Game #1:
I won the coin toss and I got a great quanta draw - and he had no idea what I was playing until I dropped discord and a nymph - by then it was too late for him to try and counter it

Game #2:
I lost the coin toss and I got a horrid quanta draw - 1 pillar in the first 16 cards - but discord rocks and I lost within one turn of winning the game.

Game #3:
RNG totally stabbed Laxa in the back - he countered Discord beautifully with a massive quanta flood - so much quanta he had no cards left to play it on. He managed to stall for a few turns with Dims but couldn't draw damage for the life of him.

Game #4:
My secret weapon stabbed him in the face - I either had won or lost every game so far by the time I drew into EQ (So I hadn't played it) - this game a drew it early, so despite his early Dim Shield, I EQ'd away all his quanta and then hit him with Discord - despite not drawing a nymph this game quanta denial held him down long enough for a lycan and a dragon to do their job.

Game 1: 4th turn nymph, thought oh shit, then thought "hey, thats like my CL deck, I'm effed!".  Was suprised by disco, and got rushed by like 2 turns or so.  Figured that I now knew jen's deck.

Game 2: Only had 1 air pillar but had a nymph.  He wasn't able to gas enough due to quanta shortages, so I coasted to victory.

Game 3: He won toss, I see 6 pends in hand and a dim. Thinking: "lol I can dim before disco, he'll need all 5 gases".  Next draw: topdeck gravy pend.  Next turn, another gravy pend.  Play dim.  Topdeck AW.  Next turn, another gravy pend, and then another.  Halfway through deck, dim chain is about to run out.  Draw catapult :F. Draw a single titan by the time I die.

Game 4: I won toss, so I was able to dim before disco.  Suddenly, Quicksand.... Reduced my stack to 1, and then 0, I could do pretty much nothing, as he disco'd me when I failed to draw a third dim.  Hand=2 titans, 3 AW, 2 catapults, with a titan on board, but no quanta to play.

Great deck air, definitely didn't see this coming, although would have had a way better chance, if your nymphs weren't so quick.

That...that's just beautiful gamesmanship.  I must learn from this example.
