Last year I missed a couple of the months to start the DMV league year. I was determined to make it this year to as many Wednesdays as I could. I just wanted to finish ahead of my buddy Andy, as we have a 6 pack of beer as a side bet.
I ran Moonstompy as I got my final old boarder Chalice in the mail this week. (Anyone looking for a set of M25 Chalices?)
Here is my list from the first night.

Round 1 vs r/u/g Delver, Brady (season 1 champ)
Game 1- I missed a critical damage to be able to kill his big Murktide, by saying pass when I could have evoked a Fury to kill it. Sigh.
Game 2- I mulliganed to 4 because I literally didn't see lands until then. Second hand had some sources, but they were too slow I thought. Well, I ripped off lock piece after lock piece to keep me around and then pressure a plenty. I felt good about that.
Game 3- Chalice into Moon into threats. Stomped good.

Round 2 vs r/u Delver, Dsitt
Game 1- Chalice into Moon into threats. Super quick to the point that I almost felt bad.
Game 2- Nearly as quick, but when I see them playing Stock Up- I feel good. Also, when he countered my Chalice, I felt ok because I had 2 Red Blasts in my hand that would have been pointless. But he didn't know that.

Round 3 vs b/u good stuff, Paul
Wasn't sure what he was on, but almost assured it was something blue/x.
Game 1- Similar issue to first round game 1, he blocked with a big old Nethergoyf that I could have killed but messed up the damage with a Fury before hand while I was cleared out a Bowmaster and army. Also- double Thoughtsieze to start, and Bowmasters with Ring activation is a bitch. Sigh.
Game 2- Stompy things ensued quickly and scoop encountered.
Game 3- More of game 1 with Bowmasters being the critcal problem. Also, I ran into a bunch of lands at the wrong time. Sigh... 3-0 was not meant to be.

I still think Unstoppable Plan will be a very good card in the long run. I have an open acceptance of copies on Card Sphere.

As mentioned a couple weeks ago, I got a nice King Suleiman from a trade to Card Kingdom. Literally no deck will it ever go in. More than pleased to apply it to a future trade or hold.
