    An interesting top 8, unfortunetly the typical trash rose to the top. I'm all set watching Shaman activations and cantrips for the next thirty minutes.

    What is that, the last 3 events have been won by Predict Miracles now? Do people still enjoy this format as it is?

    Wow legacy so diverse and great!
    Miracles wins again
    Still Best deck
    No end in sight
    All best players say it's best deck
    Bob Huang even says he switched because it's clear they have higher win rates

    Wonder why people complains about this?

    Congrats to Jesture for coming in 22nd on Infect!

    I have nothing to add about Miracles. Also shocked at how poorly Sneak & Show did.

    69 day 2 decks

    8 miracles
    4 in top 16 including winner

    7 four-color control... the "miracles killer"
    Highest placement: 22

    What more can we say?

    I guess Eli decided that losing with janky miscut cards isn't better than destroying people with just straight pimp.

    That's more accurately put as "better than Delver against Miracles". With perfect play on the 4c player's part it's probably slightly in their favor, but the main draw (at least from my perspective) is that it's a substantially more enjoyable deck to play than Miracles is (which is entirely because I hate playing with Counterbalance; otherwise I'm all about doing nothing).

    I knew exactly why I went to bed after the technical problems before the semis.

    The outcome was "predictable".

    TBH no blue deck can be considered the "Miracles killer." You want to beat Miracles, play 4c Loam.

    It was certainly a refreshing change. I hope he never goes back to NFCs.
    The purpose of any moat is to impede attack. Some are filled with water, some with thistles. Some are filled with things best left unseen.

    I'm one of the 2 dead guy decks that made day 2. Ugh....They like to call it abzan death blade. Got my first camera feature match too. Lol, I've heard the commentators didn't like my deck at all and questioned me playing humility.

    It's enjoyable from time to time, when nobody in the room is playing Miracles ;-) But seriously, I like all the games I can play, unless it's vs Miracles. It's even less enjoyable if the pilot just jumped the bandwagon, and is just slow as hell. It's a downright disaster if they manage to win.

    Let's face it, Miracles is having a firm grip on player's deck choices. Makes you wonder; when will WotC take the banhammer and smash Miracles with it...?

    When Aaron Forsythe gets off his lazy ass.

    People should start to nag him (@mtgaaron) and WotC in general (@Wizards_Help) about the topic instead of just making undirected statements on Twitter.
