Notes
 
2-1 vs. Red/White
1. Kept a 1-land hand on a mulligan to 6 and got blown out.
2. Very close game - down to 7-7, but I had the removal & creatures needed.
3. Started off by going down to ~12-20, but then drew into removal & threats while he drew lands, and killed him without taking any more damage.

2. 2-0 vs. Blue/Black
Both games reasonably close, but I had the stronger threats.
Pretty awesome finish to game 1. I had Goldnight Castigator in hand, and he had ~10 life, but I was at 15 and he had 4-5 creatures with skulk and <=2 power, which made them unblockable, but he couldn't attack because I would counterattack and kill him. Instead, I attacked with my ground creatures to force trades, then next turn played a Skin Invasion on his Nibilisk of Dusk (last creature) and attacked with Goldnight Castigator. He went to 3, and was forced to attack me for 2 * 2 = 4, but without any spells or answers I killed him next turn with Goldnight Castigator.
Another good play was in game 2, where I put Skin Invasion on my own Bloodmad Vampire. Kill it by blocking, and I kill one of your creatures *and* get a new creature. Don't kill it, and it deals lots of damage to you and gets bigger. Pretty nice trick.

3. 2-0 vs. Green/Red Werewolves (Peter Hines @ Bethesda Gaming)
I won both games reasonably convincingly. He had a 6/6 trample at one point, but I could just leave Rancid Rats on the defense and that nullified most good attacks for him. Eventually I was able to flood the board with creatures and actually attack with the rats until I could swing for lethal. Pretty much the same story both games.

Take-aways: Murderous Compulsion is great. Ember-Eye Wolf is underrated. Olivia's Bloodsworn is also quite good. Skin Invasion is a lot of fun, reasonably flexible, and often quite good (at worst, play it on your own creature to benefit when it dies). Rancid Rats are great and shut the opponent out of attacking.

Prize: 60 tickets = 6 packs of SOI. Pulled some pretty decent stuff from those 6 packs + prizes from Pandemonium's dice game: Avacyn, Jace, 2x Cryptolith Rites, Seasons Past, Declaration in Stone, foil Falkenrath Gorger, two shadowlands.
