FNM 3-1 —June 7, 2014
Match one was a quick one against Dega aggro. The guy couldn't hit his land drops and my tempo plays kept him beaten down. Both games ended in about 5 turns to a Brimaz, a Smiter, and an Unflinching Courage. Finished up 2-0.
Match two was against a kid who had just started Magic. Went easy on him and his Dimir aggro deck. 2-0 easily, then I helped him work on his deck. It was a really fun match.
Match three was Mono-Blue Devotion with Dakra Mystic ruining my draws. Game one I should have mulliganed to 6, kept the hand greedily, and lost to a second Master of Waves after exiling one with Banishing Light. Game two I brought in Gainsay and Dissolve and kept the game going for a considerable amount of time, but eventually lost when he tapped down my Loxodon Smiter with Tidebinder Mage and I just couldn't land a relevant creature to deal with his third Master of Waves
to hit the field that game. Finished the match 0-2 with a close second game.
Match four was against Golgari constellation/dredge. Guy couldn't hit any of his pump spells and I beat him out 2-0.
