It seems a few things are out of order. So in an effort to save time and to get some cleaning done please let me know of any problems in this thread so I can immediatly deal with them.

I don't see many problems, but here's my list:

1. There's some randomly created threads in the Tournament Centre forums. Move those please.
2. We need to clear out the non Tiered decks from the TC.
    a. Tier 1 should be GR Aggro, Delver, WG Pod (naya and bant can go in here, but if its easier to just keep a pod thread no problem im sure since we cant find volunteers to make primers usually), B/x Zombies, Frites, and maybe Esper Midrange (this might need to be Tier 2).
    b. Tier 2 should be Kessig Blue Ramp, MBC (oddly enough). Esper Midrange depending on some concensus.

It'd be great if we could get some help from others on this since I don't spend a lot of time studying 5ks and PTQ results now that my season is over.

Then October 1st it'd be nice if you came back through and moved any threads that are decimated by rotation (Pod, maybe Delver). I intend to make a Post Rotation discussion thread in 2 weeks in the General forum. Hopefully we can get things sorted out by then to be helpful.

Still do not see a big point for the T2 area but I will clean it up and the T1 area, and yes I will try and ghost a bit more and once the rotation happens I will make sure things look tidy.

That being said when it comes to what decks go into those areas I will go over numbers and so forth and try and get it done by the end of the week, I work two jobs now so I will be doing it in my free time. Any other concerns of general problems?

We're all set here otherwise I think.

Been self policing decently enough.. maybe only half a dozen orcs have come through lately. =)

Eh while I know my W/X humans thread isnt teir 1 material anymore, I say slide it down to teir 2 since folks still noodle with the deck and need at least a way to see how its made atm before the meta shift.

I'm also tempted to say we use Mr Indigo's Blood Pain Zombie thread over in deck help as our zombies thread since it deals with both b/u and b/r zombie builds. Unless someone wants to make the zombies AT thread.

It was revealed to me in a dream.  All the cards were in my dream except for three slots which I plugged in as Vault Skirge.

FULL DISCLOSURE:  The dream was post AVR so there was a copy of Slayer's Stronghold.  I decided to keep it pre AVR in my post here.

EDIT: I just remembered.  The Skirges might have been 2x Whipflare and 1x something else, probably War and Peace.

EDIT2:  Currently 4-0 in my first four games with this.  My opponents have been very angry.  I fought off a Wurmcoil from Grixis for six turns before I found my second Dispatch.  Jeez, I can do a lot of damage.

EDIT3: Streak broken.  Lost to an unexpected Overrun.    Cracking a Shrine for 10 wasn't enough.   



How Kedi tests his decks:

also, I've been playtesting this deck in my sleep today
that kinda freaked me out

MBC more now than ever in the past year or so. It has spiked a few events.

However when October hits you'll be faced with the tough decision of toss it, because its gutted... or keep it just so the Standard Deck Help forum doesn't get littered with MBC threads. That was half the impetus for putting it there last time... easily located central place to collect MBC posts. I hope you don't need a reminder of how many there would be otherwise.
