The Gravity Trials was epic and lasted the whole 9 games with a few desyncs thrown in for good measure. I'd like to congratulate PhantomFox on a good showing and taking me all the way to 9 games even if he did have the upgraded card advantage. I could use 14 upgraded cards. PhantomFox could use 22.
Below is my report.
Game 1
55s 55t 55t 55t 55t 55t 55t 55v 55v 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f6 5f6 74e 74e 74e 74e 74e 74e 7dg 7dg 7dk 7dk 7dk 7dk 7dk 7dk
He had a somewhat similar deck but with Elite Chargers, Otyugh, along with using some gravity pillars/towers and some other cards. I had too few creatures to deal with them and after he killed off my initial 2 Firemasters, no creatures meant Gravity Pull was useless and I lost quite comfortably.

Seeing as he didn't use any Firemasters in Game 1, I thought Thunderbolt would be great. We both had Aether mark in this game. He used Quintessence while I used Thunderbolt. He only Quintted one Charger. Ultimately Thunderbolt was better as he probably had to wait for Quintessence before putting down his Chargers so I ran away with the damage and the game.

Game 3
55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55s 55t 55t 55t 55t 55t 55t 744 744 744 745 745 745 745 745 747 747 747 747 747 747
He probably went with the same deck. He tried to hold back on his Chargers so I wouldn't kill them before they could be Quinted. He also Fractalled my Guards although he could only get 2 or 3 of them due to his hand not being very free. In the end though, he only Quintted one Charger and I kill two of them. That plus the sustained earlier damage I dealt while he was holding back his Chargers meant I won.

Game 4
55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55q 55q 5f0 5f0 5f6 74b 74b 74b 74b 74b 7dk 7dk 7dk 7ds 7ds 7ds 7ds 7ds 7ds
I think he went with the same deck as the first game. I went with more small creatures because I don't think he would use Fractals anymore.
He used a rage potion which was unexpected. That set me back quite a bit because I'm relying on my otyughs to stay alive and stay big to deny him any creatures. Unfortunately I didn't have a good mix of creatures and creature damaging cards to mount a comeback early enough. If I had 1 more turn or maybe 10 more HP perhaps I could have won.

This game was close but I was unlucky with my Chaos Seeds which only gave the Gravity Pull effect which is useless when I had Momentummed creatures. I probably made a mistake in holding back my Chargers as well because I was afraid of him having Momentum which would make his early Otyugh be able to eat my Chargers. After some time though I did decide to play my Chargers but not long after that he did get his Momentum and I was basically shut out from the game.

Game 6

I had a lucky Chaos Seed which Reverse Timed his charger. Then my black holes and discord denied him...however we desynced before we could really say I would definitely win.
Replay...
Seemingly when I was denying him again but we desync again....
Replay...
This time he had early Otyugh out along with a Momentum. Luckily I had Chaos Seed luck and I lobotomized it. I generally had more firepower but he did have two Fire Eaters. But again I called on my Chaos Seed luck which Lightning bolted and killed his big Fire Eater. Along with Black Holes for healing from all the scattered quanta he had, I won this quite comfortably.

Game 7

I didn't have enough creature control to deal with all his creatures (Fire Eaters, Chargers, Otys) and he used 2 Fire Storms which devastated my attack. I couldn't come back from that and I lost quite comfortably.

Game 8
55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55s 55t 55t 55t 55t 55t 55t 744 744 744 745 745 745 745 745 747 747 747 747 747 747
I thought quite long and hard for this game because I really wanted to counter the deck he was using the most, which was the Gravity/Fire deck with an assortment of cards. Eventually I went with this deck because it was fast. However, though he didn't go with that deck and instead went with mono-gravity.
I had an early Gravity Guard and a Gravity Pull which was used on his early Otyugh so it wouldn't disturb me. That led to damage trading but then we desycned at a critical point. We both had screenshots but after discussions with the only 2 spectators (jmizzle7 and icecoldbro), it was decided that I would have won so the game was awarded to me.

Game 9
55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55s 55t 55t 55t 55t 55t 55t 744 744 744 745 745 745 745 745 747 747 747 747 747 747
Again I went this this deck because it is the best I could come up with to counter the deck he used the most. I also thought he would use that deck because he didn't last game.
I had a good draw to start off with which allowed me to kill off his quick Fire Eater and Otyugh. He couldn't come back from there and I ran away with the game.
