I went X-1-1 and wont in top 8, top 4 split.
Round 1 I faced Merfolks and won 2-1. Merfolks like most creature matches are very swingy. I have an advantage if i can disrupt their disruption and just alpha swing with Aspect of the Hydra. Believe it or not Spreading Seas is usually a stonerain for my deck. I played thru it and had some got draws.
Rnd 2 I faced Bogles and won 2-0. The pilot is inexperience as he is learning the game and format, so i lent him my bogles deck. It could have gone to game 3 but there was a game 2 "punt" as the kids say and i got a free win, it happens.
Rnd 3 I faced B.W. Eldrazi Taxes and lost 2-0. A timely Settle the Wreckage blew me out. it serves me right, i told the player to play Settle the Wreckage. I feel i can beat taxes but it is a creature deck and matches can be a bit swingy. They have good pieces of disruption for me, so i basically have to muscle my way into a win.
Rnd 4 I faced U/R Storm and won 2-0. I dont interact with storm and they dont interact with me to well. It does become a race but i have low-key cards that are a bit of a silver bullet. Dryad Militant is probably the best card in my deck versus storm and protecting it is priority.
Rnd 5 DRAW
Top 8:
I faced Mono-White EnT and won 2-1. Its a criter match so i have muscle my way thru and disrupt their disruption. We had a very grindy match but a top deck late game scooze gave me the victory.
