match #1:

i got matched up vs a much younger player, he played a deck that wasnt his 
but he could play it, yes he could!!
it was a b/u psychatog deck. i guess every1 kinda knows that deck. i got beat 
up twice by upheaval and psychatog. though i started both games quick with bodyguard 
and erhnam. he returned'em all before dmg was dealt. poor matchup for me, 2-0 loss

match #2:
got matched up vs a guy as old as me.he played a madness deck. i started quite slow 
with a mana screw, and he killed me with rootwalla and 
mongrel.second game I took back by playing fast treats that were bigger than 
his creatures. 1-1 .
last game was close one, but eventually he tried playing bigger guys. guys like 
shivan wurm, he returned rootwalla and played it again with 
madness, those shivans were too much for my less big creatures. a close 2-1 
loss.

match #3:

its starting to piss me off, cause i cant seem to get a win.
so the owner decides to give me a by. not that i like it.


match #4:

got matched up again vs a madness deck. but this time im gonna win!! first game was 
easily won with erhnam, brawn in graveyard and elephant 
guide.
second game he took back with fast creature rush and finishing me with 
direct dmg.
last game i got really lucky!! a mongrel and bodyguard in opening hand, 
meaning i could overwhelm him fast.
the third turn i drew armadillo cloack and enchanted my mongrel with it. the 
life gain and the dmg he took won me this game.a 2-1 win.

you'd probably think i got a last place, but I still was 8th. not enough to win 
something, though i was surprised that there were people 
that finished under me.I think i didnt do so bad after all. :)
