Brokenness continues.
Round 1 vs Azusa, Lost but Seeking
He got off to an awesome start when I took a 2 land hand and he went Rashadan port + Strip mine! Then he plays Thrun and starts beating down. I have 2 lands and eventually rip a Sol Ring and a few more lands but I'm at 28 life. Get my Clique out there and start beating back but it's going to be a photo finish race. I tire of the race and Acquire me a Sundering Titan (losing more land) but have a gigantic blocker
He starts re-establishing with more stuff but I finish him off with a Sunder returning all lands to hand from play (I have so few lands in play that I don't have to discard when doing this during my main phase).
Game 2 vs Dralnu, Lich Lord
He hinders my Vendilion Clique turn 5 (I had miscalculation mana up and he was ramping like a motherfucker). He then makes an epic mistake and plays Life's Finale and puts Vendilion Clique (I promptly RFG it). Eventually he plays his general but Hinder it to the bottom of his library (what comes around goes around!). He eventually searches up for his general with a tutor but when he starts using it Tormod's Crypt his graveyard away. My general on the other hand keeps dying to Terror effects. I used Acquire to get his Lightning Greaves and with persistence, I run him out of counters and destruction and am able to equip up the Greaves! I had taken 15 General damage when I finally stabilize.
For the coup de grâce, I evacuation and then replay Clique to tuck his general under the deck! Then it came down to time and we drew
Match 3 vs Jenara, Asura of War
Clique beats down. Best play ever is his third card played on one turn is Life from the Loam and I exile it with Mindbreak Trap
