[Report] Garden City, MI

Hi all. My name is KC Keel and this is where I type out what happened so I can re-live some stupid losses.

So I woke up and had to work before hand so we were very rushed getting to pande. I got there and was not happy to find no Isamarus to buy. Luckily I traded for them almost immediately after that failed attempt. While I was at the counter I picked up my 4th rule of law. Soon after the tournament ensued and this is what I attacked with:

4 Exalted Angel
3 Isamaru, HOK
2 Savannah Lions
4 Soltari Priest
4 Silver Knight
3 Umezawa's Jitte
2 Sword of F/I
3 Tithe
3 Chrome Mox
4 Mother of Runes
2 Disenchant
2 Mask of Memory
3 Parallax Wave
4 Swords to Plowshares

4 Ancient Tomb
13 Plains

SB:
3 Armageddon
4 Rule of Law
2 Disenchant
1 Parallax Wave
4 Tormod's Crypt
1 Sacred Ground

I am not going to explain anything about the choices cause I did that in the proven forum under "Angel Stompy". But here is how my matches went:

Round 1: Chris - Mono-Black Beats

So this was complete jank. It ran infernal kirin and infectious host. I won 2-0 and didn't side anything...Breeze.

2-0

Round 2: Rich - High Tide

This match-up is pretty tough for me but I was glad to be able to test out my savage sideboard for it. Game one he had plenty of time while all I had was the fierce push of 2 mothers. Yea I lost that one. Game two I side in armageddon and rule. I sided out swords and wave. I landed a rule followed by 2 armageddons while sitting on a jitte'd lion. He scooped a turn after the second geddon. Game three was closer but not close enough...I didn't see any of my sideboard so it was down hill from a remanded equipment. Brain freeze ensued soon after.

1-2

Round 3: Rob - Legacy Boros/Burn

This was a complete walk. He tried sideboarding ensnaring bridge but I saw him play it against my teamate earlier and sided in the other disenchants and dealt with those easily. This was yet again an easy win. He swords' a few things too but that didn't help him enough. Too many creatures to target. No sideboarding the whole match.

2-0

Round 4: Jeff - Confidant

So this is kinda a funny story. I played this guy in round 4 AND in the quarterfinals of the top 8. So here is the 4 games. Game 1 was by far the closest when he popped tomb of urami for a 5/5 flying beater. Luckily I was able to remove a jitte counter to gain 2 which gave me enough time to draw a swords. Whew. I barely won that won when he ran out of steam. Game 2 he vindicated quite a few things but eventually I had sword of F/I and jitte on a mother...Yep. Game 3/1 of top 8, I laid down an angel very early and never went below 20. Rape. Game 4/2, I went down to 18 from a hypnotic specter but ultimately ended that game with 26 life thanks to an angel and paralaxx wave. For the 2 "second" games I sided out a disenchant for another paralaxx wave. Also take note that he lost to confidant in 2 of those games...

4?-0...2-0 and 2-0

Semis: Matt - High Tide = My Favorite

Game one I mulligan down to 5 which still didn't have land but had 2 mothers and I was like "whatever". I is almost impossible for me to win without geddon and rule anyway. So With that hand I didn't draw a land till my turn 3 which ended up being a tomb...Yay? I played a mask and lost right after. Game 2 I sided in the same stuff I did against Rich. This game was brutal. 2 rules and a geddon plus sword of f/i on isamaru. The End. Game three I kept a hand with 1 plains because it had a rule and 2 geddon in it. The game lasted 10 turns. I did not see another land the whole game. I saw a chrome mox around turn 8. The end for that too.

1-2

So I walked with 4th and $15 store credit which I added $5 to so I could complete our set of taigas. I also picked up a mogg fanatic and 2 kird apes. For some reason we didn't have a set of those. I was good day in all but I would have liked not getting land screwed. My teamate who got 3rd got us 2 fetch lands as well so that helps...The End.
