18 players turned up to battle it out at Eudemonia on the 25th of June. Whilst I have top 8 lists, I unfortunately did not catch the placings. The top 4 ended up splitting. If people could help fill in the blanks, it would be appreciated!

For this event, I went with a brew: Dark Petition Oath. The deck was a lot of fun: I did not end up killing myself too much...
Round 1, 0-2, against Jaco Eldrazi. Game 1, after mulling to 6 on the draw, there were too many sphere effects! I resolved an oath, with 6 cards left in my library. An Endbringer sealed the deal. Game two, after again mulling to 6, my turn 1 oath was followed by a grafdigger's cage. A second cage, a sphere, then a trinisphere kept me from doing anything meaningful.
Round 2, 2-1, against DPS. I don't have much in the way of notes for these games, but the round nearly went to time. There were not many turns, but each turn was quite complicated.
Round 3, 2-0, against Stand Still. Yawg Will won me both games - in game 1, it returned a vault to play, whilst in game two, it setup a lethal tendrils.
Round 4, 2-1, against Omni Oath. Game 1, Griselbrand beatdown got him there. Game two, I stormed off on turn 2. Game 3 was a comedy of errors by both of us. My opponent had forgotten to remove a burning wish target from their deck, and I screwed up a tendrils kill. Griselbrand gave me a second chance, and was able to get me there.
Round 5, ID
Top 8, 0-2, TiTi. Game 1, TiTi bouncing my Griselbrand was not fun. Unfortunately, Griselbrand was not able to sculpt me a hand that would let me win on the spot. Game 2, a yawgmoth's bargain and 6 life could not net me enough cards. I died to a top decked lightning bolt. I did manage to EE a TiTi, which was nice.
Was I happy with my deck? The deck was a lot of fun. Most oath activations lead to me winning the game. There were only a handful of non-oath storm wins. Tezzeret confused people, but vault key was able to win me several games. The deck certainly needs more tuning. The sheer number of cages and priests makes oath less attractive path. The disruption package worked as I would have hoped against blue, but felt weak against Eldrazi, but one round is hardly a great data point to go by. Jamming so many combos together in the one deck has pros and cons. It is not consistent, but it is hard to attack.
