Quick-hitting, Rakdos beat down. The twist that most people don't expect is Master of the Feast. Although against control, he may come out for Xathrid Slyblade 's. I don't want them drawing more cards than they already are usually, depending on the deck.

3rd Place overall.

Rd 1: Bye

Rd 2: 2-0 vs mono green aggro. - Game 1 MotF got it done and he had no answer. Game 2 I put enough pressure on early to force him to drop his Reclamation Sage early, then brought in MotF again and brought it home.

Rd 3: 1-2 vs azorius control. - Game 1 my hand wasn't the best after mulling to 6, but I thought I could get away with it, not knowing what he was playing. He got to verdict and it just dragged out until he eventually milled me out with Jace, MA. Game 2 was a beat down. Cackler on T1, Madcap on T2 and Armed on T3. He scooped after being taken to 3. Game 3 was very close, but 4 verdicts were able to handle my Xathrid Slyblades. I had him down to 2 for 3 turns and was top-decking. He told me he had no counters in hand afterwards, so a strike or sign in blood would have won it. Oh well.

Rd 4: 2-1 vs RGB mana ramp, new 6/6 Souls - This one was weird, it was mana dorks and the new Souls of __ 6/6 creatures. He had a little bit of blue control in there and sent my creatures back to the top of my deck in Game 1, but Game 2 and 3, I removed enough of his dorks to keep him stifled while MotF and the rest of my creatures evaded his Caryatids.

Rd 5: I was in 3rd, other guy was in 2nd. We agreed to draw and keep our spots.
