More FNM results. 3-1 —June 22, 2013

Sorry to those who have been following this deck for being quiet for a bit. Have had a fair bit of work and have been recently trying to put together an EDH deck (my first one!!) so I missed out on last week's FNM.

However, I played standard on Friday night and didn't do too badly. 3-1. Here are details on all the rounds.

2-0 vs Bant Enchant. Kind of a mirror match up, but it was my aggro vs his enchants. First game was fairly quick. My opponent had to mull down to 5 and only played checklands, which slowed him down long enough for me to beatdown with Cloudfin RaptorYoung WolfRapid Hybridization and Geist of Saint Traft. 2nd game was a little bit harder, we both had Geist of Saint Traft by turn 3. Thankfully the new legendary rules haven't kicked in and we both got rid of them. 4th turn I put out another Geist of Saint Traft and he didn't have anything to respond to it. Didn't sideboard any cards.

2-1 vs Gruulgari aggro (R/G/B). Should have been 2-0, but I made the mistake of forgetting that a bloodrushed Avacyn Pilgrim can hurt if you choose not to block. Other than my silly mistake, the match up was fairly even between my early game creatures and the Dreg Mangler my opponent seemed to always pull. Highlight was putting my own Rancor on one of the Manglers then exiling it with Selesnya Charm. Didn't sideboard on this either.

0-2 vs Azorius control. Basic win con of my opponent's deck was to use a bunch of counter spells and sorcery's and pump AEtherling with Runechanter's Pike. I was screwed fairly hard both games with mulling down to 5 and only getting checklands, then proceeding to get counterspelled. Sided in Sundering Growth to get rid of the pike, but wasn't able to draw it in time. Considering changing up my sideboard to contain counter spells (maybe in place of Glaring Spotlight?)

2-1 vs Golgari aggro. Like the last aggro deck, this was a fairly even match up. My opponent this time tried to draw the game out a bit by using Deathrite Shaman and spat out wolf tokens with Garruk Relentless  ^Flip. Lost the first game by being out-aggro'd. Sided in Pithing Needle and Tormod's Crypt for some lols. 2nd game I was able to completely null Garruk Relentless  ^Flip with the Pithing Needle and win early. Last game was quite a doozey and ended with my Master Biomancer finally seeing some good use. Both of us were sitting at 10 life. I had a 6/6Geist of Saint Traft (Thanks to Biomancer), 2 Strangleroot Geist and a Master Biomancer with 1 Rancor. Opponent had 2 Deathrite Shaman, 1 2/2 Wolf token and a Dreg Mangler. Drew a Pithing Needle and played it naming Deathrite Shaman, played the other Rancor on Master Biomancer to put him to 6 power, played a 6/7 [Cloudfin Raptor]] (because I can) then swung with Geist of Saint Traft. The angel came out as a 10/10 and won the game.

Overall still very happy with how this deck is going. I'm dreading the days where my checklands and Innistrad cards cycle out.
