He played Immo Déjà Vus with Phoenixes and deflags but didn't draw enough Deflags, while I drew a lot of Poison and Plagues early.

Our decks were made with the same idea, only he chose flying Vampire Daggers and Devourers, I managed to outdamage him with good draw.

Happy to have won my very first duel, thank you Bloom, all matches were very close and interesting.

Vineroz used a water duo (we didn't get very creative) with purifies, spirits, nymphs, squids and other cards. If he didn't have squids I could have won this one. Me drawing all my pillars after his first squid didn't help my situation either. I should have used some control, in retrospect.

My ban, as it seems, kind of told Vineroz what I was planning to do and he brought an air/darkness stallbreaker. He miscalculated however and missed his opportunity to kill me, so I decked him out eventually. I was terrified the whole game, but I was lucky because he took his steals out, leaving my diamond shield in place. Using wardens against Air was kinda stupid though, should have gone with BBs. Sanctuaries could have helped too against his devourers.

A simple mono aether rush. Vineroz brought a SoR/Pharaoh/Eternity deck. He played an early eternity but keeping my two recluses rewound kept his quanta low, making him unable to play his pharaoh until it was too late. I had a nifty 3 pillar draw, which with my mark, allowed me to play my recluses again and again, dealing 14 damage every round.

Good games!

^ Good games, but IMO the challenge is complete. Since my Pharaoh-Cataplut deck broke the final-blow rule I've lost the second game. However, I may challenge you again in the same challenge another time.

However, a desync occured, but Rosutosefi said that AI's Lobos defeated his Crusaders, so I overall won the challenge. GGs rosutosefi!
