1x Caravan Escort
1x Skywatcher Adept
1x Emerge Unscathed
1x Distortion Strike
2x Knight of Cliffhaven
1x Coralhelm Commander
1x Ikiral Outrider
1x Time of Heroes
1x Hada Sky Patrol
1x Champion Drakes
1x Regress
2x Dawnglare Invoker
1x Affa Guard Hound
3x Venerated Teacher
1x Makindi Griffin
1x Kabira Vindicator
1x Deathless Angel
9x Plains
8x Island

Round1 vs UGW wall

1st time I saw someone drafting this kind of deck, featuring a bunch of wall in UGW, game 1 I'm too fast for his wall to cope up, game 2 I got flooded and only manage to get him to 6 before his walls makes it impossible for me to get some damage and I died to keening stone soon afterward game3 I sided in all my distortion strike, and just when he seems to have settled, I topdecked one and kill him

Round2 vs BUR

1st game I mulliganed to 4, and hold the ground for a couple of turn with teacher and escort both equiped with hyena umbra, he has literally nothing, I started attacking on the air and he's death in a couple of turn

2nd game is even easier as he is stuck at 3 land and I killed him before he finds the 4th

Round3 vs UWg leveler

1st game I kept a hand of plains, a bunch of white cards and 1 blue cards, I drew 4-5 of another blue cards and no island, I noted puncturing light on his deck

2nd game I kept what appears to be a god hand..... with 1st turn skywatcher//2nd knight of cliffhaven// 3rd teacher//4th vindicator and 5th teacher, he died on that 5th turn

3rd game......... is funny, as he draws much more cards than I am via looter + recurring insight and I got flooded, but my "refusing to attack" dawnlight invoker, just keeps taping his dude until he conceded the game, with 4-5 cards on his library
