It's Blue Monday folks. And what better way to celebrate Blue Monday than a Very Very Blue matchup between
and
.
You could also listen to everyone's favourite New Order song. True Faith. Which is what I did for the about hour and a half it took for us to complete the series. oh god please free me.
I feel so E X T R A O R D I N A R Y
So, match summaries.
Game 1: Well well Aether mark looks like I planned right. Oh CRAP. Entropy pends and psions. Watch this be CPower Psions and I didn't bring reflective because I expected recluses to be there. Well nevermind there are the recluses. Won toss, got sanc up before he had quanta to play discord. Decent quanta flow and control and permafrost and healing kept me up. I think I played flooding here, and that was all fine and dandy. Good margin of victory 1-0
Game 2: Won toss, faster start for him. He got to play discord before I could sanc. Nothing worth nothing until I never drew flooding, but I drew Nymph Queen.
Here is where things go to shit.

We desync, for reasons unclear. He plays vs my AI, I play vs a timer and what happens mirrors what Zaw is doing, so I take it I'm playing vs Zaw. I end up winning by damage, even if zaw's desync clone first loses 5 health I should have it covered. Turns out, he gains 25 health on the turn where I'm winning. On his side, he ends up beating my AI which never queened more and it takes him a turn more than it took me.
This is a win for me, but I know this will not be easy and clear so. 2-0 fwiw.
Game 3: He gets a good draw, I still sanc before discord. Got flooding very late and not much healing at all. He ends up winning by (basically) exact damage on his last turn. I think it was with range of a single sanc of healing. 2-1.
Game 4: He gets a buttload of quanta, but nothing to damage me early with. I get flooding not particularly early but early enough to prevent damage from racking up too fast. He ended up playing a bunch of flooded spiders while I had a sundial up but I also had 200 hp, 4 sancs, at least another sundial in hand and he had 4 cards left so it didn't actually matter. 3-1
The games were long, but good except for the wonderous desync one. Also I'm pretty sure I don't want to hear True Faith by New Order in the next 4 months.
I can't tell you where we're going
I guess there was just no way of knowing.
