It's time for another Midweek Magic! This week, the event was Slow Start, which is a variant of Alchemy where the starting player's first land enters the battlefield tapped. Aggro decks beware, because this format is not for you!
To participate in this week's event, I ran a mono blue Delver tempo deck, running a lot of spells to pay off Haughty Djinn and Tolarian Terror! We run bounce spells like Fading Hope and counter spells like Make Disappear, Essence Scatter and Spell Pierce to keep our opponents at bay while we get in with our creatures!
Overall, we ended up going 3-2, with one win being a gimmie because they scooped up mid-Anointed Peacekeeper. The Slow Start mechanic doesn't add too much to a normal game of Alchemy, but I'll always take some free cards and cosmetics!
