(I'm terribly sorry for the sudden disappearane... Literally 20 seconds after the final game my internet died on me.)
Ladies and Gentlemen, I present you...

I tried various decks while playtesting, and in the end I felt most comfortable with a PC heavy deck. Me and the team more or less agreed that an UG deck is very much possible. I knew that Bloom had an air nymph, what I didn't know is he had an upped one as well.
G1: I stole 2 OEs, but left the fog. Didn't see too much UG action until the last round when he spammed like 3. Too bad he was in killrange by then. 1-0
G2: Early upped nymph. I didn't have the CC to kill it. Bloom played the UGs very cleverly, alsways waiting for me to get low on darkness quanta so I cannot steal the UG before he pops it. I also misplayed a few times, and in the end I was just one quanta short of bolting him for 3 damage, which could have been decisive. 1-1
G3: I had a good starting hand of 1 phoenix, 3PC cards (for the first time in the game I drew a deflag as well as steals) and the rest quanta. No nymph for him and a fast Vampire dagger for me meant a victory with a comfortable amount of HP left. I also had a firebolt in hand, so I kept my phoenixes back a bit to ensure I always had 10 fire quanta, but the bolt was not needed. 2-1
G4: I had a good hand again, but Bloom played a very early nymph. I almost couldn't keep up with his UG spam. I stole 2 and used them and I also deflagged one. In the mean time I had my fingers crossed for another PC card. Towards the end of the game Bloom killed my 3 phoenixes, UGd the ashes then plyed 2 shockwawes to kill 2 of my ashes, then he spammed 2 UGs. With no offense for me, and at least 40 damage for him on the board, I was literally about to die, when I topdecked a stea and used it on an UG which not only saved my ass, but brought Bloom to killrange. 3-1
GGs Bloom, you played a huge gambit with that deck, I think mine was not the deck you prepred for, yet you fought valiantly.
EDIT: Only 1 fog? You drew it, like, every game
