2004 Tooth and Nail vs 2013 Domri Naya

G1: Close game. Domri Naya went first. T&N was at 4 life with one Colossus out. Attacks Domri down to 8, then plays Tooth and Nail to get a Duplicant that exiles a Restoration Angel threatening lethal next turn (thanks to Gavony Township) and another Colossus. Turns out to be a mistake, should’ve gotten Ravenous Baloth for the lifegain instead of Colossus #2. Restoration Angel #2 flashes in during endstep, then attacks with a +1/+1 counter on it FTW. Domri 1-0

G2: Domri keeps a bad hand with 4 lands but no green mana sources and is kept off green spells for a long time. It takes forever for T&N to win, though: 4 Mindslavers (featuring back to back plays forcing Domri to make his own creatures fight each other) and 3 Oblivion Stones into a topdecking race that eventually found a Tooth and Nail. Domri 1-1.

G3: Ridiculous mulligans – Domri to 4 cards, T&N to 5 cards. Domri gets a perfect 4 card hand. Turn 1 Pilgrim. Turn 2 Boros Reckoner. Next two turns 2 more Boros Reckoners. Turn 5 Blasphemous Act from the sideboard. Domri 2-1.

G4: Boros Charm from the sideboard was the MVP. T&N gets 2 Colossus onto the battlefield. Domri uses Selsnya Charm to exile one, and O-Ring to exile the other. T&N topdecks Oblivion Stone but Domri keeps Boros Charm mana open, saves all his creatures and even saves the O-Ring (permanents you control gain indestructible.) Domri 3-1. Domri advances.
