Game Record So Far: 9-7
Match Record So Far: 4-3
Affinity 1-2
Game 1: My opponent had a slower draw for Affinity. I dropped a caress on turn 2, and then with a dark deal and a burning inquiry, won the game on turn 3.
Game 2: I sided in Anger of the Gods, but proceeded to draw only 2 swamps with double anger in hand. I lose to board I could not control.
Game 3: This game was very close, I lost to a overpowered Inkmoth Nexus pumped to shit by an Arcbound Ravager.
Mardu Nahiri 1-2
Game 1: I surprised my opponent by gaining a ton of life and getting rid of their hand, after double Waste Not hit the board, the game was basically over.
Game 2: Boarded in moon over Lilli. This game went a bit longer since he had a lot of discard in hand, and with the help of his Lilli and Nahiri, got rid of my board.
Game 3: I drew poorly, and didn't hit any of my engines.
Grishoalbrand 2-0
Game 1: Going into this matchup, I thought it would be bad for this deck, since they actually want their hand in their graveyard. The problem they arose to find was that after I played my Lilianna's Carress, cards like Faithless Looting and Izzet Charm actullaly are quite painful for my opponent. Post Dark Deal, he was down at 2 life, and scopped when he realised he couldn't do enough to survive another wheel based effect.
Game 2: Turn 1 Leyline forced him into having to play Through the Breach, which I got out of his deck thanks to Extirpate. He scooped.
UW Control 2-0
Game 1: I used my discard spells to bait out his counters. Once I got Waste Not out, I played through my enablers and had enough mana to drain for a ton of life. My opponent tried to use Runed Halo, but sadly that card doesn't work against this deck very well.
Game 2: Went very similarly to game 1.
GB Elves 1-2
Game 1: What do you do in 8-rack when you play elves? You lose game 1 becuase their hand is in play.
Game 2: I drew a few Anger of the Gods and got rid of his early board, and won with Faith of the Devoted.
Game 3: Basically game 1 as he managed to get back in the gam and kill me with Shaman of the Pack. It was still a close game.
White-Black Midrange 2-1
Game 1: This was a friend playing my deck against me. I managed to get down a Waste Not after taking his discard spell. Around turn 4, He played an obliterator, and the following turn used lashwrithe on me. I had some dead draws, and he killed me.
Game 2: I pretty much just played out my deck, even through some disnenchants, but it turns out double waste not plus Dark Deal is very explosive. I swung for lethal turn 6.
Game 3: Very similar game to game 2, except I won with a ton of mana thanks to Faith of the Devoted, this game was very close.
