After slogging through a color-screw (couldn't find red mana until the turn after an opponent cast Blood Moon anyway), I had multiple false starts and got to a pretty low life total. When I finally did cast Hypergenesis, it gave one of my opponents fuel to use Bolas's Citadel to kill me while...

This deck won another game, and yet again I didn't get to use Barren Glory at all. I deployed Academy Rector as a bit of a bluff. My opponents didn't fall for it, so I grabbed Fool's Demise, even though I didn't have Academy Researchers or anything to go with it. Well, one of my opponents cast...

Last night, I picked the wrong to try this deck. Not only was there an archenemy at the table, but my deck wasn't really equipped to fight him, and instead it mostly fed him more cards. He'd have won either way, and seemed way too into it. Pubstompers.

Another uneventful loss for this deck. I couldn't find a fifth land for either Jasmine Boreal or Phytohydra. I drew Taunting Elf, Shinen of Life's Roar, and Tempting Licid, so I could really force people to block, but that was about it.

Ah. I'd seen you popping up on the Fantasy Football threads enough that I figured maybe you were just lurking on the rest of the site. Welcome back? I guess I should say, as someone who has generally been rather vocally critical of what WotC call "Universes Beyond", that the community...

I got severely manascrewed with this deck. One of my opponents put me out of my misery. The game ran on for a while after that and this ended up being my last game of Wednesday night.

I had another game in which my repeated use of Windfall with Waste Not and Geth's Grimoire went crazy. This time, I didn't kill myself and even managed to make a huge zombie army. But of course I empowered one of my opponents to take me out, and once I was out of the way he was able to battle...

After durdling for a while in a game where I should have lost, I was left to my own devices for long enough to draw into Demonic Tutor when I had Sun Titan and Altar of Dementia. I grabbed Angelic Renewal and milled my opponents out. One of them had Blighsteel Colossus in his library, but no way...

Closed out my final game for last night by casting Wargate for Divine Intervention while I had Moat and Dueling Grounds both on the field to protect me. I think I took 1 damage before my next turn, at which point I cast Solitary Confinement. The game ended in a draw. We're back, baby!

Played this deck again last night. I actually managed to get Green Ward on the Leprechaun and then, once it was killed, brought it back and put Flickering Ward on it. Well, then it was stolen with Subjugate the Hobbits, and I died. Leprechauns aren't hobbits! Oh well.

Well, this deck's first game went kinda OK, sorta. I was able to protect myself somewhat early on, but once two of my opponents had killed each other, I didn't have sufficient defensive capabilities to deal with the third. Cataclysm was the only board wipe I drew, and I didn't want to cast it...

In crossing the last few Legends legends off my to-do list, I considered Chromium. Technically, I'd already put Chromium at the helm of an EDH deck once, but it was merely as a placeholder commander for Eriette, the Beguiler. Once I acquired a copy of Eriette, Chromium was pulled from the deck...

I just remembered another game with this deck, which must have been back on Tuesday of last week. My last remaining opponent was running a Phage deck, which was very cool. But my opponent was apparently fatigued, so he made a blunder. He attempted to set up one of his own lose-the-game triggers...

At long last, I am retiring this deck. It had a great run and got to go out on a win. I forget the details of the game, as it was a week ago. I think it was another Colossus Hammer victory. Anyway, I need to scrap this for parts, but it has been one of my favorite Legends legends decks.

Played this deck twice last week. First game, I was mana-screwed and died without ever being able to play the game. It was one of my worst games in a while. Painfully bad. In the other game, I stalled out and thought that I was going to see a repeat of the previous game. But the game ran long...
