I had played a version of
the deck before, but I did not have my Ambassador
Laquatus in the deck.
We had 10 players for this
Friday Night Magic. We played 4 rounds of swiss with no
play-off.
First round I played against
Kithkins, mono-white.
First game, he started out
fast. First turn Goldmeadow Harrier, second turn Knight
of Meadowgrain. I had a Judge of Currents out second
turn, he Weight of Conscience it from the game, I was
able to stablize after round 5 at 7 life and he was at
28 life with Douser and Elixir and a Drowner of Secrets
and several other Merfolk out and milled his deck.
Second game he won with a Door of destinies out and
Preeminent Captain and many other Kithkins to swarm me
and win. Serendib could not completing counteract the
Doors effect. Last game I took a beating again from
Kithkin comming out fast, once I stablize again with a
Douser and a Merfolk Thaumaturgist, they started to fall
like flies. He scoop because I also had out a Secret and
I was able to return the Summon the School every turn.
2-1. 1st round win.
Second round. Paired down to
play against one of our younger players who is still
learning how to play Magic. His deck was a r/w big
creature deck. Was a interesting game one. I was stuck
on 3 lands and I had out a Elixir, Douser, Judge of
Currents, and one Drowner. He had Grinning Ignus and a
Windborn Muse. I was milling 4 cards a turn and gaining
4 life also. He played a land and said go, this went on
about 5 or 6 turns then he drops a Scourge of Kher
Ridges, now I was a little concern because I was still
stuck on 4 lands, and a hand full of Merfolk. He did
nothing, because he could have activate Scourge's first
ablilty. Next turn he played Resurrection and brought
back Reya Dawnbringer, who was just hanging out in the
graveyard. He finally used Scourge's first ablility, but
I was able to reply my Douser and Currents the following
turn, I was still stuck on four lands, I survied one
assault for all of his creatures and I finally milled
the rest of his deck for the win. He got bored and did
not want to play the second game, thank goddness. 2-0.
2nd round win, 2-0.
Third round. played against
r/b Goblin Rogues. His deck is off the beaten path.
First turn each game he started out with a Prickly
Boggart in play. First game I started off pretty good
against him, with all of the right Merfolk, until he
brought out Lightning Crafter with a Thornbite Staff in
play, my army of Merfolk was gone in a flash. Had
nothing but a Condemn in my hand to deal with that crazy
Shaman if it was dumb enough to attack, I was not so
lucky. Second game was good. Was able to get the right
Merfolk out and deck him. The Dousers and Thaumaturgist
keep his Goblins off the board. Third game he got all
the right answers for my poor Merfolk, He killed every
one of them and the only Fodder Launch won him the game.
1-2 games. 3rd round loss, 2-1.
Fourh and last round. Played
against g/r/w, its a Doran deck, but he only owns 2
Dorans. Both games went quick, he was able to kill my
Merfolk with Nameless Inversions and Shriekmaws, Doran
came out the first game and finished me off in two
turns. Second game he drop a third turn Ajani Goldmane
and started to pump his creatures and give them
vigilance until end of turn. Birds of Paradise on some
Treefolk like Leaf-Crowned Elder and Reach of Branches
tokens, played of the Elder Kinship was not good. My
little Merfolk were ready to return to the high seas far
away from all of these crazy trees. I guess Merfolk
don't use axes where they come from. Oh well it was fun.
Games 0-2, fourth round loss, 2-2.
Not bad for no sideboard and
I threw it together the day before.
Hope this gets posted I have
not seen a tournament report on POJO for Magic the
Gathering in along time.
Maybe others will take some
time to do the same.
If they let me I will do
this again for next FNM.
Thanks,
Miguel
