I've been trying to schedule with my opponent but we just aren't lining up well. I've also had family in town the past three days. I can fit a game in today if Snacksmaniac can. We have been communicating through PMs so fingers crossed.

I'm pretty sure there's a few people who are going to be late (myself likely included thanks to still being at work almost 3 hours late.)

There's a group here my city that does showings of "Bad Movies" every month, for free, in a bar. Its been great. Last month was Gamera: Guardian of the Universe and before that we did a double feature of Disco Godfather followed by Black Dynamite. The latter is technically a good movie, being a satire, but its been something of a thing to show good stuff afterwards though its usually shorts or a few episodes of TV shows like China, IL or Garth Marenghi's Darkplace.

I'm getting a bit off topic by bringing all this up though, so I digress :v:

I'm on Izzet Blitz, he's on Sliver beatdown.

G1: I'm on the draw. I keep a pretty viable hand with Delver, Nivix Cyclops, lands, and spells. My only red source was an Evolving Wilds. T1 Island, Delver. T2 miss the blind flip, draw Island, have no other real plays besides Evolving Wilds to set up T3 Nivix. On the other side, Snacksmaniac is just playing really good Slivers and hitting his land drops. At the end of his T3 F2 through his end step, not cracking my Evolving Wilds, making my Bolt and Cyclops unplayable. GG.

G2: On the play, I get the a dream hand of Temur Battle Rage, Gitprobe, some cantrip, lands, and creatures. T2 Kiln Fiend into enough spells to make him lethal is stopped by a smartly played Vines of Vastwood on my own creature in response to Temur Battle Rage. Still takes 10. Probably forgetting Apostle's Blessing is likely lethal, he attacks with his white creature leaving a green creature back. I preordain into bolt into apostle's blessing and swing through the green creature. GG.

G3: Not wanting to mull to 5, I keep Island, Delver, and 1 mana spells, including removal for nearly any sliver he can play (Flame Slash). I get a blind flip on Delver T2, while he proceeds to never hit a Plains. I don't hit a second land for about 4 turns and don't hit a mountain ever. I am racing him down with my flipped Delver vs his 2/2 green Sliver, and he gets rancor on his single Sliver after a few turns. He attempts to Journey to Nowhere my Delver, but I cast Apostle's Blessing in response, and he has to target his own creature. GG.

I'm also waiting on Necronomicon/Lonely Bridge I think, and Necronomicon appears to be winning as he has posted more than 0 times.

Sounds like the only other match aside from mine is happening tonight so we'll get things up tomorrow. Everyone make sure your match results are correct and if anyone is changing decks let me know. The only person I have as switching decks right now is Chamale to elves.

Sorry I've been out of town and just now remember to check in on this. I'm online right now if you are around, if not I can play tomorrow too. Unless the round is over by then, I feel like I'm pretty late to the party here.

1/2 Mulled to bad 6es every game, MTGO didn't take my sideboarding game 2, and I drew 2 of my 8 sideboard cards and 1 of my 8 counters, and 1 of my 7 sources of card advantage in like 34 cards in game 3.

ggs. That game 3 was miserable, only got 1 counterspell and didn't find a single card that drew cards. I think you had drawn over a dozen more cards than I did over that game. Though if we hadnt made a new game for game 3, you would have timed out nearly 5 minutes before being able to win :v:

2 - 1, Voyager over Locke.

Locke took the first game, but my sideboard gave me a lot of love for the next two. Props to Locke for remaking so we could play a proper game three.

EDIT: yeah casting Mulldrifter with countermagic backup three turns in a row while your deck completely refuses to give you gas seems like a good way to pull ahead.
