I promised my 5 peso stumpy deck that whenever I go abroad I'll take her with me. So when I went to Guangzhou, China for the Grand Prix, I fulfilled again that promise. She get the chance to dance in China's ballroom floor when I registered her for the legacy side event. Even though the said event had only four rounds, it has a lot of unforgettable things.
RD 1 MUD Eldrazi
Game one ended when he called a Chalice of the Void setting it at one. However, things were different in game two because I had him at turn two. Two Invigorates and two Berserks to my attacking Jungle Lion on my turn two forced a do-or-die game. Unfortunately I got stuck on one land in our game three, sans I lose.
0-1 (1-2)
RD 2 Sneak Attack
For game one, his Emrakul 15/15 ate me and my pets alive. In game two, Griselbrand swang at full speed but Fog greeted him not just once, but twice. I won game two with a collected effort from Kavu Predator, Nettle Sentinel, Rancor and Skarrgan Pit-Skulk. But game three did not end in our favor. Griselbrand and Emrakul team-up to hand us our second loss of the day. Show and Tell into Sneak Attack into Griselbrand and Emrakul, GG.
0-2 (2-4)
RD 3 Eldrazi and Taxes
Second turn Stoneforge Mystics Calling out an Umezawa's Jitte, GG. Jungle Lion immediately avenge our loss by finishing him off on turn two, two Invigorates and two Berserks. Game three took us like 30 minutes to settle things down. A top decked Eldrazi Displacer was all he needed to send my creatures to oblivion thus nullifying their inherent abilities to block.
0-3 (3-6)
RD 4 bye
YAHOO! A win for my beloved deck in a foreign soil! I know its a bye, but I'd still count it as a win. ^_^
What a weekend it was! Thank you for reading and I wish you all good luck in the upcoming third WMCQ this September 17th.
