The Sentry™
Card# MTU-017


While his stats aren’t much bigger than those of the average 7-drop, Sentry’s “Pay ATK” power can drastically hinder an opponent’s attacking options in the late game.

Round 6: Alex Gellerman vs. Peter Sundholm
Tim Willoughby
 
                         

Both players are on 4–1 going into this round

Sundholm and Gellerman’s chances are sound

Of making Day 2 yet another time

While this feature match writer is spitting his rhymes—kick it!

Well, Gellerman failed to win the roll

It’s beastly in this format to lose control

Of the chance to use your tricks

In all your swings on turn 6

To compare it to a mix it is

It’s worse than mine (and mine are hardly sick).

 

Rem-Ram for Gellerman on turn 2 was good

But Jubilee has no respect for no Brother’s hoods,

No attacks on the turn, just a little burn,

The game kicked off quick and the crowd all yearned for . . . some . . .

 

Plays that amaze, but Pete simply could not supply,

Longshot from Gellerman seemed like a far better try

It seemed that his guy could simply beat on Sundholm’s 1-er

It ended the turn, Jubilee really was a stunner.

 

There’s reason that Metagame isn’t big on the big rhymes

It’s really hard to do this when you’re typing in real time

I need a slower format, perhaps more caffeine

Back to the game yo, time to keep it X-Treme.

 

Silver Sabre rocked on 3, Alex rolling with his punches

Nightcrawler on this init for Pete was getting eaten (like kindergarten lunches),

More attacks went back, Longshot got in for a lot

There was probably another play but I must say I forgot.

 

As long as I’m trying and working on a rhyme

It’s possible I’m missing things to keep it in time.
Gellerman’s position was hotter that Pete’s

FTN, it’s the end, Alex brought all the beats.

 

For four 4-characters for Geller, man

Bishop first for Sundholm, he’s an XSE Commando

Nightcrawler moved the leader, allowing attacks,

But a Lying in Wait put Bishop on his back.

 

Nightcrawler and The Hill put Pete in for the kill, a stun was a thrill and the rhymes were still ill. And getting iller.

 

Yo.

 

Turn 5, Geller-man had Polaris from his row

With the flight he might quite well have been good to go,

All Sundholm had beyond his hair and his band was

Emma Frost, Friend or Foe to foil those plans.

 



Break it down!

 

In the background an angry dance-off begins. Someone gets served. Play continues.

 

Longshot, Rem-Ram, Polaris, Roberto,

All the guys learned to fly from the girl known as Polo,   

Geller-man was the man on attack Brave New World

X-Men and the Hood teamed-up to get the 5-drop girl.

 

Longshot and Rem-Ram had the moves

SNIKT!, Feel the Burn!

Truly pretty rough grooves.

 

Bishop went down, Da Costa went to the face,

Sundholm was in trouble—he axed for help to win the race

Eleven endurance to a full 25.

He tried for a Scaleface to stay alive.

 

Gellerman had hidden guys, as would likely stay alive

Unlike the man himself, whose chances rather took a nose-dive

Scaleface with Morlock Justice took him down like a dog’s dinner,

His chances, like this Englishman, were thin and only getting thinner.

 

Emma Frost attacked Polo, his endurance went down to 6,

Perhaps he was lucky, perhaps there were no more tricks?

 

Wary of something scary, Alex passed

Onto turn 7, the init again at last.

 

With 11 to do, it was close to the end.

Mystique, Freedom Force showed up with a friend

And an Image Inducer, to continue the trend

Of winning the roll and the match with a big send.

 

Enemy of My Enemy found a 7-drop for Peter,

Sebastian Shaw was a pretty big hidden beater,

It likely wouldn’t matter, Gellerman’s dudes were fatter

He smiled from under his hat as his mad visible heroes get visibly battered.

 

 

Sundholm was finished,

The deal was done, yo.

Gellerman wins.

End.

Of.

The.

Show.

 

 




Never let an Englishman rhyme for a feature match,

You’ll not know what’s going on, get Jebaileyed, and here’s the catch,

Without a beat I can’t compete, not even with Vanilla

But give me cold hard prose and I’m a wordsmith serial

 

Killer.
