My Glimpse of Greatness deck worked really well! The second game I played with it, I played elder ent on turn 3, just outside the vision of his base. I got so excited, I subsequently lost (because I forgot to attack his expansion with my elven scout, which was adjacent to it . . and he played a glorn airship). But I consider myself to have won that draft anyway ;)

I almost exclusively play draft- or sealed-keep games. I LOVE trying to make what you can out of the cards given and it's always nice to occasionally get that great card like the Bronze Statue I pulled in Domain II which is about to end. Unfortunately it was about the only card worth a squat in that tourney and I couldn't figure out a deck worth playing out of them... but that's the luck of the draw, you know. D3 looks promising but I got a late start and I am moving this weekend so I'll likely not get all my games in... but the deck itself seems to be a great start. Very much looking forward to adding another pack to it to see what I can pull together in later rounds.

If it turns out to be a success, Mist, tell us about it :)

It's tough playing without buying any gold (I honestly can't afford it right now), so entering those kinds of tournaments, even once I have the gold, will be kind of a big decision. But playing free draft and sealed is so much fun, I agree.

I actually made a constructed deck that is almost a copy of this one(with some improvements ofc), and won a minor clash with it already

1 Grove
1 Great Oak
2 Vapor Mahal
1 Mogi Nest

4 Flame Ent
1 Thistle Falcon
1 Elven scout
1 Dryad(or how was it called? the one that cost 1 flux and makes saplings for damaging treents)

4 entangle
3 sunburst
3 ascent
2 flash flood
1 cloudburst
1 tremor

something like that, maybe 1 more building, although not sure
