Players: 14
Rounds: 4 rounds cut to top 4
1st place: Extended affinity + disciples (we were shocked too)
2nd place: ANT Ad Nauseum Tendrils
3rd place: WUB Control
4th place: BWg Doran rock/suicide (aspects of both)
going into top 4
Ad Nauseum 3-0-1 (Tendrils and WUB Control IDed Round 4)
WUB Control 3-0-1
Affinity 3-1
Doran Rock 3-1
VERY low turnout considering an extended event with a sanctioned no proxy type 1 tourney having more players in it than the legacy.
About 1/2 the field was DTB/Established decks others were homemade or extended decks. The affinity deck had insane draws (many games started with land thopter thopter springleaf worker/disciple followed by ravager/plating next turn) and his opponents had mediocre/terrible draws wich pretty much cakewalked him to 3 chicago byes.
Couldn't access decklists but tendrils was pretty much the standard source verison and I can message anyone who wants what I saw of The Doran deck and my BWU decklist. The affinity deck appeared as such (from the two matches I watched and the one I played against him):
4 Blinkmoth Nexus
4 Great Furnace
4 Seat of the Synod
4 Tree of Tales
4 Vault of Whispers
4 Ornithopter
4 Disciple of the Vault
4 Arcbound Worker
4 Arcbound Ravager
4 Master of Etherium
4 Frogmite
4 Chromatic Star
4 Cranial Plating
4 Springleaf Drum
4 Thoughtcast
Sideboard:
3 Tormod's Crypt
3 Thoughtsieze
3 Swords to Plowshares
3 Myr Enforcer
3 Aethersworn Cannonist
