In the first two games, Revan managed to rush me down effectively, and then things got interesting. I got a really good draw: Elana and a Seraph as my first picks, followed by Radiance Angels, Healing Prayer, and other good stuff, which, combined with Guardian San, worked out well. However, Revan defended very well against all this and managed to defeat me one turn before the Seraph's effect would have activated. In the fourth game, I had a great sequence of followers that followed the mana curve, culminating in Gray on turn 8 and Olivia on turn 9. And in the fifth game, I could have easily lost if it weren't for the timely arrival of Wards and Almira, which helped me protect my face and establish control on the board.
Thanks to everyone for the tournament; I played my games, and it was interesting!

Only towards the end of the tournament did I realize my subjective ranking of the factions on the current arena: Sword is clearly not top-tier in my hands (others seem to play it better than I do), Dragons are second, and Haven remains an overpowered faction for me. However, I haven't had a chance to properly test Shadow yet, and I haven't played a single Tier 2 game with Forest (neither in normal play nor in the tournament).
