WATERBURY!  I'm Legendary guess that's a reason to show up

Travis you always made for a fun Vintage event.  I wish I was able to make it down to a couple of your events in CT the weekends just didn't work out for me.  Maybe Vintage will get picked up again and you'll be around again.  Good luck in school.

please Preregister me.  If you could work moxmonkey eating part of the lotus into my proxy that would be amazing.  Thank you.

I'll be there with a few.   

If I can get work off I'll be coming down to this. Ray always runs the best events and theres plenty of more PTQs to go to.  TMD Open ALWAYS > PTQ in my books. Now time to find 4 Gush and 3 Merchant Scroll. 

I was trying to proxy up some T2 and T1 decks to put into my testing Circle but I lost the link to the French site I had.  Anybody have some good sites that let you proxy up decks easy?  Thanks in advance.

If I can get some Power I will probably play some of the Side events.  Still tossed up on which Main event I'm going to enter though but the Vintage boosters got me more interested in playing the Vintage main event.

If I was going to play CS it would have to look something like this

4 Force of Will
4 Mana Drain
3/2 Duress
1/2 Tormod's Crypt
- 12

3 Goblin Welder
1 Mindslaver
1 Sundering Titan
1 Duplicant
- 6

4 Brainstorm
4 Thirst for Knowledge
3 Nights Whisper
1 Ancestral Recall
- 12

1 Time Walk
1 Yawgmoth's Will
1 Demonic Tutor
1 Mystical Tutor
1 Tinker
- 5

1 Echoing Truth
- 1

24 Mana sources

I'm not sure on the number of Duress and T Crypts mainboard

I tested Mana Leaks a while ago and I'm pretty sure they were alright but they weren't amazing.  Leaks could go over Duress's in my list without a big problem I think.

To me Black is more important / better than Red since it allows for cheaper draw to stay in the early game and for better disruption(across the field) in the form of Duress(vs REB).  Also you get to board Yixlid Jailer for Ichorid.

It will stick around but most likely as a Tier 2 deck, doing good once in a while.

REB?  I'm not sure what is good against them.  Might want to include hate against Bomberman in here too.

Street Wraith does not belong in CS, Losing life doesn't help and Most list Do not play Vampiric tutor to take advantage of it.

It came up in a game where someone casted a lethal tendrils, and someone responded by casting Reiterate. My question is, does reiterate copy storm, or just one copy of the tendrils?

Corey Fraser  Repeal Gifts 
Decklist withheld by Coreys Request

Hopefully He holds another tournament soon and Thanks again for everyone who showed up.

This things tomarrow.  Whos comming to it?

I'm going to try and make it out to this one. 

Bump.  Only a Week away

It has Cool Art and looks badass in Japanese.

Bouncing Null Rod while cantripping is pretty good too.

Anyone know what the Stax list that won Day 2 looked like?  What did he run as a lock set?

Bump

What you all forgot about the Power of Verdant Force or something?

I'll be here with a Car full of people.  Waterburys Rule

The unknown Gifts list is mine if anyone really cares.  I gave Craig the list and he made Top 4 with it and then I asked him to withhold it so its not out before Rochester.  I'll release it after Rochester but don't ask for it anytime before.  Damn Team secrets. 

Bump.

Rich Why is there a Memory Jar in CS again.   

You still lost to the power of Ninja even with the Ninja killer deck 

I'll go with number 3 because they only get 1 turn to find an out and you have Demonic Tutor (useable with Lotus Petal) left even if they find their out.  Demonic Tutor lets you get back in the game no matter what happens with finding Yawgmoth's Will, Ancestral Recall or a TFK to put DSC into the deck depending on what you topdeck. 

Hatch your so bad at calling what I run. 

Fish is awful. 
I lost my Burning Wish.
My new Pile doesn't have any Rack and Ruin's in it.

What could I be running?  You gotta come to NY to find out.

I'll be putting my newest pile into one of these Top 8's.  Now the problem is which one will it be.

Brazil will win.
