Nice run bud. Glad to hear I'm not alone in thinking combo is very much still alive, you just have to not suck to play it.

I still think it would've been highly entertaining to watch you play on Sunday.

Nice report, and apparently I need to do something about my TES matchup. Like playing forests.

Before I saw his face, I recognized you were playing Kadi by that huge fucking die he always carries around.

Great Report.

I am quite new to Legacy, being a budget Vintage Player who allways loved Combo Decks.
Being in the Vintage Scene for a long time I've learned one thing: Restrictions (well in Legacy bannings) are not shutting down complete Deck-Types, such as Combo. Playing Storm means you've got to chain your way to lethal Tendrils(or whatever Card that wins). Looking at the Top Decklist I read 2(only two fucking MT's). Seriously guys... giving up 2-4 Cards of your Deck is not a thing to burst in tears for. You'll find other Cards which you might even like better. Vintage Combo has survived Brainstorm as 1off which I think was far more important than MT's Banning.
I'm not trying to compare both, but in my opinion Storm Combo is that good, because it's able to change under given circumstances as propably no other mechanic in the game can. Now is not the time to give up, but tinker, test and try some new ways.

Well I think Reanimator is capable of doing great plays because of some new creaturs with great abilities, namely Iona, Terastodon, Blazing Archon, Imperial Archangel, Sphinx and Inkwell. Actually those are good reasons to play reanimator, if you ask me. ;P

Again: Great Report! Made me want to go off Bad-Ass-Style with combo, again.
