Tournament Report for Type 1 in Mississauga

Saturday morning Tim, Mark, Lloyd and myself headed into Mississauga to play some type 1. I was playing Keeper, Tim played Keeper, Lloyd playing Void and Mark played Stacker. We got to the store and I was able to do a little trading with the store for a couple of Fetch lands. Then it was off
for the tournament.

Round 1:
Played against Lloyd. I ruined him. They were long games but there wasn't much he could do. He never got a Void into play until it didn't matter. I had moxen and a Zuran Orb. Played Balance sac'd all my land to the orb and he lost all his creatures and land. He never recovered.

Round 2:
Played against Tim. Keeper vs Keeper. This always happens... We drive for hours and only play against who we playtest against. I don't have a very good road record for playing against Tim in a tournament. He has beat me more times than I've beaten him. But it is always fun. Game 1 Tim has the game in control. Then it's gone. I draw a bunch of cards and play Morphling. His turn he draws a card and says go. I forgot about The Abyss on the table... Bye bye Morphling. So add a few turns to get another and then I finally win. In the second game I get a huge jump at the beginning of the match and was able to use that to win the game. Tim is very tough
to play against... Him and his Tundra that I think is a Mana Drain or a Force of Will...

Round 3:
Played against TNT. I lose and quick... Sideboard doesn't help me at all.

Round 4:
Played against a mono white deck... Kinda white weenie and kinda not. In the first match it was a back and forth match I had to get The Abyss into play to make his creatures go away. I drop Morphling and swing for the win.
I made some really bad mistakes in the second match... My opponent played slow, talked to his friends and other stuff... I didn't say anything I didn't get after him about this. This cost me the game. I also swords the wrong creature and the list goes on. he ends up winning the second match when time ran out.

I finished 5th. It wasn't bad considering I haven't played Keeper in about 8 months.

Thanks for everyones help with ideas on my Keeper deck!!!
