I thought this was the new NYSE playmat for a second.

It should be the last place trophy. 

Now that's a prize I'd be willing to fight for.

There's no way I can miss the podium with my deck choice!

Looks like I'll be riding to this shindig.

There were stories about what happened.... It's true... All of it... The Dark Side... The Jedi... They're real.

Hello TMD,

I was introduced to the MtG early 90s and have been playing on and off ever since.  My friends and I play Vintage and we mostly use older cards, but have incorporated newer ones.

I'm addicted to playing multi color decks.  I have 22 dual-lands and most of them make it into most of the decks I build.
My latest deck is Storm Grounded (TPS)
http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/storm-grounded-final/

A couple of my other favorites to play are:
http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/turbofog-03-04-13-1/
http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/enchantress-07-06-13-1/

I live in northeast Ohio and would like to try out a Vintage tournament sometime.

Best,
Dennis

Welcome.

There's a pretty solid group of guys who travel and play vintage around Cleveland. They call themselves Team Serious and their communications hub can be found here.

Duane is going to post a TO report at some point, but in the mean time here are the top 8 deck lists.  There are a couple interesting builds:

Edit: I was asked by the TO to take down lists until he posts his report. It should be coming tonight.

WTF! These Team Serious guys need to get ther s*&t straight.

Good grief, The Comic Book Depot sure hosts one hell of an 8 man tourney.

Awesome look into the different worlds of mtg.

This is pretty much what it's like when Twaun's not around.





I always thought it was more like this...

The Dark Side must have clouded this one from me, but apparently BB-8 is a real droid.

Every time I see Nat purposely schedule one of these when I'm out of town.



At least there probably won't be any workshops in the Q.

I could be interested in this. 

But I would run insane decks that have no bearing on the Vintage metagame.

Any deck appearing in any Vintage event anywhere has bearing on the metagame. 





I suppose you're right

I think the newest member for VSL Season 3 will be Reid Duke, who actually loves Vintage, and plays quite a bit of MTGO (and who I think would be a great option). If you want to dream about most of the other fan favorites who are Vintage personalities you should start another league, because realistically it's probably not going to happen in VSL. They want huge borderline Hall of Fame names to attract viewers and legitimacy (and who already play MTGO), and most of the sentimental requests here probably aren't realistic to those ends.


You telling me us average Joe's won't have a shot at the VSL?    Inconceivable....

It would be greatly appreciated if those reading this post were willing to spread the word of the event, and help us hit the goal of 150 players.  I do not run these events as a for-profit venture, as I hope the prize support reflects.  I need the support of the community in order to keep running them.

I've initiated the Team Serious Team Destruction Hype Syndicate over here in C-Town.

I feel bad for everyone I told my deck seemed bad. It played just fine all day. I'm sorry you all had to listen to my doubts.

Ha! The old Jedi mind trick.....
