For FrozenStorm
I’m confused by your turn. Where did Discord come from? You don’t seem to have had it in your starting hand, or have drawn it from either DP.

It was my technician draw from imp dying, I’ll edit my turn to reflect that. Sorry for the confusion! (NOTE: Edited now)
For the math-inclined, however, I had a 6 card deck, I had a technician death and two dark pacts, so there was only 1 left in deck. It was Maestro, sadly, which would have killed his tech 2 and any hope I think he has left in this game, so anything other than that or Discord at the bottom would have been really nice!
I think you also needed both Fencers, no? So your chance to kill tech II was only 1/3 I think

Not with the graveyard As far as I can tell, Maestro makes them cost 0 from hand or graveyard, but if that’s not the case please someone correct me ASAP!

(Deck is Basilisk, Inspector, Boot Camp). So, I’ll have 3 gold left after playing all of that. 1 for a worker, and I probably won’t have a standing Tech II after this. Better plan on building a Tower!

###Main:
Maestro and Starlets for the win, this tournament has been crazy!
gg! You and Penta in the semi-finals!
woah! This is the first time i see Tech II finesse being so powerful!
Really well played from both sides, but you, my friend, played a masterpiece, imho.
You’re being very kind @Legion, but minus the bottom-decked Maestro I had pretty good draws in a hyper-aggressive P1 deck against a Deck EricF didn’t have a lot of great ways to counterplay (though that Basilisk setup for turn 3 was crazy good!) My record against you speaks for itself @EricF, you played a great game and tournament and I feel pretty lucky to have passed you here!
This needs linked to in the “When the Codex hits just right” thread. Even if you got lucky draws, that was absurd!
There were certainly other combos that would have done the job, I did have 7/9 cards But I needed the Discord both turns, I don’t think the odds were with me on that!
Basically, what @Legion said.
Getting Harmony to go off to full effect with Dark Pact x2 + Discord would have been awesome enough. But getting full on Virtuoso craziness with Fencers, Starlets, and Maestro, with Graveyard freespawn? Really awesome to see.
Props to @EricF for the solid matches throughout the tourney, too.
