Compleat silence, please
I have defeated FingersMcLongDong 2-1, after a well-fought match starring many many punts on both sides of the table.

The first two games were great, then I had to mull to 3 in game 3 to get a hand with both lands and spells.

Our definitions of "all night" didn't apparently synch up, and you weren't on this afternoon. I will likely be out till the wee hours today, so... sometime saturday afternoon? I'm free all day Sunday otherwise.

2-1 Archenteron over MiddleEastBeast

Archenteron beat me, 2-1. Game 1 I rode Tarmogoyf fueled by his Mesmeric Orb to a quick win while he struggled to assemble his combo. Games 2 and 3 he sideboarded into even more (and different) unfair stuff that caught me off guard (Show and Tell into Emrakul game 2, Painter/Grindclock game 3) and I didn't have much going on except a meaningless Grafdigger's Cage. I should probably pay more attention to the sideboards in posted decklists.

1/2 to Sigma-X. 3 bad mulls to 6 and terrible draws. Hooray variance!

Beat suicidesteve 2-1.

lost g1 because I managed to skip his turn and not cast a moment's peace. Game 2 he goes T1 delver, T2 brainstorm seeing no lands and I have infinite time to do 12-posty things. game 3 we're both on 1 mana forever thanks to many wastelands, including my own, and he skips a turn in there completely (again, gently caress xmage) but I get rolling with primetimes after he counters like 3 things and flashes back ancient grudge (which was super value this game) and get to play candelabra / post shenanigans.

e: my 12-post deck in this format is pretty jank because I'm testing things for my IRL mono-green 12 post and I have to say I think ancient stirrings is pretty legit. It is a bit scary not having a full set of vesuvas though, I can't chain glimmerposts into timewalks forever and I have markedly less life to play with as a result. It hasn't affected my ability to win yet but I can see it being problematic against burn and grixis delver.

Yeah, the whole not drawing any colored lands or creatures or cantrips or relevant cards outside of Wasteland game 3 for 10 turns kinda screwed me, as well as drawing 4 lands in a row once I finally did draw a fetch for my Trop.

I probably would have skipped my turn anyway. I drew Ponder which seemed worse than keeping up Stifle against your Wasteland. It's just pretty annoying that it kinda decided to skip it without me telling it to?
