QND TO report:

Round One: TnT
He plays second turn Trike with Channel or something. I play a Tog, and then I win.
Game two I get owned by a second turn colossus.
Game three I poop on his manabase.

Round Two: Control Slaver
He intuitions for parts. I'm put in a position where I have to float two, gush, drain gush, go to second main, wish for snuff out, snuff out a welder, will, snuff out the other welder, play a land, and time walk. I still lose that game.
Games two and three I have ground seals and oxidizes.

Round Three: Oath
He opens with orchard, lotus, oath with counter backup.
Game two he mulls in to orchard, mox, oath, with counter backup.

Round Four: Zherbus with Slaver
Game one he draws like a billion cards before my second turn.
Game two I draw like a billion cards, but it takes me a really long time.
Game three I cast and resolve AK for 5.

Round Five: FCG
Game one, he opens with lackey, second turn siege gang, and a prospector or something. I Mystical for Demonic, cast Demonic for Deed, cast Time Walk, play deed, deed for 1, and say go. Then I play tog and win.
Game two, tog is moat.

Round Six: ID with stax

Top Eight: Moobius with Slaver
We play the AK game and I win.

Top Four: Stax
Game one his deck hands him 'the goodies'
Game two he has me totally locked but doesn't ramp up smokestack for some reason. I recover and win.
Game three he gets the goodies, but I manage to set it up so I can AK for 3 before I get anywhere near locked. I need any green source to win. I ak 3 in to ak 4, in to ancestral, in to brainstorm, over the course of three or four turns or so. I never see another mana source, leaving me at an island and two moxen for the whole game. Biiiiiiiiiig frooooooowns.

Props to everybody that showed up and made it a great event.
