3-1 in FNM — Oct. 25, 2013

Edit

The deck played out very well in my opinion. Here are my matches in detail:

First round: won 2-0 against B/W midrange.

Very intense matchup. AEtherling won both games for me. I don't know how. But I survided an Obzedat, Ghost Council and a Whip of Erebos in both games.

Second Round: Lost 2-1 againt G/W Aggro

Lost game 1 very quickly. Game two I was in control throughout the entire matchup, Celestial Flare and AEtherling won it for me. Game 3 I made a mistake and played Supreme Verdict while a monstrous Fleecemane Lion was in play. then he Unflinching Courage the Lion and it was pretty much game over.

Third Round: won 2-1 against G/B aggro.

Creature-heavy deck. Won game 1 thanks to supreme verdicts and Jace. Game two I was killed by 3 Rakdos Cackler and 3 Experiment One, and of course, I didn't get any Supreme Verdict. Game 3 was very intense, but 3 Detention Sphere and Elspeth, Sun's Champion did the job.

Fourth Round: Won Against Boros Aggro 2-0.

Very interesting deck, he was playing both Heliod, God of the Sun and Purphoros, God of the Forge. He also had Assemble the Legion, which was working perfectly with the Purphoros. But I managed to survive both games with Detention Sphere and Supreme Verdict.

Overall, the deck played great. I'm not sure if I want to make any changes at this point.
