di N.D. - 05/02/2015

Italian version

Ciao dear old school players,

I'm really excited, we started playing just last November at the old school format(http://oldschool-mtg.blogspot.it/), in a short time we managed to create a really great group of players.

In Ravenna we are about 15 regular players, we play every two weeks and each of us always want to change and improve ours decks, in fact on 4 tournaments won four different players, this shows how difficult it is to win here...

After 3 times in top4, I managed to bring home the title, to be honest, I did so many top8 in important tournaments as PTQ, but the satisfaction of winning in the old school format is priceless, I will tell you briefly my rounds:

The tournamenent was host to magic time/magic time Ravenna 

12 players at the start, the metagame was various:

RUG aggro, white wennie, monored burn, UR burn, UGW ernhamGeddon, monored Atog/artifact, UWR Control, UR skyes, RG Aggro

take a look to some pictures of the event:

1°Round: Giorgio Blosi - RG aggro - 2-0

Game1: i keep an optimal hand, he mulliganed to 5, we start the war of Kird Ape   but he is penalized by mullingan an i won easy the game

Game2:Rethe war of Kird Ape  , but this time i play also a Serendib Efreet  and a nice Ancestral Recall , follewd byRegrowth  for Ancestral Recall ...
draw 6 more card of your opponent can be useful XD

2°Round: Cesare Melandri - UR control burn - 1-2

Game1: he start, he begin with a "Library of Alexandria"... :(

he draws 2 cards in turn throughout the game, I can not find answers quickly

Game2: i start with Kird Ape , "Serendib Efreet", "Ancestral Recall" while he does not see "Library of Alexandria" he does not find the answers to stop me

Game3: i restart with Kird Ape  and 1 "Birds of Paradise" but he cast above 2 "Lightning Bolt", then i drawn only blue cards but no blue lands... color screw for me... GG

3°Round: Andrea Morrone - UWR control "the deck" 2-0

Game1: you can see the video,  after resolution of "Chaos Orb The match went well, I continued to beat and I brought home the victory

game2: I make a really fast start, he struggled to resist, plays he play "Circle of Protection: Red" but he has problems with mana and continues to take damage with "City of Brass", when he got tapped out for play "Recall" then i end up the game with a useful "Fireball"

take a look first game:

4°Round: Esposito Simone - Monored Atog/artifact

Game1: I start with the usual Kird Ape and "Serendib Efreet", he play at the 2° turn "Uthden Troll i use my "Lightning Bolt on it, so he couldn't regenerate, then he play so many artifact followed by an "Atog, some removal like Fireball  on my creatures, he counts all the artifact to sacrifice on atog but he would bring down just to 2... so he can just attack for 1 damage, i stap and play Control Magic  on Atog  then i take the match with atog and 2 Mishra's Factory
