Round One (vs. WB Aggro) (2-0): Game one I survived double Nightsky Mimic by eating food! I had enough pressure on board to kill on the backswing. Game two an endless stream of KPredators kept my board safe from edicts.

Round Two (vs. MonoBlack Control) (1-2): Game one I ground …

3-0, IIRC, but opponents were often mana screwed. Played against WB Aggro, UG Madness, and ???.

Round One (vs. WB Stuff) (0-2): Mulled to oblivion game one and got janked out by WB flying creatures with Edge of the Divinity. Game two I was wrecking my opponent (I two-for-one'd thrice) until I flooded. Lost to my own Entourage of Trest (last thing in hand, played …

Well shit...where to start? After M19 came and went, I toyed with adding Elvish Reclaimer into the deck for a more stable turn 1 play, and it helped quite a bit. But that got me thinking. Added white so I can Bring to Light a new strategy along with Knight …

PRE-TOURNAMENT CHANGES:
In an effort to increase threat density without increasing our chances of mana-screw, I am testing Elvish Aberration.

Elvish Aberration: 0 -> 3
Cave of Temptation -> Jund Panorama

Round One (vs. U …

PRE-TOURNAMENT CHANGES:
In an effort to make our mana a little more reliable (despite it being at the cost of explosiveness), we're switching from dorks to land ramp.
Arbor Elf x4 -> Search for Tomorrow x4

Round One (vs. UR Burn) (1-2): Game one stomped my opponent who stumbled on …

PRE-TOURNAMENT CHANGES:
We're switching to a lower-to-the-ground version, banking on the idea that Greater Sandwurm won't really be missed.

Round One (BYE)

Round One (BYE)

Round Two (vs. Monoblack Control) (2-1) - Obliterated on a mull-to-five game one. Slammed Blastoderms and Winding Ways to victory game two, with Wickerbough Elder taking down Pestilence. Game three featured a clutch Wickerbough Elder taking down Pestilence and a big Disintegrate for game. The trick is …

First game with Selenia and first 1v1 commander game with her. Setup my combo with Near-Death Experience, Cryptolith Fragment  ^Flip, and Selenia, Dark Angel to drop myself to 1 life on my upkeep. It went great!

Playing 1v1 versus a control deck, I was a bit concerned how this was going to go. Thankfully, with the Scarab God on the field and not getting removed, it went incredibly well. The Scarab God dealt a good amount of damage every turn, so that I did not need …

I played a 1v1 game versus this self-described "money deck" and it went rough. I got run over, Mind Controlled, and Jace the Mind Sculptor'ed to death.

Selenia really got her chance to shine here with me wiping the board several times to control threats and finally setting up a situation where I had 40 life, my opponents were at 24 and 7, and I had Near-Death Experience and Selenia, Dark Angel on the board. They were …

Round One (vs. Monoblack Control) (0-2) - First game was extremely close, but opponent Gray Merchanted his way out when I neglected to pass on an empty board to get rid of Pestilence, instead opting to establish lethal pressure with a Blastoderm. Second game I walked a Springbloom Druid into …
