Thankfully they were cool and turned it into a year of premo subscription.

Not carrying my Legacy deck until Saturday, mostly. Other ones, I have to take the risk since I love EDH so much.

What LARPs will you crash and ruin after you drink and stumble back to the convention center?
Probably not any of them. Plan's clearly to stumble back to bed. Though drunk drafting
is a thing possibly.

Headaches? What are those?

[nedleeds]

Either a Talrand gush storm deck or this monster http://www.thecouncil.es/tcdecks/deck.php?id=8803&iddeck=64277

BWAHAHAHHAHAHAH clearly the blue vomit pile is the way to go ... Isn't copy artifact unrestricted? How does that not make the cut. Pitches to force in hand, becomes Vault/Monolth on board. Also that Cunning Wish looks really ... really ... important.

Dont make me actually try this deck... I need to focus... (likely playing BobJace for realsies)

[TooCloseToTheSun]

Who is going?
me and like 6 other people.

What formats are you playing?
Legacy and maybe some other lesser formats.

What card(s) are you looking to acquire?
None, probably will off load the trade stock and the standard crap I have.

How will you protect your pimp decks?
Baseball bats? More than likely vigilance.

What will you drink?
Brandy Old Fashion - The Wisconsin state mixed drink.

What LARPs will you crash and ruin after you drink and stumble back to the convention center?
I stay away from those people.

What will you eat the morning after in a vain attempt to quell the pounding headache?
The free breakfast at the hotel but at night we will be hitting up the 8 Lucky Buffet (http://www.8luckybuffet.com/)

[baghdadbob]

Who is going?
I am.

What formats are you playing?
Legacy!

What card(s) are you looking to acquire?
One more Moat to complete the play set. Maybe...
http://www.cardkingdom.com/media/images/products/standard/126603_1.jpg

How will you protect your pimp decks?
I have a large beard. I think people are afraid of it.

What will you drink?
I try to drink as little as possible to avoid bathroom breaks. Probably buy a 4 pack of 5 hour energy.

What LARPs will you crash and ruin after you drink and stumble back to the convention center?
I don't know what a "LARP" is nor do I have the energy to research it. I bet it's stupid though.

What will you eat the morning after in a vain attempt to quell the pounding headache?
5 gallons of strawberry Nesquik and tuna straight outta the can.

Cya guys there!!!

[aahz]

>Who is going?
Not I.

>What formats are you playing?
The good ones: Vintage, Legacy, EDH, Cube

>What card(s) are you looking to acquire?
Non-foil Vintage Dredge cards in funny moon languages (not too picky, the more varied and disjointed, the better). I can't really pimp my other Vintage deck much more unless I want to throw down for an Alpha Lotus and Alpha Sea or change the language (which is small potatoes for non-foils anyway).

>How will you protect your pimp decks?
By keeping them away from venues teeming with thieves (at least this year).

>What will you drink?
Booze of various sorts, maybe some water if I feel like it.

>What LARPs will you crash and ruin after you drink and stumble back to the convention center?
Didn't I already say I wasn't going?

>What will you eat the morning after in a vain attempt to quell the pounding headache?
Beer (<5% EtOH/vol) is the best at dealing with this scenario.

Good luck to everyone playing in Vintage Champs! (and I guess Legacy champs also).


Vintage (some idiotic blue-based combo deck)
Those are the best kind of combo decks! Keep your opponents going "WTF?!?!"

[Koby]

I'm not going, would enjoy playing Vintage and Legacy given a chance.

The only way to keep your pimp deck in check is keeping the pimp hand strong.

yaddayadda

I mostly wanted to say that Monoblue Belcher is the funniest deck I've ever seen make Top 8. That is all.
