Tried putting together my own version of UR Delver, seemed to perform fairly well at first, but I definitely didnt do enough playtesting to be prepared properly.
Day 1 I ran into Infect, Imperial Painter, UWR Stoneblade, then another UWR Stoneblade, Burn, some interesting Junk Stoneblade brew, Elves, Painter again, and BUG Delver.
Day 2 started going downhill right away vs Death and Taxes, beat another odd Stoneblade brew, then lost to UR Landstill, then more Death and Taxes, and finally Miracles.
Question for the people who go to these things: how skilled are your opponents? I noticed that when I went to SCG: Oakland that many of them were noobs and were shaky handed making me believe a lot of people haven't a clue what they're doing. I know that when you start getting into the higher rankings, opponents do get better, but is the mass of the people at GPs weak players?

Some of my friends who attended said the first few rounds were pretty low-skill. Someone even had a Standard deck and another 60 lands. They just wanted the freebies. At the same time, Day 2'ing with a 7-2 record isn't trivial.
