Hello and welcome out there!
First off I wanna say, that I did NOT take ANY notes, which can result in some mazy reproductions of the games.
So I played today at the Hole of Fame, Dresden - the local gameshop in dresden.
Dresden is actually a great location for type2 players - Legacy , uhm, not that much.
Anyways, the players are all very competetive in their main formats and know how to roll.
Also everyone is playing well-developed legacy decks which also lines out in the deck arrangement of today.
Here is the deck-breakout of the day:
(Just listing the important decks)
- GoyfSligh
- Dream Halls
- ANT-Combo
- Merfolk
- Bant Aggro/Survial/CB-Top Variants
- 3 and 4coloured Landstill
- Enchantress
Before we got to the matches, here is the list I played:

MD:
creatures [12]:
1 Eternal Witness
4 Tarmogoyf
3 Swans of Bryn Argoll
2 Vendilion Clique
2 Trinket Mage
Instant [19]:

2 Pyroblast
1 Relic of Progenitus
1 Tormod's Crypt
2 Blood Moon
1 Trygon Predator
2 Krosan Grip
3 Firespout
1 Pithing needle
Round 1 vs. Thomas (CB-Bant)
Thomas is a known fella. He plays quite successive in various formats and has a good magic-IQ.
Anyways, I have the maturity-advantage (haha - that's a good one, right)
and go quite relaxed into the match.
Match1.
I have first round top , second round counterbalance.
My life records shows I took some dmg through my own fetches and forces but won on good SEVENTEEEEN life.
Board:
+2 Blood Moon
+3 RBlasts
+1 SUMMONING TRAP
-2 Daze
-2 Bolt
-1 Swan
-1 Chain
Match2.
He goes first and fetches nonbasics all the time.
Eventually I can drop a blood moon with counterbackup and him fetching for a plains in response. Awesome - I win!
Not.
His RWM beat's me 4 turns because I cannot find a solution (just drawing lands for 4 turns - bleh) and can just get rid of him by playing a clique in response to his attack and bolting the Monk.
But Thomas finds a green and drops a qasali pridemage wich shows my anus through my anus.
Match3.
My record says I win this at SEVENTEEN life.
Well T1 Top, T2 CB with some daze and fow backup is good I hear.
The finisher was goyf, pranking Thomas in 4 turns.
2-1
1-0-0
Well, a decent start by beating one of the champs I assume. :laugh:
Round 2 vs. Frank with Goyfsligh
Uhm, Frank just has one Legacy deck and I played him on some tourneys before. It's always an advantage to know some guys with the same nerdy hobby as oneself.
Match1.
I cannot find the lock, and he beats me heavy.
He sends one of my goyf's into exile and I fail to find other beater.
Just before I can get the lock online he double-POP's me for a total of 12 dmg. I had 12 life so, well done mate.
Match2.
I have the fast CBLock and can get rid of his pridemage.
Short story short - I win via the swancombo.
Match3.
This time it's a dmg race.
I drop Swan turn4 (without cblock but with fow backup) and combo on turn5, with him trying to exile the swan in response which is of course denied by the sheer force of my will. Harhar!
4-2
2-0-0
The second taste of success and it is sweet still.
Round 3 vs. Alex with 4c Landstill
Alex seems to have drunk a bit too much coffee lately.
He is a bit hyperactive and moves his hands with squirrelish(wtf) quickness.
Match1
This one was very close.
I can beat him fast to 3 life when he starts to chain standstills and I start to draw just lands.
He wins on 2 life by beatdowning me to 0 with 2 mishra's factories after I can disable a wished pulse of the fields.
I even HAD the burn on my hand, but he dust bowled me for some turns and left me completely without red mana. (all sources gone :()
Match2
He plays turn 2 standstill with mishra on table.
I play turn 3 Blood Moon with force backup.
Match3
This one was close, too.
I had the winbutton-Blood Moon, but he had an active EE on 3, so I couldn't play my win card and had to race him with cliques.
He eventually misplayed on some parts as he later told me and I won on 6 life with my sweet cliques.
I loveded you faeries, I loveded you.
6-3
3-0-0
I am unbeatable after the third round?!
Somethings really wrong, I smelled bad karma coming up, so I decided to lose the next round.
Round 4 vs. Johannes with ENCHANTRESS
Johannes is a not so expierienced player, who plays decent but makes then and some stupid mistakes.
Well, he is young and has the potential and I took this serious.
Match1.
My records say I loose the first match by conceiding to a horde of enchantmens and me drawing blanks for some round on SEVENTEEN life.
Match2.
I have the fast cblock and win this.
Match3.
I get the early counterbalance online (without the top though) and eventually drop a clique at the end of his draw-phase.
I look at his hand: land, land, Ench. Presence x2 and O-Ring.
Since I am a bit afraid that I might not have the cc3 spell on top I take the O-Ring.
He draw's a card taps 3 and plays O-Ring.
Hey karma, how's the weather in asshole town? Good?
Of course he takes away my counterbalance, plays his presences and get's the solitary confinement while having 15 life.
FFS! I have a clique and a goyf in play, 3 lands in hand and the lightning storm.
I could deal him 14 dmg! If he had just fetched and not get the confinement...
Meh. I take it like a man and proceed loosing because he draws a replenish and trashes the battlefield with his enchantments.
I know I have lost, but want to play it out.
He has his winoption in play (red words) a confinement and my cb, goyf and clique O-ringed.
I draw - MO'FUCKIN EXPLOSIVES.
FUCK YEAH.
But no.
I am missing ONE land (after my landdrop of the turn) because he has a aura of silence.
Ah, still good weather in asshole town, karma? I see...
Well yeah, so I lose because I get killed with words of war.
At least I die in battle.
Like all honorable men.
7-5
3-1-0
Round 5 vs Martin
ID
Top8.
So I heard first price is 3 byes for the gp in madrid?
Awesome.
Round 1 vs. Paul with Armageddon Staxx
Well, I know what he is playing, since I did a little sneaky research after the 2nd round and am not amused.
I don't think this matchup is any good but oh well, the goddess of luck does not like me that much. Unfortunately, she is a sister of the goddess of fortune too :(
Anyways, let's get on.
Paul seems to not be very content with his hand and mulls.
And again.
And again.
And again.
I was like oO and he was like Oo.
He takes it like a man and plays with 3 handcards.
Two goyfs have a party dancing on his entrails.
Match 2.
I get raped by Elspeth.
Seriously, how good is that card.
I had 3!!!! Goyfs. ( 2 were hit by an O-Ring [I don't like the card anymore]) and the last one just lost the damage race against a flying mine worker.
WTF. A flying mine worker?!
That is not very honorable.
It's a game involving a ton of mighty spells and cunning magic, with dragons breeding in their holes and yetis dancing on the mountains. AND HE KILLS ME WITH A FLYING MINE WORKER?!
Ok. I'm cool.
Match 3.
You know what's cool?
Yeah, a tarmogoyf's cool.
The opp. not drawing any land and getting his crucible countered after his OWN armageddon is cool.
Shooting away chump-blockers is cool.
Winning with a single tarmogoyf going the distance is PRICELESS.
(9-6)
Halffinals
Vs. Frank with GoyfSligh
Ah, it's the guy from Round 2. So no need for introductions here.
Off we go into the roil!
DADADADADADADADADA.
Match 1.
I have the CB-Lock on 15 life and win it sovereign by beating him with a clique for 9 turns.
Match 2.
He mulls once, starts off with a Nacatl T1, an Ape and blitz T2 and an Qasali T3.
I have T2 Goyf and T3 Firespout and goyf wins it, with him wasting two handcards to try to get the goyf away (helix + blast lol) but I can counter the blast and just take the win into the tight grip of my manly hands.
Final:
Vs. Thomas, yes the guy from round 1, told'ya he's good, did I?
He tell's me he has the tickets for madrid already and sine I have exams around that date ( :( ) I just conceide and give him the win.
Not being a dick is always cool.
In my case it rewards me with a foil Scalding Tarn and a mindbreak Trap for the second place.
Props:
-The Hole of Fame - awesome owner, with whom you can go drinking beer all night
- Thomas for being a damn successive magic-cunt
- Swan-Combo for performing good, despite being despised as a bad deck.
- Card-Broker who sell me 5 Ghostly Prison and a Mother of Runes for 1€
Slops:
- Fat Cook (a friend ) for showing up but not playing because he is afraid to loose his buyes oO
- Enchantress for being a roque dildo forced up manly asses
- Taking the wrong binder with you when you're hot for trading
That's it guys, thanks for reading, have a good night, over and out.
