Sweet, thanks for the quick response and will the top8 be playing our for position?
IE if you lose in top4, you play the other loser for 3rd/4th?
And if you lose in top8, play for 5-8?
...
Hey, so I am interested in bringing a car down from rochester and have a couple of questions.
1. Are you using standard tournament structure. Modified swiss with a cut to top8?
2. Who is...
If you play a combo deck, you are spot on.
Hightide and tendrils are favored against it 80-20
Show and tell hivemind and painter grind are about 70-30
Bloodbraid elves are a dog to combo...
I am aware of that. I just figured I'd put an hour in here or there. Not everyone is in highschool and lives for magic. Its sloppy, lacks detail, etc. But, if i didn't post it I would never write it...
Though, on another note. Taking 20 in one turn was not what I expected. Nice play. Especially if you sculpted that by sinking other stuff.
Alternate title: How bloodbraid elves put me on the pro tour.
Thank you Doug McKay for being the best deck builder in legacy. 8/10 players who played your decks day 2ed. You have put half a dozen...
@bigbear.
My name is Will. There aren't many 6'4 gingers that play magic. Its hard to mess that up.
I was not playing zoo. I was playing bloodbraid elves.
It was not BRUG it was RUG.

I am having moderate success on modo right now with ANT.
3 Chrome Mox
2 Underground Sea
1 Tundra
4 Cabal Ritual
4 Brainstorm
4 Dark Ritual
2 Misty Rainforest
4 Lotus Petal
Could you post a link to your report? I'll see if I can get it translated.
I would almost prefer a FBB sea to a lotus at this point. .
Rochester has 12 or 13 coming at this point.
Its a shame Bryant is too scared to come out and play.
Congrats to the 5k and GP competitors that did well.
Also, the prize pool now has > 20 judge foils to select from.
December/January Schedule will be posted when I get my job in order.
I Don’t Play Magic Anymore: A report from a Tournament Organizer at RIT
Hello all,
This is a report about not playing magic. A TO is a Tournament Organizer. We put together the space, prizes,...
The best questions I have received plus answers:
1) I know where RIT is, and saw the google-maps link for what building the tournament is in, but where is the best (read: free) place to park...
Hey all, I think the first mid-size event at RIT went off pretty well. We had a few hiccups: a repair and a 10 minute delay after round 3. Those blatant mistakes have been noted and should not be a...
Decklists:
James R (his beard is nicer than his last name)
New Horizons
4 goyf
4 ponder
4 brainstorm
4 knight of the reliquary
3 terravore
2 engineered explosives
I will post Decklists tomorrow.
It was a good turn out.
Also, we got a donation from the school to add to prizes, which paid for 13-16th place's free entry into the next Tournament at...
I've been called out for being too afraid to put the bounty on the source.
So here it is:
Top8 with MUC + $50 cash prize to the person who pilots it.
Its strong. Especially if they guarantee a tiered break down like +200 cred for every 10 additional entrants.
It can be tough to gauge the interest level for tournaments.
September Schedule:
September 4th: Arranging rides to Jupiter games to go win more duals for the prize case. Text/PM to find rides, should be 2-4 cars going from Rochester.
September 11th:...
Bump!
Tomorrow is the last regular RIT Tournament before the 11th.
Come test and get a feel for the meta-game $10 Reg @ 11 first round @ Noon.
Rochester has not missed a top8 yet this year at any qualifier. This will not change.
