Game 1: i win the roll and go first. I play an island and I Pass. He plays chrome mox plains and a soltari preist. I play a serendib efreet. He plays another soltari preist and swords my guy. I eventually run out of gas and lose
Game 2: I start off with a first turn drake he plays a land an says go. I play sword equip and he scoops.
Game 3: he makes the mistake of imprinting swords on mox 5 turns later i rode sea drake to victory.
Round 2 goblins
Game 1: i win roll and choose to go first i play an island. He plays lackey an passes. I play cloud o faeries and JUGS. he only had expensive spells so i won the race when sword came into play
Game 2: he chooses to play second for some strange reason so i play chalice 1. He reveals his hand/ vial lackey lackey fanatic trips mountain and scoops.
Round 3 UGR threshold
Game 1: i dont like this matchup very much but i try my best. He wins the roll and plays island go. I play pithing needle for flooded strand which hit two of his lands. he misses his land drop an eventually i have the game sealed with chalce for 1 and 2.
Game 2: he plays a mongoose and passes i play chalice he counters but i force he couldnt draw another land and tells me he is so aggrivated he scoops i got very lucky to win game two cause my hand was awful he top 8'ed though.
Round 4 Counterbalance.dec??
Game 1: his deck was awesome he used top with counterbalance to win but my spells had too high of converted costs for him to counter he couldnt deal with one guy so i easily won both games.
Round 5 Affinity
Game 1: i play a first turn drake he doesnt know the ruling and calls a judge but he rules in my favor he continues to quote how powerful the card is i play another one and the game ended two turns later.
Game 2: He has such an explosive hand that i lose in a matter of seconds some thing like land thopter thopter frogmite frogmite go and then land enforcer enforcer scoop
Game 3: It basically ended the same way as game 2 but this time he flinged a 8/8 ravanger at me.
Round 6 Strange Survival Variant
Game 1: He plays land bird and ends. I play first turn sea drake and pass. He plays survival and says go. I attack and pass he discard wonder for squee and squee for golgari cave troll he dredges and plays like werebear dubs eventually i cant deal with his dudes and die a terrible death.
Game 2: i crypt him twice ride sea drake
Game 3: interesting game he does the usual but he saw vial this game i set him back turns because he has to keep getting eternal witness with naturalize in yard to deal with my equipment by the time he tries to stabalize he has grave troll out 6/6 flyer but he is at 4 I draw crypt and attack with cloud of faeries and efreet for the win.
Round 7 reanimator
Ashok is 5-0-1 and tell him that he automatically gets in at 5-0-2 so we draw
Top 8 match round 1 dave feinstein playing G/R sly
Game 1: He cant deal with chalice witch gives me a huge advantage. He starts and plays land bolt i play chalice 1. He plays mongrel i play sea drake and pass he fire balsts my drake and swings for two he misses land drops for the next five turns and cloud of faeries sword and jugs finish the job.
Game 2: i kept the one land hand an never see another i lose
Game 3 : I play chalice 1 he plays land go i play cloud of faeries jugs go. He tries to fireblast my jugs but i misdirect it to his face. Sword of fire and ice ended the match two turns later.
Top 4 match Adam playing UGW threshold
Game 1: this looks like a good matchup for me so i kept a risky hand. He wins the roll and plays. He plays island and says go. I try to chalice for 1 but he bstorms into daze. eventually lots of my spells get countered and i cant race his dubs mongeese with my dubs ancient tomb.
Game 2: I keep a great hand I play turn 1 chalice and he FOW I had Force to but no blue cards. next turn i play trinishere when he dazes it i drew the blue card to FOW. he misses his third land drop twice I thought i was sure to win. I got an attack in with sea drake then he draws his third land he swords my drake so i play another. Once again swords made sea drake farm with jesus. I play efreet and to my suprise he has another sword. He has six land and plays his threshold men I play jugs to try and race him but he drew his last sword. I ran out of gas and he killed me with giant monsters.
