I will be playing Doomsday, and my W/L ratio's about 70% with that deck in the last 4 tournaments I've played at.

All you braindead shop players, prepare to have all your ingots chewed.

1) they were not reprinted in Vintage Masters (but the comes into play tapped fetches from Mirage were)
Probably because they didn't put any Modern legal card?
That doesn't preclude the Onslaught fetches though.  Or Wasteland, or Misdirection. 

Didn't they promo all the Onslaught Fetches so they're super cheap?

Can we get a new board created for Vintage on MTGO?

Just saying, but for my retirement party, I'll part words with this:

I'm the greatest alive OR Dead.  You bring 'em out of the grave, and I'll put 'em back in.

Didn't you already let him join Meandeck once?

Yeah but it didn't work out because I dance to the beat of my own drum.

Someone better retire me the right way... into the 0-2 bracket.

If I top 8 this event, you all should be embarassed.  And I'll make sure you are!
12  Eternal Formats / Northeast U.S. / Re: N.Y.S.E. Open II - Power Eight, Workshops & Bazaars Vintage Event - 6/21-22 on: June 17, 2014, 03:03:36 pm
Did I say pick the lock?  I meant something more like this.....

You OBVIOUSLY haven't met me... it would be more like this

The ball = my statement.
The result = you.

I will do a home invasion on you. I will cut the power to your house and the next thing you'll hear is me climbing up your stairs in a pair of night vision goggles I bought in the back of Soldier of Fortune magazine. I'll pick the lock to the master room door, take a picture of you in bed with the Nogueira brothers working on your 'jiu-jitsu'. I'll take said quote unquote photograph, post it at dorksfrombrazil.com, password - not required, username - not required.


Listen Ertai Adept, I am coming to New York on Friday, and I'll tell youu this RIGHT NOW... This is going to be a home invasion.  I will cut the power to your house, and the next think you are gunna hear is me climbing your stairs in a pair of night vision goggles i bought in the back of Soldier of Fortune magazine.  I will pick the lock to your master bedroom, and take a picture of you and Samoht 'playtesting'.  I'll take that photograph, log onto idiotsfromtheeastcoast.com... password - not required.   Username - not required. 

THAT is how you talk trash.

I'll be fully powered in a couple weeks.

Gencon is a waste for vintage players.  I went last year because I was bored, split the Saturday event, Top 4ed the m14 Sealed Tournament, and still lost.
19  Eternal Formats / Creative / Re: Consult the Laboratory on: June 14, 2014, 10:53:12 am
Eh, true...I guess the deck is more resilient than I give it credit for.  I've just seen doomsday run this trick and stole many free games with decay after they try to gush for the win.

I can honestly say that I have never lost to Abrupt Decay with Doomsday.  You just assemple a pile that makes them have to act first, so you can respond.  I've even beaten double Abrupt Decay.
20  Vintage Community Discussion / General Community Discussion / Re: VINTAGE on Magic Online is announced!!! on: June 13, 2014, 05:51:33 pm
But i lost my first match to a literal retard because of a Misclick due to my glitchy mouse.  Sad

GOD this interface is AWFUL.

GOt an emerald in Draft.


And my most recent deck would make Smennen proud:

From memory
4 Deep Analysis
3 Frantic Search
2 Brainstorm (1 foil)
2 Obsessive Search
1 High Tide
2 Dark Ritual
1 Cabal Ritual
1 Skirge Familiar
1 Nightscape Familiar
2 Scrivner
1 Tendrils of agony
1 Brain Freeze
1 Temporal Fissure
1 Rescind
2 Lonely Sandbar
1 (Black Cycle Land)
X Swamps/Islands


Turn 6, I brainfreezed my opponent to 0 cards AND Tendrils'ed him to 0 life. 
21  Vintage Community Discussion / General Community Discussion / Re: VINTAGE on Magic Online is announced!!! on: June 13, 2014, 05:03:45 pm
No power in my first sealed, but I did get FLusterstorm, Tundra, and Tropical Island. 

Also got some garbage.
22  Eternal Formats / Northeast U.S. / Re: N.Y.S.E. Open II - Power Eight, Workshops & Bazaars Vintage Event - 6/21-22 on: June 13, 2014, 12:42:46 pm
I'd pass a Drug Test, because my balls work;  which is obvious by me posting my decklist and telling steve I'll show him how a real DDay player pilots the deck.

If you play Doomsday, you'll have wasted all of your time and money traveling to this event.   Wink

Not at all, since I am going for the Fun of it.  I'm selling all my cards after this event, so it works well for me to play a deck that I have fun with

24  Eternal Formats / Creative / Re: Consult the Laboratory on: June 13, 2014, 11:45:59 am
Could you share some replays of the test games? I would be very interested to watch you play.

The really nice thing about Magic Online is eventually I will be able to play decks like this!

I'm going 100% Digital for those that didn't know.
25  Eternal Formats / Northeast U.S. / Re: N.Y.S.E. Open II - Power Eight, Workshops & Bazaars Vintage Event - 6/21-22 on: June 13, 2014, 10:57:38 am
I decree that Craig Masley be known as the honorary "2nd place to Soly" of the event.

FTFY
26  Eternal Formats / Creative / Consult the Laboratory on: June 13, 2014, 10:17:13 am
So a year or to ago, I had this idea;  I tested it on Cockatrice and it was actually really good, but I couldn't find Japanese Divining Witch and now I'm retiring.  the Idea is to grind them out with 2/1 creatures, or kill them with Laboratory Maniac.

3 Divining Witch
3 Laboratory Maniac
1 Vendilion Clique
2 Flusterstorm
2 Mental Mistep
2 Spell Pierce
3 Duress

1 Ancestral Recall
1 Brainstrm
1 Ponder
2 Sensei's Divining Top
1 Hurkyl's Recall
1 Time Walk
5 Mox

I'm REALLY contemplating 'Working from home' the rest of the day haha.
28  Eternal Formats / Northeast U.S. / Re: N.Y.S.E. Open II - Power Eight, Workshops & Bazaars Vintage Event - 6/21-22 on: June 13, 2014, 09:40:49 am
Just registered for this. I live in the West Coast, but in a convenient turn of events I am going to NYC on this exact week for a family trip. I'm pumped for this!

What's the best way to get to the venue from Manhattan or Queens? I am willing to(would be happy to actually) walk for a few miles if need be.
 


Damn. I was hoping to have the lock on the 'furthest traveled' door prize Wink

Looks like it might be a tie

You better hope for door prizes, because when you're paired with me, I'm going to give you a lesson on how a REAL Doomsday pilot plays the deck.  

EDIT:  ZING!

EDIT 2:  It's so appropriate the Chael P. Sonnen announced his retirement this week, and I announced my retirement too.  How Correct Joel was to call me the Sonnen of vintage, HAHA.

The pre-reg list is current through today. 

As a side note, if you're going to pre-register, please choose IN STORE PICKUP as the option for shipping.  Choosing anything other than that will result in Top Deck Games being charged a fee!

Definitely just pre-registered without using instore pickup AFTER i read this.
