It was a close raise between the two best decks of the tournament.This is more clear if you take into account that Nicdanger won the group matches against Aww1979.
Heh, I just went back, and sure enough, nicdanger had 10 more points than me in the group A matches. Our decks definitely were very evenly matched. I think his deck was better in the AIs hands and mine was better in the human's hands. I suspect this is why he did better in group A; he probably got more points from AI wins against the players who didn't advance than I did.
Overall, I think the final was pretty darned close. When I played the matches, on both sides it took a long time to play all the games. I'm just hoping that people enjoy the cards I picked for jatill, assuming they were doable. I think they were
Back to Basics,
Tithe,
Mox Opal, and then some broken green dude that is 8/8 for 2GG if you have 3 artifacts out, and 4/4 otherwise. It was pretty hard to just pick 4, and I'll admit to being kind of bummed out when I went back during the finals to realize it wasn't 10 cards like last time :p I also tried to pick some cards that looked easy to code, rather than some monstrosity like
Prince of Thralls or
Maelstrom Nexus, which while extremely fun, are probably a nightmare to code.
