I screwed up.  But great matches, some of the best I've ever played.

Moral of the match: Luck IS on Entropy's side
Game 1: I had a decent draw, with a first turn arsenic and spirit and second turn grabby, but PoL responded with a warden and a +5 attack CP, which also boosted its health out of range for my lightning.  I kept my grabby burrowed waiting for more cards to play while he piled on damage.  At the end of the game, his fog shield went a little haxxor and stopped all of my attacks, allowing him to win. 0-1

Game 2: This one would have been mine if it wasn't for more CP madness.  I had an ok start with a few bone pillars but only 1 nova.  Got an arsenic and bone wall out to stop damage relatively quickly, and grabbies and mummies follow.  The sole reason he won was because of his 17/12 momentum'd lycan.  Both times he used CP on the lycan it got +5 attack.  With momentum, I stood no chance against it. 0-2

Game 3: Pretty good hand, 2 novas and a lycan out the first turn, grabby and spider the next.  Piled on a lot of damage and shockwave'd his first shrieker, giving me an easy win.
Just because I'm in a rush, only giving details for game 5. 1-2

Game 4: Game 3 but better.  Tons of damage and fast. 2-2


Game 5: Only 1 nova to start, with 2 I would have had the perfect offensive hand.  PoLdeR had a 3 nova start and a few creatures.  I had a spider out second turn, but forgot to put my grabby out third turn.  On the third turn I also put my arsenic out, second mistake.  Next turn I drew a nova and got the majority of my cards out, but PoLdeR had too much damage.  Missed the bone wall by 2 quanta, the quanta from the arsenic. 2-3

Great games PoLdeR, you played like a true pro.  Good luck to you and the rest of entropony throughout the rest of war (but considering the luck you had here, you won't need my luck )

It was back and forth....sometimes Jippy had a good hand and sometimes Pol did....hence the 3-2 result.  It was nerve-wrecking to watch and hope for better draws than your opponent.  The desyncs with good starting hands hurt especially when they were followed by great starting hands by Jip   That's just the luck of the draw sometimes.  Two great grabbows and great decks.  The moral of the story was LUCK WAS ON ENTROPY'S SIDE!!!!

Great playing by both sides.  Games were quick, fierce, and intense.  Best of luck to Death and thank you PoLdeR for avening a fellow pony.

  ENTROPONIES UNITE!!!!

I think this match is the best example as to why switching to a best of 5 game set was a really good idea.  In the first two games, PoLdeR had much better draws and completely crushed me.  In the last three, we had more even draws and the matches were great.  If we were just in a best of 3 set, the match would have been over without really giving my deck a fair chance.  And I'm adding more summaries, they might be a little off though.
