Games for 3/22

1st Match: (0-2)
So went against a guy with a Colonel Mustard beard, love it! Also, little kids running running around. Not l
love it.

Anyhow, went 0-2 against a black/red/white. Kept Orzhov Charming and Boros Reckoning over and over again. He got a Blood Artist on the field and pretty much my transformed Reckless Waif and Young Wolf I had on the field had no answers.

2nd Match: (1-1-1)
Went up against one of "those" decks. It wasn't a typical shocklands and Thragtusk deck, I will give it that. But the Thragtusk and Restoration Angel combo was a little annoying to say the least. Exiling my cards with the flyer was annoying.
1st Game - got a Mayor of Avabruck and a Wolfbitten Captive on the field pretty early. Rancor on the Mayor by turn 5 or so. Had him down to 13 life. Then he played his mighty Thragtusk. Then exiled my cards with an angel. Had a Wolf token on the field when they left. Had a Wild Defiance on the field that was doing nothing for me. And the game pretty much went downhill from there.
2nd Game - I sideboarded two Plummet and two Tormods' Crypt and two Grafdiggers' Cage. Drew a hand with no land. Mulligan down to 6, he did the same. Second hand, all land with one Tormod's Crypt and Huntmaster. Dropped the Crypt and royally laid it to him.
3rd Game - Started the game and got one turn into it before time in the round was called. 5 turns later, he was at 14 life and I was at 22. Boo.

3rd Match: (1-1-1)
Played a kid who wanted to read every card. He was playing a Demir Mill Deck. He thought Consuming Aberration was the best card in the world.
1st Game - I mana screwed bad, by turn 8 I still had only 2 Rootbound Crag on the field, had managed to bring out 4 creatures somehow by blind luck and had him down to 4 life before he finished me off. His Consuming Abberation was like a 30/30 and for some reason he never attacked with it until he made it unblockable on like turn 18.
2nd Game - Got plenty of land and just laid into him with Mondromen Shaman, Wolfbitten Captive, Mayor Of Avabruck and Immerwolf. It was over by turn 8.
3rd Game - Once again, ran out of time since he wasted so much time the first game. Went to turn 4 before time was called this time. Except this time he got smart and started attacking with a Deathcult Rogue early on with some mill card Ciphered onto it. 5 turns later, with a Searing Spear in my hand and one just cast with no mana to cast the other, the game ended in a draw on his turn with 2 life for each of us. Grr.

4th Match: (2-0)
Played a guy who was playing a life gain deck. White/Green/Black.
Both games I just took him to town. By turn 7 both games were over with never pulling anything bigger than a Kruin Outlaw and an Immerwolf onto the field. Mayor Of Avabruck was out both games and just stuffed Wolf tokens down his throat. It was ugly.

All in all ended up with 5 points on the night. Not too awful bad. Due to spring break there was only like 17 people playing and I ended up 8 out of 17. Got 3 packs, a Gatecrash an Innistrad and a Dark Ascension. BUT for qualifying top 8 I got two mini boosters with 6 cards in them. Cool deals.

Picked up a Havengul Runebinder and Stromkirk Captain out of the Dark Ascension.  A Duskmantle Seer out of the Gatecrash. And an Essence of the Wild and Falkenrath Noble from the Innistrad. A Duskmantle Guildmage and Ripscale Predator from the bonus packs. All in all, not bad.

It is FNM day

Okay, its a Friday, and I am off. Excellent. I still am waiting on cards for my Hydra Menace deck, so I will be playing the Moonmist Destruction Werewolf Aggro deck tonight. Lacking one of my Huntmaster cards, and a couple of common cards I would like to have, but I feel like it will still perform well. Hopefully it will still go 3-1 at least tonight.

I am trying out a new FNM tonight at Mayhem Collectables in Ames. Should be fun. It's a $5 charge, but they award prizes, unlike Main Street Magic, who only award the FNM promo card, but play is free standard.

So I will be blogging my matches tonight as I play them. Good luck to all other players, see ya at the tables!
