Draw a guard in the last turn I'm alive. On hindsight I could have tried to stall playing chimera, but the idea didn't occurred to me at the time.

G3 loss

This is the game where me and tree bring equally matched decks, that the AI has no idea how to play and disconnect 5 times before deciding who wins.
The dilemma was that tree is smart enough to get rid of my Otys when they are played by the AI and I'm smart enough to keep the wall up while killing everything on his field, if the AI plays his deck.

I didn't used the Mono again (but it would have been the deck I'd use in a 5th game vs Blacks). On hindsight 3 guards in a guardtal with no dims is a huge gamble, so I modded the deck for facing Scibra, adding dims and a lobo. My victory with Nomwall was largely due to lucky topdecks (in all 5 matches). I didn't liked that and made further tweaks.

rng has taken yet another point away from me it seems rng has deemed this trials i'm not getting into the finals.

this deck went better than expected i was able to heal of his early damage np while chipping away at his health it all depended how early he got the guardtal down I only drew one miracle so it would be tight had he drawn a guardtal in time.

yes i used a grabbowesque deck without nova and without trident but I did make it a pendulum bow so grabbes came and the quanta pillars gave me the time quanta when it was needed slugging away was simple enough.

it is always risky using a gravity duo against gravity as the shield either almost entirely shuts it down of crashes and burns this particular matchup it crashed and burned. I used this because it had served me well against both ddevs and blacks.

as andre has already eloquently put the decks were even matched as long as the otys weren't fed or tamed by dessi i got my half everything except andre had an uncanny knack of always drawing a second oty (death stares rng) and therefore i had to take a slower approach so as to not get an uncontollable oty which always bought him enough time to draw bone walls when needed.
