Results

• Round 1 vs. WG: Basically lost to Wildborn Preserver + Guidemother making a VERY LARGE creature very quickly. It’s a combo! Felt like I had to side out Trapped in the Tower since oppo had three Guidemothers to jump them and break the enchantment. Very flavorful! But very frustrating.
• Round 2 vs. WB: Except it was a weird flavor of control? I drew my removal and got rid of the Lion’s Claw and oppo never found an answer to 2/1s. In game 2 I have 5 draw steps without mana, but I got the oppo with an Outflank. Then Lucky Clover + two Foulmire Knights nugged oppo down from 14 life. Which, won’t lie, felt super sweet.
• Round 3 vs. RG. Oppo leapt out quickly but their Grumgully was not long for this world. Sadly, Torbran (all red deals +2) and Syr Carah (tap for 1 damage) was a brutal combo. Giant-Killer took care of it, but I flooded out. In game 2, oppo got stuck on 3 lands and I ground them down. In game 3 the opportunistic dragon snatched my blocker and the Torbran was really socking me.

Learnings

Felt like it underperformed a little, but not a lot. I definitely needed some Verity Circles (or whatever the +1/+1 counters) to help with the oomph.
