As a Canadian, these hockey alters please me greatly :P Must have been a really nice evening, lots of love in the air haha.

Been spreading random DTR name drops on reddit to people gaining interested in the burn deck and/or Zem's run. I feel oddly like a cultist.

I don't know those decks, to be sure. I had been watching the stream live today, but I don't think I find that style of play interesting really. Battle of the combos it seems.

I feel like they need 1 black mana slaughter games or something in that format, to keep people from doing nothing but digging for ultra.

Just play affinity. You setting up for combo? take 10 infect. Affinty, Pod, Twin, three best decks in the format. Storm up there as well.
You gotta understand, I love the beatdown. I really do. I always have.

Well, he drew his singleton shatterstorm and won. Sometimes you just have to be lucky.

Besides, fantastic format modern ! top 8 was only pod and affinity.... seems like nacatl and bitterblossom had a big impact in modern XD

If you win lots you have lots of tix. Until then play pauper.

I'd check out gatherling.com and puremtgo.com; they run free entry tournaments with small prizes that can help you build a bank roll. Ill spot you a pauper deck if you like I have most lying around.

I maintain that modern is WotC's trying to have the reserve list both ways. They get to keep the reserve list (of all the promises that a US corporation has made, the reserve list is the only one ever kept, and the customers hate it) and offer up an eternal format untainted by it. If they would get a little more aggressive with the banned list they might have something with modern, but until then we'll have the pod, twin, and affinity metagame, and decks will cost half a year's pay because of their failure to keep their promise of keeping the format accessible.

WotC: Keeping the promises you want broken and breaking the promises you want kept since 1993.

You do need to try to gay it up a little more.

You're like the least gay member of this clan.

And that's counting the fact that you voluntarily have sex with men.
