2019-09-17 Dice Dojo with Sultai Snow Reclamation 2-2

Round 1 vs Isaac S on Abzan Druid (0-2, 0-1)

Misplayed horribly game 1, decided not to Logic Knot Vizier for some reason

Game 2 kept a weak hand i.e. without Fatal Push and got combod on turn 4. After this match I woke up for real.

Round 2 vs Alex H on Grixis Whirza (2-0, 1-1)

Game 1 I was the beatdown. He didn't find the combo until towards the end, so I pressured his life total, Remanded Urza a few times, USZ for 7 and gg

Game 2 he had quite some stuff going. A turn 1 Grafdigger's Cage, assembling Goblin Engineer + Sword + Thopter in the midgame. Then I dropped a Reclamation, held up Cryptics, used extra mana to Teachings for Fracturing Gust and Surgical off the flashback, wiped his board and smashed in with Gearhulk.

Round 3 vs Adam R on UW Spirits/Flash (0-2, 1-2)

Imo an extremely unfavorable matchup.

Game 1 I Teachings upped a  Consume the Meek, but then he drew double Selfless Spirit and had triple Spell Queller wtfff

Game 2 more of the same. Selfless Spirit and Spell Quellers to invalidate my strategy by forcing me to be reactive to 2 damage clocks.

Round 4 vs Eli on Eldrazi Tron (1-2, 2-2)

Game 1 I got attacked by an Expedition Map what (Karn, TGC)

Game 2 Dropped to 5, blocked his lone Thought-Knot Seer threat with my Torrrential Gearhulk to stabilize. Then pressured with Gearhulk + Tar Pit, Remanded an All is Dust, then next turn he forced my hand with Chalice on 4 into my shown Summary Dismissal into a successful All is Dust. However, I'd put him to 4 on the previous attack and Tar Pit cleaned up over two turns.

Game 3... He dropped a bunch of threats, Ice-Fang Coatls held back for a bit but Eldrazi Trons has access to next-level counters with Walking Ballista and Endbringer. I misplayed by playing out my sixth land, then casting Surgical Extraction for real mana to exile Reality Smashers when I could have flashed back Mystical Teachings. Game was tight and I think my misplay potentially cost me this game/match. I was very far behind - no Tron but he resolved multiple creatures using Cavern of Souls. Plus, he had a Blast Zone on 2 to negate the effects of my Coatls.
