derStefan82 (4C-Oath) vs Teko (Elves!) 2:0

1. Game I got hand with Oath of Druids, Regrowth and good mana, he got much pressure with elves, mana elves, lords but fast Progenitus and afterwards Empyrial Archangel was faster. I had my Gaeas Blessing during finding Progenitus so second search there was only Angel in deck and I went down from 90 to 4 cards.....

2. Game he had a fast start as well with few elves and Mutavault brought me down to 11 life, he had wasteland for my first round Underground Sea which color screwed me a bit but I hand 2. turn green mana tapped (think cycle land) 3. turn Crop Rotation for Tabernacle which I needed hadly (and which helped me not to loose). Afterwards I had enough time to go into Natural Order for Progenitus.

Thanks for games.

[Nastaboi]

Nastaboi Hypergenesis vs. Noviomagus Rg Beatz

2 - 0

I won the roll and had T2 Demonic Dread, but had to wait another turn for him to get a creature into battlefield. I put down DSC and Thraximundar. He put down Magus of the Moon and scooped it up.

I had 2nd turn Demonic Dread again. This time I killed my lands with Terastodon and his lands with Realm Razer. He put down Magus of the Moon and scooped it up.

Goblin Piledriver(Domain(Alara)-aggro)       vs      seveneyes(Bant)
2:0

Sturmgott told me that in his oppinion a Domain Deck plays all 5 basic Lands regulary. So the name for this deck should be better Alara-aggro, 23 cards are from this edition. So it's a good theme for this composition of cards.

Game1:Goblin Piledriver is beginning. Seveneyes and GP taking a mulligan
T1:                                                -- Llanowar Elves
T2: Lightning Bolt(Elves)           -- Mistral Charger
T3: Dark Confidant                    -- Kitchen Finks
T4:  Oblivion Ring(Finks)          --  Grafted Wargear
T5: Rhox War Monk                  --  Yavimaya Hollow + Noble Hierach
T6: Baneslayer Angel               --
T7: Garruk Wildspeaker          --   ...

I took down Kitchen Finks with Oblivion Ring, which allowed me to attack with Confidant and not being beated down with it. On his next Turn he plays Grafted Wargear to his Mistral Charger and my life suddenly falling down. Rhox War Monk and Baneslayer Angel  saved me from losing(was near defeat) and won the game for me.


Game2: seveneyes is beginning
T1: Treetop Village               -- Arbor Elf
T2: Mistral Charger               -- Man-o'-War(Charger)
T3: Rhox War Monk              --  Bloodbraid Elf(Tribal Flames(Rhox))
T4: Yavimaya Hollow + Mistral Charger  --  Sword of Fire and Ice
T5:  Horizon Canopy + Llanowar Elves  + Path to Exile(Man-o'-War) --  Sarkhan Vol
T6: Ravages of War             --
T7:   ...

My Bloodbraid Elf cascaded into Tribal Flames and shoot down seveneyes's Rhox War Monk. With Sword of Fire and Ice and Sarkhan VolI brought him into the red zone. He answered with Ravages of War leaving me with no mana(not the best side of Arbor Elf). Sarkhan Vol's Ultimate ended the game.

I won the roll and had T2 Dread Return... He put down Magus of the Moon and scooped it up.

I had 2nd turn Dread Return again. ...He put down Magus of the Moon and scooped it up.

I recommend we unban Dread Return. It seems to fix the aggro problem nicely.

[Tabris]

Dread Return? errr?

Lol - he meant demonic dread obv 

[Nastaboi]

LOL @ me, fixed.

As a random fact, Hypergenesis was the last card in my library in the second game.

[coldcrow]

coldcrow (R/w/u-AggroStax) 2 : 0 Tabris (UG-AggroControl)

This time I got my revenge for the perfect draws of my opponents in the last rounds.

Game 1: I get down some mana artifacts,lay a blood moon (didn't do much at that point) helix his scryb ranger in response to a rancor. Then I make my usual mistake by playing Wildfire far too early,, gambling for him to be screwed. Of course Tabris draws alot of forests, but has no island in play. A grafted wargear + troll ascetic blank my swords and threaten to end the game in a few turns, yet I draw Karn like a champ and stall him long enough. Smokestack does its job and he scoops with an empty board.

Game 2: I am excited to fan open a decent hand with one manastone, boom/bust, ajani. His first play is a Predator which becomes helixed by Ajani. Serendib Efreet follows, Ajani keeps one of his 2 islands tapped for one round and I destroy the other. Of course tabris floats blue and as dumb as I am I forget to switch phases, so my Trinket mage runs into stifle .
On the top side Tabris is out of counters so I can play a Metalworker , more mana artifacts and Duplicant. Shortly after he concedes to my overwhelming board.

[Mythrandir]

Mythrandir 5CC VZ Tabris UG midrange
2:1

Details may be a bit wrong, since we played 5 games (2 disconnected)

Game 1: He starts really aggresive vs my manabase: wasteland + stifle on my fetch. Luckily i drew into two more lands + tithe + eternal dragon, so it wasn't that bad. He played serendib + wargear but i played eladmari call/demonic tutor (can't recall) -> venser (i also had karakas). I played some spells that went into some counters, eventualy dropped jace 2.0 he dropped his own jace and eventually won with help from garruk, i believe.

Game 2: he starts low on lands but with werebear + scryb ranger which got him some nice mana accel. he played serendib. i played wog and searched for glen. game crashed

Game 2.1 Can't remember this one very good, but i think he played glen (all tapped out) i had answers for it. Session lost

game 2.2 He starts with pestermite + spellstutter + stifle on my fetch (i was color screw for R and U with only R and U cards in hand.... lol) so he played light sword and i couldn't hold the pressure, even played ajani and other stuff but the sword eventually killed me.

Game 3. he played some creatures i played some creatures but i was able to cast a damnation and keeping my factory to attack he played waketrasher i played FTK and went for damage race, he was able to hold a lot of turns with counters/stifle/boomerang effects and even treachery on my 3/3 token (had garruk and that time) eventually he was at 1 and i played fire/ice he remanded it, i played fetch for another R and killed him.

Nice games.

[Tabris]

Tabris  (UG-AggroControl)2 vs 0 Payron (5c Zoo?)


1st Game: We both are screwed and stucked on two mana but we got both a suspended Ancetral Vision 1st Turn. So we are waiting for resolving the Visions which dosent help Payron much bc he dont draw any lands with it. I draw three lands and was able to counter his mana leak for my vision. After that I was able to develop
my board and get enough buisness on the table. He was stucked on four lands one of them LoA but was not helping him bc of the lack of mana.

2nd Game: He started with a Mother of runes followed by a Trygon Predator which get counterd by me. I am able to get a pestermite on the board to tap his mother and casting threads of disloyality on her, but he got a counter. One turn later he is casting a shadowmage inflitrator but I ve just got my shackles online. He dont get much except for a Lightning Angel which get "answered" by my control magic. He chooses to path his own angel. I got his Ajani with pestermite + treetop village and bouncing his Rafiq which just got on the battlefield. So after that he draws a deed and get rid of my board. WE both dont have any cards left but I have a full hand of witness, B2B (which get rid of four of his lands) and a crafted wargear, which get me the win together with witness and tarmogyof.

gg´s.

Coldcrow WB Control vs. MrGreen 5C Domian Zoo 1:2

I dont remember the games because we played last week and I missed to report the games. I just can remember colcrow won the first game and the other ones were on my side.

[Tabris]

Tabris (UG-AggroControl) 2: vs -jFk- (WW) 0

1st Game: I´ll think he starts with a mother of runes. I play a noble hierarch which get answered by a Kjeldoran Javelineer. After that I play a Wall of Roots following by a maze of ith. He get a tangle wire and attacks with Savanah lions which gets blocked by my Spellstuter Sprite. He got also a Stoneforge Mystic which searched him a SoFI. I was able to cast a Vendilion Clique in response to the ability of the Mystic and getting his SoFI. Some turns later I can stabilize the board with goyf, a stolen Serra Avengre, Serendib Efreet and Shackles.

2nd Game: He got no one drop neither do I. Second turn he casts a Stoneforge Mystic which get countered by a Spell Snare. I ve got a Wall of blossoms. He plays a Goldmeadow Harrier. Some turns later he got a bone splitter + kitchen finks + exalted dude for one white. Hes attacking me quite some time. I ve got a Serendib Efreet, Coatl and Cloud of Faeries. Finally I ve got a SoFI and cleaning his board leaving my Efreet back to block his creatures. Somehowe he is able to beat me to one lifepoint (combined with the efreet) but I ve got his 2/2 First Strike Lifelink dude with threads and another guy with sower. So I was able to attack him for 13 and he concedes.
