I could watch Infect beat Miracles all day.
To be fair Philipp's draw wasn't shabby at all (sure, sitting on 3 lands in Game 2 is bad, but that also had to do with Top'ing for answers).Quote:

(It's 1 am here and I might missed some turns. Please excuse)
God dammit... I was almost interestedQuote:

From there Royce played all three rituals again to play Infernal Tutor and hit Dan with a lethal Tendrils of Agony for the Turn 1 kill.
LOL Kreygasm
Would have been nice to see Tom get this slow of a start against Philipp. :rolleyes:
Yep. But still, I'm not sure if that Crop play was a mistake; my plan would have been to force BBD to have the Force+Blue+Blast, althouhg I'm not at the GP, so make of that what you will.Quote:

The trip down was an odyssey for me anyway so I was done for the main event to care about grinding PWPs.
Hardly played delver or stoneblade at all, which made the event a learning experience playing matchups I had never seen. While having a very strong legacy pool that i can play almost any fair blue based deck, I also have little experience playing with or against non-blue decks. Also my metagaming caused me to board a lot more hate against those matchups and didn't run into any of them so sideboards were very awkward during the weekend. It also meant a lot of my matches were a bit more random.
Might be a bit off but I recall playing: Death & Taxes, Oops! All Spells, Junk Depths, Miracles, UR Delver once, Jeskai Stoneblade once, Merfolk, Belcher, Punishing Loam, Painter, and MUD. First time i played all of these decks in tournament except for Delver to be honest, so it was definitely a learning experience in most games.
I did have a lot of fun getting wrecked by Imperial Painter in the Super Sunday Series. The second game was incredibly grindy but watching it go off and all the decision trees alone made it worth getting 2-0'd in a totally deserved way. Hopefully you did well today man.
