By Tir (Tir) on Friday, July 06, 2001 - 09:23 am:

This match had two of the most closely fought
games in the history of Tirx, with some decent
playing on both our parts. I also have a newfound
respect for Azhrei White Weanie, as Tirx is used
to running over other WW variants. Even though I
lost, my main mission is to convince the masses
that Tirx is not a pile, and I have one convert
from this game, so all is well with the world. I
must insist, however, that I lost the match to
lack of coffee. That's my story and I'm sticking
to it.

Game 1: I go off turn 4, I believe, and to save
time we both just say gg instead of playing it out.

Game 2: I have to go critter control (with all 3
of my cards dedicated to that purpose) and think
I may have to deck him with Bargain, the game is
so long. However, I attempt to go off, being my
usual risky self, and lose to a seal of cleansing.

Game 3: All Redman. I get an early rector, but
cannot find an Intent or any card drawing to save
my life. Down to 3, I tutor for an intent, Intent
the rector for Abyss & balance, then play balance
only to lose Abyss to the one dismantling blow he
packed.

Excellently played games, all of them. Now on to
logs (I lost the one for game 1, so Redman will
post it later):
