	Quarterfinals: Kai Budde vs. William Jensen
		Budde kept an opening hand containing no red mana, but still managed to play creatures on turns two and three before drawing a Forgotten Cave and playing a Charging Slateback face-down on turn 4.
		Budde had a Sparksmith, a Shock, and a Misery Charm, but thanks to the Crown of Awe and the two healers, he had no way to remove the Firecat, which trampled over his Boneknitter for the game.
		Budde had a Severed Legion, a Nantuko Husk, and a Cabal Archon, but the Disciple was keeping him from winning the damage race.

		I got it at a cardstore today and their is an article that Kai wrote about the new T2.
		Assuming that this is, indeed, a decklist that Kai Budde came up with, I guess this is one of the reasons why you rarely get to see him at the top 8 spots of extended tournaments.
		Honestly, Kai hasn't posted a good deck since he (basically) created Cunning Wake like 3 years ago...but alot of great players aren't really that good at deck design..they let someone else build they decks, and just play them.

		Fuller (seat 8) and Kai (seat 3) pretty much had the run of the mill on the green selection on that side of the table.
		Kai took a first pick in his pack in the form of a Cephalid Broker which announced to everyone that he wished to go into blue as well (he took an Aven Fisher first pick first pack as well).
		The best part of Kai's draft came in the third round of packs, Blecht cracked an Overrun going left, and since Kai was the first green player going left, he was the lucky winner of a brand new win condition crowd applauds.
