Unfortunately as of right now I am out of really cool legacy stuff that would be warrant a first prize. Library is cool, but the option is always there to take the credit and pick up lots of useful legacy stuff.

Just put 4x Survival of the Fittest as the first prize... judging by how hard those things are to trade for everyone and his aunt is in need of a playset.

I think that more Legacy tournaments should have Type 1 staples as prizes. We all want to play Type 1 at some point, and what's better than actually winning the cards. I have absolutely no problem with Type 1 prizes.

We all want to play Type 1 at some point

This is a very broad, and, I think, largely untrue statement. Most Legacy players I know/hang out with have 0 desire to play Vintage.

I personally wouldn't mind. I'm not sure about everyone else but I assume there are people like myself that feel the same way.

Was the Hadley Vintage tourny as good as the Legacy has been? I asked here cause I wanted to bump the thread off page 2.

24 people, gave away the listed prizes at that level - aka all the cash back ($480 in prizes).

Considering it was a) sunday b) ELD's vintage the day before, I was decently happy with the turnout.

Looking to have the May one on a Saturday, hit 30+ and give out even more prizes.

Gotta get some of you legacy people to play my vintage - what's it gonna take?

P.s. this tourny should be awesome, love Kevin's events.

Lots of hot Type I prizes, or Legacy foils. Cash is appealing but sometimes acquiring cards that are hard to find makes it worth the trip.

Had the first two (Moxen, drains, duals, etc.). People choose to split and take the cash.

Unlike legacy, most vintage players split/take the cash (big variance between 1st/2nd prizes unlike at legacy tournies).

Last couple legacy events cash was taken over prizes

I meant more the variance/difference between first second then the cash choices.

in other news, also make sure to show up the following week for our 2nd vintage event at Off the Wall.

(Blatance Hijack) For those interested I pushed back the Vintage tourny a week to June 7th.

You guys should def come if you're planning on going to Hatch's workshop tourny, will be a great warmup/chance to test.

As for Legacy, lets go comboooo

Since my girlfriend is going to be out of town I may just drive myself to this event.

Was just curiuos, do you have a date picked for this? June is looking so empty for legacy around this area at this point that i'm probably gonna plan a weekend or two away from magic, and would hate for them to turn out to be the one that has your aniversary tourny.

Bryant really just wants to Join in the circle jerk. I think he is probably rubbing one out just thinking about all those teenie weenies beating off.

You guys should create "Team Dreadstill" and circle jerk onto a dreadnaught as a sign of how good the deck is.

Please don't give them any ideas.

I'd quit the team..


Well Bryant, If you don't get a shusher to stick around I don't think you'll beat any dreadstill decks :rolleyes: [Yes, that's a challenge] (I <3 Pretournament trashtalk )

Is there an actual team out in Mass? I always thought it was a bunch of scrubs that wished they were good at the game.

Thats probably why you play terrible decks like Dreadstill or what the fuck its called.

It doesn't take a team to beat another player. FYI, There are 3 teams in MA, all that top 8 in tournies. I do not know what spot you plan on getting, as far as I know top 8 is booked and I did not see your name on the reservation list.

There is still one spot open it the Top 8, I mean with 7 of us coming from Syracuse and all. Its really nice that you accept the fact that we are coming. Tell ya what you can have the final spot if you want...
