Parking is the main reason most of our larger events are on Sundays
Behind the store there are numbered spaces.
Knight Ware has spaces 9, 10, and 11
but
on Sundays, our neighbors are usually closed

The streets are metered but not checked on sundays
The first street to the west of us is Lankersheim Blvd..
On Lankersheim to the south there is unregulated street parking
Just west of Lankersheim (north side of the street) is an open lot that says
additional MTA parking. It does not get used much on the weekends
unless the hollywood bowl is running something and then there will be signs

any questions, post, call or email me

thanks

According to your status line, you are a dirty combo player. We do not allow people to play combo here at Knight Ware, sorry. Fair decks only.

I'm afraid we're going to have to hold you to your own words then. You're only allowed to play Vial Dwarves now.

[sclabman]

Vial munchkins. Yes yes. Competitive.

Sorry, I'm playing Vial Knights.

Best. Deck. Ever.

[Ozymandias]

BRAAINS! Er, I mean, guess I'll be Dr-BRAAAAAAAINS!

[2Rach]

Sorry, I'm playing Vial Knights.

Yeah, beats combo.

But I like my rounds only taking 15 minutes!

[everythingitouchdies]

I might be willing to floor judge just to hover over liam's games. Especially if its vial knights.

I refuse. If you want to see me play. You are welcome to try. We keep this shit on the down low my respectful African-American friend.

[everythingitouchdies]

Liam, stop getting in trouble and making slurs.

I will hit Lori up and consider judging, if I decide to do so I will have my plethora of cards available for people to borrow should they need. As always, contact me first and I will bring anything you need if I have it.

True dat.

It seems that people are not realizing that you are Ben and I am Liam and we fuck around.

Oh well, I apologize.

[Team-Hero]

I *might be there since it will my only chance to get a competative perspective before SCG Los Angeles.

*I'll be driving all the way from Arizona.

Thats a fucking hike. I hope we see you there.

[everythingitouchdies]

I am definitely going to play, and if I can assemble a hefty number of cards and get a few games in with my current brainstorm I will be playing something ridiculous. Any way around, look forward to seeing you all there.

Hey it will be great to see some from San Diego again.
We miss you


One more week, who else wants those Seas/Jace's?

You mean, who wants Seas. I already laid claim to the Jace's

[everythingitouchdies]

You mean, who wants Seas. I already laid claim to the Jace's

Yeah because you definitely need some Jaces.

Suppose its time to find a deck I can top 8 with.

[The Rack]

One more is comin with me

[lorddotm]

Yeah because you definitely need some Jaces.

Suppose its time to find a deck I can top 8 with.

Yeah, I'm thinking of throwing in the towel with TES.

[sclabman]

Why would you do that?!

[COBBLER]

Cus playing againt Countertop is like pulling your hair out i imagine thats the reason. lol

[lorddotm]

I'm actually 5-3 in sanctioned play against CBTop with TES. Vial Knights, thats the real curse.


I'm just getting tired of killing people so quickly. I never get to enjoy people's sorrow, and I feel like Counterbalance does that well. JUST KIDDING! I miss being able to say no to people, playing blue is very nice. Plus Tops are sooooo good.

There is definitely something fulfilling about playing blue spells, having the chance to capitalize on mistakes, and outpower your opponent through inevitability. Besides, I always die to my own spells in my easy rounds with TES. I can beat dragon stompy and CB any day, but aggro loam and zoo always get me.

[COBBLER]

Lol "Zoo" that deck is just too unfair

[lorddotm]

Lol "Zoo" that deck is just too unfair

More than 1 card with a white mana symbol, they are so busted. Ban Lightning Bolt.

[TracerBullet]

You guys better make room in the top 8. I don't come out just to rub elbows with the scrubs.

[everythingitouchdies]

Tezz will not be unveiled this time around, but its coming. See you guys tomorrow.

[everythingitouchdies]
