Predict the top 8 of Grand Prix Las Vegas and win

[Lava Snacks]

a haiku that I'll write about you.

That's right. If you come the closest to predicting the top 8 of GP Vegas, I will write a haiku about you with my own blood, sweat, and tears. There is no fine print.

My prediction: Elves, Grixis Delver, Death & Taxes, R/G Lands, ANT, BUG Delver, Grixis Control, Miracles

[Crimhead]

Burn
Deathblade
Eldrazi
Elves
Infect
Miracles
Prowess
Storm

(in alphabetical order).

I wasn't going to partake, but I can't pass on a chance to be immortalised.

[Mad Mat]

Elves
Sneaky Show
Storm
UR Delver
BUG delver
Eldrazi
Bant Deathblade
Bant Deathblade

[Whitefaces]

Why not

2 Grixis Delver
1 Moon Stompy
1 Food Chain
1 Bant Deathblade
1 4c Control
1 Miracles
1 Sneak and Show

[Dice_Box]

8x Lands. No bias whatsoever.

[Fallen_Empire]

Elves
Lands
UR Delver
Mono Red Sneak Attack
4c Controll
Elves
BUG Delver
Reanimator

[Douif]

2 grixis delver
1 Show and Tell
1 Bant deathblade
1 ANT
1 Elves
1 4c control
1 Bug delver

[Crimhead]

This is fun!

#1 deck picked so far - Lands. :tongue:

[RThomas-]

In order for bonus points:

Grixis Delver
Grixis Delver
Storm
Eldrazi Stompy
Bant Aggro
Grixis Delver
Miracles
Sneak and Show

Reanimate and Elves miss on tiebreakers. No Dredge or 8Moon.dec in the top 32 :frown:

[ironclad8690]

1 Grixis Delver (therapy)
1 Death and Taxes
1 Miracles
1 BR Reanimator
1 Sneak and Show
1 Grixis Control
1 Red Stompy
1 ANT

Bonus Points: exactly 1 Food Chain in top 32. Another Miracles will miss top 8 on breakers, as will a Dark Bant player and a Lands player. The D&T player will be either Wescoe or Enevoldsen. BUG delver will be one of the worst performing day 2 decks, but a high number will make it to day 2. Some RUG Thresh player will top 32, but they will spell their name incorrectly. A nic fit player will get 33rd.

1 Elves

It actually stands for Merieke Opposition Survival Tradewind if I'm not mistaken.

[Dice_Box]

How? Lands doesn't play Brainstorm.

[CptHaddock]

How? Lands doesn't play Brainstorm.

He left out 4 spots for landcestral recall.

[Von]

I predict 1 gobbos. There's enough Grixis and Miracles that I think it will do ok.

[Svyelunite]

Not in order:
3x Grixis Delver
1x Reanimator (Probably U/B)
1x Infect
2x Sneak and Show
1x R/G Lands

[Dice_Box]

He left out 4 spots for landcestral recall.
My prediction is 8 Lands decks though. No space for Brainstorm.

[Minniehajj]

I'll take the name of this thread literally:
2 Miracles
1 Lands (we all know it's going to be Jarvis)
1 Storm
1 Grixis Delver
1 BUG Delver
1 Grixis Control
1 Sneak and Show

[MorphBerlin]

2 Grixis Delver
1 Bant Stoneblade
2 Sneak and Show
1 Lands
1 BR Reanimator
1 4C Control

[KevinTrudeau]

8 copies of Portent.

[T-101]

3x Storm
2x Elves
1x Grixis Delver
1x Bant Leovold
1x Lands

[Lava Snacks]

Added 'em together and the community expects a top 8 of:

2X Grixis Delver
1X Storm
1X Elves
1X Sneak & Show
1X Lands
1X Miracles
1X Bant Deathblade

Too bad Vegas doesn't have betting on it.

If the consensus wins, I'll write a haiku about The Source too :cool:

[Barook]

My prediction:

2X Grixis Delver
1X Storm
1X Elves
1X Sneak & Show
1X Lands
2X Miracles

1 4Color Control
1 Bant Deathblade
1 Aggro Loam

[Fox]

It is Vegas we're talking about...they might actually have betting on it :laugh:

I'll guess:
-Grixis Delver
-Counterburn (UR Delver)
-Food Chain
-DnT
-TES
-Omnitell
-Deathblade
-Grixis Thieves, winner of GPs.
