Keeping notes on individual players.

[kyleess]

I think about doing it all the time. But I'm a fundamentally lazy person. Does anyone keep recorded notes on what decks different people tend to play? Most of the forum users tend to mix it up, I've noticed. Maybe showing off that we aren't one-trick-ponies...

But I face a number of very good opponents who beat me down with the same build over and over. Every time, I think to myself, "next time, they are gonna face the wrath!"

Then, I forget and play some random deck that plays right into their hands.

I'm probably taking it too seriously

I got a few mental notes people with decks I lost hard against.

When counters were all dominant I kept a list of all counter players. If I meet them again I used a counter killer deck.

Right now I only do mental notes to the really surprising decks I see.

I used to remember the guys who exploited the disconnection bugs, but it's not necessary now.

Mental notes as well

I remember guys like brageus who use stronghold and stuff.
