Notes
 
Main SB: in - Corrosive Gale, Fulgent Distraction, and/or Cathedral Membrane, out - Trigon of Rage, Phyrexian Rager, Glint Hawk

Started black, but went into white since black seemed a bit sparse (ended up being 4 out of 6 at our table drafted some black). 43 cards in pool because the guy beside me picked a land over an Evil Presence in pack 1.

2-1 vs a RB deck with battle cry (Pest, Wardriver) and infect (Flensermite, 2x Ogre Menial, Exoskeleton and a few Virulent Wounds). One game I was overwhelmed by his removal, the others he complained of bad mana screw (didn't seem bad though). Managed to eke through some tough decisions in Game 3 to take it. Ended up having a flying Leonin attack with 2 Trigons to take him from 0 to 8 poison.
1-2 vs a UR deck with fliers, Chancellor of the Spires (never cast) Thundering Tanadon and Viridian Claw. One loss I couldn't deal with the Tanadon/Claw combo. The other I stupidly attacked when I shouldn't have - not realizing I didn't have enough untapped to cast a blocker. Would probably still have lost though. (In our "for fun" game, 14 of my lands came up in the top 25 cards - [incl. the 7 milled by CotS])
2-1 vs a UB deck with counters, bounce, Grafted Exoskeleton, Vault Skirge and Spire Serpent. First game went quite long. His early Vault Skirge got him up to 33 life, and the combo of a metalcrafted Spire Serpent and Grafted Exoskeleton took a lot of effort to deal with. Ended up conceding to a Decimator Web. Second game was pretty long too, but I was already feeling the tension - would I even be able to finish game 2 and hopefully draw? His early Oculus got through a bunch of times but after that I had Shrine tokens to chump his stuff with. I was waiting for a while for him to equip his Skirge or Serpent with the Exoskeleton so  Icould Fulgent Distraction, but it didn't happen. I ended up blocking the Serpent intentionally with my (once-recurred) Reaper of Sheoldred so he would have 7 poison, then winning with a Caress of Phyrexia. Third game started with just over 5 minutes left so we both were rushing. I managed to get great early cards (double Leonin) while he apparently didn't.
2-0 vs a GUB infect deck. Wasn't very pretty. Game 1 I had a lot of recursion (Cur, Plunder) and enough removal to allow me to be aggressive with my guys. Game 2 I got 2 Trigons of Rage out and the Pinions.

overall 3-1, 3rd out of 12

Deck VIPs: Trigons, Bladed Pinions
Disappointments: Glint Hawk, Go for the Throat (somewhat due to its inability to kill ACs like Tanadon or Skirge, it still did well other times)
Memorable plays: Caress win (see above), rushing third game win (see above), stomping the opponent in match 4 (he's a good player who often wins)
