Other, than "Oink!" None. I thought I was safe for a while, but I guess not so much...
 

Oversoul

The Tentacled One
Yeah, I thought you were safe too, but I conveniently topdecked the Abandon...

I'll attack you with my Mogg Fanatic. If you still have no responses, I'll cast Resurrection and put the Thran War Machine back into play, then end my turn.

Fine.... Have to stop the bleeding and give you an excuse to blow that disk now...

Untap, Draw, Play Forest, Play Verdant Force, done. Get a Saproling during your upkeep (unless you do something else)...

Looking ahead at my next few cards... I'm not getting anything to deal with 5 a turn fast enough... GG I'll Draw first this game - and I'm out til next Monday... I hit a land wall like you couldn't believe.... I'm still holding 2 lands...

Good game.

Wow. When you dropped the Cloud of Faeries I thought I was dead for sure. I figured if my deck was going to beat yours it would have to control the early and midgame. But my Thawing Glaciers coupled with a few lucky topdecks and your bad draws made it possible for me to make a comeback. My analysis so far is that Disk is very good (of course). Thawing Glaciers is excellent over time but is also in opposition to Cataclysm, which I held in my hand the entire game. Also, Verdant Force is scary. If you'd had too much more to keep that card protected, I'd have been a goner.

After seeing that this deck actually has some cohesion, I'm liking my chances a bit more now, but I think your deck will do better in the future as well and I'd still favor you to win this match.

Anyway, I suppose I'll begin round two, as you said you'd draw first...

Strip Mine, go.

It just had a bad interaction with Thawing Glaciers. Had I fetched out all of my basic lands and then casted Cataclysm, BB would recover his manabase eventually and I wouldn't. I was still ready to use it if he saved the Verdant Force from Unsummon, though.
