Entered a casual Tribal Tournament at my college. 4 rounds, Swiss style.
Round 1: Scarecrows vs. W/G Angels
-Game 1: Victory
Excessive reliance on City of Brass coupled with a lone Sublime Archangel left me with 10 life before Reaper King hit the board and won me the game.
-Game 2: Victory
Once again, over-use of CoB led to a hefty price. Reaper King led me to victory after 2 games of Congregate mitigating my damage.
Round 2: Scarecrows vs. Myr
-Game 1: Victory
Myr mana drought led to a quick and decisive win.
-Game 2: Victory
A second mana drought cost my opponent the game and match rather quickly. Optimal targets for RK's ETB effect meant no escape from the inevitable end.
Round 3: Scarecrows vs. KTK U/R Humans
-Game 1: Defeat
In what seemed like a cruel twist of fate, a mana drought left me high and dry while multiple uses of Singing Bell Strike and Disciple of the Hidden Way got around my only defenses.
-Game 2: Defeat
A second mana drought officially cost me my streak with once again, SBS and DHW crushing what little defense I could mount.
Sided in 1x Forest and Island for 2x Grim Poppet for the remainder of the tournament.
Round 4: Scarecrows vs. R/G Boars
-Game 1: Victory
Feeling a little rocky after Round 3, I was able to fix my mana issues and after a hard fight, claimed victory over the swine in round 1
-Game 2: Victory
Still a little nervous about my mana, I was relieved when I was able to drop an early Descendants' Path. Despite being forced to hard cast RK (Not really that hard) I picked up a quick and decisive victory over the Boars.
Final Result: 4th place
Came in 4th place due to my only loss being an 0/2 sweep and lost out to 1st place Elf-Drazi, 2nd place LRW Merfolk, and 3rd place Slivers.
