Check out my entire GP Lille report on itsJulian.com.The idea ro rent a castle for Grand Prix Lille first came up during Team Euroswag’s American raid in November 2014. For the most part nobody really took it very seriously — up until Felix started collecting offers for different places in and around Lille. We had first come across a giant chateau about 100km from the city, but since it didn’t come with its own horse chariot we decided to opt for the somewhat smaller yet much closer Chateau des Ormes. With a maximum capacity of 15 people, we called up some of our friends and filled the remaining slots in basically no time.
Including:
- Report of my Trial, Main Event and the Bazaar of Dual Lands
- Elves Deck Tech with Matej Zatlkaj
- Elves Deck Tech with Helium
- Matt Pavlic pronouncing German card names on helium
- LOTS of pictures :-)

The seven cardinal sins of Legacy:
1. Discuss the unbanning ofLand TaxEarthcraft.
2. Argue that banning Force of Will would make the format healthier.
3. Play Brainstorm without Fetchlands.
4. Stifle Standstill.
5. Think that Gaea's Blessing will make you Solidarity-proof.
6. Pass priority after playing Infernal Tutor.
7. Fail to playtest against Nourishing Lich (coZ iT wIlL gEt U!).
I did not play maindeck Ad Nauseam, please don't insult me.

In all seriousness though, this was one of the best tournament experiences ever. I can only recommend other people do this kind of stuff as well.

Great report, and I lol'd thoroughly at the German card reading.
Awesome report Julian! We look forward to seeing you in Seattle. Hopefully the meta changes a bit before then .

How does this work? Chalice isn't 'may'. If it was I'd respect the gamble; but since it isn't I can't see any other explanation that isn't cheating on your part. Unless I'm missing something?For most part of G2 though, things look grim for me as she has my entire hand locked down with Chalice while beating in with True-Name Nemesis and Mutavault. At 5 life, I eventually have to go for it and cast Glimpse of Nature – it resolves. When I cast my next Elf and announce the Glimpse trigger, she realizes her mistake and counters the Elf. Fortunately for me, the Chalice doesn’t stop the Glimpse trigger and I proceed to draw quite a lot of cards
EDIT: Looked up rules
Huh interesting. Not cheating, much respect.Players are expected to remember their own triggered abilities; intentionally ignoring one is Cheating. Players are
not required to point out the existence of triggered abilities that they do not control, though they may do so within
a turn if they wish.
What a douche! I like that you wrote his full name in your report, tooOriginally Posted by Julian23
And you've just described 80% of Miracles players in the world.
Yes, that's the feeling I got from our chats. In the end it's about fun and then pride/glory, in that order.Originally Posted by Julian23
Great report, sorry that the Magic gods didn't ban anything, but hope to see you in Seattle.

Who in their right mind would ever eat Schnitzel together with Sauerkraut? For the record: I have never ever tried Sauerkraut in my entire life; even if you were to pay me, it smells so badly, can't really get anywhere near it.
Schnitzel on the other hand is fine :-)
Dan, you realize that a real Lederhosen can easily cost 1.000,- € ++?

Prepraring a good schnitzel is not hard, but if done incorrectly, it really, really hurts your experience. The best kind is a "Wiener Schnitzel" (Vienna Schnitzel) followed by "Wiener Art" (Vienna Style). The former is the real high end one made from calves, while the later one is made from pork or turkey, but otherwise prepared in the same way. A real calve one will easily cost +70% more than just a Wiener Art one.
We should get sdematt in here to post the Wiener Schnitzl he had in Vienna.

So... I google-imaged "schnitzel" and got this:
which I only recognize because it was Finn's avatar. Wtf?
Sounds similar to crab cakes. If you get one loaded with real crab meat, you'll rave about them. If you get them for a dollar each, you'll soon realize you wasted a dollar.
Edit: Oh F me! I confused schnitzel and spaetzle.
I've never had spaetzle that I've enjoyed...
Baby cow is delicious. I love me some veal.
Haha those were the only German foods I could think of. I don't even know what schnitzel is. But I always get sauerkraut on my hot dogs. I am American scum.
Also I had no idea that lederhosen were so expensive. I'm low maintenance. We can just eat a bunch of pastries and call it a day.
I like this plan.

Looks like you can get lederhosen from Walmart for ~$35.
