RD 1 vs RW Control

G2: I think the turning point of the game was when the opponent's Engineered Explosive (set on one) got timely destroyed by my Krosan Grip. The opponent had no answer to my hexproof creatures and their auras after that. 

RD 2 vs Grix Shredder Tempo

G3: I won the game because of two reasons. No. Make that three. First, I started the game with an opening-hand Leyline of Sanctity. It protected my hand from any discard spells. Second, the opponent cannot use any of his spot removals to my creatures. And lastly, Engineered Explosives did not come to his aid. Win.   

RD 3 vs. Glimpse Elemental

Game one: The opponent committed a misplay. He should have played his combo in his turn instead of doing it in my combat step. 

Game two: I think my error in this game was I decided to keep this hand: two Rancors, hexproof creatures, lands, and a Daybreak Coronet. I thought that hand could outrace his combo. But I was so wrong. The opponent went off in his third turn unmolested. And when he was about to cast the third (or fourth I think it was) Glimpse of Tomorrow, I simply conceded and offered that we go to game three.

Game three: Hexproof elf plus one-drop auras (Rancor, Spider Umbra, and Hyena Umbra) plus Void Mirror on the wing won me the race. After the game, the opponent told me that he was just a land away from summoning Omnath, Locus of Creation to ignite the loop. Lucky me, I guess. 

RD 4 vs. Yorion Elementals

I won the game because of three reasons: (i) The opponent had no answer to hexproof creatures; (ii) the first strike ability was a house vs opposing creatures. And (iii) I am not sure if it did help, but I think Gaddock Teeg somehow played a role in denying the opponent to use any of his Prismatic Ending and March of the Otherworldly Lights. 

RD 5 vs. UR Murktide Ragavan

Unfortunately, I had to attend to an errand I cannot refuse. I conceded to my fifth-round opponent.

This is all for now. Thank you for reading.
