Tournament Report.
R1: Paired vs my friend on GB Constellation that played See the Unwritten and Doomwakes etc.
G1: I cant draw my 5th land and he continually beats me to with brain maggots and Elvish Mystics. I eventually stabilize after hitting the 5th land and wiping him at 5 life. Proceed to counter relevant threats and win with Pearl Lake Ancient
G2: Get down to 2 Life from Maggot/Mystic Beats until I managed to Jace's Ingenuity EOT into untap Wrath and control the board from there.
Win 2-0
Games: 2-0, Matches 1-0
R2: Paired vs Abzan
G1: we trade spells and I counter most of his threats while he tosses all his removal at my Pearl Lake which eventually gets me there. I win Game 1 with 2 cards left in my deck.
G2: Fleecemane Lion too strong for me.
G3: we start G3 with 6 minutes on the clock. Ended up drawing the match after I keep wrathing his board and banishing his planeswalkers.
Games: 3-1 Matches: 1-0-1
R3: Paired vs UW EnsoulBlade
We get deckchecked and unfortunately I had forgot to deboard that 1 extra Aetherspouts and I receive a Gameloss.
G2: Stabilize with a Wrath and banishing light on ensoul on a darksteel. Win with Elspeth Tokens
G3: Stabilize after Erasing his T2 Ensoul and Devouring lighting another ensoul on citadel. Win with Elspeth Tokens
Games: 5-2 (Including Game Loss) Matches: 2-0-1
R4: UB Control
I figured this MU was a bad one but it turned out pretty well.
G1: :Land Go for a long time until I finally managed to stick an Elspeth and he couldnt draw a vault or Downfall. He had previously burned 3 downfalls trying to kill Pearl Lake which was fine with me. Elspeth Ultimate gets me there
G2: We Draw go until he tried to resolve a Stain the Mind where I win the counter war. We ended up racing with 3 Elspeth Soldiers vs his Prognostic Sphinx. We're both dead in 2 swings and he attempts to accelerate his clock through casting another Prog Sphinx which walks right into my Nullify which was dead all game. He attempts to Negate it, leaving him with 0 cards in hand and I Dig Through Time to find a Pearl Lake and Disdainful Stroke to win the game with a Pearl Lake Swing.
Games: 7-2 Matches: 3-0-1
R5: Intentional Draw with UB Control into Top 8.
We ended up splitting the top 8 but played for bragging rights.
Quarterfinals: Paired Vs Ivan Jen and his updated Heroic Combo.....
G1: I'm on the play and I cant draw more then 3 lands and die to Ascendency. It didnt help that I drew 1 island, 1 Plains and 1 Radiant Fountain while holding 1 Devouring Light and 2 Dissolves.
G2: I flood out and see a total of 6 Nonland spells and die to his ascendency token swarm.
Final: Games 7-4, Matches: 3-1-2
