DOOOOOOOM!!!

Magic night with Sarrazin and /dev/null playing and Serdic as spectator. Much beer was consumed and pizza was eaten. Good times were had.

The first game went pretty quickly. I don't recall who won. The second game was a marathon, though, especially considering how much acceleration was in play. I was playing my mono-blue control/frustration deck against /dev/null's black and Sarrazin's green/red elfish deck. The blue deck worked pretty well; control magic and counters to keep threats at bay, Tims to smoke creatures and pick away at life totals. I don't think /dev/null liked it too much when I used Recantation to bounce all of his land, though.

I got Sarrazin down to 1 life and /dev/null to 2, with three Tims in play; next turn, I win the game. /dev/null spent quite a bit of time tapping the top of his deck and telling me that my Doom was in there, and it was comin'. DOOOOOM!!! So he drops a silly artifact to boost his life. I kinda want to end the game now, so I use my one counterspell to smoke it.

Bastard was just using that to flush out my counterspell so he could Soul Burn me. Nothing I can do; I'm out.

DOOOOOOOM!!!

The third game I used my new Orzhov deck. I got to put Yosei, the Morning Star into play when I already had one in play, and used the two goes-to-the-graveyard abilities to tap out everybody's creatures and have time to attack willy-nilly, first /dev/null then Sarrazin. I drew Masako the Humourless and cast her in response to his attack against my field of tapped-out creatures, which probably hurt.

There are so many times when a deck just doesn't work at all, it's nice when everything clicks.

I had a great time. We need to do that again.

Serdic was just a spectator for this one, but he's requested that I build him a green/white deck so he can give it a try next time out. Said deck is now good to go.

Wolfgang is coming by sometime today. He may even be bringing food. Mmmm, food.

Also, WOOHOO MUIS!
