Description
I went 5–2 and finished 10th at the nineties MTG Legacy Championship—and after this tournament, I'm locked in on Cephalid Breakfast for Eternal Weekend.
Coming into the event, I hadn't played much paper Legacy since Eternal Weekend last year. But after working through the deck with Larson in our Cephalid Breakfast Masterclass, I had a much clearer plan for the deck, its matchups, and how to sideboard.
In this tournament report, ForceofPhil and I break down the list, discuss why I'm committed to Loki over other options, and walk through the matches that defined the day.
What we cover:
Why Loki is the right fit for Cephalid Breakfast
The three plans: Breakfast combo, Loki value, and Urza's Saga constructs
How Relic of Progenitus performed across the tournament
A close match against Doomsday
What I learned from losing to Surveillance Cam
The mirror against another Cephalid Breakfast pilot
Beating Hogaak and Beanstalk Control
What went wrong against Aluren
How Larson's sideboard guide helped against Energy
Why matchup preparation matters when you don't have many reps
The biggest takeaway? A tournament result is great, but learning exactly what matters in unfamiliar matchups can be even more valuable. The losses showed me where I need more practice—and the wins convinced me that this is the deck I want to register for Eternal Weekend.
