G4 - Was expecting bolts in his RoL Hope so I didn't spam many crusaders and got overrun by fractalled stuff.
G5 - Counted on seing RoL Hope again, but aether dragons popped up. Was ugly, but EE, animate, 2 x blessing, 3 x endow was too much to cover with miracles in the end.

Game 1: All 4 titans hide in the last 12 cards. Anthraxx managed to kill me with a lone Morning Star while stalling with Wings, Sancs and Miracles.
Game 2: You can't get that bad RNG for 2 consecutive games, so yeah. It worked out as a rush and outrush the chrysaora deck.
Game 3: Reckon he will try to counter my titan deck now, RoL/Hope is a safe choice. He got early EE to snipe down a few of my RoL's, but the Fractals are coming in suitable times to keep my Hope high.
Game 4: Despite his slow EE, my Phase Dragons are simply slower once he got an EE flying with a ton of blessings. Could be close though.
Game 5: I have a rather good hand to start with. A 2nd turn golem, timely EQs, Vader combo and outrush him.

Squad 1 still has hope to win in this round.

I dug up my Quanta Be Gone deck from Round 5 and changed it around a bit.  Ralouf didn't get much quanta to start, and it was all gone quickly.  I had a few spiders and my arsenic within a few turns and ralouf's dials were too late.

I went with a straight death rush here.  The big difference in this game was the 1 HL ralouf used.  Other than that, we basically had mirror draws and he beat me by a turn.

I went back to discords, except without the BHs here.  I got my discord out early enough that I was able to scramble ralouf's quanta for a bit.  Ralouf finally drew a sanc and an arsenic, and I had multiple creatures out.  Although his plagues and skull shield slowed me considerably, I managed to power through.

I was almost sure that ralouf was going to come back with his HL rush deck and he did.  I thought that I should avoid the damage of the HLs and break out bonebolt to kill his not so numerous creatures.  I opened with little quanta and 4 lightnings.  I started piling up my poison and lightning'd a few of his creatures.  We both had arsenics out and he put an occasional creature out that I killed.  We both got our bonewalls out at around 50 hp, except ralouf had 10 poison, while I only had five.  I was able to finish him off a few turns later with a poison and 2 lightnings.
3-2

Great games ralouf, it is always a pleasure.

I expected vagman to play poison next, and poison it was. It should have been a good counter, however the combination of drawing only 1 charger in the first half of my deck and heal spam at the other end meant I got out-damaged. 1-1

I was sort of expecting more scorpions for this match, but was up against adrenastaves with deadly poisons. I got a reasonably early carapace out, so that with a RoF quickly killed the one staff he managed to get out. Even still, it was very close, as I didn't draw much generation and didn't get a mitosis until the last turn. I just managed to stay alive with 3 frogs and 2 bonds against 12 poison counters and won. 2-1

I was expecting the same deck as before, as vagman had alluded that he'd gotten a terrible draw. So I tried speedbuilding a reasonable counter to it. Despite forgetting 2 of my upgrades and facing up against a completely different deck, it seemed to be quite effective. I gravy pulled all his mitosing frogs, and though an early thorn carapace made things a bit hairy, I threw enough amphibians at him to seal the deal. 3-1

Thank you very much for the games vagman, it has been a pleasure

Against mono Entropy rush - I had a 4 pillar start while he made a turn 2 discord. With my good quanta production the Discord effect wore of quickly, and after firing double-Panda at his two Abominations I played a Purple Nymph. His deck did not have any CC so she was able to take the game over in short order.

The second game, he played Time/Entropy with Dune Scorpions, but did not draw a Scorp for a very long Time. That allowed me to outrace him pretty effortlessly despite my draw being somewhat subpar too.
Third game he played a conventional Entropy Time rush with RTs and I got a great draw with turn 1 Arsenic and Fog Shield. His deck was too slow again.

Pleasant games as usual draco.

[dracomageat]

Nice to hear I'm pleasant to play against but I wish I was actually good at something, y'know?
Anyway, posted this in the wrong topic:

First round I figured I'd play it safe and take a more or less standard mono not made by me. It died to a single Nymph.

So I decided I'd play my metophorical trump card a little early. This deck should have won it for me but I didn't draw the scorpion for ages. Still, it was closer than I expected t that point.

And this was just poor judgement on my part. I mean, really, who takes RT against Physalias? Why would anyone take Discord against a Novabow? Why play something as slow as dragons against poison? I was dumb. I didn't stand a chance.
