3 Steals meant for Discords, hence no Daggers. Didn't expect to run into Dims :P

Mono Darkness is awesome with a few upgrades :D

Game 0:
My internet borked, as I had warned about. At least we both got an impression of the opponents' deck (mesa more than me for that matter). Tinkered with the internet and everything went fine afterwards.

Game 1 Won:
Well timed Steals, creatures and a last turn Nightmare gave me the win.

Spoiler for screenshot:

Game 2 Lost:
Mesa drew one Dragon, 1 Fractal 1-2 Novas rest Pillars Pends. I kept some creatures in hand in case it was a Pande instead of a Fractal. Ended up getting roflpwnt for drawing nothing but quanta.

Game 3 Won:
Bad start for mesa, good one for me. Plain outrushed, enough Steals to compensate for Dims, too.

Spoiler for screenshot:

Game 4 Won:
Same as game 3, but now my start was a bit slow, too. Enough Steals and topdecked my last Steal ftw on the winning screenshot.

We were hoping for no steals. Didn't happen, but match was closer than I thought it would be.

Game 1a: Desync pretty early on, in the playthrough Pande PUd one of his Devourers, so I fractaled it and then his vamps. Still wound up losing. I know the game didn't count but it was hilarious

Game 1b: Decent draw, but no Novas to neutralize his Devourers, and it took me a while to be able to fractal. Before I could he nightmared me to death. 0-1

Game 2: Decent draw, I was becoming a bit scared of his 50+ quanta, but he didn't have anything left to deal with my fractaled dragons when they came. (thanks in part to his stealing one of my Dims over his duck shield)  1-1

Game 3: 2 Novas, but 1 pend in opening draw. He stole all of my shields. No chance here. 1-2

Game 4: Neither of us had a good draw. He played 2 steals, leaving me at 17 HP. Unfortunately, he drew the third earlier than I would have liked - 5 turns later and it would have been gg. 1-3

Congrats TorB and team darkness.

2 Steals we could handle... 3 not so much

Of all entropy's matchups, this one had me the most worried.  Congrats to darkness, and here's hoping for a 5-1 round from entropy!
