Vazdru vs Syras

[Vazdru]

few notes:

* my deck has a poor match-up vs tokens, i've lost already vs Maqi's Tokendeck on TNM
* t2 bitterblossom in both games and nice draws (g1 Sword L&S) on his side makes mu even worse 
* Syras expected I would play my Buried-Alive-deck which i played during last months on TNM Karlsruhe - i should have played RDW which was deck-choice no. 2 this time just to surprise him  , vs RDW T2 Bitterblossom isn't that good 
* like on PTQ Mannheim he kicked me out of a tournament 
* g1 i felt flooded + Liliana and Edict which were not very strong vs tokens obv. - on the other side unnecessary to mention Deathrite Shaman is quite nice vs. my deck
* i play lots of cantrips and have a low cc-average. As i was flooded g1 i decided to keep 2 lands + 1 spell in g2, gives me a chance to get one land in 6 cards which seems pretty fair - i was i fear to get flooded like in g1 keeping 3 lands + 1 spell / better choice maybe 3 lands + 2 spells and mull for 2 but i wanted to dig deeper through my deck because intuition supports combo-plan

[Syras]

Syras - Peeler 2:0

Tabris wird wohl in den nächsten Tagen das Video posten.

[Vazdru]

Syras vs Peeler (WBGToken vs RGBScapeshift)

[pyyhttu]

Syras (4c-goodstuff, I think) vs. pyyhttu (Emrakul-combo): 1 - 2

Tabris recorded the game, so I'll let him to tell the story. Spoiler alert: Lost first game to Thoughtseize, won second with top decked Emrakul, won third one with second turn Oath into Emrakul (triggered by Syras' first turn Birds).

[Vazdru]

so we have a final:

pyyhttu will play payron

if pyyhttu wins first best-of-three match, there will be another one

if payron wins first, he will be the champion

have a good one!

edit: the decks may differ between match 1 and match 2

Syras vs Pyyhttu

[Syras]

Some remarks from my side:

* My deck has a strong token Theme to support cards like Contamination (and Humility btw.) and that is also the reason I play Elspeth Tirel
* I did not play the Thoughtseize in g2 because I wanted to wait for him to play a tutor. Because it is often the case that combo decks like this have multiple tutors in hand. So if you wait for them to play the first one you can take the second. This leaves them with one combo part instead of one tutor. I'd like to hear opinions about this from others.
* I don't play Karakas. I cutted it just recently to fit another manland. Maybe that was a mistake. But I want to play 6 basics and I got a lot of answers to creatures already and Karakas only really shines against Emrakul. And as Tabris pointed out correctly...my deck has a number of answers against that card.
* Tabris was also right about my deck highly depending on drawing a discard spell. I will consider playing Castigate too

[Vazdru]

so we have a final:

pyyhttu will play payron

if pyyhttu wins first best-of-three match, there will be another one

if payron wins first, he will be the champion

have a good one!

edit: the decks may differ between match 1 and match 2

still looking forward to see the finals 

it would be nice to have the result within this week so i can invite the Top 8 based on the final ladder of 2012 for the championships
