    I had the same problem like you against the Belcher guy...Opp is MonoW and has NOTHING but lets me do the Combo for like 10 minutes when I just wanna scoop it up and run to the toilet..:D Imagine you playing CounterThopters in that situation ^^
    Anyways, one last question: How was the Eye for you?
    I didn't see this before.

    Yeah, I punted the top 8 obviously. I lost.

    I didn't get to cast eye of nowhere. It was one of my goals going into the day too, I wanted to bounce someones land while going off... Everyone scoops nowadays.

    Once again Bryant, excellent work, congratulations.

    Although, I would like to point out that I told you to win the whole thing. You should do that next time.

    There's a fair amount of truth in that.

    Of course, I am really proud of this guy for getting the job (almost) done. That's something I can't say I've ever done. Then again, I've never been to a Grand Prix, so.

    Yeah, that was a pretty ridiculous game of edh. I have never had a 3 man game end in like 3 minutes.

    Impressive run, Mr Cook.

    I know coverages are hardly trustworthy and faithful to what took place in a game, but it seems from the published text that a line of play could have gone unnoticed.

    Cook started turn-five with Brainstorm and Rite of Flame. This was when Cook started noting his storm count. Dark ritual, Lion's Eye Diamond and Infernal Tutor raised the count to five. Cook responded to his Infernal Tutor by sacrificing Lion's Eye Diamond for black mana. The tutor searched up Ad Nauseam. Cook played Ad Nausem and revealed Silence, Chrome Mox , Infernal Tutor, Gemstone Mine, Dark Ritual, Duress, Infernal Tutor, Empty the Warrens, and Orim's Chant before stopping to think. After a short pause, Cook revealed one more card; Lotus Petal. Cook then played a land, Dark Ritual, Lotus Petal, Chrome Mox, and finally Empty the Warrens for eighteen Goblins. Facing down a Goblin horde, Durward took to the air by discarding Vengevine to Survival of the Fittest for Wonder then pitching Wonder for Basking Rootwalla. Cook played Orim's Chant with kicker during combat to preserve his precious two life points.
    There is one extra storm in the coverage account. "Infernal Tutor raised the count to five." plus AN, DR, Petal, Mox and ETW.

    In case they just screwed up on storm count, it seems you could still tendrils him out with IT for Dark Ritual for the missing copy.

    Do you know what's wrong/missing in the coverage story?

    Once again, great job.

    I don't know about the coverage. Over all it was pretty bad.

    However, I remember I couldn't tendrils him out because I couldn't get hellbent.

    Re: Storming to Top 8: GP Columbus

    Congratz Bryant on top 8'ing you deserved it. Lulz on grapeshotting that one guy who said to show him the tendrils....it was hilarious.

    I wish you bounced someone's land with eye of nowhere that would've been funny. Oh well.
