Duel 1/3.
Lost this duel, because i've underestimated the combination of Painter's Servant with Grindstone.
Should destroy these when i could, by counterspelling the Pyroblast's response to my By Force spell. Could do it with Force of Will.
Duel 2/3.
Some interaction, artifact mass destruction, and when things started to look grim, won by a combination of Time Vault with Future Sight-ed Voltaic Key.
Duel 3/3.
Opened with Duress that removed Time Walk from opponent's hand.
Soon after played some mana artifacts, then won by casting Tezzeret the Seeker, bringing & untapping the Time Vault.
Defended him twice against Pyroblast, each time with the Force of Will.

[MTGO] 'Paradoxical Storm', a Deck.
/ article under construction. /
This is a very fast vintage combo deck.
Can win in 1-3 turns, or occasionally a little later, depending on a starting hand.
When played with skill, it can compete in leagues & tournaments in the vintage constructed format.
... i am far from playing it skillfully, however - and league or tournament entrance costs money - so i'll skip for now.
Noteworthy Combinations:
Paradox Engine + Artifacts + Paradoxical Outcome: a Lot of mana, a Lot of Cards Draw,
Mana Artifacts + Paradoxical Outcome + Tendrils of Agony + other cards to build-up Storm: a victory by a Storm Life Drain,
Time Vault + Voltaic Key / Paradox Engine and Tezzeret also work /: Local Timestream Domination - Infinite Extra Turns,
Tezzeret the Seeker + Artifacts: a Victory by a Numerous 5/5 Artifact Creature Attack.
Other notable mentions:
Future Sight + Sensei's Divining Top - good card draw. Even better with fetch lands as Scalding Tarn.
Force of Will is a good interaction - counterspell protecting against fast combo wins, evwn in 1st turn before playing a mana source. It can protects from artifact removal or other permanent removal as well.

[MTGO, STORY] Weatherlight.
/ article in construction. /
... a part of 'Vault Guardians' Deck,
... a tribute to Hannah Nydahl, Lama Ole Nydahl's wife - who guided Buddhism to Greatness in the Modern West, when she lived.
... Buddhism and Church are - by Lama Ole Nydahl's words - two boats that travel by each other for a while, then depart to different destinations.
... 'Vault Guardians' Deck contains most holy ideas from a Buddhist perspective - there's Enligtenment, Meditation, Pondering, Pacifism, Tutoring, Monks and more. White Magick of Light, Blue Magick of Mind, a little of Red Flames of Love, a little of Green Holistic Wisdom and Nature. No Black Magick in this deck. But what makes magick black? It's most importantly intentions.
... in this tale monks and soldiers should travel on board of the sky ship 'Weatherlight', find ancient artifacts, spells and clues that will grant Attentus and Liliana the power of 'Paradoxical Storm'.
