Thursday Night Modern 4-18-2019 —April 18, 2019
Only had 11 folks show tonight, but I had a much more solid night than last week, going 3-1 instead of 0-3-1.
Round One 0-2 vs Dredge
This guy ended up going undefeated and our games weren't even close. I was just way too slow to keep up with his broken draws.
G1, G2: My hands were slow and he was fast.
Sb: 2 Surgical Extraction, 2 Obstinate Baloth, 2 Relic of Progenitus, Anger of the Gods, Slagstorm
Round Two 2-0 vs Eldrazi Stompy
This player accidentally left his regular deck at home and so I don't think he was as well versed with this deck.
G1: Sweltering Suns wrecks him and Primeval Titan swings for the win.
G2: I kept a slow mull to 5 but Scapeshift got there a turn before he would've won.
Sb: 2 Obstinate Baloth, Anger of the Gods, Slagstorm
Man of the Match: Sweltering Suns
Round Three 2-0 vs Esper Walkers
Not sure exactly what this deck was. Possibly some kind of homebrew running Ashiok and Kaya with Tidehollow Sculler. Those were literally all the spells I saw in the deck.
G1: He managed to exile all my Scapeshift with Ashiok, but he couldn't protect his Tidehollow Scullers and I trampled with Primeval Titan.
G2: He didn't apply any pressure, so Primeval Titan swung unopposed.
Sb: Didn't see much from his deck, so I boarded nothing, but maybe Obstinate Baloth would've been prudent.
Man of the Match: Primeval Titan
Round Four 2-0 vs Bant Spirits
I drew all the right answers at the right time and there was nothing he could do.
G1: Double Sweltering Suns wrecked him.
G2: More Sweltering Suns bought me time to find Scapeshift and tease out all the Spell Quellers.
Sb: Anger of the Gods, Slagstorm, 2 Broken Bond
Man of the Match: Sweltering Suns
Had some favorable matchups tonight and winning felt surprisingly easy, especially in light of last week.
