@BlackLotusIsPurple: Thanks for pointing that out. Made the correction


Anyway, im in the mood for a tourney report, so here it is

Using Next Level Doomsday Gush Storm

Round 1 vs Jesper(Ichorid)
Game 1: Insane 1st turn- opening of Street Wraith into Demonic Tutor, USea, Lotus Petal(1), Dark Ritual(2), Dark Ritual(3), Tutor(4) for Yawgmoth's Will(5), Petal(6), Ritual(7), Ritual(8), Tutor(9) for Tendrils of Agony(10)
Game 2: 1st turn Narcomeba for the zombie player, while having a turn 2 Tinker for BSC. He blocked BSC with Nacromeba while firing a Darkblast. The dredge card met a Mental Misstep. Jesper- "Eeeew Legacy card!"

1-0-0

Round 2 vs Vince (Oath)
Game 1: Two early Oath of Druids hit the board but without a Forbidden Orchard to force out a fatty. I won a counter war for Ancestral Recall. He resolved a Balance in the hopes getting back the advantage from the AR earlier resolved. A timely Chain of Vapor for one of the Oath of Druids forced the discard to 2 hands. Left in my hand were Tinker and Yawgmoth's Will. My turn saw me draw a Lotus then Tinker for BSC and Will for Time Walk
Game 2: An early Tinker for Inkwell Leviathan with counter protection afterwards proved too much to handle.
Game 3: A long game 3 as time is called. On the turn 1, I Praetor's Grasp his Tinker. Turn 3 saw me using his Tinker for BSC. Turn 5 saw BSC turning sideways for the match win    

2-0-0

Round 3 vs Jay Pang (No Cat $tax)
Game 1: It was a no contest as i saw a turn 1 Resistor followed up by a Metamorphed Resistor. Steel Hellkite followed suit and pounded me into oblivion
Game 2: Another no contest as a Thorn managed to sneak through. Made a mistake of using Hurkyl's for FOW. A golem soon was beating me up with a wire keeping my resources locked up. A COTV for 2 finished me up. I was holding 2 Hurkyl's Recall  

2-1-0

Round 4 vs Marcelle (Steel City Vault)
Game 1: Almost an error as i mistakenly kept a 1 land hand and lotus petal with Jace, Vampiric, FOW and Merchant Scroll. My 2nd turn saw me Vamp a Black Lotus and into a Jace TMS. I stabilized, a Tinker for Memory Jar got thru for him but minimal harm was done. Allowed a Time Vault to land. But Voltaic Key via Demonic Tutor met my Mental Misstep. Proceded to win via the Tendrils route
Game 2: Managed to land an early Necropotence into Doomsday-Gush. Standard pile of AR, Lotus, Petal, Yawgmoth's Will then Tendrils of Agony.

3-1-0

Round 5 vs Andrew (Trygon Jazerator)
ID to Top 8

3-1-1

Round 6 (Top 8) vs Jay (Pitch Storm)
Game 1: Recovered from a disastrous opening hand again. The black Skull landed, netting me a huge number of cards, eventually setting me up for a nasty Tendrils for 20. A Mental Misstep stoped a Dark Ritual that could have done significant damage on me.
Game 2: Necropotence strikes again. But almost a miss... after setting up Doomsday and a Gush for AR and Black Lotus, my AR got Misdirected. But luck was on my side as my AR produced 3 lands for Jay. Timetwister was on my hand which allowed me to recover and return back key cards in my hand. Mental Misstep was again key as it stopped a Brainstorm which would have netted him a FOW for a key spell of mine. Proceeded to Tendrils for a lot.

Round 7 (Semis) vs Andrew (Trygon Jace)
Game 1: Error after error after error. As mentioned in Andrew's tourney report, I lacked one mana to fire up a Tendrils. This happened after a Necro and when i threw away Vampiric Tutor, Mana Crypt and Sol Ring in favor of Fastbond and FOW. On my hand were Timetwister, Ancestral Recall, Dark Ritual, FOW, FOW, Fastbond, Yawgmoth's Will. I then allowed a Jace TMS to sneak through even though i have several FOWs (thinking i will win the next turn). I missed the storm, tried to Walk another turn but refilling my hand through Necro. He recovered nicely with Jace and won using Trygon.
Game 2: Silly me. Another match given away. I made the mistake of Forcing a Demonic Tutor that was backed up by Mana Drain, instead of allowing DT to resolve and using FOW on the card he will tutor up(Andrew wouldn't have been able to use Mana Drain). When DT resolved he tutored for Voltaic Key(with Drain mana waiting) with Time Vault already waiting in the floor. BUT... before all this happened, i failed to notice that i was already capable of using Gush, Doomsday and Yawgmoth's Will with a yard full of goodies (Black Lotus, Gush, AR, etc). I was too busy using Jace's fateseal (at 9 already) and playing control(I was holding 1 FOW, 2 Mental Missteps, Chain of Vapor, DD, YW). Hmph

Anyway, ended up a good 4th. Mental Misstep is a Vintage Bomb IMHO!

Congrats on the top 4 Ching.

How was Street Wraith? Was it better than Gitaxian Probe? Was the argument being un-counterable and avoiding CotV versus extra information or were their other reasons?

Thanks A-1

My previous built had Probe instead of Wraith and it actually served me well. Better info, additional storm. This time around, the tournament had several workshops running with multiple Jester Caps(sad sacs are also aplenty) and i would not want to be caught flat footed with only a few outs. Also i wanted 6 win conditions as tribute to Navy Seal's Team 6. The Wraiths could have been Confidants but i was only running 14 lands (not to mention no Moxen) and the DC's still on transit (shipping) Razz
