Round 1 vs. Bant Hexproof - Rematch with the guy from match 2 on 8/17. Game 1 I got out in front super fast with two Champion of the Parishes and two Mayor of Avabruck
Flips and overwhelmed his Invisible Stalker and Geist of Saint-Taft before they could do much. I had a Fiend Hunter in there somewhere too I think. Game 2 was similar with me out in front with Champions and a Mayor, but this time he got his Geist out a little earlier and enchanted with Ethereal Armor, Spectral Flight, and Rancor so I was in deep shit the next turn but was saved by playing two Burning-Tree Emmisarys into another Mayor and two Experiment Ones that pumped up my Champions for the win. 2-0
Round 2 vs. Izzet Delver/Burn - I've played this guy before, his deck is super fast and he usually takes first or at least top 4 at the shop. Game 1 he drew too many Think Twices so it allowed my humans to go to work and I was able to blink Kessig Malcontents with Cloudshift and Restoration Angel a few times for the win. Game 2 he flipped a Delver of Secrets
Flip early and was able to get a Guttersnipe on the field while holding me off with Shock and Azorius Charm to burn through to the win. Game 3 I got mana hosed and kept a hand I shouldn't have which left me with 9 or 10 lands but only two creatures by the time I died. 1-2
Round 3 vs. Selesnya Aggro - Game 1 I got out two Champions quick and pumped them with Silverblade Paladin and Kessig Malcontents before he could do much of anything. He played his Kalonian Hydra but I think he had to trade with my Silverblade. Game 2 was similar but he was able to slow things down a bit with two Loxodon Smiters, one on turn two before ramping into his Hydra. By the time he got his Hydra out though, I had two pumped up Champions, one paired with a Silverblade, a 3/3 Experiment One, and a Tajic, Blade of the Legion waiting to attack next turn. I blinked Kessig Malcontents twice to win after attacking a few times with the Champions and trading with Silverblade for one of the Smiters. 2-0
Record was 5-2 for an overall 2-1 finish, good enough for 4th place because my round 2 opponent took 1st. Shiny new Experiment One promo.
