ggs!

Game 1 WIN:
Won toss. 30 (apparently 31) cards Aether Mark, Bonebolt maybe? rob had instant Arse, stole it right after. Did not play second RoL I drew for a while, afraid of BW + Lightning spam. Was holding it for Fractal for a while, when suddenly... Dimensional Shield? Guess I can play RoLs safely. Still, not getting Fractals is a pain. A stolen Dim trolls rob for a few turns while Light Nymph shows up to provide some much needed healing. Also replaced Arse with Vagger for even more healing. Only barely won despite no Fractals in first 20 cards (final topdeck 21st card was obviously Fractal).

Spoiler for screenshot:

Game 2 WIN:
Won toss. After last game, I knew saving Steals for Dims was priority over stealing Arse if early Fractal and Hope. After enduring Arse for a while and setting up RoL Fractal Hope, rob suddenly started Fractaling my RoLs? Did not take me long to figure out he was trying to Fractal my Nymphs later to outheal my damage. Knowing his plan, all I had to do was save Nymph for Fractal as killing blow. And that's what I did.

Spoiler for screenshot:

Game 3 WIN:
Won toss. Really fast start this time including Fractal in starting hand and a Steal. But no Hope. Topdecked it at the right time, blitzed through his health with just RoLs thanks to a second Fractal and recklessly stole a Dim for quick win, counting on all his Dims to be unupgraded as they had been so far, leaving rob 1 short of saving himself.

MATCH VIDEO

Game 1: See aether mark and think "uh oh, Dev-tal is not good news for me". Then see RoL's happen and think "wtf is this?". I suspect Steals because what else would the dark quanta be for in this?? So I figure I have a shot to deckout win with coin toss loss if I can figure out if he has steals. Makes sense. He steals it. I think in the moment "wait on fractal - I'll play another Dim to see how many steals he might be packing!". Turns out this was RNG's gift-game to me that I blew by not fractal-ing those two turns sooner on Recluses as he waited until 20th card or so to draw Fractal. ARGH!

Game 2: Try some tricks by fractaling his RoL's so he cannot spam Nymphs to heal... he sees through the ruse and long-plays the game winning late.

Game 3: I get stomped again.

Good games Darkness. (Won't somebody field a couple wtf-bows or janky-stalls against us soon? Any takers?  )

EDIT 2: Thank you to TorB for accommodating my schedule that is not-very-good-for-dueling-Europeans.
