Odd set up in that the two surviving members of one 4 player match were I was playing against a Father/Son duo and a player I didn't know. The son was at the "proficient at playing, but was still grasping subtleties" level of play skill and the dad was an EDH guy who had been playing continuously since 1994.
So Game One I lived the dream of curving out into Fires of Yavimaya on Turn 3, Turn 4 flipping my Conspiracies and dropping two Selvala's Enforcers one of which was a 7/7, another of which was a 4/4, and then smashing "the dad" with zero creatures for 11...
I then dropped a 3rd Enforcer that came out as a 6/6, and smashed "the son" for 17... Afterward stealing a large blocker from "the Dad" with the one Theros Threaten effect and finishing him as he was playing as if he still had outs to my board state. Which apparently involved a 10/10 Flying Double Striker of some type, but he didn't show me his hand so I don't know how other than he'd drafted Basandra and was on a Boros beatdown plan...
After that, I left the "son" durdeling at three life, and went after the opponent who'd literally done nothing the whole game, and just repeatedly bashed through his weenies... Which took awhile as my Parleys and his card-draw had left him with a hand full of gas. But after both Elvish Abberation & a Scaled Wurm, I had a board state that I haven't seen since 1995...
Which is me in a multiplayer game with an army of huge green beaters.
Game 2 someone was on a better plan which was early Grenzo's Cutthroats with the Preparations & the Conspiracy that allows you to pull them out of the deck plus the Vent Sentinel plan, but he made a tactical error and killed the wrong threat with 12 points of burn, a player with a bunch of small fliers, then died horribly the next turn to the "son" who had moved up with me due to a Reign of the Pit Token he didn't realized had flying.
That left me with a fog in hand, and enough combat tricks to crash through the remaining player.
Good times for me, though I felt bad about hyper-aggro'ing out the table game one... But not bad enough to where I wouldn't draft a similar deck in the future thou'.
