RD 1 vs. Mono-Green Tron

Ethereal Armor and All that Glitters gave the buff needed. The Umbras gave the protection necessary against the opponent's mass removals.  

RD 2 vs. Grix Death's Shadow

Game one: I kept a hand with lands, auras, and one hexproof creature. The opponent opened the game with a discard spell nitpicking my lone creature. The next creature came too late. 

I won game two because of the following reasons: (i) the opponent playing fetch-paying two life points multiple times; (ii) Thoughtseizing himself; (iii) the sort of protection clause from totem armor effect after popping his Engineered Explosive.  

Game three: I do not want a repeat experience of our game one where the opponent was able to nitpick the important cards from my hand. So I mulled aggressively until I have a Leyline Sanctity in it. I think it paid off because the opponent's hand never went down to three cards in hand. 

RD 4 vs. 4c Elementals

G1: Slippery Bogle with trample and first strike from one-drop auras were too much for this team to answer. 

G2: Magus of the Moon single-handedly defeated team hexproof. 

G3: Ethereal Armor and All That Glitters lead the way to victory. 

RD 5 vs Tron

G3: Multiple copies of umbra cards saved my creature from the opponent's mass removals (Oblivion Stone and Blast Zone). And this is what we play during our last play. Him: summoned Golos, Tireless Pilgrim. Me: Spirit Mantle. Golos unable to block my 8/6 hexproof, reach, trample creature - swing for the win.

This is for now folks. Thank you for reading.
