round one i played against another esper deck. g1 i see time sieve, parasitic strix, thresher, unsummon, call to heel, and windwright. i get a slow start but eventually get out some substantial creatures and cumber stone and he just can't deal with my fliers. g2 he gets mana screwed and i curve into gargoyle.

round two i play a 5c jund deck. he has out an early leech and rioters. i take a bunch of damage, but come back with two cormorants followed by plowbeast. he can't attack profitably and doesn't draw anything so i just hammer it home. g2 he has a nuts start with leech into yearling into cyclops. i have a slow hand and die horribly. g3 he stumbles on mana and i have dredgscape into trailblazer into screecher. he gets out a cyclops and late leech but he really can't race well.

round three i play a naya-jund deck. g1 he has infi removal and i draw infi lands. g2 i'm doing ok and beating down with gargoyle until he drops where ancients tread and just burns me out in three turns while i draw lands.
