I lost to Aggro-Loam and Kiki-Pod. Both 2-1 and close games.
Aggro-Loam was completely off my radar. I put up a good fight but without drawing any removal Countryside Crusher crushed my face in for 11 damage gg.
Kiki-Pod player was a Top8er of GP Yokohama last year. Close match game3 but Glen Elendra Archmage didn’t let me Rites for Elesh Norn gg.

Just can’t stop playing Gifts. It’s too much fun!!
