Game Day

Yup. It's that time again. Time for me to lie to you about how it was me against the store and all my trusty little goblins raged through dozens of enemies like wurmcoil, Gideon, walls, titans, vampires, elves, and the elusive baneslayer. How we bathed in their blood and came out on top winning first place and taking home the gold. Aahhhhh yeaaaah. But sadly no. I'm here to report my games on Game Day at Crazy Freds.
For the first round I got paired up with David, a thick asian guy who always jokes that losing to me is the worst this ever. Which is what happened the first game, opening rebirth followed by guide then wardriver with a bushwhacker kicked really does end the game quickly. I didn't give him the chance to pop his quest. Game 2 I kept a weird hand cause I thought it would pay off. Which it did, I managed to crush his argentum, but I was hardly playing any creatures, and his firewalker and cat that exiled my pest kept swinging in. Death was imminent. I managed to mass for 4, and it killed the firewalker where I was able to play wardriver and bushwhacker and swing in for 10 putting him at 7, but I was at 3 and I died. Game 3 was cute and fun. Pest and thopter swung in for 1, then there was a guide, then wardriver, which got murdered. Then there was another wardriver and a bushwhacker and I had him so close to death that he just sat there wondering if there was a way to block so that he could still win. It was my turn again and I had enough power to kill him, but to add insult to injury I topdecked a bushwhacker and did more damage than was necessary. 2-1
Round 2 and it's up against Patrick, I think, and his rogue vampire deck. His turn 2 blood seeker really did some damage to me. But I wasn't gonna be the one to remind him, since it was a may effect. In total the seeker did 7 damage to me, including the 3 tokens. But I was able to get in there for more than the number I was playing, dealing 8-10 damage a time. Barely even saw his deck. Game 2 I managed to play memnite and rebirthed thopter, before he got blood seeker out. After an opening like that this was already game over since I knew he had no board wipes. After swinging 4 I dropped wardriver and swung for 10 next turn, but a token got blocked and he took 8. Then he swung all in on me getting me to 12, and left a guy to block. I wasn't having that, arc trail the guy and swing in for 12. There will be no prisoners here. 2-0.
Round 3 and undefeated. Such a great feeling. And then I hear it, "Perez vs Kellogg." On fuckin Game Day too. Alright, I know the rules here, get him by turn 4 or not at all. So I did my best, guide, wardriver, rebirth, bushwhacker, and then I got him to 1. To 1! Then he day'd. I was already in topdeck mode, trying to draw an answer, even just a little burn, but I was doomed. Next came Gideon, and elspeth soon followed. I had him to 1 and he made a comeback. Game 2. I barely put a dent in him. With the condemns and firewalkers I couldn't do shit. I wasn't controlled from turn 4, I was controlled since turn 1. He already had the upper hand, and then he dropped the wurmcoil. Well fuck that shit, I'm gonna commence scoop phase right now. 0-2 and I was certain this was gonna fall out of placing. At least none of my earlier opponents pussied out and dropped.
4th and final round. Can't fuck around here. I'm gonna get in there and fuck shit up hardcore status. So I think his name his Brian and guess what kind of deck he's running, the fuckin infect and defile box that you can just buy over the counter and play. And then he bought a few other cards and added those. Which just goes to show that those boxes have ruined the fuckin game for people who spent months of hard-work, sweat, blood and tears into making this deck the way it is, and then just to have it bought over the counters. This guy went 2-1 so far with this deck. Then he faced a real version and it put him to 2-2. I do not approve of this shit. I don't even feel like reporting this game. Both games were over in 4 turns, even with his smothers. Surprised him both games with my explosive opening play and all the creatures I had. Ok I'm done now. 2-0. Can I have my black sun now?
So I ended the day with a 3-1, a total of 6 wins and 3 losses. 66.66% win percentage. Not bad. Not bad. In the end I got 3rd place. Comic odd crew really raped shit today. Tommy got 1st, Lahrell with the 2nd and David right behind me with the 4th. Should've realized earlier that there was a problem with the prize money though, since there was none. Nobody was allowed to use their store credit so Fred pocketed $100 that day.
