Uh yeah, baby!
First match started out with a questionable starting hand without red (again). We were delayed for a turn not drawing red nor a fourth mana but when the mountain came and afterwards a second gate, it turned into a massacre. We had Maw of the Obzedat into a smelt-ward gatekeeper that stole their armored wolfrider with Unflinching Courage
. A Legion's Initiative saved us from a stall when they played Haunter of the Nightveil. They were tapped out so I activated the initiative, stole the haunter and swung for lethal.
They had a Deputy of Acquittals, some gatekeepers and a lot of gates though, so I sided out both Sinister Possessions in favor of a Boros Mastiff and one Ubul Sar Gatekeepers.
Second game despite having no gates at first we had a brilliant start drawing the Boros Mastiff on turn 2, followed by a Viashino Firstblade on turn 3. Unfortunately they had a Murmuring Phantasm to delay our onslaught a bit, and when they pulled out a Bronzebeak Moa I actually was a bit scared. After drawing two gates and (I guess?) a playmistake on their part - they milled himself with Pilfered Plans dropping a Debt to the Deathless and some other random card - things looked a bit better, first usage of Gleam of Battle in all matches and a finisher with Toil / Trouble for exactly lethal.

Well, that was a bust. I watched Caley's stream and saw what he would've done differently, which could've actually won me game 3. Although TridenT also made a few mistakes by not killing me when he could have, I probably made some worse mistakes, totally forgot about Fatal Fumes , played a wrong land turn 3 and probably should've toiled myself for card-draw.
Well, shit happens, next time it will be better. Caley actually said that we were estimated to be the second to win this whole thing which gives me hopes of winning some matches in the future :P

Yeah, and if nothing else I think our deck is still one of the strongest we've seen so far. As a drafting exercise, we rock!
