    I usually try not to be too hard to people on camera but this match has been appalling. Just so many misplays.

    There simply has to be a limit...I have no idea how many cameras it would take for me to try tapping a Rest In Peace for mana, but it would sure need to be more than two.

    The guy with the indoor sunglasses could have won by Porting the control player's land. Instead, he gave him enough mana to Toxic Deluge.

    Maybe he couldn't read what Port says because of his sunglasses. He also tapped Rest In Peace and tried to use it for mana.
    I am convinced that WotC is "dumbing" the game because of all the stupid posts they come across on MTG-related forums

    What was the dice thing all about in the end? I thought they were counting additional turns but they didn't stop at five. Maybe sounds would have told what's going on but I'm watching muted stream so I'm just baffled.

    I think it was related to a slow-play warning.

    Yeah, slow play warning gave them 7 extra turns instead of 5.

    There were many other reasons, but at least that one could be logically explained.

    Would it really be so hard to ask around for some local Legacy "specialists" who might not have had byes, so the feature match could actually feature something? Plus it would be a nice nod to the local community.

    These guys still represent the average player. People are too spoiled by watching only pros play on camera.

    Have we taken bets on what is going to top 8? I'm assuming 28/32 Brainstorm and 28/32 DRS, assuming that 1 Dragon Stompy/D&T player who managed to dodge all of their bad matchups/Lands player who managed to dodge lotus petals/Eldrazi player who is playing legacy for the first time manages to top 8.

    I'd love to have a battle of wits with you but I see you lack the necessary equipment.

    My money is on 24/32 Brainstorms and 20/32 DRS, but only because the Top 16 and Top 32 are choke-full with the rest that didn't make it on the breakers.

    Usually Legacy GP's have 16-20/32 Brainstorms in the top 8, and then the top 32 is 88/96, and Wotc gets to pretend everything is fine.

    I'm thinking at least half will be some combination of Czech Pile and Grixis Delver.
