Thanks again J]-[UN and everyone else who contributed at the thread!

A brief report of the Shamsul vs Nazim semifinals match is also provided by user maidia. Report below!

Brief report semi-final of Shamsul and Nazim (2-1 to Shamsul). Feel free to correct me.

Game 1
Nazim took the first game with just 5 turn, hitting hard with goblin guides, hellspark elemental and burn spells. No time for Shamsul to recover.

Game 2
After sideboarding in the 'hate red' creature (pronounced Kor Firewalker), Shamsul kept 7 hand grip with the 2/2. No prize guessing the 2nd turn play from Shamsul.

Game 3
We have an epic top deck from Shamsul in the third game.

Shamsul goes to paris on the first 7. Then he kept the next 6 cards, but no Firewalker. I only saw a knight of the white orchid for the 2nd turn play.

Nazim starts with a mountain. Shamsul plays tapped land (UW manland, if i remember correctly).

Then Goblin Guide (GG) hits the table for 2, shamsul summons a Firewalker and viola! he reveals himself.
Shamsul plays the creature and passed.

Nazim draws and thinks for a while, then GG swings. when the Firewalker blocks, nazim reveals unstable footing. it's looking good for burn eventhough trading 1 for 2-and-1-life.

Unfortunately, Shamsul draws the Firewalker's brother and soon put the game out of reach from Nazim for the 3 hours at chill-out club (copyright-icky)
