Pervepic > Essence 2:1
Round 1: Pervepic brought a neat little Flying Weapon deck featuring Arsenic and Eagle Eyes. I had a FFQ/Bond deck that would have done lots better if, instead of drawing all 4 of my Emerald PIllars up front and a total of 2 Air Pillars, I had, say, drawn more of the 11 Air Pillars and less of the Emerald.

Round 2: He played the same Flying Weapon deck, but my Adrenal Vampires w/lots of Steal kept his weapons out of the air long enough for the Vamps to suck him down; by the time the Eagle Eyes took control, he had taken too much Poison damage from his own stolen Arsenic to recover.

Round 3: A truly epic battle. I guessed he would go Speed Poison, so I played Flying Adrenal Staves with some Dragons and one FFQ as backup. He played

all right, but it was a nasty stall deck with Plague, Bone Wall, and Squids, with an Ivory Dragon finisher. I knocked him down to 50 HP and then the Plagues ate away my Adrenalined creatures quickly and built up the Bone Walls nicely. He ran out of Plagues for a while, but by then he had 3 Squids up and running, so even my Adrenalined critters weren't really terribly effective against his endless supply of Bone Walls. I broke through and got him down to 40-ish only to have his last Plague come up and secure his victory. I decked out at 100HP for the lose.
