Correctly predicted death rush, really nothing I could do to effectively counter it, so I just added a third RoF to this. Failed.

[Pella]

Pella 3:0 ddevans96 ... This I did not expect.  Going against a team captain for the second week in a row, I expected the match to.... well, to be different.

Duel #1 (WIN):  Cock-Frog Rush

I had a really good draw.  Evans had an average draw.  Outrushed his Grabbow without trouble.


Duel #2 (WIN):  Water-Light Stall

My duel-predicting circuits told me to bring a stall.  I really had no idea what Evans would bring, but I somehow guessed that a stall would handle it.
His Psions went around my Permafrost Shield, but my Purifies and Miracles made sure that didn't matter.  Win by deckout.


Duel #3 (WIN):  Mono-Death Rush

Evans mindgated me almost perfectly.  He predicted I'd bring mono-Death with Bone Walls.  He brought Chargers, Fire Eaters, Rain of Fire--and no .  He accidentally brought Mark of Gravity to go with his Gravy Pends.  My Recluses and Dragons plowed through his HP unhindered.  Both of us would have preferred a more challenging duel.

ddevans96, you played well.  Kudos for the mindgate on #3.  I look forward to meeting you in battle again.

Smith was waiting for the fire mark I played it last game I felt this matchup was 50/50 however smith got the perfect draw I got three nymphs, two spirits and four drags in first 12-15 cards meanwhile he got an elite queen and 4 ugs still I managed to only lose by a turn.

and btw blacksmith it is treebeard not treebard

I drew lots of quanta (7 of 7 opening hand) and ji drew very little quanta.  I top-decked damage which makes quanta flood useful.  Almost didn't get enough damage through but wasn't all that close.  ji's draw was that bad, I'd say.

Good opening hand - once I top-decked an early-ish Eternity.  Knowing ji was Fire-Water a few turns in I knew no PC (Deflag not in his team's cardset) so getting Eternity down was very key.  Also, the dragons early put pressure on to use quanta for either CC _or_ his own attack means and not both.

No Bad, Congrats Rob, I plan to go back when my parasite disappears.
also in the two last round I had trouble finding my opponents
this last I gave a free win for Annele.

I will not get more desperate to find my opponent,
find me in chat I get a good time there, unless you not want to challenge me in time chat valid then win your free win.

Thought this was a very good matchup for me, as I could easily CC his nymphs and build up damage, but both my Squids and Pends were lying at the bottom of my deck, allowing him to both take the pressure off him with his Nymphs, and build up quanta since I couldn't produce any
