Absolut Frustration

Is it just me, or does everyone automatically assume that the only way they can win now is with Stall?

Well, that's what it seems like.

Wednesday night, I get home to an offer to play an SS3 Afterburn game on apprentice. I load up my Edge Army deck and am prepared to play. HE pulls up The Rock.

2 hours later...I'm pulling my hair out wishing he'd just do something. He gets around my Strap with Vince, and gets around my ability and Old School Psychs with I can't Be Reading this right. About 70% of his turns consisted of him getting those back in his hand and nothing else. I didn't care who won, I was just glad it was over.

Today, I play an UF Afterburn game. I play my Gail & Molly deck versus Christy. Great, inferno match, and then he takes over an old school psych with the old switcheroo.

I had 40 F by the end of the game. He had EIGHT! And he was still beating me. Action, overturn one or two, and then shuffle in 3-5. oh for God sake! I play something, REVERSAL. And no matter what, if I had him down to 1 card in hand, I had no chains. If he had more than 3 cards in hand, I'd have one, and he'd have a reversal. It was annoying. On top of that, I lost my Bald to a Skirt, so I could YFH my ability to get something rolling. It was pathetic.

If someone starts going with another stall deck on me on apprentice this week...I'm gonna scream, and jump out the basement window.
