheese and the square ones have a chocolat filling with some chocolat shavings on top!  The four other ones are just small patches of puff pastry with some cheese on top.

After 20 minutes in the oven on 230 degrees Celcius and another 20 on 180 degrees Celcius they come out like this:

Don't they look delicious!

We (my fiancee and i) immediately tasted them and ate them all! 

This concludes my first post, any comments, criticism or ideas for more puff pastry snacks are more then welcome!

See you later!
