A decently fast 9-turn finish will generally give you 1st place in R16. Thunder and fire decks both work for R16, so you can experiment a bit.

Since we have a week before the cup, you can rank up to R16 and test out possible decks. If it turns out you're not ready for R16, you can sandbag back to R15. Bring a deck with shufflers and SS heal and answer off-color questions to stall and rake up the turns. You'll place really low then and eventually rank down.
