Legacy Tournament in Elmira —June 16, 2012
I went 2-3.
1) Won against a dredge deck 2:1. Bojuka Bog and Scavenging ooze were my ways to shut down the dredge.
2) Played against a artifact heavy white deck. Won 2:1
3) Played against an artifact deck that locked down my land and used Phyrexian Revoker to keep me from sacrificing Qasali Pridemage. Boarded in Revoke Existence, but I didn't see them in the second two games.
4) Played against a cascade combo deck leading into Hypergenesis to play Emrakul, the Aeon's Torn, and Progenitus. I lost 1:2 just because he couldn't pull the combo on one of the games.
5) Lost 0:2 to a Delver Tempo with Goblin Guide. Price of Progress killed me one game and the other, I couldn't get a creature to stick and then I got land flooded.
I never cast Sigarda. If I had her, I didn't have the mana. I used Surgical Extraction quite often to learn decks on game 1 and then to know what was in hand coming at me. I am quite happy with putting it in even though I cast with life most of the time.
