Played TES at my local weekly tournament tonight. Only 8 players, so 3 rounds.
Round 1 vs. Combo Elves
Game 1: I Ponder on my turn and he plays a Quirion Ranger. Turn 2 I combo off. He mentions Grapeshot so rather than go for the quick Tendrils kill I go for the Grapeshot kill for 24. Could have done more, but he didn't deserve it.
-No SB changes.
Game 2: He opens with Birchlore Ranger. He doesn't get another turn since I have the turn 1 Ad Nauseum and Tendrils him with a Storm count of 16.
1-0; 2-0 games
Round 2 vs Maverick
He wins the roll.
Game 1: He GSZ for Arbor. My turn 1 I EtW for 10 Goblins. His turn 2 Terravore (1/1) chump blocks a Goblin and he dies the following turn.
-No SB changes.
Game 2: He has turn 1 Hierarch, I have 10 Goblins again. He never draws his boarded cards (Ratchet Bomb &/or Crawlspace).
2-0; 4-0
Round 3 vs Junk
ID since he's a friend. We play it out anyways though.
Game 1: I win the roll and make 16 Goblins turn 1.
-No SB changes.
Game 2: He mulligans to try to find a Chalice of the Void. Goes all the way down to 1 with no luck. I keep a hand that looked better than it really was (kept thinking my Duress was Ad Nauseum for some reason). No lands, so if he did get Chalice I woulda been screwed. I Chant/Silence him the next 3 turns (when he finally has lands, using Mox imprinted with Chant) just in case he drew something. I finally get Ad Nauseum and proceed to flip the other AdN, Tendrils, bunch of 1cc spells and no artifact mana. I stop at 2 because I still have most of my tutors in the deck. I decide to play a land and Brainstorm in hopes of going off next turn instead. Brainstorm finds me 2x Mox and a LED. I proceed to Tendrils him.
2-0-1 in Rounds, 6-0 in games ending up in 1st overall.
