FAQ and matters of etiquette:



First and foremost, and something that should generally go without saying, is be a fucking gentleman. I am not running this to stuff someone’s wallet. I am running this because Legacy is fun. And while I do expect it to be played in a professional and competitive manner, it should in no way be treated as cutthroat.


Cockatrice is the official program of this tournament. Anyone who needs help using Cockatrice just has to ask. If the individual pairings decide that they want to use MWS or MODO instead, that’s up to them, but not being able to play your match because you don’t have Cockatrice means you won’t be playing in this tournament at all.


Lurkers, friends, and people just signing up are welcome to join. The only stipulation is that you must personally represent yourself on The Source, and failure to keep in touch will result in you being dropped like a bad habit. That last bit going for active members as well.


Unlike the first one, this tournament is not free. There is a $10 entry fee. This fee can be made via PayPal to. Please include your Source username along with your payment. If you'd like to or need to pay the entry fee via another method, message me and I can try to work something out.

If you're from overseas and have to deal with excessive exchange fees, you may feel free to deduct the exchange fee from the total amount being sent. Simply message me a screenshot to verify. Any other basic fees are at the expense of the person submitting.


You can private message or post your deck code at any time prior to the start of the tournament, and that deck code will be put on display to ensure fair play. Your deck may not be changed or altered at any time during the tournament. Once the tournament reaches top eight, the full decklist will be required and will be distributed.

For those of you who don’t know what a “deck code” is, it’s the eight-character code that displays when you load a deck in Cockatrice. It will never change so long as you play exactly the same deck.


Do not share another person’s decklist without their permission. I know many will run their hallmark decks and that many may not care and that it may be obvious in many circumstances, but there’s no reason to aggressively scout this tournament. If someone wants to post about their own deck, feel free to join in. But don’t post about someone else’s sweet tech if they haven’t come out with it first, and certainly don’t message BigDong87 and tell him that he’ll be playing against RUG Delver next round.


Given the environment that the games are being played in, there will be no time limit for the match when it is being played. You are, however, still expected to play at a reasonable pace. If someone is abusing this leniency, report them to me and provide proof, and I’ll work on it from there.


It’s accepted that people have work, school, kids, ladies, and lives that otherwise take place outside of Magic: The Gathering, and that you can’t just pop on whenever you feel like it to take care of this tournament. However, there must be a reasonable point when the round must end in order for the tournament to continue. So, rounds will last four days. That's about half a week and should be enough time to allow everyone to fit in a match around their usual schedules. You you are required to complete your games within that timeframe and are expected to coordinate your own times to play.


Unlike when this event was run as a bracket, there will be no lenience for those who are unable to complete their match in time. Being a Swiss event, one match lagging behind means everyone lags behind, and that is unacceptable. In general, if it becomes clear that a match will not be completed in time, the player who made the most earnest effort to get the match to happen will be granted the win while the player who came up short will be given a loss. In general, I ask that you be gentlemen about such situations. In the event that the players can't agree on a winner, I will be the final voice on the matter and may be forced to issue a draw.


Intentional draws or losses will not be allowed. Players determined to be exploiting the above note will be penalized or removed.


When your match is done, both players must post in this thread to confirm the results.


If you intend on dropping at any point during the tournament, please let me know. I am not a mind reader. Anyone who no-shows for two rounds will be considered dropped.


Along with being responsible for managing their own scheduling issues, players are also responsible for managing their rules issues. Players can and should keep replays, logs, and screenshots of their matches saved in case of a dispute. If you have a rules question and don’t have cdr’s cellphone, Cockatrice has a link for quick judge answers. (http://chat.magicjudges.org/mtgrules/) If there is a dispute that can’t be solved so easily, as with before, I am the final word.


In the event of a client crash, take a screenshot of as much information as possible and check if the client saved a replay. If a replay is available, use an available and agreed upon member to view the replay and help reconstruct the game. If a replay was not saved, use the screenshots to recreate the game to the best of your ability, and call upon a member to insure that all hands are accurate. If the game cannot be recreated or agreed upon, the players must replay their match. If you suspect your opponent is abusing this policy, report them to me.


Prizes to top four will be determined after the close of registration. Players finishing at 5th-8th will receive free entry to any one future event or the a comparable cash value.


Event information is subject to change.

This is the final day of registration.

If you need or want to register last minute but are suuuper busy and don't have time to formally do so today, send me a message. I'd be more than willing to help accommodate you.

Depending on when you last played, you might need to download the updated client.

http://www.woogerworks.com/?option=com_content&view=article&id=355

Make sure you save your decks to a separate folder just in case, and the server info is cockatrice.woogerworks.com (port: 4747).

[jrsthethird]

Still working on the list. Working all day today and tomorrow morning, so I'll have the code to you by tomorrow evening.

[blubberpompnao]

This is fine. So long as you have the code publicized before your first games, I'm happy. So long as it can be verified that the deck's contents remain consistent through every match.


Speaking of first round.
All this week I've been in the process of un-moving and, now that it's finally my day off, I owe my roommate a bit of responsibility in terms of whipping the place into shape. I've challenged myself to not turn on my computer at all today and (outside of a quick stress-relieving weekly later on tonight) I will be cleaning and shopping non-stop. Even after I get home from the weekly probably.

You can expect to see pairings promptly posted tomorrow morning. I can't risk posting pairings and then getting lured away from my responsibilities, and there will inevitably be questions (some stupid some not so stupid) that can't go unanswered.

[iamajellydonut]

I would blame the computer for eating my post, but it was honestly just me being an idiot.

2sec on those pairings...

[iamajellydonut]

Round One
You have four full days. Round ends October 12th @ 11:59pm EDT
Pairings for next round go up the following day.

Twenty-six people means five rounds of Legacy followed by a cut to top eight.


Round timing will work as follows... Four full days to get games completed. One full day for pairings, last minute games, and disputes.


Before you play your first game, you must post your deck code here.


Both players need to report results either in this thread or via private message.

[blubberpompnao]

Ouchie. Wasn't much of a speed bump to Speedbump, he took it in 3.

[Speedbump]

Ouchie. Wasn't much of a speed bump to Speedbump, he took it in 3.Confirmed. Match-up went about as expected, but the games were fun.

Props for blubberpompnao for playing at far-too-late o'clock, when he got back from work.

[crush]

Better late then never.. deckcode: oc3r51kk

[Einherjer]

My schedule is currently blowing up with all kinds of things. That's why I concede to davelin in the first round and would like to drop from the tournament.

Have a great tournament, guys.

[BeardTron]

bigwurdz got it 2-0

[bigwerdz]

bigwerdz 2-0 over BeardTron. Cockatrice connection issues throughout but still good games.

[VsTheWorld]

VsTheWorld 2-1 over raid. Bit of rough luck on both sides, he got the worse of it in the end.

[raid]

VsTheWorld beat me in three good games 2:1.

[Sloshthedark]

deck: sbfj9dqm

[kingsmooch]

Jeanval won 2-0, good game.

[Jeanval]

Took 2 games to 0 against Kingsmooch with a bit of luck, thanks for those nice games !

[Bosque]

I lucked out against Sloshthedark, took it 2-0.

[Sloshthedark]

found out my inbox was actually full of lands... the control role does not suit me I guess and Bosque punnished with surgical precision

Sloshthedark - Bosque 0-2

[dsck]

dsck 2-0 crush


I got rewarded for risky plays, greed is good:cool:

[crush]

Got steamrolled by dsck express.

[Quasim0ff]

Got manouvred out in 3 (close) games by The Architect. Excellent games. :)

He won 2-1.

[TheArchitect]

Beat Quasim0ff 2-1 in some close and enjoyable games.

[iamajellydonut]

So, for some reason I completely blanked on what day today was. We're not done early. But we are done on time without any conflicts. Which is pretty sweet. Pairings in a sec.

[btm10]

Is there a reason that dsck is playing two people? Did I miss something?

EDIT: If PirateKing or I play VsTheWorld and you play Quasim0ff, that means everyone gets paired, too.

[iamajellydonut]

Is there a reason that dsck is playing two people? Did I miss something?

Sorry. dsck just ended up getting copied twice by accident.

PirateKing vs Fry
btm10 vs dsck

Those are the intended match-ups.

[Fry]

Sorry. dsck just ended up getting copied twice by accident.

PirateKing vs Fry
btm10 vs dsck

Those are the intended match-ups.

By the way, it could be slightly confusing for the people who only look at the first page as you didn't update the pairings there like you did a couple posts up...

Also you didn't post my standing :wink:

[iamajellydonut]

I'm still really confused. Who's this Fry guy we keep talking about?

[jrsthethird]

I'm still really confused. Who's this Fry guy we keep talking about?

I think he dropped. I guess I get a win for round 1.

[Fry]

I'm still really confused. Who's this Fry guy we keep talking about?

Not entirely sure, must have been brought forward from the past with cryogenics... Or a rather bored and unoriginal name choice.

[Speedbump]

Speedbump 2-1 Bosque.

Game 1, the riskier line of play that I took ended up not working out, and I got crushed. Game 2, relevant hate cards won the game. Game 3, relevant hate cards (and lucksacking like a boss) closed the deal.

[davelin]

Trying to log into Cockatrice a little before my scheduled match. Anyone else having issues? Getting a -1 login error.

[Speedbump]

Trying to log into Cockatrice a little before my scheduled match. Anyone else having issues? Getting a -1 login error.I got that error a lot when using an older client. Switched to the latest client, and no longer have that problem.

If you're already using the latest client, then I have no idea.

[Dragonslayer_90]

Got it over Davelin 2-1. My reign of terror continues! Muahahahahahaha!

[Jeanval]

Bigwurdz got me 2-1 !

Nice games

[davelin]

Fry takes down PirateKing 2-1

Pretty wacky games...

Fry takes down PirateKing 2-1

Pretty wacky games...

First he flaunted his tasty dinner before establishing that false sense of security, then easily dispatched me. Got outplayed at every turn.

[Fry]

It was quite tasty, pulled BBQ chicken and mashed potatoes!

[btm10]

dsck schooled me, 2-1.

[dsck]

dsck 2-1 btm10

Some good, interactive games.

[kingsmooch]

Crush CRUSHED me with his 2-0 victory (dohoho). Good games :)

[TheArchitect]

Beat useless 2-0, I got pretty lucky though. The first game at least was a lot of fun and felt very close.

[UseLess]

TheArchitecht won 2-0. After a very tense g1, g2 I got mana screwed and it ended with a bit of an anti-climax.

[Quasim0ff]

VsTheWorld, please make room in your folder for new PM's =)

[Sloshthedark]

Holiday defeats Sloshthedark 2-1

Game 3 came down to the wire....

Match-up was quite fun, although the games looked more of a blow-out than they actually played.

[Bosque]

I got some good draws against Davelin and took it 2-0.

[btm10]

I'm scooping to Crush since I just don't have time right now. I'm also dropping. Sorry folks!

I won 2-1 from VsTheWorld after three nice and quite intense games.

[VsTheWorld]

UseLess got me 2-1. Good games, and after 3 rounds I just realized a horrible mistake when I submitted my list :/

[jrsthethird]

There was a mutiny and PirateKing had to walk the plank.

2-0

[Holo_rip]

A clean 2-0 for the Jelly !

[iamajellydonut]

10/10.

Welcome to the club.

[PirateKing]

My siren of a deck lured me in with some respectable hands, then drove my ships upon the cliffs of mana flood from which there could be no recovery.

[kingsmooch]

I got BeardTron 2-1, but he got mac n' cheese so who is the real winner here ;)

[BeardTron]

Smooch didn't smooch a damn thing....he bit and I'm left blue.

(1-2)

[davelin]

I got some good draws against Davelin and took it 2-0.

Round Four
You have five full days. Round ends October 28th @ 11:59pm EDT
Pairings for next round go up the following day.

We are actually done early this time.


Previously I had said there would be two extra days. Since we're done early, that's going to change a little bit. Down to one extra day. Hopefully this works and if anyone is actually inconvenienced by the change, message me and I'll see what I can do.


Also, Fry, don't drop the fukken ball on this one.

[Speedbump]

Speedbump brought me to a halt. 0-2Confirmed, a quick 2-0.

[iamajellydonut]

Game one against dsck was probably one of the most mechanically enjoyable games I've played in years. Game two was meh and a sad end to the series, but that was one hell of a game one, man.

[Maagler]

crush got me in 3 good games

[crush]

crush-maagler 2-1

Nice games indeed.

[dsck]

Game one against dsck was probably one of the most mechanically enjoyable games I've played in years. Game two was meh and a sad end to the series, but that was one hell of a game one, man.

Yeah didnt expect losing g1.

[VsTheWorld]

Bigwerdz crushed me 2-0. Close game 2 but he got there.

[bigwerdz]

bigwerdz 2-0 over VsTheWorld. Super enjoyable games!

[Holo_rip]

I wasn't able to be there to play the game, so it's fair to say that Davelin take it instead of me.

[Holiday]

Got wrecked by KingSmooch 0-2

I'll be battling someone for last place.

[kingsmooch]

Can confirm for win, good games

[davelin]

I wasn't able to be there to play the game, so it's fair to say that Davelin take it instead of me.

True but if you want to try to fit one in, let me know.

[UseLess]

Jeanval was too good for me. An epic game 2 concluded in me losing 0-2. Good luck getting top 8!

[Jeanval]

I confirm, G2 was a real nail biter !
Jeanval 2 Useless 0

Hope to play with you again soon!

[jrsthethird]

When's the next round? I'm thirsty!

[iamajellydonut]

I HUNGER

Be still, my dog of war.

The round should have officially ended today, but I suck at counting (5=6???) and already announced the 28th, so the 28th it is. I'll try to get pairings up a bit sooner to compensate.

[Fry]

Also, Fry, don't drop the fukken ball on this one.


Sorry Jelly, I dropped it... Double mull game 1 and 3, crushed him in game 2 though..

Dragonslayer_90: 2
Fry: 1

[Dragonslayer_90]

I got it 2-1 over Fry. He mulliganed in games one and three so he dropped the ball unfortunately for you iamajellydonut. You jelly of my current undefeated record??? :cool:

[iamajellydonut]

You jelly of my current undefeated record??? :cool:

There's still one more shot...

@iamajellydonut: Please clean up your inbox :)

Anyway, I suggest we play either Saturday at 2pm CET (i.e. 9am EDT) or Sunday/Monday evening around 10pm CET (i.e. 5pm EDT).

Let me know what time suits you best.

You got this, man. 2-0!

[kingsmooch]

PirateKing steals the crown with his 2-1 win ggggg2u

[PirateKing]

Defeated KingSmooch 2-1

They mulled to 5 on game 3 though, so that was rough

[VsTheWorld]

Maags, clean out your inbox yo.

[iamajellydonut]

Don't expect anything but disappointment on that one.

Failure to achieve victory will be interpreted as collusion and will result in your immediate excommunication.

[jrsthethird]

Failure to achieve victory will be interpreted as collusion and will result in your immediate excommunication.

Excommunicate.

Go directly to the top of the library, do not pass Go, do not collect $200.

[Speedbump]

Failure to achieve victory will be interpreted as collusion and will result in your immediate excommunication.As much as I'd like to slay the dragon, I think I'm more Speedbump than Saint George.

[davelin]

Got fortunate and beat Useless 2-0

[UseLess]

Confirmed. Not just fortunate though as I couldn't force him into any mistakes. Good luck if you reach top 8!

The tournament was great fun even though my deck didn't really do what I wanted it to do. Looking forward to a possible third itteration of Jelly slamming!

[VsTheWorld]

Maags, clean out your inbox yo.

Inbox still full.

[bigwerdz]

Fry got me 2-0. Good luck in top 8.

Confirming, and yes I loved g2 :)

[Fry]

Dragonslayer_90... I'm coming in for a rematch in the top 8!

[crush]

Lost to Jelly in 3.. interesting games :D I had game 3, but lost it to a couple of misplays.

[Dragonslayer_90]

I punted in Game One and flooded in Game Three so speedbump got it for you Jelly, 2-1.

[Speedbump]

It's been done.

Speedbump 2-1 Dragonslayer90

EDIT: I think both of us punted somewhat throughout the match, although I flooded out less in the three games, so I wasn't punished for it as heavily.

[Maagler]

Maagler 2-1 Vstheworld

Good games!

[VsTheWorld]

Maag got it 2-1. Good games. Solidly off of this deck for the GP.

[jrsthethird]

It's been done.

Speedbump 2-1 Dragonslayer90

EDIT: I think both of us punted somewhat throughout the match, although I flooded out less in the three games, so I wasn't punished for it as heavily.

Speedbump 2-1 Dragonslayer90

Thank God it only took eleven rounds.

[TheArchitect]

losing Sundering Titan t4 off cavern because I thought its 1-of.. But you have 3 after board! Daretti :cool:

BRUTAL

Sundering Titan being one of my favorite cards, I find this thoroughly amusing.

BRUTAL

Sundering Titan being one of my favorite cards, I find this thoroughly amusing.

This:
Game 2 I mull to 6 on the play and end up being annoying with a Defense Grid lead so I could resolve the Chalice on 1 for turn 2. He Cliques me and lets me keep my hand of Metalworker, Sundering Titan, Staff of Domination, and City of Traitors. He lets me keep all of them when I have that Chalice on 1, Mountain, Furnace, and Citadel in play and he has an EE set on 0, so I take the risk and play the Metalworker and it resolves. Next turn he still doesn't blow up the EE, so no StP, and no 4th land. My next turn I play staff, play Titan and he scoops.

[jrsthethird]

I'm assuming my opponent dropped and I didn't know? Kinda bummed to skate in the Top 8 on a "bye". I threw my pile together the night before the event started; I guarantee I'm playing more BFZ cards than anyone else here. ;)

Yeah, blub had failed to show the prior round, and you had posted with attempts at communication for this round, so when it came time today to make a choice between win/lose/draw, you made the cut. I hate to be the arbiter, but it's not like I can punish you for other people's faults. However, while I wholeheartedly agree that you shouldn't be in the top eight at all, I would like to clarify that it's not because of "skating in on a bye".


1 Shambling Vent

You make me sick.

[iamajellydonut]

Also, announcement!

Read the post dammit.

So, prizes can be found below. And, before you say what you're thinking ("hmm... these lack a certain cohesion and seem really last minute"), they are kinda just shoved together. However, it's not without good reason. Yes, I'm a lazy sack of shit who has a certain affection for procrastinating, but there's more to it than that.

Pre-planning had me setting some dosh aside in an effort to keep a growing pool of prizes. For example, have six potential prizes this "season". The four winners take their picks. Rest go into the vault to be added onto the five new prizes for next season and now there's seven choices! Cool, right? And then eventually it becomes pretty clear that no one wants the playset of Portuguese foil One with Nothings, so we hold a tournament that pays out to as many people as we have prizes and start fresh for the next one. Pretty fukken solid, right? Problem with that is... how regular did I really expect these to become?

This month and next month are the "holiday season". No way in hell I was going to work around that, which means things are pushed to early January which means two months of nothing. Two months of crap sitting in a shoebox and two months for me to change how I feel about this and two months to maybe even find new employment (the current being where I get to post from most). So, I procrastinated as I always do. With sound intentions though, and it's something of a good thing that I did procrastinate, because I did change my mind. About a few things. One is that I no longer see this as an eternal thing. Just not gonna play out that way. Good intentions don't get you everything. Tradition's out the door. Neato tricks out the door. The other is that I'm kinda... done with the game? I don't mean that in too sincere of a sense. I popped open my binder after the "news" yesterday and after a few silly beauties stared me in the face, I realized there's no way I'm actually quitting. But I am stepping back, and my interest is definitely waning.

So, that being said, I kinda axed the theme that I did start going for and just kinda went ham on cool shit. Many of the things on the list are pre-owned staples that are going to be needing a good home while others I kinda just snap went "I want that" or "that'll make a decent pick" after rifling though listings and binders (like the sick set of altered Deathrites). You'll also notice that the list is completely devoid of foils, and that's intentional. Because if no one picks the obscure EDH foil, there's no fukken way in hell I'd want the thing and flipping it would be more painful than peeling off my fingernails. So, yes, it's disorganized and it may seem kinda lazy, but it's all from the heart, and if you really don't want a Trop (that was only so recently acquired #sad), then I'll be more than happy to hold onto it.

Maybe I'll do this again sometime in the distant (or not too distant) future, but it probably won't be as silly, it definitely won't be continuous, and I might even look to gain something from it.

But fuck all that shit above! Because top eight awaits! There may be a playmat added later if a commission happens and if I don't just want to outright keep both of them, and the list might grow a teeny bit in general as I potentially de-"invest" (honestly anyone who knows me knows there wasn't much to start with and it's been slowly trickling away for a while now), but here's what we got to work with for now. Relevant pics will be added in a bit.


Top Four Pick:
Tropical Island (MP)
Liliana of the Veil

3*Cryptic Command (lor)
4*Deathrite Shaman ("full art" altered)

I don't understand what this means. Been out of the tournament scene for a while.

[iamajellydonut]

I don't understand what this means. Been out of the tournament scene for a while.

If you ever reach the top eight of a GP or an SCG, the way the play/draw will work is that the higher seeded player from the Swiss rounds will automatically get the choice to play or draw. For example, in the case of bigwerdz vs Fry, Fry would go first as he finished higher in the Swiss rounds. This is done to encourage players to play till the bitter end during the Swiss rounds as opposed to engaging in intentional draws. Ordinarily it's only seen at the higher levels of play, but some smaller events also copy-cat the procedure, and I just wanted to clarify that it wouldn't be the case here.

tl;dr
Roll a dice like always.

Only reason I played it out was because I thought seeding would be relevant.

Basically what he said.

Also, the entire point if this was and is to play games. In fact, it was switched to Swiss from bracket upon the request of many in order to allow them to continue to play even after they were out of contention. In hindsight, it probably wouldn't have mattered if I had made an exception for your case, but the intention was that the games should be played, so I paired you.


p.s. TheArchitect managed to get me in three games even after I won the roll. Game 1 I flooded but stabilized thanks to Punishing Fire even through an Entreat the Angels, but then he abused three fukken Tops in conjunction with Monastery Mentor and crammed my shit in. Game 2 was a lot less close with lots of Wastelands and a Wear//Tear hitting his Rest in Peace and targeting his Top followed by an immediate Chalice to lock him out. Game 3 was very close, but we went through a long string of one-for-ones where I didn't have the mana to double up on threats while he filtered perfectly for answers. Eventually jammed the meanest Counterbalance with a Vendillion on top. Eventually I get more mana and I decide to test the waters with a pair of 2cc spells since he has an empty hand, no fetches, and at least one Vendillion Clique stuck on top of his library. He spins and wiffs with the top three. Uses one of his two Tops to draw a Brainstorm. Casts Brainstorm. Draws three. Puts back two. Spins remaining Top. Sees one new card... and it's a Wear//Tear. Never come back.

Game 1 was close and fun, I made a lot of mistakes and almost lost even with an entreat for x=4. Game 2 I didnt get to do anything. Game 3, I had excellent filtering and my opening hand was solid. It was like 2 STP, Brainstorm, 3 land, top, and then I quickly drew 2 counterspells.

Fun games, I am not looking forward to playing against all of the mono-red decks!

[Speedbump]

dsck and myself are still trying to find a suitable time to play. Main problem might be the fact that his evening is when I'm usually asleep, with the whole being on the other side of the world thing.

Hopefully done either Wednesday/Thursday morning AEDT, which is 24-48 hours from this post.

[Speedbump]

dsck 2-1 Speedbump.

Both of us played reasonably well, although I think I missed a few tighter lines of play that could have been taken. My deck shat on me hard throughout, which wasn't fun.

Cheers once again for running this, iamajellydonut. If there's another one of these, looking forward to it.

[dsck]

dsck 2-1 speedbump

G1 I think we both mulled, I had t1 top, t2 counterbalance while speedbump had senseis top as well but was stuck on 1 land for 2 or 3 turns while I laid lands and entreated for the win fairly safely.

G2 Mulled hand with countebalance, volcanic island, island, clique, entreat, council's judgment, disenchant to better hand but without counterbalance. I couldnt find counterbalance fast enough, got on too low life total and eidolon finished me.

G3 I believe speedbump mulled here again. I managed to deal with early goblin guide and got the cb lock down soon after.

[bigwerdz]

bigwerdz 2-0 over fry. I drew pretty nuts against his mulligans. Great games and glad we got to play again.

[Fry]

Lost horribly. 0-2

Game 1 on the play, mull to 6 with 2 Daretti in hand, scry 1 away, draw the 4th one a turn or two later, first turn Chalice on 1 only slowed him down.
Game 2 I have no hate and the only shot I have is if my Hellkite lives... Yeah that didn't happen...

Nice to chat briefly and go through the motions of a couple games. ^_^

TheArchitect got me 2-0. Good games and good luck in the finals!.

[TheArchitect]

I won 2-0 over Bigwerdz, he had meh hands and I could not have asked for much better opening 7s. I had early counterbalance+top both games.

[jrsthethird]

dsck hit Entreat all 3 games. I handled them game 1 and bashed with Vent/SOFI for the win, but couldn't beat the Angel army in games 2 or 3.

Mana problems were recurring throughout the whole tournament, I need to add at least another land next time. Stirring Wildwood?!

[dsck]

dsck 2-1 jrsthethird

G1 I mull to 6, keep 1 lander and bottom top card and miss land drop 2 turns while jrs has active bob. I somewhat catchup with entreat but then equipped b/w manland finishes me with SoFI on it.

G2 I keep 5 lands pierce + stp. I have option of piercing t1 therapy but decline because im greedy and he names stp. I clean the board with terminus and land keranos which takes over the game.

G3 Jrs has t1 therapy naming top but otherwise slow start with his next play being turn 3 Drana. I brainstorm into terminus + entreat and and those angels go all the way.

[jrsthethird]

dsck 2-1 jrsthethird

G1 I mull to 6, keep 1 lander and bottom top card and miss land drop 2 turns while jrs has active bob. I somewhat catchup with entreat but then equipped b/w manland finishes me with SoFI on it.

G2 I keep 5 lands pierce + stp. I have option of piercing t1 therapy but decline because im greedy and he names stp. I clean the board with terminus and land keranos which takes over the game.

G3 Jrs has t1 therapy naming top but otherwise slow start with his next play being turn 3 Drana. I brainstorm into terminus + entreat and and those angels go all the way.

G2 and G3 my tempo was really off. I kinda wished you had Pierced my Therapy, because then my Bitterblossom would have landed turn 3. I jammed it because I wanted to remove the Pierce and had nothing else to do since I missed a land drop. If I do nothing you Pierce Souls or Truths or a Sword when I hit my third land and set me back another turn. Looking back I guess I could have sacced Bob to flashback Therapy so that BB would land. That might have changed things a bit and was probably the right play.

Anyway, 4th place is pretty good for a weird pile I threw together the night before. GGs everyone.

[dsck]

Finals

dsck 2-0 TheArchitect

G1 We durdle around first turns with cantrips and I try to go for turn 3 counterbalance with pierce back-up which gets FOW'd. Then he plays turn 4 counterbalance to which I have engineered explosives that I risk casting @ 2 and he misses with blind reveal. His EOT I blow it up, topdeck top and then proceed to find counterbalance and all my force of wills.

G2 I board out 4 terminus, 1 entreat (I left 1 in the deck), 2 stp, 2 plains. In: 2 pyro, 1 reb, 2 fluster, 2 clique, 1 venser, 1 counterspell

I think this game came down to him not finding top/counterbalance, being on the play and having to use force of will leaving him behind in resources. I also drew well and found my tops and counterbalances.


All my opponents were friendly and played well. Thank you jelly for organizing this tournament!

my matchups were:
Miracles (thearchitect) 2-0
Deadguy ale/rock (jrsthethird) 2-1
Burn (speedbump) 2-1
Aggro Loam (jelly) 0-2
Daretti MUD (fry) 1-2
Imperial Taxes (bosque) 2-1
BUG Delver (btm10) with True-name nemesises 2-1?
4c Delver (crush) 2-0

[TheArchitect]

Confirmed, dsck beat me 2-0 in the finals.

Game 1 I cast 3 brainstorms with fetches and put back 3 terminus, 2 Swords and a plains, and was not able to stick a top or CB.

Out: -4 Swords, -3 terminus, -1 Entreat, -2 Plains
In: +3 Blasts, +2 Wear/Tear, +2 Fluster, +3 Clique

Game 2 I had an ok hand of Wizards, lands, cantrips and jace, but did find any disruption besides FoW and did not find any top or CB till it was way too late.

He played very well and they were enjoyable games. The whole tournament has been fun, thank you for organizing it Jelly!
