Asthereal's scores for round uh now what?
1. Asthereal (TO): Sheltered Valley, Island, Energy Field, Energy Field
That's me. I did not think this round through at all. Which will show in the results.
2. dte: Pox, Swamp, Dark Ritual, Nether spirit
Pox makes my cards go away. 0-6
3. PJim: City of Traitors, Steel Overseer, Phyrexian Revoker, Ratchet Bomb
Luckily, Ratchet Bomb taking out Energy Field will also kill both your guys. So second Field wins it here. 6-0
4. alphastryk: The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale, Radiant Fountain, Mishra's Factory, Maze of Ith
Valley over Fountain would have netted you draws here, but my perpetual life gain beats your one-shot. 6-0
5. Reeplcheep: Peat Bog , Sheltered Valley, nether spirit , Nether spirit
Spirits can't beat Field, but both of us having Valley means we actually draw in a round where the round rule should prevent draws. 2-2
6. Wrath of Pie: Bayou, Crashing Footfalls, Evil Presence, Duress
You Presence Valley as soon as I drop it, so I don't gain life. You only Duress after I cast my first Energy Field, which will take out both Fields. I didn't expect much discard, so I ran this risk consciously. 0-6
7. jhhdk: Karakas, Porcelain Legionnaire, Aether vial, Mangara of Corondor
Mangara takes my first, but also my second Field. Afterwards you just kill me. 0-6
8. silkster: Gemstone Mine, Duress, Crashing Footfalls, Restore Balance
Balance kills Energy Field as well as my lands and hand. 0-6
9. Tylert: Sinkhole, The tabernacle at pendrell vale, Urborg, tomb of yawgmoth, Inkmoth nexus
Sinkhole kills Field as well as Valley, and I can't cast second Field after. 0-6
10. GoblinSmashmaster: Chancellor of the Dross, Unmask, Unmask, Force of Despair
Valley wins it by itself. 6-0
11. Serguei: Peat Bog, Sheltered Valley, Smallpox, Nether Spirit
More Poxies. This is probably what I should have played over my own deck. 0-6
12. H: Swamp, Witch's Oven, Witch's Oven, Cauldron Familiar
Losing life beats Field. 0-6
13. FTW: Radiant Fountain, Tel-Jilad Stylus, Dimir Aqueduct, Reality Acid
Acid slowly takes out my board, staring with Valley so you actually win the race. 0-6
14. maxx!: Peat Bog, Sheltered Valley, Smallpox, Firemane Angel
You gain more life, but Valley makes me not die to the round rule, and you don't have a wincon yourself, so we draw both? 2-2
Total: 22 points

WW 6pts -> 30pts
6. Wrath of Pie: Bayou, Crashing Footfalls, Evil Presence, Duress
I cannot do nothing
LL 0pt -> 30pts
7. jhhdk: Karakas, Porcelain Legionnaire, Aether vial, Mangara of Corondor
I will be able to eat your land and a creature by discarding it with smallpox. You will have vial in play and a creature but you will not beat spirit and Valley
WW 6pts -> 36pts
8. silkster: Gemstone Mine, Duress, Crashing Footfalls, Restore Balance
I cannot do nothing, I am totally crushed
LL 0pt -> 36pts
9. Tylert: Sinkhole, The tabernacle at pendrell vale, Urborg, tomb of yawgmoth, Inkmoth nexus
OTP I start with peat bog.
At your turn, you can play a land. If you do, I will smallpox and you will loose the land in play and card in hand. You will not be able to manage both spirit and valley with your 2 remaining cards.
If you do not, I will play vally t2 and beat you with the rule.
OTD you will be to sinkhole my peatbog before I play anything
WL 3pts -> 39pts
10. GoblinSmashmaster: Chancellor of the Dross, Unmask, Unmask, Force of Despair

13. FTW: Radiant Fountain, Tel-Jilad Stylus, Dimir Aqueduct, Reality Acid
Smallpox wins by itself here
WW 6pts -> 54pts
14. maxx!: Peat Bog, Sheltered Valley, Smallpox, Firemane Angel
You cannot go with smallPox here. Otherwise I discard neitherspirit and I will race you.
I will play Neither spirit and beat you to death.
WW 6pts -> 60pts
Actually, the more I think about it its likely that Sheltered Valley would always gain at least the 2 life Radiant Fountain does even if it does stop working (and most of the time gaining 1 is enough anyway), so Valley was likely the right land to play, and would have gotten me at least 17 more points at a quick glance.

Reeplcheeps scores for round typo. Submitted 2 spirits instead of smallpox spirit like an idiot, but it changes things so lets see how this does. I felt this round was basically a rehash of the lifegain one, so just stole the best performing deck and changed the threats slightly. Don’t submit on your phone where you can’t see the whole text box kids.
5. Reeplcheep: Peat Bog , Sheltered Valley, nether spirit , Nether spirit
1. Asthereal (TO): Sheltered Valley, Island, Energy Field, Energy Field
Smallpox would have won this one. DD 2-2.
2. dte: Pox, Swamp, Dark Ritual, Nether spirit
I decided beating Sphere and the mirror was more important than beating t2 combo. WW 6-0
3. PJim: City of Traitors, Steel Overseer, Phyrexian Revoker, Ratchet Bomb
This one too. LL 0-6
4. alphastryk: The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale, Radiant Fountain, Mishra's Factory, Maze of Ith
Radiant mirror. DD 2-2
misread. WW 6-0
6. Wrath of Pie: Bayou, Crashing Footfalls, Evil Presence, Duress
Evil presence. LL 0-6
7. jhhdk: Karakas, Porcelain Legionnaire, Aether vial, Mangara of Corondor
Another one where Sergei reading his submission is OP. 0-6.
8. silkster: Gemstone Mine, Duress, Crashing Footfalls, Restore Balance
On the play don’t you lose to 4 islands???? LW 3-3, the rarest of scores.
Misread again LL 0-6
9. Tylert: Sinkhole, The tabernacle at pendrell vale, Urborg, tomb of yawgmoth, Inkmoth nexus
Defer to Tylert 3-3
10. GoblinSmashmaster: Chancellor of the Dross, Unmask, Unmask, Force of Despair
Valley wins it by itself. 6-0
11. Serguei: Peat Bog, Sheltered Valley, Smallpox, Nether Spirit
No typos op. LL 0-6
12. H: Swamp, Witch's Oven, Witch's Oven, Cauldron Familiar
No pox means you can win the race. 0-6.
13. FTW: Radiant Fountain, Tel-Jilad Stylus, Dimir Aqueduct, Reality Acid
Defer to FTW LL 0-6
14. maxx!: Peat Bog, Sheltered Valley, Smallpox, Firemane Angel
I win the race. WW 6-0
Grey ogre tribal scores a surprising 31/78, only 29 less points than serguei
Ok radiant not sheltered gives me wins vs alpha.
I have tried to make gemstone caverns work in so many brews I misread silksters entry.
I'm missing results for round 14 from maxx! and H, but the standings below should be correct, assuming their opponents calculated the matches correctly, and assuming my estimation of their head-to-head is good.
(3-3, as OTD H doesn't get the combo going because of Smallpox, but OTP he can attack and combo once each turn, which adds up to 3 damage per turn against 2 life gain.)
Preliminary results for round 14:
1. Serguei: 60 - 4,6
2. Wrath of Pie: 57 - 4,4
3. silkster: 51 - 3,9
4. FTW: 47 - 3,6
5. alphastryk: 39 - 3
5. jhhdk: 39 - 3
7. PJim: 36 - 2,8
7. GoblinSmashmaster: 36 - 2,8
9. dte: 33 - 2,5
9. Tylert: 33 - 2,5
9. H: 33 - 2,5
12. Reeplcheep: 29 - 2,2
13. maxx!: 25 - 1,9
14. Asthereal (TO): 22 - 1,7
Which would lead to these standings in the season, with only the final round to go:
1. dte: 56,3
2. FTW: 50,2
3. Tylert: 48,8
4. Wrath of Pie: 46,6
4. Serguei: 46,6
6. maxx!: 42,5
7. silkster: 40,6
8. Asthereal (TO): 37,2
9. Reeplcheep: 36,4
10. H: 33,9
11. GoblinSmashmaster: 32,6
12. jhhdk: 25
13. alphastryk: 23,1
14. PJim: 13,2
So normally, we would be congratulating dte on the win in the season, but this time not so, as there's 4 extra season points to be gained in the final round.
Somewhow, after 14 rounds, Wrath and Serguei managed to be completely tied for 4th place in the season.
PJim got the hang of this immediately. These results extrapolated to the full season would have gotten close to 4th place, so there's a force to be reckoned with for next season for sure.

Final round time!
I'll give you guys a day extra, as I was gone for the weekend and I'm only now starting this up.
THE FINAL OF SEASON 9: DEVIANT LEGACY - PART 2 has started.
This round we play Unique: Each player gets 1 additional season point in this round for each card in their deck that no other player submitted this round.
I have PM'ed myself my deck for round 15, so you can start sending me your decks.
DEADLINE: Thursday the 29th of April at 11:00AM Central European Time.
(That's my time zone. Pacific Time it'll probably be something like Wednesday night a bit past midnight, so keep that in mind.)
PLEASE NOTE:
The way you send your deck to me matters. Please send it in the way described below, so it doesn't cost me an hour of editing before I can post all the decks.
Please send your deck as follows: Urborg, Snow-Covered Swamp, Terror, Black Knight.
So with card tags around each card, and not above eachother, and with your Username and 4CB S09R15 in the topic.
Don't forget to keep an eye on the banned list. You'll find it in the second post of the thread, or in our Google Spreadsheet.
After the deadline has passed, I will post all decks on the forum here, and you can start puzzling out your scores.
If you have any questions, please read the first two posts of this thread first. If you can't find the answer there, drop a message here. We'll answer a.s.a.p.
Also, if you've been lurking on this thread and looking to join, you can step in anytime, any round. That's no problem at all. Just send me your deck before the deadline, and I'll add you to the competition.

If you have two cards with the same name that are unplayed by others, do you get 2 points or 1?
As long as a card you play is not played by others, you score 1 point. So if 2 of the same card could be worth two points!
I think we should definitely clarify whether multiples in your own deck each count. I had assumed they did not, as they would not be Unique

Oh dang. I didn't realize we had an extra day this time. I wonder if I want to change anything? It usually goes badly for me when I do...
While we have a moment: are we going to take a week off, or jump right into the next deviant season? (Or interject some kind of bannathon? I vote creatures+lands for every card's legality to be super obvious.) I'm good for any of those.
