maxx!: Forest, Fieldmist Borderpost, Bant Sureblade, Mental Misstep
1. Asthereal (TO): Swamp, Strip Mine, Fourth Bridge Prowler, Plagued Rusalka
I dodge Strip Mine and can Misstep one of your threats. 6-0
2. Reeplcheep: Plains, Swamp, Cabal Therapy, Sacred Cat
OTP I can play my guy before you flashback Therapy. OTD I can't. 3-3
3. dte: Laboratory Maniac, Mortuary Mire, Izzet Boilerworks, Irrigation Ditch
Lab man is uncommon ????????? 0-6
4. alphastryk: Bazaar of Baghdad, Basking Rootwalla, Basking Rootwalla, Basking Rootwalla
I can Misstep one Rootwalla and beat the others easily in combat. Math below but I should win this race. 6-0
5. Wrath of Pie: Island, Aether Vial, Blitz Leech, Ponyback Brigade
Misstep Aether Vial. 6-0
6. H: Swamp, Swamp, Drainpipe Vermin, The Rack
Misstep The Rack. 6-0
7. GoblinSmashmaster: Mountain, Rite of Flame, Rite of Flame, Empty the Warrens
Misstep Rite of Flame. 6-0
8. maxx!: Forest, Fieldmist Borderpost, Bant Sureblade, Mental Misstep
This is me :]
9. Tylert: Chronomaton, Wretched banquet, Swamp, Diregraf ghoul
Uh I don't think this is legal? Chronomaton is fast enough to stop my attacker and then grow forever and kill me, so I can't let it resolve. That leads to a staring contest where nobody can play a creature due to Wretched Banquet. 2-2 if this deck is legal
10. Silkster: Swamp, Darksteel Citadel, Corrupted Zendikon, The Rack
I can Misstep the Rack, but I can't beat an indestructible 3/3. OTP I can get in 1 attack while your lands are tapped, but then it's 17 to 18 (due to Misstep) so I still lose the race. 0-6
11. FTW: Mountain, Ghitu Lavarunner, Mental Misstep, Thunderclap
Thunderclap always kills my guy, and Missteps trade when I try to counter your guy. 0-6
6+3+0+6+6+6+6+2+0+0 = 35 ? (or maybe 39 if I actually get 6 from Tylert)
Congrats to dte for both realizing that Lab Man was legal and finding the perfect deck to put him in. Nice work

vs alphastryk
OTD
a: 3x Rootwalla, 1 gets countered (m=18)
m: Borderpost
a: Attack (m=16)
m: Sureblade
You can't attack into my guy, and you can't profitably block. You need 8 more attacks, and I only need 7
