Alrighty, here is a post tournament report.
As sadfase as it makes me, I did not super #1 win. I did, however, come in the top 1/3rd of the pack so that makes me feel a little better.
My losses were to:
1) Charbelcher. Guy won the roll and went first. Proceeded to combo out turn 1. We go to game 2 and I side in Platinum Angels. I think about mulliganing until I get a Force of Will, but I have a decent hand; turn 2 Platinum Angel+Emrakul+Jin-Gitaxias sounds like an easy win. As I'm still considering mulliganing for the Force of Will or not, he mulls to 6 and then to 5. I figure what the heck, I'll keep. I play land, go. He proceeds to draw and Charbelcher combo me with a starting hand of 5. Sigh.
2) Hivemind. I have *never* lost to Hivemind but this guy had "the nuts" both games. First game I Force of Willed his Show and Tell and then he Force of Willed my Force. Put down hivemind and Summoner's Pacted me. I have had Elvish Spirit Guide in the deck before, but had pulled them all out like the decklist below. Needless to say, I would have won that game had I had it in. Oh well. I side in Misdirection and Platinum Angels. I have a great hand; Force of Will and Platinum Angel and Show and Tell for T2. His hand is inarguably better with Double Force of Will+Hivemind+Titan Pact.
3) Stoneblade. I beat 2x other Stoneblades during the tournament but this guy beat me in 1 game and won because I was awarded a game loss for tardiness. I was about 5 seconds late to my seat. This was utter bullshit. Additionally the play for the 1 game I got went like this: "Land go." "Wasteland, kill your land, go." "Land go. [13 turns later] Wow that was the best 1 Wasteland ever, it killed all the land in my deck!" (seemingly). Yes I never drew a 3rd land out of 21 cards. Bullshit odds but it happens. So bullshit odds PLUS bullshit judge GARBAGE lead to loss here.
4) Reanimtor. This guy had a really great deck - like reaaaaally good. Unfortunately, there is no way this guy SHOULD have beaten me, but did. Game 1: "Underground Sea - Thoughtseize." He checks out my hand and gets rid of Show and Tell which was clearly the best play. On my turn I draw...Show and Tell! His turn, 2nd underground sea and...Thoughtseize again. This time I Force of Will the Thoughtseize and he Force of Wills my Force of Will. Garbage. Game 2: I have a good opening hand and will win T2 easily. His T1: "Thoughtseize". Sigh. I had the Misdirection for it, so I Misdirected it back to him but he Dazed my Misdirection. Sigh.
I hate to say it, but the way I felt about it was that all of my losses were to pure garbage that just won't happen twice in a row.
I have modified the deck to deal with "Garbage". In other news, every single time I resolved Hypergenesis I won. So that has to tell you something.
