Oh my God! Another Kaddy Dual Land Draft! Will VA rule as always? Will I beat Peter Rotten at SF2? The answer is ofcourse, but we should all come out and have a good time anyway. FBB duals are really cool and the more the better.

Can someone make sure we have at least 2 TVs so that my beating of Peter Rotten can continue without interruption?

Kadishack

The Inn is letting us use one of their Tv's but someone else may need to bring the second, but I will see if we can get 2.

I might play, will the FBB's start from the lowest value? Or will the 59th person guarantee an FBB Undergroud Sea?

Last time I did ok, but I have to admit my matchups were great. Everybody was playing anti combo, and I beat that. And playiung anti-combo didnt beat combo.... cuz solidarity split in the end.

On a more seroius note, April 21 and 22 are the dates for the Future Sight Pre-Release. You may want to consider rescheduling, Mr. Kadilack, since both you and Eli have a commitment that weekend, methinks....

I just wanted to know if this was being held in a store or a hotel like thing like last time because I have the last pieces of my collection and might be looking to sell some of my left over pimp shit (foil jap thresh stuff, foil stacks stuff, beta duals, etc)

I am also sure that I will have some stuff to donate to the prize pool.

Since half the Magic community knows how to play poker, and Diablos wants to lose money to me, I am willing to bring chips. It would be cool if there could be some sort of side event.

I can also bring the gamecube unless Kadilak wants to bring it again.

I used to Top 4 when you were in diapers! It's been a long while. One of the main reasons I sucked out so bad the last time I played was because I didn't have any cards to actually play with. Guess what...now, I do. Besides, I've already got a team formed with some very recognizable, formidable players. See you on the 28th and bring your best.

Better believe that we will.

Actually, it's quite impressive. When I take Magic seriously I do well. When I don't, I could care less. If you take a look at the players who were in that field before you even considered playing, it's probably a more impressive feat than you beating ten year old kids every Sunday with your turbo-turbo-TURBO "hyped up" EPIC trash or whatever...will ever be.

That's true, I'll give you that. But if you refer to above: I had no cards and had to borrow half a bad deck just because I wanted to play and have a good time. It's actually good to own a lot of cards again and be able to play with whatever I choose.

Explain to me what you think between now and April 28th - in this thread - is going to contain. Deck lists? Strategies? Big tournament threads are built for trash talk and nothing more until the tournament is over and then people analyze what the hell happened and repeat ad nauseum. That's what makes these fun rather than boring. If you're just checking in to see what's up then look no further to every other tournament thread ever made - they're built for trash talk after the first post. So why don't YOU shut up before interjecting on our fun, jack. Otherwise, I suggest you stand opposed the 28th and play your best.

No, he's pissed that he lost to my deck. I heard rumors that he chucked his deck after losing just so he doesn't see another Jitte again...

Theres a boy I know at my local school. He wins all of his games against common friends. At his local store where his friends play, he beats them there. They use DCI sanctioned rules and enjoy tournaments. He has a high rank, because he is best.

Aka, Location is huge. I remember playing against some kid from Rochester, and he just didn't attack me for 4 turns, with 9 power on the board and me with an empty one. He gave me enough time to find Survival and win.

Maybe I'm missing your whole point, but don't you have to actually win matches to have a high rating? To become a better magic player, I would figure that you play formats that Wizards actually supports.

This is just my opinion, but I believe standard is the most skill intensive format in magic.

This is touching base on the whole issue over rating and skills. I agree rating does show some of your buff, but like troopatroop said, location is HUGE. I have the pleasure of playing at Millenium Games and Hobbies in Rochester, which is well, full of complete scrubs minus a select handfull of us. Only about 2 out of the 5 rounds do I actually have to "play" real magic. The other matches are fetching in response to a Stone Rain targeting my Polluted Delta and laughing. Anyways, all I'm saying is it is def. much harder to keep a competitive rating playing in VA or Syracuse every week than playing weekly at Millenium Games and Hobbies.


Therefore, rating doesn't prove everything.

I have a fun time playing tournaments in Auburn where we get about 10 players each week for various formats. I have never not made top two and win a majority of the time. Even when the format is something dumb like T2 Peasant, I win. But alas they are all unsanctioned.

The two big Legacy events I've made top 8 at weren't sanctioned, nor are Vintage events where I usually do well.

I haven't played too many times at Millenium Games and Hobbies to really comment about the type of players that play there on a regular basis. I do think the store is really great when compared to the places we have to play here in Syracuse.

I really think the better players in Rochester are very nice and easy to get along with. I just wish that the players in Syracuse would follow a similar role, instead of just trash talking on how much better especially Team Epic is that everyone else.

Good luck to everyone and hopefully this will be a very worth while tournament to participate in.

He was probably the worst player I've ever seen with good cards. I mean... He had the win on the board, but he just opted not to attack for it. He had survival out... but just didn't use it. Tons of mana and a full hand. So he just watched me win in 3 turns after Survival. He goes...

You also have to consider who actually made day 2 because of the 3 round byes, Obfuscate_Freely, Me,and Deep6er. The reason those 2 didn't make it was because Edinger was playing very poorly, and Elgin didn't listen to me and didn't play enchantress.

First of all, your response is not logically at all. A lot of times when attending a big magic event there is always the "best deck" which you could play, but that doesn't necessarily mean its the "best deck" you should play in a given metagame.

I will evaluate what the metagame will be and adjust according. I suggest any magic player will do the same in order to do well.

...I will evaluate what the metagame will be and adjust according...


I don't want to sound pessimistic, but how is that possible until the tournament is actually over and results are posted, kind sir? I think it's pretty safe to assume no one will intentionally reveal what they are playing (unless you refer to wastedlife's comment: The deck you advocate is the deck you play). You'll see it all, so play what you feel is the best choice. You don't necessarily have to advocate one deck if you have a large card pool.

First of all, your response is not logically at all. A lot of times when attending a big magic event there is always the "best deck" which you could play, but that doesn't necessarily mean its the "best deck" you should play in a given metagame.

I will evaluate what the metagame will be and adjust according. I suggest any magic player will do the same in order to do well.

You don't know the metagame yet, and you said that you weren't playing Affinity. Seems pretty straight forward.

Metagames are near impossible to predict in Legacy. This is the most casual format ever.

You also have to consider who actually made day 2 because of the 3 round byes, Obfuscate_Freely, Me,and Deep6er. The reason those 2 didn't make it was because Edinger was playing very poorly, and Elgin didn't listen to me and didn't play enchantress.

I did play Enchantress. I got knocked out by Blood Oath.

I do believe you can make a pretty informed decision about the Legacy metagame when preparing for bigger scale tournaments. I will admit that Legacy is a wide open format where a multiple of decks can win. We still do have the top tier decks in Legacy that does consistently show up with multiple Top 8's finishes.

Legacy may of been a casual format a few years back, but with recent Grand Prix's that Wizards have made, I don't think its so casual anymore.

Which is a good thing. The only issue when predicting a metagame, is when everyone does it, and plays the predicted hate deck. So if, Goblins is what you think is going to be at least 25% of the field, you need to prepare well for the anti-goblin mirror match for quite a few matches.

Di
03-31-2007, 02:35 PM
You can only predict a very small portion of the metagame. Basically, you can expect the tier 1 and then maybe a couple decks, but that's it. Legacy has too large of a card pool and is too casual of a format to predict a metagame successfully, unlike Vintage, which although has an extensive card pool, there are only a select few decks you will see because randomness tends to lose.

That said, you can prepare to go up against something like Goblins, or Threshold, or some sort of combo. But beyond that it's really a guess. Every time I walk into a large legacy event, there's at least 2-3 rounds where I play something that I didn't expect to see. So metagaming is impossible really, but you can at least tune the deck the best you can to beat every aspect you can possibly see.

I remember eating at a place once that served a giant burger/fry combo (1lb burger/ 1 lb fries) that if you ate it all it was free. (the had a huge assortment of different burgers/sandwiches/etc) The food was great as was the alcohol. I googled the location and I think it is:
Hooligan's Sports Grille

Liverpool, NY 13090
Obviously if someone from the area knows if I am correct or not that would be super.

I was wondering how stong the players were for this tournament last time? I know that a lot of The Epic Syndicate lives near Syracuse and Rochester has a few decent players. Also is the Virginia crew going to show to this event or GPT's? While this tournament is going to be awesome winning 3 byes for an event as large as the GP seems like the more logical choice. I'm thinking about switching decks I'm not sure if Goblins is going to be good meta call for this tourny.

I might have the Forces and Deltas for sale at eBay prices. I'm not sure what Kadi's policy about selling cards is going to be since I'm sure Eli will be on hand also, but I do have a huge number of extra cards I need to get rid of fast, and I'm looking at selling in person at MOTL prices.

I think everyone is over stating the costs of Buffalo Wild Wings, it really isn't that expensive. No more than if we go to Hooters or a restaurant very similar.

I pretty sure everyone can handle the cost of going out.

Someone mentioned a place where you can eat something and get your meal for free. Well, they have a 7lb. burger that if you finish it you eat free, but then again, 7lb. is like 28 little hamburgers...yikes. Anyway, it wasn't half bad - they have a wall of hot sauces, an okay selection of alcohol and pitchers, and interesting decor. Just throwing that out there.

WHEN YOU SIGNUP YOU GET A CHOICE OF A FREE PHYREXIAN NEGATOR, XANTID SWARM, OR SMOKESTACK.

This was on the main page, what exactly does it mean. I interpret it as either you sign up for the tourny and get one of those cards. Either that or you sign up for the tourny and are in the running for a raffle for those cards. One of my teammates needs 4x Negators so if we get them just for showing acquiring that card wouldn't be a problem.

Rw Goblins if Jeff is still playing them. otherwise, just another Rg
Survival of some build. Shit's good, and it's been played alot more often lately
Solidarity, as Mike'll be there
Landstill, some variant. Not BHWC, because I can't even figrue out their manabase.
Faery Stompy or aFOWnity, not both
