Community project: Gathering Top 32 of GP Madrid

[Blitzbold]

This is meant to be some kind of experience. SCG at least managed to post the Top 16 of their most recent tournament yesterday, but as I already mentioned in the coverage thread I fear that the top 16 or 32 of GP Madrid is lost if we don't do something about it ourselves. I am not talking decklists here, just information about the decks placing the best in this enormous tournament. Decklists would be great of course.

There were so many Sourcers at the tournament and also quite a lot of people lending cards to players. Players communicate, so in my opinion there is a good chance that there are enough members who know a guy who knows a player ... yout get it. So let's try it!

Good luck to us!

[Micron]

Right now I'm only able to help with these two:

9 Del Riego, Rafael [ESP] -> Ugr Faeries ft Jace, the Mind Sculptor (the one who defeated LSV)
15 Bonade, Federico [ITA] -> ANT

[Equinozio]

Jorge Pinazo was playing a UR Goblin Control or least was what he said he was going to play.

[MMogg]

Yeah, for all the glory Madrid has brought to Legacy, it's still the red-headed stepchild in Wizards' eyes. Just look how pretty much one day after Madrid and the Daily MTG page at Wizards has PT San Diego being the big story and you can't even see GP Madrid until you scroll down. Legacy seems to have had literally 15 minutes of fame at Wizards.

As the biggest event in history, it would have been nice if they would have given the event some post-game attention to. It's like Legacy is a weekend lover or something. Sorry, it was nice, had a great weekend playing with you, but gotta get back to the wife (Standard) and kids (Extended). :cry:

[Valarne]

Kristoffer Nielsens (13th) decklist can be found here:

http://www.danskmagic.com/news/index.php?ID=1973

Another Dane, Kristian Heibing, finished 35th, also playing MonoU Merfolk.

You realise Mothership articles are given several days to be written, right? The Pro Tour feature article was planned for today long before the registration queue even opened in Madrid. Wait until the next Flores and/or BDM columns.

[Julian23]

17 Nikitin, Dmitry [RUS]

He's been playing putting forward a very interesting RGw Aggro Loam list for a while.

[Mictlantecuhtli]

30 Wagner, Rob C [ESP]

Rob posts in the UK Legacy forums (not sure why he appears as from Spain). He played Zoo with Elspeth.

[PhanTom_lt]

17 Nikitin, Dmitry [RUS]
Rgw Loam deck he developed - Oblivion Rings, Top, Loam, Seismic Assault, Q.Pridemage, Knight of the Reliquary, Tarmogoyf, StP are the cards I saw when I played the last round against him. Damn, had I won, I would've been probably 14th-15th. Ended up 45th with Bant Countertop featuring Jace the Mind Sculptor and Elspeth.

18 Adebo Diaz, Juan Carlo [ESP]

RG Belcher

[Micron]

16 Noguez Aignasse, Jason [ESP] -> MonoU Merfolk-Faeries (from the oficial coverage)

[Blitzbold]

Thank you very much. I added all the information so far to the OP.

[godryk]

I just posted it in my blog (http://sololegacy.blogspot.com/2010/03/reuniendo-el-top-32-del-gp-de-madrid.html), just to see if I can help.

So far I have:

10 Garcia, Sergio [ESP] - Supreme Blue with Jace
16 Noguez Aignasse, Jason [ESP] - Mono U Merfolk / Fearies hybrid Confirmed any another user
18 Adebo Diaz, Juan Carlo [ESP] - RG Belcher Confirmed any another user


Vague references:

31 Truchado, Rafael [ESP] - Countertop, I'll try to get more info about the version, probably Ug.
Someone says an english guy who ended in Top 32 was playing Lands.dec. Maybe 29 Light, Matt [ENG]?

[1rakete]

Jan Sudman played LED-based Dredge.

[Eldariel]

Pablo Diaz was playing mono-red burn. You can find his feature match vs. Paulo Vitor on Round 13.

[Maveric78f]

Just got this info from the french community:
23 Barsamian, Yann [FRA] Thresh
27 Catelain, Alexi [FRA] Ichorid feat. Bloodghast

I'm trying to dig more information on Yann.

[Maveric78f]

For Yann, it was apparently an old-shcool Urg build with 17 lands, mental notes and no wastelands/stifle.

[Enigma]

Truchado, Rafael [ESP] was playsing some sort of CB (UGW(x?)) featuring New Jace.

http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/eventcoverage/gpmad10/welcome#9

[Blitzbold]

Updated the OP.

[yankeedave]

Rob Wagner (30th) is defo [ENG] and not [ESP].

[Esper3k]

17 Nikitin, Dmitry [RUS]
Rgw Loam deck he developed - Oblivion Rings, Top, Loam, Seismic Assault, Q.Pridemage, Knight of the Reliquary, Tarmogoyf, StP are the cards I saw when I played the last round against him.

18 Adebo Diaz, Juan Carlo [ESP]

RG Belcher

I played against Dmitry in one of the San Diego side events - he also had Lightning Bolts in the deck. No Chalice or Crusher that I saw though.

20 Knoerr, Sebastian [DEU]: I played against him in San Diego as well. He was playing Mono Blue Merfolk when we played and was talking about playing it in Madrid (we spoke about the deck for quite awhile).

[practical joke]

Matt light (29) played intuition lands, I played against him in round 10. ( I won, so he made some nice results after that loss)

[Gocho]

Pablo Diaz was playing mono-red burn. You can find his feature match vs. Paulo Vitor on Round 13.

After reading the Feature Match, I think that he played mono-red Sligh. Ball of Lightning and Grim Lavamancer would come in, but Figure of Destiny and Goblin Guide aren't Burn cards.

[kroelai]

I losed the mirror in the last round against

28 De Gottrau, Ludovic [CHE]

He is playing an UB ANT list, a bit like Saito's list.

[godryk]

24 Brea, Jorge [ESP] - Countertop Progenitus according to comments in my blog.

[Julian23]

Could anyone of you be so kind to upload the final to youtube? I realize there were about 4-5 people shooting it so, by chance, is one of them on this forum? Would be REALLY great for all of ous!

[godryk]

32 Pinazo, Jorge [ESP] - Goblins. Don't know more.

[Shugyosha]

For Yann, it was apparently an old-shcool Urg build with 17 lands, mental notes and no wastelands/stifle.

Wow, I'm very interested in the decklist. Which creatures (Werebears, too?), burn, sideboard, etc.

[Blitzbold]

Updated.

Yeah, that Ugr list also interests me.

[Equinozio]

32 Pinazo, Jorge [ESP] - Goblins. Don't know more.

He played UR goblins

[practical joke]

lyszek also played kira in his mainboard between the fishies. might be interesting to kow. ( he pitched it to a FoW against me)

[thorin_the_king]

He played UR goblins

I'd really like to see his new lists, always been interested in goblin control lists.

[Holiday]

Just 3 unknowns left? Great job, everyone!
This is really helpful.

[lena91]

i want a list of:

9 Del Riego, Rafael [ESP] - Ugr Fearies feat. new Jace
23 Barsamian, Yann [FRA] 'Classic' Ugr Thresh (non-tempo)

someone knows that?

[deathdealer]

I'd really like to see his new lists, always been interested in goblin control lists.

agreed Id like to see that list aswell

[Esper3k]

20 Knoerr, Sebastian [DEU]: I posted this on the first page, but I guess it got missed. I'm pretty certain he played Mono U Merfolk because I played against him in San Diego and that's what he was playing and said he was going to take to Madrid. Will need further confirmation on if he actually played it.

Yann's list (UGR Thresh Old School, 23rd)

Oh, sure, the list can look weird, but he's a capable player ;)

I was actually planning to play such a build as well, but with Predicts instead of Mental Note and with maindeck Needle. It can work out well, since every relevant cardadvantage is currently based on Sensei's Divining Top, Aether Vial and/or Survival of the Fittest. Also works well against Planeswalkers.
But for sure such an old-schoolish build requires a lot of timing, if he managed to get that correctly I#m not wondered that he got so far, even with that list.

Guh, its premium only. WTF !

Since when do you need a premium account to watch decklists? O_o *dislike* <- In-fuckin-deed.


Oh wait, one month instead of three to come off premium. Okay, fair enough.
