Nice to see that this isn't dead. I've PM's Theiz, hopefully we can get our game done tomorrow.



 


It almost died because I missed bugferds concession and I had to do a massive end of quarter project, but I, Greg_the_Egg, pledged to YOU, my fair tournament mates, that I would never let any tourney of mine die.  EVER.


NOT ON MY WATCH!!

Umm, so I don't really frequent these forums any more, but I do blog for my website Greatplay.net.

I lose 0-2 to probably the most boring match of my life.. g1 we went back and forth dropping nothing but lands for like 10 turns cause nethier were drawing any gas with no cards in hand then he started to draw gas... and I was still drawing lands. g2 He had a decent start and I continued with my streak of drawing no gas, probably could have played differently with the few spells I had but with drawing so many lands it didn't matter in the long run.

and my list

// Lands
    4 [DIS] Blood Crypt
    3 [ZEN] Mountain (1)
    4 [RAV] Sacred Foundry
    2 [GP] Godless Shrine
    1 [RAV] Boros Garrison
    1 [DIS] Rakdos Carnarium
    4 [ZEN] Plains (3)
    3 [ZEN] Swamp (1)

// Creatures
    4 [GP] Giant Solifuge
    4 [RAV] Dark Confidant
    3 [AP] Spectral Lynx
    3 [AP] Goblin Legionnaire
    4 [9E] Savannah Lions

// Spells
    4 [RAV] Lightning Helix
    2 [ARB] Terminate
    4 [AP] Vindicate
    4 [AP] Gerrard's Verdict
    2 [DIS] Demonfire
    4 [RAV] Char

// Sideboard
SB: 4 [PS] Flametongue Kavu
SB: 4 [GP] Mortify
SB: 4 [9E] Persecute
SB: 3 [9E] Stone Rain

I was expecting bwg rock and decks that really tried to push there mana bases where this deck can just punish them with its disruption suite. That and I just didn't care and wanted to play with bob.
But you were deceived.

Spectral lynx is absurd.

NO ONE EXPECTS THE QUAGSIRE INSURRECTION!

Now it's time for


Round Eight FINALS!
 Glux (0) vs. LegendofLink (1)


 


This is how it will work.  First Glux and LegendofLink will play a best of three match.


Then, if Glux wins, he is the winner of this Alternate Standard tournament.


If Glux loses, both people get the opportunity of picking new decks, and you play another best of three match.


If a second match is required, whoever wins the second match is the winner of the Alternate Standard Tournament.

Umm, so I don't really frequent these forums any more, but I do blog for my website Greatplay.net.

link won.  

match report: g1 I was gaining 2 life a turn and he had 2 cards in hand to my 7 when his game dropped.  g2 his metagamed deck beat mine.  g3, I drew 1 land in 8 cards and lost.

match 2: g1 my deck did what it does and I won with +20.  g2 he drew 3 Vindicates, no shot there. g3, I drew 1 land in 6 cards and lost.

Kind of annoying my deck completely crapped out on me in the deciding game both times, especially considering my hands were full of 4 mana gas, but that **** happens. 

congrats to link.

Nah, you didn't get lucky.  You played as you should, I just didn't hit my lands.
