Title says it all.  Post your final score and favorite deck combo used.

My final score was 977.  +250 from this event last time, now that I know what to expect from the opponents :)

    Mythics:
    Angel of Sanctions
    Growing Rites of Itlimoc
    Nissa's Revelation
    Hour of Promise

    Rares:
    Resilient Khenra
    Adorned Pouncer
    Animist's Awakening

    Uncommons:
    Farm//Market
    Elaborate Firecannon
    Gather the Pack

    I like your sense of whimsy Mr. Rabid Wombat, I finished just under progression at 697...disappointing.
    [Grumble...grumble...half my fault for being lazy on a few nodes but the 4 crashes/freezes followed by course profanity weren't grumble...grumble...]

    I liked the build that finally beat the crud out of Azor's Gate (3rd try's a charm):
    Nicol Bolas - Level 42

    Critters: Dreamstealer
    Spells: Dispossess, River's Rebuke, Stir the Sands, Infinite Obliteration
    Supports: Storm the Vault, Sphinx's Tutelage, Kumena's Awakening, Bounty of the Luxa, Journey to Eternity

    Once the Vault was out, mana was in abundance (for me).
    This build gave me just the right amount of lock-down to keep that jerk from ascending.
    Infinite Obliteration could've been swapped for any of the other discard spells but it's in my top-3 favorites for card art.
    Dispossess seemed to me a critical contributor...even if I've never used it for anything else.
    Journey to Eternity wasn't very useful in hindsight, I think next time I'll swap in another support killer instead.

    Dovin Baan

    Glory Bound Initiate
    Cartouche of Solidarity
    Turn to Frog
    Cartouche of Knowledge
    Irrrigated Farmland
    Lay Claim
    Helm of the Gods
    Bounty of the Luxa
    Brawler's Plate
    Scrapskin Drake

    Looking back. I should have replaced Turn to Frog on some fights to Gideon's defeat. But it helped out immensely in the vampire fights. The berserk function is what carried me past Golden Guardian. Cutting all creatures down before anything could happen to me. Lay Claim was crucial against the fight where your last creature is destroyed and the enemy PW would heal. Just steal their squire and bring it back in 3rd place with Glory Bound Initiate each turn.

    P.S. Koth for the Merfolk boss and Avaricious Dragon with any deck really. The constant draw and cascades went hand in hand.

    Around 650, almost there for the Immortal Sun.

    I pretty much juggled between Nicol Bolas (lvl 59) and Kjora (lvl 60).  Almost identical decks, it's the cycling deck of repeat-lather-rinse.

    New Perspectives
    Drake Haven
    Shefet Monitor
    Striped Riverwinder
    Lay Claim
    Desert of the Indomitable
    Floodwaters
    Desert of the Mindful
    Hieroglyphic Illumination
    Disserter's Deliverance

    I think for Nicol I had Stir in Sands and Faith of the Devoted instead.

    With a bit of luck, I was able to raise a massive army within 4-5 turns, could take out the Azor's fairly easily.
