Bad luck, bad results, good experience (Weekend Event report) [ ENG | ESP ]
This Weekend Event was definitely the toughest one I've had since I started playing Gods Unchained. I don't know if the pro players were asleep and decided to wake up for this weekend, or it was just my unlucky days. In total I had 14 wins; far from the 20 I required to get a legendary DO pack. The truth is that, even before the weekend, everything went particularly badly.
Definitivamente este Weekend Event fue el más complicado que he tenido desde que comencé a jugar Gods Unchained. No sé si los pro players estarían dormidos y decidieron despertar para este fin de semana, o simplemente fueron mis días de mala suerte. En total sumé 14 victorias; lejos de las 20 que requería para obtener un paquete legendario de DO. Lo cierto es que, incluso antes del fin de semana, todo marchó particularmente mal.

For starters, I didn't make it to Mythic before the event started. I was trying for hours on Thursday but, no matter that I was just a win away from the goal, I kept falling back to the start of Ethereal Diamond. At a certain point I was just about to fall into Solar Gold, so for the sake of my mental health I stayed there, in the penultimate rank.
About the gods I faced in this Weekend Event, comparing it to last week, I must mention two things: the dominant presence of Nature (eight games against Aeona opponents) and War (seven against Auros) decks is maintained. Last week I played 14 opponents with either of these two gods, this time it was 15. This and other data can be better appreciated in last week's table and the one below:
Para empezar, no logré llegar a Mythic antes de que iniciara el evento. Estuve intentándolo por horas el jueves pero, por más que quedaba a una escasa victoria del objetivo, siempre retrocedía de vuelta al inicio de Ethereal Diamond. Llegado a cierto punto estuve a nada de caer en Solar Gold, así que por el bien de mi salud mental me quedé ahí, en el penúltimo rango.
Sobre los dioses que enfrenté en este Weekend Event, valiéndome de una comparativa con la semana pasada, debo mencionar dos cosas: se mantiene la presencia dominante de decks de Naturaleza (ocho partidas contra rivales con Aeona) y Guerra (siete contra Auros). En la semana pasada jugué contra 14 oponentes con alguno de estos dos dioses, esta vez fueron 15. Este y otros datos pueden apreciarse mejor en la tabla de la semana pasada y en la que dejaré a continuación:
Among other bad news, I still can't beat opponents with Magic decks. Four losses in a row against Magic both worry me and get my attention. So, as soon as the event was over, I put together a deck to test Elyrian's strengths. I've made some modifications to it, but I'm trying to keep the essence.
Entre otras malas noticias, todavía no puedo vencer a rivales con decks de Magia. Cuatro derrotas seguidas contra Magia me preocupan y a la vez llaman mi atención. Por ello, apenas terminé el evento, armé un deck para probar las fortalezas de Elyrian. Le he hecho algunas modificaciones, pero intento mantener la esencia.

My deck for this Weekend Event was exactly the same as the one I used in last week's, in which I got 13 wins in Mythic, better results than the current ones. I notice that with this combination I have a certain "ease" in overcoming the aggro decks, even if this week's results don't show it, and the combination of Death with zombies has been particularly easy on several occasions.
I still think I can get a lot of use out of this deck, perhaps with some minor modifications. However, it's also time to put together an "alternative" option. In addition to Magic, I've tried a few combinations with Light in a tentative way. If I can put together something worthwhile, maybe I could face my first Weekend Event with a different deck than the ones in the Nature domain.
Mi deck para este Weekend Event fue exactamente el mismo que usé en el de la semana anterior, en el que conseguí 13 victorias en Mythic, mejores resultados que los actuales. Noto que con esta combinación tengo cierta "facilidad" para superar los decks aggro, aunque los resultados de esta semana no lo demuestren así, y la combinación de Muerte con zombis ha sido particularmente fácil en varias oportunidades.
Aún creo que le puedo sacar provecho a este deck, quizá haciéndole algunas pequeñas modificaciones. No obstante, también es tiempo de armar una opción "alternativa". Además de Magia, he probado de forma escueta combinaciones con Luz. Si consigo armar algo que valga la pena, quizá podría enfrentar mi primer Weekend Event con un deck diferente a los del dominio de Naturaleza.

Watchtower is too slow for the meta I feel. Also if you're running bladeflys, wildfire is good with them and the rest of the wild creatures.
It is very complicated to combine bladeflys with Wildfire. I use them more as a nuisance to make the opponent spend resources.
