I was slaughtered by this deck in round 2. It was VERY good!

What's "Glass Cannon"? Nice deck cliff, I like the light hand control. What deck won?

Just another speed deck, nothing to see here. I think it's bad because it's a mono colored speed deck, but hey, it worked for you, so congrats. I'm assuming you took only a loss to Red with Judges?

 There's no way 2 blocks and Sorrow should be able to last a long tournament like Nats or Regs - it seems like a Captain basically wins the game against you except for maybe one wives block?

That is correct. I had a misplay where i forgot he had Nazzy down and I tried to live the dream with a well timed Mayhem on his draw step when I should have just played it on my turn with 3 cards in hand and play my fishers to try and get his SoG to the bottom FTW.

4-5 loss me

I never said the deck was good. I literally threw it together right before the event started. It was fun to see it do as well as it did.  There is more to a game of Redemption than just card choice, but it helps I'm sure.

I would have liked another defensive card in the deck.
