Every game I lost I drew 2 or fewer lands. The ones I won were complete facerolls. | ||

Had 13 people total which was pretty awesome for us. Placed 5th in a 3 way tie for 3rd.. rather disappointing to get screwed by the computer during match ups again(better people you play, better place you get in case of a tie) but that's how it goes some nights. Ran my B/U infect deck again, been refining it since Scars came out. It is rather deadly at the moment however the next set should pretty much break it XD + Show Spoiler + Deck List: Creatures 4 Necropede 4 Phyrexian Crusaders 3 Skithrix, the Blight Dragon 2 Phyrexian Vatmother Sorcery/Instant/PW/Artifact 4 Inquisition of Kozilek 4 Preordain 1 Black Sun's Zenith 3 Go for the Throat 2 Mana Leak 2 Into the Roil 2 Tumble Magnet 2 Contagion Clasp 1 Sword of Feast and Famine 1 Corrupted Conscience 3 Jace Beleren Lands 4 Darkslick Shores 2 Drowned Catacombs 1 Halimar Depths 2 Tectonic Edge 1 Mystifying Maze 3 Inkmoth Nexus 5 Island 5 Swamp Sideboard: 4 Phyrexian Revoker 4 Doom Blade 2 Mana Leak 2 Into the Roil 1 Phyrexian Vatmother 1 Corrupted Conscience 1 Tumble Magnet 1 Jace Beleren Really REALLY excited for the new set, and in my honest opinion is going to make infection competative in more then just the Standard format. Not to mention how broken Surgical Extraction is, if you don't play black you really should get these anyways. I am looking forward to turn 1 surgical extraction > inquisition of kozilek, then your turn 1 Mental Mistep your turn 1 or start with the Mental Misstep when you play first into surgical extraction > inquisition of kozilek.... I expect some very unhappy friends due to meta-game XD Surgical extraction isn't altogether that great xD thankfully someone has done a write up on it so i don't have to  http://www.channelfireball.com/articles/in-development-how-to-waste-two-life-at-instant-speed/Took 1st at my FNM again tonight and got myself a 3rd inkmoth for the 3rd week in a row o0 | ||

Edit: And Valakut if any of their pieces hit the GY before the turn, you can just say fuck their Traps all day with an Extraction in hand. And that's about it. | ||

We can even password lock the drafts so that we can make sure its all Liquidians in the pod once this is more organized. Perhaps someone could make a thread dedicated to TL Drafting? Something that'd have relevant information in the OP at all times? I made a poll on page 33 for Tl drafting, if there is enough interest I was going to put together a weekly draft so make sure to vote and if we get enough ill be making a thread. | ||

You'd pay one point each turn for an extra card There are free alternatives, such as Magic Workstation and Cockatrice. Phyrexian Arena is a good card, but it's only legal in eternal formats where Dark Confidant is just straight up better. | ||

Good initiative! I suggest creating an IRC channel asap as well, both for draft purposes and for some friendly standard/legacy games as well! | ||

New set looks ok, I don't think anything can dethrone cawblade now with batterskull and sword of war and peace. Torpor orb - completely laughable. | ||

Umm UB definitely can win unless UW gets some stupidly godly draws. Jace is the problem, not the Swords. | ||

Now that NPH is out, UR pestertwin is pretty strong (and RUG pestertwin), but I'm sure some other deck is going to come up, perhaps some MBC deck. | ||
