Did the right thing, and would do it again, but damn. This one hurt.

With SoV, I reached my win condition with Drains faster than Aves reached his with Bolts.

Aves played Reflective the turn I drew lethal damage. Good counter.

Coin toss loss. Dusk performed very poorly all game. Granted Aves the win with an illegal deck because he didn't play his Steals.

Aves Nightmared my hand full of Voodoo Dolls - I played one and used it in combination with one of my Wardens to stun his Dagger. Dusk performed well here, the only time in all my matches so far.

Had hoped I'd have some good karma coming my way, but I couldn't really imagine a worse draw. Of the 9 Gravity sources in the deck, I opened with one Pendulum, drew a single Gravity Pillar/Tower all game, and got wrecked by Devourers keeping me at 4
and 9
for four turns in a row. Took a calculated risk and played a big Nightmare with Chargers - even though Aves could play them for more damage, I would need the health drain and draw denial to win... but lost by a turn.
