So last Saturday I went 3-0, and came in first at my local Game Day. Here were the matchups:
Round 1:
2-0 vs. Mardu Vampires
1st game went strong for my opponent at first, had a large field of creatures all tapped and i was left at 4, him at 8 and all i had was a Sky Skiff and a Needle Spires. topdecked a Built to Smash though, put it on my spire and hit for game.
2nd game he was left at 2 mana until around turn 6, and it came too late. easy win.
Round 2:
2-1 vs. Esper midrange
The opponents deck was very.. interesting. Lupine Prototype crewed all of his vehicles(mainly Cultivator's Caravan) and Gonti, Lord of Luxury stole a few of my better cards. Game 1 I lost due to a lack of powerful creatures to block effectively and he overpowered me with Noxious Gearhulk.
Game 2 I managed to pull a win out with two Servo Exhibition, a Sky Skiff and a Chief of the Foundry. Skysovereign, Consul Flagship Is what really pulled my through in the end though.
Game 3 i was losing until the very end due to his counters, but i Hijacked his Noxious Gearhulk, Built to Smashed it twice and swung for the game.
Round 3:
2-1 vs. naya Brisela
My opponent based his deck around using Tireless Tracker to draw and get big, and Brisela, Voice of Nightmares
Meld
Meld to finish the job. Game 1 I decleration in stoned his Gisela, the Broken Blade
Meld and overpowered his tracker for an easy win.
Game 2 I lost due to a 9/8 tracker and decleration in stone killing all of my defenses.
Game 3 neither of us had good hands, but he was pulling ahead and stopped all of my vehicles with Eldrazi Displacer after I got him down to 4. I was left at 3 and topdecked a Burn from Within for the win.
All in all it was a pretty good night, especially since I avoided my worst matchup which a friend of mine was playing. I'm still looking to improve the deck though, so any more suggestions or new tech would be appreciated!
