I was HJ. 20 players. Lists aren't up on the site yet as far as I can find, but I remember Caw-Blade and Tron being 1 and 2 after swiss.

It certainly was exciting being head judge of a Modern tournament so soon.

Lol, T16 of a 20 man tournament. Still, I suppose it's useful to judge how decent the field was, but there's something funny about getting your decklist posted when you come in somewhere in the bottom 25% of the tournament :P

I'm quite surprised at seeing no 12-post decks in there. And since there was no combo neither, I think that 12-post should have completely dominated the field.

Yeah, it didn't look like a very impressive field, but I suppose it's still early after the announcement. Still, I'm shocked that there was no Splinter Twin. Hive Mind isn't a T2 deck, so I can see that being underrepresented, but we're only missing 4 decklists from the entire tournament so the absence of Twin is really surprising. It's making me wonder if I ought to be maining Batterskulls though. That's a LOT of Zoo/RDW/Jund.
