    'He had 1 card in hand, and stifled my Food Chain trigger to buy him a turn.'

    I hope this didn't happen, because I don't believe you can actually do that.

    Correct. Food Chain's activated ability is a mana ability (it adds mana to your mana pool and doesn't have any targets) and therefore can't be Stifled.

    After I reveal my Pithing Needle, I ask him plainly "I can call a Judge over, but I'll just ask you. Does naming Vampire Hexmage with Pithing Needle stop you from using his ability?". Now you see, I knew that it was effective, I just wanted to judge his reaction. He needs to work on his poker face. Not only did it work, it almost seemed like he was encouraging it! So I cast Pithing Needle naming Thespian's Stage. I watch his face sink as he untaps and plays a Thespian Stage from his hand. I win with Griffins and Deathrite Shaman.

    I'm not saying it's the easiest deck to play, but the plan is so linear that I could probably get white girl wasted and still beat people with the deck.

    Decent run . . . but how did you and Robin do in the Sealed Two-Headed Giant event?

    In addition to the Stifle gaffe you also can't use Misdirection on Searing Blaze (which you did in round 9) because Searing Blaze is a spell with 2 targets

    Searing Blaze deals 1 damage to target player and 1 damage to target creature that player controls.

    Landfall — If you had a land enter the battlefield under your control this turn, Searing Blaze deals 3 damage to that player and 3 damage to that creature instead.
    You may exile a blue card from your hand rather than pay Misdirection's mana cost.

    Change the target of target spell with a single target.
