    Thank you for posting this. Next time.

    Also, I'm sorry that my suggestion ended up costing you the tournament :(.

    You played some douchebags it seems.

    I don’t know about other people, but in Legacy I can sit down across from someone and I can usually tell what they’re playing based on how they’re dressed and their personality. My opponent looked like an asshole, he was playing Merfolk.
    Nice report Bryant, and I'll try to take note of this next time I play any tourneys. Good advice.
    Decks that I care about:
    Steel Stompy
    UWx Landstill
    Dreadstalker
    DDFT (10% practice)

    Mangara on MWS? You must be masochistic. -kiblast

    Ok, now you have to give us a primer on spotting decks based on player appearance/personality.

    I was going to comment on the same line, as it made my day, and I see everyone already got there. Nice report.

    Every time I want to stop playing Storm, you make me believe again.

    I'm going to pick up your build - it looks super solid and the maindeck Xantids are excellent in the current Merfolk-infested meta.

    Thanks for the report.

    Congrats on the very respectable finish in bluedeck.metagame.

    Bryant,

    It was a pleasure meeting and playing against you. Glad to see you were able to end the tournament strong after our match.

    I was talking to Chuck before your car showed up, commenting on how late you guys were since I wanted my seven playmats. But, thanks for bringing them for us! Also, congrats on the finish!

    Did the Affinity kid deserve it because he was a prick, or because you didn't want to Tendrils him since he was so sweet and innocent?

    I guess he was suppose to concede.

    Hi, I'm Alex the Zoo player you played against on Day 1. I have to apologize that you missed my humor in telling you I wanted you to mull to 3. I did not actually want that, as tough to believe as that may be. I would have rather had us play a real game. I merely made a dry joke about my mull in our first game. I did put the Choke on the table rather quickly but I felt that the play was rather key to the game and was surprised I was even given the opportunity to cast Choke in such an advantageous position when it played a key role in Game 2 as well. You failed to mention that I Red Elemental Blast'd your second Brainstorm in Game 3 to keep you from making up on your disadvantage in mulling to 6. It was a ballsy keep that did not work out, though probably would have if that Brainstorm resolves. I have to admit that I did not recognize your name and was not 100% on what deck you were playing until you revealed your hand at the end of Game 3. In hindsight, I sideboarded completely and utterly wrong and essentially stole a match from you. If it makes you feel better, I flamed out on Day 2 and failed to cash. Again, apologies on coming off as an asshole. I apparently have a knack for that but have been told that people come around once they get to know me.

    Also, you spelled douchebag wrong. It must come from looking at all your foreign, foil cards all the time. Your deck was significantly more sexy than mine.

    I love how half of the people on this forum would serve their tongue if you ever lacked toilet paper after crap.

    Good report, nonetheless.

    May I quote your amazing skill? :)

    Sucks that you lost to douchebags talking shit. Good finish despite all the Merfolk.

    If someone plays control like Landstill or Counterbalance, what kind of person are they? I assume people that play Burn are kids?

    What kind of deck does a person play if they wear a suit to the GP? (I did).

    I get to sit through it every time I see bryant. Good times. (Especially when he looses to elves after grapeshotting me game 1.)

    Congrats on making day 2, and bad beats on some of those MU's and draws. Hopefully I'll see you around again so the trash talk can continue
    Will says I'm in BZK. I don't know what is going on.

    It's Gitaxian Probe, and I don't particularly love it. That's a damn-near impossible match up as it is.

    I was a little bitter to be faced vs Belcher in the 3-0 slot, then see you after drawing poorly vs Merfolk.
