    SCG Memphis Top 4

    Elves vs. MUD
    Burn vs. Junk

    Zero blue cards. Who was it that said you can't win in Legacy without blue?

    Would higher caliber players attend a starcity games event or a grand prix?

    Judging from the plays these guys are making, it should be obvious, but nonetheless, non-blue decks are perfectly fine.

    My boys taking it all (Welder and Metalworker).
    I am convinced that WotC is "dumbing" the game because of all the stupid posts they come across on MTG-related forums

    I wouldn't take the results too seriously. There were under 100 people there and most of them were pretty noobish. Lots of people playing whatever they could get their hands on with zero playtesting.

    As an isolated incident, that's totally true.

    However, this is in many ways just another confirmation of the trend away from blue "good card" based decks, into more traditionally Legacy strategies relying on synergy.
    Early one morning while making the round,
    I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down;
    I went right home and I went to bed,
    I stuck that lovin' .44 beneath my head.

    Some people here said the opression of the Brainstorm decks was a trend not actual show of power. I'm happier with each tournament that proves it.

    sorry for ignorance, but what is Junk?
    "If your enemy is secure at all points, be prepared for him.
    If he is in superior strength, evade him.
    If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him.
    Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant.
    If he is taking his ease, give him no rest.
    If his forces are united, separate them.
    Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected."

    BGW Junk?
    If you fail to explain the reason behind your choice, technically, it's the wrong choice.

    Boo, stupid welder mud/burn finals! Burn always has a chance to get ahead of a junk player before the game stabilizes. Welder in the finals is pretty awesome though, I'm not familiar with the deck enough to say what it has been given in the new sets that have made it playable.

    Dear WotC,

    Could you please nerf the colors green, red, black, and white so the previously unstoppable combo of Force of Will+Brainstorm can be top dog again? While you are it could you guys ban all sol lands?
