Shorter article this week due to, uh, injury - I break down the complete meta from the 40-player AU Blue Bell Legacy Showdown on 11/7, with some thoughts on the Bloodghast Dredge list I ran and all the decklists from the top 8.
Enjoy...

Still a nice article even though it was short. I am glad to hear the bloodghast thing isn't working out, as my initial reaction was that it was garbage and the guy who placed got lucky, and it is always good to see one's intuition being correct.
I also liked the transitions you make from legacy to vintage. I guess I never really thought about the fact that I probably have all I need for a 45 card vintage deck. Maybe I'll proxy something up when I get bored and give it a chance.

Nice article, always like to see reports and decklist numbers. Your use of River Kelpie in Ichorid is fascinating as I don't believe I've ever even heard of that card before. I feel similarly to FoulQ about the whole bloodghast thing, no arguments here. Your LEDed list looks pretty solid aside from an insistence I must make on finding room for the 4th cabal therapy! Keep up the good writing work!

Nice read.
I would suggest you to take a look on spansih lists (http://www.deckcheck.net/deck.php?id=29531) running both Ichorid and Bloodghast, they may interest you. They're not incompatible at all.

I was wondering if the ANT list with Burning Wish was TES or NLS, or just Burning Wish with only AdN for a win.

It was actually TES, it was just mislabeled by the TO on the list of decks I got.
Side note, the deck was full of alters... beautiful deck.
