didn't open a dual, but i've been fairly lucky so far.

round one g1 i play and mull a 6 land ironclaw orc hand; i get some more action and go. i drop lyre he drops mount. he drops sorcerer i drop thrull. he drop another mount and i have gangrenous. he casts fetish on a mount and swings, opting not to save his enchanted mount. i wipe his board with zombie and drop fiend. he drops shyft. i swing, threatening with lyre and sac both saclands to drop shade. he has krovikan vampire and roterothopter. he chumps with thopter and i drop ironclaw. he casts necrite and flares fiend. i swing with shade and orc and he chumps shade with necrite. i drop another ironclaw and pass. he swings with shyft putting me at 9 to his 13. i get my third land out again and swing with fiend, shade, and both ironclaws. he chumps shade with vampire and goes to 6. i drop familiar, he draws and concedes.

g2 i mull. he drops brine shaman, i drop brassclaw. he has boon and i drop general. he has another shaman and bureaucrats and misses land 4 while i drop thrull. he has elite and i have steed. he does nothing and i drop sentinel. he drops thopter and it looks like the stall will end. i drop fiend. he gets an island out. i swing with fiend sentinel and steed. he blocks elite on fiend and shaman on steed. he then banishings sentinel, sacs the shaman to kill steed and sacs the bureaucrats to save the elite. i drop ironclaw. he has mount and i drop another ironclaw and i'm at 16 to his 18. he has shyft and it's looking bad. at some point i attack with brassclaw and pump with thrull to kill the mount. i drop land 7 and dead. he swords dead and i make a graveborn to chump. i have dragon left in my hand and am just waiting for land 8. i drop spirit. i drop crusader and he has vampire. i get land 8 and forget about shaman's second ability, FROWN. he has spellcaster and i drop shade, but he flares thopter and puts me away.

g3 i have a nice hand of ironclaw, gangrenous, dragon and lands. he mulls and drops thopter. i drop ironclaw and he legacys. i drop zombie and he swords it then drops shaman. i drop dead and he drops mount and i'm getting worried. i have thrull and a sacland and he has shyft. ugh. i swing with ironclaw before i decide i don't want to sac thrull and lose it then drop spirit. i drop dragon and swing him to 8 while i'm at 20. i attack with spirit and dragon. he double blocks dragon and blocks spirit with shaman. he pumps to kill dragon and boons shyft. i drop fiend and he drops another shyft. i have shade and pass. i pass my turn without dropping ironclaw and on his eot i create two graveborn tokens. i swing with dead, spirit, fiend, shade, and the tokens. he blocks big shyft on spirit, mount on fiend, shyft on shade, and thopter on token. after some pumping and stuff i have dead, fiend, and the thrulled shade to his empty board. on my turn i put it away.

round two g1 i keep a land heavy hand with general and dead. he has aeolipile and i have thrull. he has lyre and i have steed. he rays my steed and blocks the thrull. i drop dead. he taps out for drake and i create a token and swing with everything putting him to 11 then drop general. he passes back and i pass as well. he piles general and taps out for wind spirit. i create a token on his eot and meteor storm away his team, swing, and take him to 4. he drops his first plains and casts skycaptain. i pump my steed but draw burst for the win.

g2 i mull into a reasonable hand without mountains. he has javelineers and i miss land drop 3. he has spellcaster and i miss land drop 4. he has another spellcaster and even with swamp 3 i pack it in.

g3 i keep a risky 2 lander. he has javelineer and i have lyre. he has bureaucrats and i have general. he has spellcaster and i use a sacland to meteor storm his board. he casts simulacrum and i drop dead. he flares dead and casts reprisal on it and attacks for two, putting me to 16 with him at 18. i drop sentinel and he has another javelineers. i drop fiend and leave mana up for lyre. he lets simulacrum die and rays fiend, attacks and flips, and then javelineers it. i accidentally f6 and don't save it with the lyre. it turns out ok because he's tapped out and i draw a land to swing for 7 and burst him for 4 and the win.

round three g1 he has thopter and i have ironclaw. he has hunter and i drop another ironclaw. he has spider and i drop lyre. he blocks so i off spider. he has lore and i swing with both orcs and meteor storm after combat to wipe his board. he has mammoth and i drop steed. he has zombies and hunter and i have dead. he's at 8 to my 11. i can't draw swamp 3 for shade. i make a token to kill his mammoth on his next attack and then have a zombie of my own. he has vampire and i flub by attacking and giving him the orcs but killing his zombie. he swings and giant growths then stampedes for the win.

g2 i got disconnected for sideboarding and keep a risky hand with only black mana. he has thallid and i have general. he has familiar and i have zombie. he has an advocate which is very unfortunate for me. i drop an ironclaw. he has a spider and i'm drawing nothing. on one attack he has two giant growths to save both of his guys and that's all she wrote.
