While I do enjoy bringing random tier 1-3 decks to my local FNM and still placing top 3 consistently I'm jealous of the fierce competition the larger areas seem to have. Being unable to do PTQ or anything awesome because of my job makes me rage often.
I have still yet to find a T2 deck that beats Valakut for its absolute hilarity-win condition. Hurr, play mountain, you take 3-6-9 damage. Durr, Harrow, you take 6-12-18 damage.
