I subbed for matrimKK, bjessee subbed for 1world24.

Did NOT expect a NT deck.

Game 0: both desynced, I have the SS that I can send a WM if needed, either the original, or the cropped version (so you don't see the tab with team chat)
Game 1: couldn't manage to draw enough bolts to kill all the queens, ended up getting rushed.
Game 2: Heartpounding to say the least. On NT #3 and #4, I drew a fire bolt as he nymphed. RNG OP.
Game 3: excellent bolt draws plus good pillar draws sealed the deal.

good games, bjessee. RNG has been backing me all day today.

I actually had to buy Light Pendulums to field this deck.

His descriptions are accurate; I believe him that he beat the AI in the desync.  It is still frustrating, because I had more tears than his AI even played bolts that game on my side.  Dumb AI is dumb.

Game 2 was the most frustrating.  I had 4 Tears after turn two with enough Water sources to support them, and he managed with 11 more cards to match me Fire Bolt for Tears.

In game 3, he told me he had 4 Bolts after Turn 2, so I tried to outrush him with Light Nymphs before his quanta built up.  He caught my first with an Ice Bolt (4/4 on freezes) which would have made it closer had it not frozen.  I got him down to the low twenties before he finished off my fourth Nymph and sealed the game.

Thanks for the games, justaburd.  They were a lot of fun, and, honestly, it would have required a lot of good fortune on my end to keep ahead of all those bolts.  Best of luck to you next round, and may your good fortune troll someone else.
