Saw the Earth mark, didn't expect Earthquakes but a novabow.  I was right, and Earthquakes could've messed me up.  Falcon wouldn't be complacent; he kept me on my toes both matches.  The first round I didn't draw any shields until 2/3 the way through the game, sustaining on Miracles and Stone Skin.  Drew one, he deflagged it the next turn.  Drew another, and I realized he spent his second Deflag on an old Sanctuary a ways back.  The shield essentially marked the end, though it was another 8 or so turns until Falcon decked out.  The second game was a little faster in everything.  I expected him to hold his Deflags and try to bomb me when I got low enough, so I Miracled early and Sanctuaries helped.  He nearly got me, perhaps was waiting for a Deflag, and got me down ~30 hp.  I had plenty of Miracles in hand and an extra shield, so it wasn't a problem.  To ensure his second Deflag didn't ruin my day I then Stone Skinned into the ~300hp range to ensure that I'd have enough time to fuel a Miracle again.  Good games Falcon, but there just wasn't much you could do.

Light/earth stall, oh what fun to be had.
Game 1: tried to rush because I had a pretty good hand, and I actually got close. I was afraid of BB + shield so I placed the adren on the biggest hitter. I don't know whether that error cost me the match or not, but him not fielding a shield until late late game makes me think so.
Game 2: tried to hold cards back. I guess it was too damn obvious and coinich miracled at 40 hp, a couple turns before I could deliver the killing blow. Then I raged and tried a two-turn hit before the SS spam. It wasn't enough.

Well played coinich. I was wishing to take down a point myself, but you kinda slapped me in the face with that deck

I wouldn't say you were being obvious about it, but by that point I had guessed much of your deck.  Its hard to bomb Shriekers without anyone noticing, and frankly thats about the only way you could've won anyways.  I've just run this deck enough to know how to adapt.  You played as I would've played.
