Sealed Adaptive was a good choice for the tournament because it is very accessible. Since you play using a deck you just bought, you're not going to be playing against the most eficient decks your opponents were able to find/buy.

What that means is you buy a deck and will have to play a tournament AGAINST IT. So you get to learn how your deck plays by watching other people play it. You also get to learn how it feels to play against it, and how to beat it. This was exciting, insightful and fun!
