I start off first hand with good spells, but shaky mana. Basically, if I didn't draw a black or blue source of mana by turn three I'd be in trouble. Well it's turn 5 now, and I'm in trouble. I'm facing Red deck wins which is my absolute worst matchup other then the mirror. My shaky mana doesn't recover in time, and I concede at 3 life.
Sideboarding: + 2 Eyeblight’s Ending, 2 Glen Elendra Archmage, 1 Terror, 3 Flashfreeze
- 4 Thoughtseize, 3 Sower of Temptation, 1 Fathom Trawl
2nd game: i draw a decent hand of Secluded glen, agony warp, mutavault, remove soul, sunken ruins, island, and Mistbind clique. I keep. He starts out with a flamekin bladewhirl. That's different from the typical RDW build, and I take note of it. I remove soul his boggart ram gang, and take another hit from the bladewhirl. We play the counter/burn spell shuffle, andthen he sticks a Vexing shusher, and I stick a Mistbind clique. My next spell is a bitterblossom, and I just take control of the game from there.
3rd game: My hand is four land, bitterblossom, eyeblight's ending, and scion of oona. I keep.
He came out hard...creature creature creature, and I was on the backfoot the entire time. I managed to stabilize at 4 life and take control of the game. I lost cause I got greedy. I attacked with all my guys, when I should have left 2 blockers up. i thought about it too, but I decided to go for it, cause I had cryptic command in hand. He had gutteral response to counter my cryptic, and killed me. Just got too greedy.
Until next time, remember all work and no play...
