well i wish i could have been there for the first time but my job wouldn't permit, so i had to give the other guy a buy but my first game was against a super expensive blue black control/removal deck that leads to Ugin, i ended up losing both matches but by very slim margins :) i ate his planewalkers apart with flipping over creatures and attacking for 4/4 and with trails of mystery was awesome, my second match was against a Black green white deck and was also filled with planeswalkers and had lots of control and removal stuff, but with my death mistraptors always resurrecting it makes it even more devastating when i flip over Sagu mauler or Hooded hydra that was manifested for only 2G and you get to put more counter on O_o when you just pay the manifest and X so you get the 5+ counters for just flipping it over and the extra X you have so its AMAZING early game with only have 3 mana and you use it on Cloudform, if you get the Forest to give you the 2G you need for the Hydra that would mean you have 2 colorless to use for your X cost :) so you get +2 on top of the initial flipping of of the card for only 2 giving you +5 at a total of 7 1+1 counters that if the creatures is killed 7 1+1 snakes enter the battlefield !! i had a great none the less and i ended up winning against him 2-0 then my second game (third in the tourney but i missed the first game) i played a mono Black and based on devotion and whip of erebos, i ended up using the DeathMist Raptors great along with whisperwood going super strong i had 4 face down manifests that were actual creatures all my lands were gone from Trails and infinitely returning the Raptors to kill the attackers was FUN he def used lots of indirect damage stuff that reallly reallllly hurt and Gained life like crazy! but once was actual flipping creatures over and using all the options at your disposal it was easy to snuff out all of the noise and only take the little damage while making them scared for the next turn because of the always impending doom that Lies beneath :) the Last game was awesome as well a black green deck that used a little bit of removal with waste not and lots of Gnarly black creatures and some new exploit creatures was making the games long, but full board presence the entire time, i never even had whisper wood elemental out and i was just using easy morph costs along with so many land gathering triggers thinning out the library Worked Amazing! it was so much easier to get all easy manifesters or a nice Cloudform to really just take it the next level! bring in the cloud form Sagu Mauler or Hydra! ...... all by turn 5! WoooOooooo it can be a nice way to turn the tides of big push from an enemy and really give them an immediate threat as well as removing their creatures all on there Turn :) pass turn Poof your flying mauler may SWING away and i also delt with many dragons there were slightly annoying but with a Kheru SPellsnatcher or Two! and hot dang how about that you expensive card! your all mine for one TURN! take that bad ass deck dude!! so i won 3 and lost 1 and i never got to play my first one but IT worked great!!

i should probably take out my AVENs and put more cloud forms or Negate, as well as taking out my secret plans along with maybe 1 obscuring AETHER , maybe those will get negate as X3 and get more cloudforms from the Avens,
