Round 1 - played a Temur devotion based deck with an infinite mana combo (Voyaging Satyr or Karametra's Acolyte, Temur Ascendancy, and Temur Sabertooth). He got his combo on the first round with Polukranos, World Eater on the board and ate my board. I beat him the next two games with Disdainful Strokes and Polukranos to counter his key cards, and with some help from Prophet of Kruphix.
Round 2 - lost in 2 to and Abzan Control deck. I had decent starts, but he just drew too much removal, played around my counter magic, and seemed to always have an Elspeth, Sun's Champion or End Hostilities at the right time.
Round 3 - won in 2 against an Abzan Reanimator deck (I think). Never actually saw a whip, but he did have at least a couple Den Protectors.
Round 4 - won in 3 against mono-red. I stabilized on round 1 with help from Sylvan Caryatid, Courser of Kruphix, and Mastery of the Unseen. After that he had no chance. Round 2 he dropped like 3 or 4 creatures on turn 4 and overwhelmed me on turn 5. Round 3 I got a Nylea's Disciple early on and then Prophet of Kruphix allowed me to drop plenty of blockers.
Final Score 3-1-0
After the tournament I played a match with a friend just for fun. He was playing Esper control. I won the first game because he hardly had any decent interaction. Games 2 and 3 he just had an answer to everything I did. Though I did have him decently low on life before he stabilized in both game. Even with Disdainful Stroke and being aggressive, I'm not quite sure how to beat this matchup ... perhaps I should pickup some Fleecemane Lions for the sideboard.
