    Good match ups man, I played you round one. I ended going 3-2-1 missing top 8 by the last match. Hope to see you again, remember don't let those shades dangle from your shirt collar

    Thanks for the heads up, and our match was tight game one.

    Hope to see you again soon.

    For the record I think you're an idiot for not taking a billet in Italy.

    Although it was pretty cool to see you.

    I didn't get offered Italy until the end; they gave me a list of places where I wanted to go and I actually had overseas as one of my first choices. But they ended up putting me in D.C. instead. I love it because I get to see my brother and friends and family all the time. For my second enlistment (should I choose to reenlist), I can go there if I want.

He doesn't get any dredgers and a Trinisphere followed by Natural Order prove to be too much for him to handle in the bout.

    Game II: After mulling down, Brian eventually stares down a beating from a few of my guys and a soon to follow Natural Order. The whole time he was getting Ichorid back and bringing my life down. I was at 8 following his current attack and he was at 9. He misses a Bridge trigger at end of turn because of Ichorid, but it didn't matter because I had Progenitus in play which was good enough to seal the deal the turn after. He was probably one of the nicest guys I've ever played against. But, give the man his props: He was sitting at 2-1 at one point, in his first tournament, playing ICHORID of all decks. Not bad.

    [3-1] [6-2-0]
    I'd like to point out how new Brian is. When you played him, he had been playing Magic, not just legacy but the actually game, for a total of one week. ONE WEEK. We were all impressed at how good he is already.

    My point exactly in that report; he earned my respect by being a classy player with a developing sense of how the game is played after only playing for such a short period of time. My props to him entirely.

    2-1 in a Legacy tournament with one week experience is absolutely ludicrous. I didn't play in my first real tournament of any kind until I'd been playing for six months and I went 2-2. Mad props to that guy.

    Just out of curiousity, how did the kid finish? I'm sure the warm welcome will help to make him a continuing Legacy player, hopefully.

    I believe his finishing record was 2-3 drop, but don't quote me on it. I know his two wins were against goblins and landstill...

    And you didn't point it out?

    Bad form.

    Brian realized it on his own later. He was beating himself up over it actually lol.

    ..

    even though its not a "may effect" (on the bridge) you would still get a "missed trigger" warning at a real tournament for that, right?
    would you get a zombie though if you missed the trigger and a judge was called?

    Woah; watch it there, guy. Know the facts before you write (and immediately suggest) something like that again.

    I didn't even know what he had in his graveyard until his end of turn step came along because he was doing nothing in the first place. I couldn't even see his graveyard because it was piled and I had a Progenitus on the table when he was low enough to die from a single attack and I was substantially healthier in life. His Bridges (in all fairness) should have been removed the previous turn because I sacrificed a guy TO Natural Order. He even pointed it out that it didn't matter anyways, even after we retraced what had happened.

    I was helping him phase by phase in game one so that he understood the progression of his phases and triggers involved. I even asked him, "Are you SURE you're done" several times; giving him a chance to think what he did over and giving him an opportunity to scape his cards and read and understand what exactly they did.

    It looks to be an honest mistake, just sort of poorly worded. My apologies.

    Congrats on the finish, Hollywood. I am keeping up with the deck further developments and have a little crush on it. Hope you can get it to be even better.

    On the Missed Trigger situation, if a player forgets a mandatory trigger and figures it out within a turn cycle (which is the time window between the phase when it should have resolved and that very same phase in that player's next turn), the judge should give him a Warning for Game Play Error - Missed Trigger, give the opponent a Warning for Game Play Error - Failure to Maintain Game State (as both players are held responsible for the game. Your supposed lack of access to his graveyard should not save you from that), then put the triggers on the stack.

    If over a turn cycle passed, you both get penalties, but triggers are not stacked. The same works for missing removing the Bridges from the yard.

    In case the player not controlling the triggers realises as soon as he possibly could that his opponent missed them, they won't get penalized. Intentionaly waiting for the turn-cycle to be over before "remembering" a trigger, or intentionaly forgetting a "bad" trigger is Cheating, as are most intentional offenses.

    I didn't mean to be a pain or to spoil anything, but to explain how this situations and others alike should be dealt with by the judge. When in doubt, always call a judge. This seems like one very important thing to teach to the savant dredge newcomer.

    Once again, congrats on the finish. Really cool deck!

    I think everyone should post wrestling links in their tourny reports. Watching 'Hollywood' Hulk Hogan drop the big leg down on the Rock and the Rock over sell the leg drop made my day. Tho you not going to Gen Con sucked Munkey Balls.
