    Looking for some players in the Portland, Oregon area!

    Hey, I'm looking for some people to play Legacy with! Every time I go into the local shops (Guardian Games, Other Worlds, Ancient Wonders) there's nobody to play serious Legacy with. Now that CCG House (Vancouver, Washington) is having weekly Legacy tournaments I'd like to find some people to play with during the week also. Hopefully I can find some people who like to stay up-to-date with the current metagame and have the time & money to playtest and try new decks!

    I'm located in SW Portland, Other Worlds in Hillsdale is the closest shop to me, though Guardian Games is usually a better place to hang out and play. So, anybody in the area who can't wait until Saturdays to play Legacy?

    I moved to Texas for grad school a few years ago, but I'm also from the Portland area. There's a handful of Legacy guys in the area, although I'm not sure how many of them are still very active. Ancient Wonders is my favorite shop, by far; George is a great guy, he has tons of Legacy Staples, and I'm ALWAYS glad to spend money in his store. I'll forward your request to the local guys I know.

    I sure as hell would rather play in Portland than Vancouver. Other Worlds had fairly consistent Legacy tournaments a year ago or so and I think Ron would easily start doing them again if someone gave him half a nudge. I've never played at Guardian Games, but I'd be down with that too.

    I would love to play for the next few weeks and hopefully any random weeks I can. I'm kind of in between things right now deck-wise, since I am thinking of selling the only deck I have now to hopefully make one that will definitely be legal in ten days. But anyway, I would totally be down for something. I live close to Other Worlds, have been to Ancient Wonders, never been to Guardian Games but have checked out their website, and I am down to do the weeklies in Vancouver.

    We should get together this weekend and/or next week at Other Worlds or Guardian Games. Tomorrow I'll be heading up to CCG House for the tournament, but I'd be down for some Legacy on Sunday at Other Worlds. During the week I work 9-5, so anytime in the evening I could play.

    I'll be in town for about two weeks over break. I'd love to sit down for an afternoon of EDH.

    I'm up to play EDH and Legacy, though I don't have an EDH deck yet. I know, I know, I'm working on that. I'm free anytime after 6:00pm during the week.

    What: Legacy Tournament
    Prize: Ancestral Recall (if enough players register)
    Where: Ancient Wonders, Tualatin
    When: 1pm, New Years Day (Jan. 1)

    I was at Ancient Wonders the other day and saw some guys buying Legacy cards. I asked them about it, and they excitedly told me about the tournament. Unfortunately I left most of my Legacy decks in Texas, but I have AdNT here. Anyone have Dredge I can borrow?

    Yes! A local Legacy tournament!
    No! I'm out of town this weekend! Damnit.

    You should post this in the Tournament Announcements section.

    Just wanted to toss in a thumbs-up for George and Ancient Wonders. I drove up from Eugene, and it was a great group of people, and a really cool shop. Nice to play in a different meta, against different decks. I hope he does more tourneys (even w/o a big prize).

    What were you playing? Do you have a mini tournament report? Hope you had fun! Agreed on George and Ancient Wonders being awesome.

    Re: Looking for some players in the Portland, Oregon area!

    I've been out of legacy for a long while now and have been looking to fix that. I used to play a lot here in Vancouver, mostly at The Batcave with the ever so occasional trip out to PDX.

    I sold off my collection a few years ago though so I have virtually no cards until I begin the painful process of rebuilding >.>

    Anyway, it'd be nice to find some people that are willing to playtest with while I rebuild, either in person at shops or even over MWS.

    Anybody up for some games this week? I've got to get some practice in before I play in a tournament. Other Worlds? Ancient Wonders? Guardian Games?
