Okay, two VODs of a pair of matches. The first match Chris wins 2-1, and I make the stupidest play I've made in months (equipping my Phantasmal Image'd Catacomb Sifter, sacrificing the Scion to get the mana to do so - around 13:45). Chris is very understanding, but a minute later DJ Khaled congratulates me on having played myself. A Woodland Bellower and Titania team up to finish me off shortly after.

The second match I win 2-0, g1 off a very conveniently-topdecked Brainstorm and g2 I'm all in on the Overloaded Mizzium Mortars plan before I realize I need {R}{R}{R} for it and not {R}{R} so I just beat him into the ground with Clique and Polukranos.

I'm basically inaudible except when the music cuts out, sorry! I got a cheap desktop mic recently and I'm still fiddling with the settings. Previously I'd been using a 2x mic boost in OBS but I forgot to apply it to the new mic, so all my talked strategy is basically just there to fill in gaps between songs. Still, though, I hope someone gets something outta them.
 
Again, grid drafting was TONNES O' FUN (tm). I especially like the lack of a color in the card pool, but no matter how hard I try (started with the notion to try RB-based), I cannot seem to assemble an aggressive deck. Here is my pool/deck. If this was a real MTGO Limited option (with ULD after-draft), I think Wizards would make bank (but we'll probably never seen something so "ambitious"). Thanks to safra for hostin'!
