I guess I’m an exception, then. I played my first Legacy event last week with a proxy deck, and I can’t wait to play again tonight. I’ve been spending the past week obsessively watching videos, reading primers, on discord, and thinking about how to buy into the format, and also converted my Modern Burn to Legacy.

I also had the incredibly good fortune to go undefeated, but I was fully prepared and expecting to go 0-x.
