Alright so here are the results from tonight's matchups. I am getting this deck ready for a super qualifier this coming sunday
Round 1: vs Temur homebrew 2-1
Game 1: I saw that he played a yavimaya coast and I thought alright is this a Bant Coco deck? Next turn he plays a mountain and I'm confused, then I realized it's a Temur deck, not sure what to expect, I just focused on playing my game and I won soundly by bringing in kolaghan.
Game 2: he sided against me, he came at me fast and began attacking, he played a stormchaser mage, didn't seem bothered by it, then he played a lambholt pacifist and then he played atarka's command, then he played arlinn and played a token and pumped with trample following turn. I languished him got everything off the board but didn't find my planeswalker removal in time.
Game 3: sided in dark petition and kalitas, removed everything he played got out kalitas, he attacked with a lambholt and he played atarka's command when I blocked it with kalitas, then on my turn dark dwellers, recast removal then kolaghan, then Chandra and win.
Match 2: vs b/w control 2-0
Game 1: no one was interacting with anyone past turn 2, I transgressed the mind took his removal away, I managed to get Nahiri out and I ultimated her and snagged kolaghan out. Won this one pretty easily.
Game 2: side in another transgress the mind, and dark petition. He mulled to six and then he scried but he decided to concede but I said why not mull again and try your luck. He did but he still decided to concede before we played. I didn't disagree, that's his call.
Match 3: vs g/w Tokens 0-2
Game 1: this game was very back and forth, when I misplayed miserably, I transgressed the mind took nissa away and I didn't write down what he had in hand, and when I cast a dark dwellers I saw that he had 5 mana open with 2 being white and a sylvan advocate on the board I also should have asked cards in hand and recast ruinous path instead of transgress the mind, I thought he had an Avacyn in hand and thought if I recast a ruinous path he'll flash her in and now I have a 4/4 flyer and me with no answer to it. So he eot secure the wastes, sacs all 5 creatures got out his ormendahl took a shot at my Chandra, then I topdeck anguished unmaking and got rid of it. But he managed to get gideon out he plussed him, dromoka's command removes my gdd and swings for game.
Game 2: sided in dark petition, virulent plague, infinite obliteration, never saw them, opened with 3 sweepers anguished unmaking and 2 lands and 2 transgress the mind, turn 1 smoldering marsh, turn 2 battlefield forge, transgress, hit Gideon. Turn 3 transgress again, hit another Gideon, he plays stuff I wipe them turn 4, kept on removing stuff, he returns nissa with a den pro, he secured the wastes, then then played nissa and minus her swings for like 8. Sweep everything again but still he is resilient. This deck is tough and not easy to beat.
Match 4: vs cryptolith company 2-0
Game 1: This poor girl is mana starved the whole night but either way I know how to take this deck apart with or without the mana screw. I remove anything that hit the board get Nahiri out, I then had a Chandra and kolaghan in hand, not fully understanding what this deck was capable of I cast Chandra and plus her she casts coco and blocked the elementals and let's goblin dark dwellers get through, on next turn I cast kolaghan and plus Chandra and swing with dark dwellers kolaghan and the elementals and win.
Game 2: side in hallowed moonlight and another transgress the mind as well as dark petition and infinite obliteration, I then exile her zulaport cutthroat with declaration in stone and then she played Eldrazi displacer and next turn I destroyed it, she was getting mana screwed but she got back into things I was a bit worried but I snagged my kolaghan with Nahiri swung and pick up, then next turn recast, prevents her from playing anything, so she started digging with duskwatch recruiter and dug THREE TIMES!!! I was worried because at this point in the game I only had one creature and she was at 6 life I'm at 11 life, I don't know what she was digging for, she was tapped out and pass the turn, it was game over, she was looking for a fleshbag marauder. But I had a kolaghan's command in my hand.
