Needed a draw with a lot of pressure to stand a chance here, didn't get it.

I was extremely fortunate to draw 5 Angels in my top 18 or so cards. The unusually good creature draw gave me enough damage to punch through all the miracles. Eternity and the odd RT kept his creatures at bay.

This game was a 33 turn marathon. I think I misplayed a couple of times here. Once in the mid game by bouncing my frozen Dragons against Permafrost - drawing for more creatures there was probably stronger. And again by using an RT late game to bounce a frozen Dragon instead of his Nymph.
I RT'd Queens until I was a turn from decking out, then started bouncing my own creatures. Permafrost blocked a ton of damage, along with 5 SoD and 3(?) Miracles. In the end Root was only a turn or two from overwhelming me when I finally ran him out of Miracles.

Root had no way of dealing damage past Hope. Rewound a RoL, built up a 7 damage reduction Hope, then waited for deck out.
