(I am putting this in limited due to the constraints of having a limited amount of cards available during the course of an event. It seemed to fit here best.)
So last weekend was Dragon Con and they had an "Intro League" which was great because I didn't have time to do a two or three hour event, and the 20-40 min games with players of varying skill levels was a blast. I got to teach new players and test my mettle against good players with usually better decks.
To start you paid your fee (16$), recieved a random intro pack depending on the number you picked, and after the end of every game the winner got to look at two random cards from a card chest and keep one. The loser got to keep a different random card. The random cards were M12 and M13 cards.
The unfun part was that over the whole weekend I was one of two people to recieve the M12 Entangling Webs Intro Pack, while playing against M12, M13, Inn., and AVR intro packs. But over the weekend I was able to scrap together enough cards to turn the G/r steaming pile into a semi-decent ramp deck. BEHOLD:
