Quick #Magic update on last night’s rare Saturday Night session: we played 2 games, and although I “affected” both of them with my two shiny new Star Trek decks, I did not manage to win either.

In the first game (which had 5 players), my modified Federation Fleet deck held up fairly well, even against 2 discard decks (including one headed by the dark lord Sauron himself) and a dragon deck, but in the end, it lost to the aforementioned Sauron and his army of orcs.

For the second game (which only had 3 players), my modified We Are the Borg deck also did well, assimilating a handful of my opponent’s creatures (despite my Borg Queen being sidelined for most of the game), but it just couldn’t stand up to a modified Landing Party deck (which dropped a Scute Swarm, Exploration, and a 6th land by round 2, giving it 32 Scute Swarms by round 5, plus a handful of other creatures, and 3 starships - talk about superior firepower!).

Maybe next time my decks will do better (or I’ll figure out what cards to replace to make them better) - the whole set technically just released this weekend, so it’s still early days for tweaking.
