Re: GRAND PRIX: CHICAGO!!! - Live Coverage
Andy just won the first game of his top 8 match.
Re: GRAND PRIX: CHICAGO!!! - Live Coverage
Brassy vs TK will be an epic match.
I'm not thrilled with Cappy's chances preboard, but Submerge and Red Blasts might be enough to give him games 2 and 3.
Re: GRAND PRIX: CHICAGO!!! - Live Coverage
Actually, Nassif manabase is extremely fragile. If David can keep him off from his colored mana source via Stifle and Wasteland, he might just buy enough time to win the game.
But the lack of Artifact removal will hurt his gameplay :S A resolved CB/top is almost GG for tempo Threshold
Disrupt is a weird choice

Well, Tommy is playing ANT and Andy is playing Counter-Top...one of these players doesn't stand a chance.
EDIT: Wait, he's playing TES! Well, he's not so screwed now.

Also, screw you Luis. I wanted you to make top 8. :mad:
EDIT: Big WTF goes out to Nassif's sideboard. Is that even correct, and if so, what was he thinking?
All of these decks look boring to play. Playing a deck with Counter-Top in it is like having teeth pulled, but at least it's better than playing against combo.
Yep, only one made day 2 and I was feeling high and mighty, then it made t8. Rough beats. At least I can dream that everyone else playing it scrubbed.
On the flip side, at PR pointed out, GOYF SLIGH MOTHERFUCKERS. Not relevant, my ass. You don't see MERFOLK in the t8 do you? :lol:
Also two Sui variants, soooo ridic.

Disrupt is absurdly good. Cantrippable countermagic is underrated.
Re: GRAND PRIX: CHICAGO!!! - Live Coverage
Its not really TES, its some kind of ANT/TES Hybrid, very impressive list but no Blasts in the board .... I don't know, I don't like his chances, however, Shusher will be hot, especially in a combo deck running 14 lands!

It's fucking storm combo, you guys should stop arguing over nitpicky crap that doesn't matter. He probably just modded his Vintage combo lists until he felt comfortable with it.
Re: GRAND PRIX: CHICAGO!!! - Live Coverage
Kolowith's list is actually a sort of hybrid - TES but with fetches and duals rather than Cities, and packing MD Mystical as well as a 4/1 Duress/Chant split.
And P_R, sorry to disappoint, but Six's list runs 12 pure beaters and therefore fully qualifies as Zoo. Not that anyone who doesn't compile DTBF data should care.
I'm rather relieved at seeing the Top 8 lists - I was afraid there would be like six Counter-Top decks. Glad to see that decks such as Stompy and Storm pulled it off even as they completely dodged the feature match area.
EDIT: Wow, fast thread.
Re: GRAND PRIX: CHICAGO!!! - Live Coverage
Natural order and cb+sdt suck I think...
Oky wiz not ban these cards :P
Re: GRAND PRIX: CHICAGO!!! - Live Coverage
Will there be decklists of the Top132, too?
Re: GRAND PRIX: CHICAGO!!! - Live Coverage
102 people viewing this thread. WOW.
Anyone have updates?

I'm pretty sure it was in the top 16. What's-his-name was playing it, the one guy with the four Spellstutter as his only Faerie.
Re: GRAND PRIX: CHICAGO!!! - Live Coverage
perhaps my brain is not functionning well. But can type an example of how disrupt can be amazing? I see it is like a daze, but you said it, it can cantrip away
How do you think David will side against Nassif?
He has 4 blast, possibly 1 grip. 1 EE?
4 Submerge??
And while we are at it why not bring in the 4 disrupt? lol
Will he sideout Daze? (4 daze --> 4 blast?)
Bolt/Fireice ?? But they are really good. Maybe the bolt, since the fire/ice is stronger.
Re: GRAND PRIX: CHICAGO!!! - Live Coverage
I'm actually waiting for the player profiles. There must be a cool story behind Nassif's Highlander sideboard.
