  • First FNM 3-1-0(Missing a sphinx's and substituted with a 3rd Essence Scatter but I was able to trade for my 4th Sphinx's)

  • Second FNM 2-2-0 I made a few misplays and kept getting matched up with the winners bracket and the last guy I played cheated me. I will admit I played bad and from here it's time to get a lot of practice in.


  • Third FNM 4-0-0

Game 1: Rakdos Control 1-0-1

Match 1 started slow becuase we're both playing control and the first move was a Slaughter Games by him for naming AEtherling then he Rakdos Returned for 7 and I Sphinx'd for 6 and discarded lands. He killed all my planeswalkers I dropped with Dreadbore and Hero's Downfall but that exhausted him of all his instant speed removal and so I was able to kill him with an Azorius Keyrune with only 1 card left in my library (Yes it took 50 minutes to kill him with that Keyrune). Game 2 was much more tricky because he used Slaughter Games three times naming Elspeth, AEtherling, and Elixer so this was able to stop most of my wincons. I dissolved all his Rakdos Returns to protect my hand and as we started to go to turns with only 5 left on turn 4 I Domestication'd his Master of Cruelties and knocked him to 1 then passed back for turn 5 and it ended in a draw. He agrees that I would have won the next turn with Master of Cruelties no problem as I showed him a Syncopate to stop any kill spell he had coming.

Game 2: Selesnya Aggro 2-0

This game was against my friend who I joined me for FNM this week and I just blew his deck out of the water because he got lousy draws and kept having to mulligan. Gmae 1 I just Detention Sphere'd his two voices on turns 2 & 3. I wiped the board turn 4 and played Elspeth turn 6, he had no answer. Game 2 was sort of the same match but He got mana screwed and I detention sphere'd his 1 voice on turn 2. He was forced to play 3 Mistcutter Hydras for 1 because of the mana screw. I got out Elspeth and just stopped his damage from there at a little over half health.

Game 3: 5 Color Midrange 2-0

Match 1 he over extended a bit and I kept the board clear of huge threats like Archangel and Chromanticore with Detention Sphere's, Verdicts, Counterspells, and Pacifism. The biggest all-star in this match up was easily pacifism because for two I could stop any of his important threats like Chromanticore. This deck I was able to 1 for 1 and with and I had much more draw power so eventually he just ran out of steam and I didn't. Match two I got all the way down to 1 health and from there I countered his threats and board wiped him. I Sphinx'd back to a healthy 7 and from there won with AEtherling and Keyrune beatdown.

Game 4: Azorius Control 1-0-1

Match 1 I just outplayed the other guy as he wasted his 3 Elspeths early and I just sphered them. He played Kiora but I was able to blink AEtherling at this point during his upkeep and bash on my turn until I finally killed him. Match 2 went to time he got out AEtherling early but he knew my hand and bet on me not drawing a detention sphere after he tapped out and I drew a verdict and wiped his AEtherling. From here the game was just a stale mate until we went to turns and time was finally called.


Fourth FNM: 2-2-0 Golgari just seems to be the hardest match up with this deck and my luck I got matched up against it the first two rounds.
