In a DE atm and deck is playing well. Beat _batutinha_ playing grixis control round1 but lost round 2 to jund ramp. Mostly lost due to no mana though. Deck definitley needs 24-25 lands not 23. Way too greedy there.


I have played against this guy (_batutinha_) so many times lol, but I guess that's true for all the grinders he plays so much .

Ya, he is second in player of year race atm. I think he plays every DE or something. Also, fuck forgot despise out. Well appetite it is... O and a Junk Midrange deck made semi of SCG Providence. My list is much different but same idea.

Isn't there a BB hand disruption spell?

Edit: Ah, my bad; it was Distress, and it rotated out in M12.

Probably will get a good discard spell in Gatecrash with Dimir.

Rakdos's Return is also really underrated as a SB card against control for Jund decks. Nobody is running counterspells, and making them pitch their hand is just GG.

Well the poty "Race" is more the how much you play race as far as Magic Online is concerned, since I kept in the top 15 in constructed for the first 3-4 months of the year, still in the mocs though as far as I can tell.

If I que in more than one event like these guys do my play basically becomes play spells with whatever mana I have and pass priority, and i don't keep track of the games well enough, those that can do it well and play multiple tables, I really wish I ahd their multitasking capabilities, I guess it's just like starcraft though, always going to be jealous of those able to do that stuff...


like those with 600+ points..are crazy lol .. there is a 500 point difference between 2nd and 4th.. and I haven't played since 14/4/2012 and I'm still holding top 100.. so that shows how many points these guys have over everyone else...... and well, I think the fact they can play that much Magic Online without going insane, props to them I need my breaks .

Ya, I was able to get into top50 back in June when I played about 4 DEs a day but that was only because of no school or work. Not sure how you keep that pace up.

Dear Wizards. Hire Spooky for your events.

Strange only going to be a top 2 instead of a top 4, but it's going to be best of 9 I think???. Really weird tournament format.

It's a best of three for the finals.

First match is A1-A2, B1-B2, C1-C2.

Second match is A1-B2, B1-C2, C1-A2. If the team that wins the first match wins the second, it's over.

If the teams split the first two matches, the third match is A1-C2, B1-A2, C1-B2.

The second and third match orders may be switched, but you can't play the same player twice.

Yep, whenever you see Call Spooky or some kind of variation of that in the stream chat, now you know. The fighting game community was one of the earliest adopters of online streaming for events and consequently they have one of the most experienced.

Like the hiccups and production I saw from Wizards this past weekend was atrocious, like 3 years ago Justin.tv atrocious.

This might be the worst stream I've watched since MLG Dallas.

They better step their game up for the PT next weekend.

Second and third place separated by 0.2% in tiebreakers. Ouch.

Yeah, the stream for this event has been really terrible, no wonder the SCG stream had twice the audience.

Having some commentators with a fucking clue would also help the stream.

Eh, that's arguable. It's not like SCG Opens always have good commentators either. Different people have different opinions on the same cards or plays. I don't have a problem with Wizard commentators because they don't attempt to guess lines of play or say what a player should/shouldn't do nor should they. They do a pretty good job at explaining cards and telling the impact/events as it unfolds.

Bold is why is why I preferred the commentary from wizards stream. Especially in a rotation this "new" a lot of lines are "unknown"
