Notes
 
2-0 vs a RB deck run by a kid - only playing for a month (thought you can discard cards from the battlefield to Zombie Infestation - wtf?). Of course the one time I try a mill deck my first opponent runs a 60-card deck *facepalm*. Still managed to pull off Visions of Beyond for 3 :D
2-1 vs a 4-color deck. Close, long, and tense (I lost game 1). Brutal match.
1-2 vs a WU aggro deck with a Frost Titan (never cast). Game 1 he conceded within 1 turn of both mill and damage death. Games 2 and 3 I both mulliganed to 5 (1- and 0- land hands). Game 2 I was mana-flooded hard and both games I just couldn't keep up with his speed (both were perfect 20-0 games). My Ice Cages sucked these two games.
0-2 vs a RG aggro deck with Crimson Mage. Made some bad misplays (who would have thought a Brindle Boar deserved a Cancel?) and had some more mulliganing problems. Not even close (did a total of 9 damage to him in 2 games).

General conclusion: I probably built too slow of a deck. Mill is probably not viable in Limited unless you get Jace. Probably should have SB'ed in more of my early stuff against the aggro.

Deck VIPs: Sengir Vampire (obv), Royal Assassin (combos with Crown and Siren)
Disappointments: Erasure (a bit slow), Visions of Beyond (at times I was pushing myself to activate it when I probably could have been attacking instead ... and was it even worth that much effort?), Gravedigger
Memorable plays: Getting Crown of Empires + Royal Assassin after the Assassin was bounced twice. EVIL.

trades:
- My Sword of Feast and Famine for 3x Beast Within + 3x Grand Architect + 2x Birds of Paradise + Buried Alive + Yavimaya Coast + Llanowar Wastes
- My Mimic Vat + Chancellor of the Tangle for Coat of Arms + Ulash the Hate Seed + Isperia
- My Omnath + Vorinclex + foil Sengir Vampire for Ratchet Bomb + Slag Fiend + Phyrexian Ingester + Ion Storm
