We decided really spontanious to drive sunday to the MkM Series in Milan and because it was such a short notice i decided to play Elves instead of Miracles just because the simple fact that i play Elves a bit longer (and maybe better ^^)
And also the fact that i had to get up at 5 in the morning didnt really inspire me to go with Miracles. I thought to just throw around some elves would be much easier 😀
Round 1 - Nic Fit - 2-0

Round 2 - Eldrazi - 2-1
Was a close matchup, could have gone either way.
Won Game 1 with a Turn 4 Natural Order.
Lost Game 2 against Mimic, Mimic, Endbringer & Smasher.
Won Game 3 with a close Turn 3 Natural Order to exactly his life total. Lucky me he had Ancient Tombs that time..

Round 3 - Food Chain - 1-2
Normaly, that would be a better machup for me, but Game 1 he just beat me down with Leovold, Deathrite and 2 Strixes, so i didn't even know what im playing against and boarded like it was Shardless or BUG Midrange..
Game 2 i closed the game pretty fast in Turn 3 but due to my head being in the killgame i was unable to see him playing a Ballista, which would indicate Food Chain, but i just missed that Point 🙁
Game 3 i got comboed off, and i was like "Ah, you play Food Chain, well, nice to know :D"

Round 4 - Shardless BUG - 1-1
Game 1 was hard, i won with 1 Lifepoint with a topdeck Elvish Visionary into Elvish Visionary into Natural Order and he was on 6.
Game 2 we went both into tankmode at some point but he could finish me even thou i had him on 1. Aaaaaaaaaaaah!
Then Game 3 we could not finish.. when we started game 3 the clock was at around 04:00
Round 5 - Death and Taxes - 2-0
Easy matchup, won both games Turn 4 without any problems.

Game 1 i went Bayou - Deathrite with only Gaea's Cradle in my Hand and he went Wasteland - Mox - Sword. GG.
Game 2 was much longer but in the end i could not beat Tabernacle. :/

All in all i think i need to learn how to sideboard, most games i was so unsure if what im doing is right and what really would help against what deck.
Also i need to see what my opponent is doing, i need to realize what deck im facing and what options he could have other then the once i just see on the table.
