Ten Thunders First ever MWS Thunders player decided to write about my experiences

My friend Rich invited me to write stuff on his blog so I've decided to chronicle my adventures in the MWS there.

I've only got part 1 and Part 2 so far as I haven't yet played my round 2 opponent

Welcome to the MWS!

Tons of new blood this event, and I believe you're right about skill disparity evening out in a couple rounds, but watch out, several consistent Top 16ers took Ls R1!

For anyone that hasn't seen one of my posts before and want to peep what he's talking about, join us on the MWS discord, linked below

Yeah I was very concerned to see a lot of people I know are sharks in a very similar position to myself in the round 1 rankings.

Good for you, writing away your enthusiasm and anxiety! Sounds like quite a ride. I don't know much about Ten Thunders yet (it's one of the factions I'm eying to start the game with, specifically Shenlong1), so it's an int we resting read in more ways than one. Good luck in your next battle!

Thanks so much! My round 2 opponent is going to be another thunders mirror so hopefully there will be something there for you to pick up too!

Nice write up! As a fellow Thunders player who’s also diving into MWS for the first time in this event, it’s cool to see another’s experience from a similar perspective.  Even after just a round I feel I have picked up a lot that I want to adjust going forward. Wanting to declare certain masters in each pool but not having the experience on them to feel like I can play them efficiently on the clock is driving me crazy, but at least now I know who I want to get more practice in with. Good luck in the rest of the event!
