Actually I was just playing him on MWS just yesterday and he busts out the NLD on me it was quite a devestating experience.
I'll be taking one of the survival T8's thanks for thinking of me guys.

Please, Shane - It's NLDW. Nourishing Lich Deck Wins.
Also, I was looking for a playset of Nourishing Shoals and Nefarious Liches in an asian language - Ebay doesn't have any.

Is there wireless at Play the Game? I kind of want to do a running report, with some pictures and everything. This should be pretty epic.

Oh, sure, I do it and now everyone wants to :rolleyes:.
In all seriousness though, this would be incredibly awesome and I heartily endorse the idea.

Breaking News Update:
Brendan "I call Zach embarrassingly early after he's spent the entire last night contemplating proposing to Amanda Tapping via snail mail" O'Dowd will be arriving at what could generously be called my apartment shortly. I don't know if anyone else cares about this, but he freaking woke me up like.... four hours before I'd have liked. Anyway, trash talk in list form:
- Virginia:
- My spurned offer of room and negligible board will (hopefully) load me up for some savage, karma-fueled beats. Like, the kind of "first round at the last Hadley" style beats.
- Ohio:
- I could care less if this is where emdiliion is coming from - I'm honestly way more concerned about Media314r8 and his crew. They were pretty cool when last we met, but I haven't heard from any of them. So... I'ma beat all your asses, but it'd be a pleasure to see you (that I might beat your ass)
- Massachutsuettes players (yeah, I'ma disrespect you and make an issue of my terrible spelling in one move. Top that, suckas):
- I really don't have anything against you. I guess I could go with the obligatory "your favorite deck sucks" comment (useless trivia: I was recently thinking of cool stuff that could be stenciled on a playmat, and came up with "The EPIC Syndicate" and then in smaller letters below it, "P.S. - we've got decks like Jesus"), but I'm impressed that your teenage selves were able to make it out here (be ready for us to drop all of the terrible jokes we were until recently able to dump upon Bryant all over your asses). Pre-Slops go to the rest of Slaygo or whatever they're calling their team - I drive out for you suckers.
- EPIC:
- I'd consider a top four split when Bryant, Myself, Trevor, and.... Nat? Is Jim coming? How about a top 8 with Adam, Abold, me, Bryant, Jim, Nat, Trevor, and Colin. That'd be nice.
Top 8 Predictions:
3 Nourishing Lich
2 Not-Quite-Dreadstill
1 Geoff-Smelski's-Mom-Deck-Wins
2 Actually properly registered deck names
Dave Price in ninth.

Welcome to the real world. He got up when I woke up. It's not his fault you don't have a job.
I'm excited for this thing, but much moreso for the birthday outing afterward. Does anyone have an idea of what we can do with the underage kids while the big kids are out?

Re: 07/19/08 $1000 cash prize Legacy Play the Game
I can't go to this tourney for the following reason:
Me (in May): Can I borrow the car the weekend of July the 19th to drive 3 & a half hours South to go to Syracuse.
My dad (in May): Sure shouldn't be a problem.
...
Parents (late June): We are going on vacation and taking taking the car on the weekend of July the 19th.
Me: But you said over a month ago I could have the car that weekend.
Parents: We'll let you have it for the next big tournament.
Me: :mad: :rolleyes:

1 Ichorid
1 Imperial Painter
1 T.E.S.
1 RGBSA
1 GWBr Survival
1 Goblins

Tell you what, Tom (I don't want to condescend here, but I'm not honestly 100% positive that your name is Tom. But I'm pretty sure - this isn't supposed to be one of those, "Tom, is it? Tom..." talks): If your boy top 8's I'll buy you dinner (at a fast food place, not like Uno) at the mall.
Additionally, I hope that you realize that, in predicting that Imperial Painter will top 8 you are saying that Mike "Hollywood" "A_Legend" Kellar will top 8. Which is cool, and all. Except that he isn't an EPIC member, and I done said we're taking all 8 spots.

There shouldn't be an "e" at the end of "line" in "line-ers"; it's one whole word. We get it, you can't spell properly. Now finish 7th grade before returning to this thread.

Re: 07/19/08 $1000 cash prize Legacy Play the Game
My Top 8 Predictions:
1 Vial Goblins
2 Threshold Variants
1 Painter's Combo
1 TES
1 The Rock Variant
1 Survival
1 Landstill
I would love to see Fetchland Tendrils actually do something, but I would be disappointed if I actually expected that. Since TES is the best combo deck, I would have to put that as my favorite when it comes for a combo deck making the top 8. I still prefer my version of Iggy Pop, but no one will play that deck.
I think its kinda funny how a lot of people are not expecting Goblins to do well anymore. I still think its one of the best if not the best deck in Legacy.
I expect to do crappy myself, predicting the 1-3 drop. :)
See you guys at the event.

I thought we decided that your version of IGGy Pop was fetchland tendrils....
And Goblins lost it's #1 slot when they printed Goyf, if not before. Now there is no way that it is the best.

Which is why you'll be going to time in the round. Every round. You're officially the slowest magic player alive. 30 seconds per top activation adds up.

If top takes 30 seconds I can't imagine a doomsday stack... :eek:
Edit: Oh wait that card blows so no one would really play it right? The whole doomsday FT deck is a joke right? right? guys? ...:cry:

For srsly guys. Disregard anything you've ever heard about a Doomsday deck. :wink: In fact, I'd highly recommend forgetting everything related to playing against a pseudo-thresh combo deck. They don't exist. This has all been an illusion provided by your friendly neighborhood security agency.

I didn't say anything about Fetchland Tendrils, What I said was, "Which is why you'll be going to time in the round. Every round. You're officially the slowest magic player alive. 30 seconds per top activation adds up." Meaning, that you're playing top because of Tarmogoyf.
Bob - Old Balls. That is all.

Re: 07/19/08 $1000 cash prize Legacy Play the Game
Actually, the only decks that I have played in the past 2 years that don't have top in them are Burn and Survival. I put top in Wombat when I played it for a couple of weeks, and I also have it in any kind of black based board control deck that I play, except for landstill. So yeah, Tarmogoyf doesn't even have any bearing on whether or not I play top. And for the record, when we played it was my first and second times playing the deck. And against Big Brian, it was my first time playing against Ichorid, and he was also taking his time. I did not go to time in the round at all this past tournament, except against Di, and I think he would agree that was not because of me playing slowly, just that it was a very long game 1.

I'm not sure why Pre-Registration was ended, but when I called to Pre-register myself and four others today I was told I couldn't. That $25 in savings would have put a sizeable dent in the $80 projected gas costs it's going to take for us to get there from Connecticut. I guess we can bring bagged lunches instead of eating out :cry:
