Seems like you did the right thing. I mean, you were assaulted and you are still showing how amazing people can be by trying to return the deck to the dude. Props to you Magic Fanatic.

Half of the tough-talkers are mainly in their tweens and think their shit don't stink; which also inflames egos. Which in turn, can lead to decks with wings.
Dude may have been a complete douche but how do we know that his dog didn't just die or his girlfriend left. I believe everyone is entitled to an off day here and there. That is why i would give his deck back.
Only thing you can do is leave your name/address at the store, and perhaps something on Craig's List and tell a few other people to spread the word. Other than that, after a month or two screw him.Quote:

The guy was in pain and puked, after that we didn't have much trouble out of the man.Quote:

Are there known cases of people pulling out weapons during tournaments?
Your being nice and all but your wrong about this, even if his girlfriend died he had no reason to take his frustration out on you. Sounds to me like another player who shouldn't be playing the game, so think of it as doing him a favor if he can't play because he doesn't have a deck anymore he won't have such high stress levels. Your helping him live longer.Quote:

No offense but I'm far from an internet tough guy I'm the same guy in person and anybody who knows me in real life and the source will tell you I don't just talk shit if I say it on here I'll tell you to your face. If a somebody throws a deck at me we're fighting. True story.Quote:
