GP New Jersey

Poor Miracle player, he fucked up in the very end D:

He's fortunate that Wescoe conceded.

[(nameless one)]

Made day 2 at 8-1 record.

With Deadguy?

May the gods of variance continue to bless this metalworker utter dominance player.

I missed it. Did he win?

[TheAardvark]

Time for Food Chain/Genesis Hydra.

[Darkenslight]

Yep, let's just cast Misthollow Griffin until you die. Makes a change from Day 1.

[(nameless one)]

Modern GP coverage: All the weird decks on day one, same decks day two.

Legacy GP coverage: Delver day one, real decks on day two.

Was nice to see something other than Miracles/Delver.

[Dice_Box]

Hunt? Fuck, I really like the energy that Philips and Sull bring to the coverage.

Welp, that was a dead Infect dude.

does lands just have good matchup vs delver?

does lands just have good matchup vs delver?

If you have a good start, yes. Because you run two EE main and can loop them on top of having Tabernacle, being the most effective Wasteland deck in the room and there is not a whole lot of grave hate in the Delver decks right now. Also you get to draw 3 cards a turn while they get to do it maybe four times. Its fun to play.

there are 2 dark depths decks that made day 2, does anyone know their lists or anything about them?

The two Lands listed are of the rG combo variety, no EE.

With that said, there is no denying what you just wrote, Lands has a couple of (not too rare) opening hands that just crushes Delver.
There is currently, at least, 4 Lands at x-2 or better.

The fuck is going on with that lands deck?
I cannot be the only one feeling disgustipated.

Welp, it's out of Top8 contention now thanks to Become Immense.

Lam's decks have always looked like that going on 11+ years. All his friends are serious pimps and have everything, he just rolls with the anti pimp and trolls everyone, it's fantastic.

Our good old JPA plays at 11-2 now. Sneaky sneaky.

Oh, Combo lands runs 4 Punishing Fire, 3/4 Grove, 3/4 Crop Rotation and 4 Gamble. You just become the control deck faster than Delver can deal with it and once you have Loam going, you just get more mana to loop Fire and run them out of Creatures. Having a 4/2 Split of Exploration and Manabond helps too. There is also the matter of the flying 20/20 that they have exactly 0 answers for that is a fun way to close out the game.

I can not wait for my Gambles to arrive in the mail, its all I am missing to build this.

Trolling with style = win.
Using markers to blacken the background and just making the cards look like they are designed to cause epileptic shocks = not so cool.

I would not have minded a drawn dickbutt on them, I do like a completely whitebordered deck etc.
But those cards really bothered me more than I'd like to admit.

Mud !
