Watching games live isn't the big draw for me.  It's the opportunity to watch the games at all.  It would be much easier to just record the games and then have commentators record over the video at their convenience, before posting it to YouTube.  Looking forward to watching the matches!

I'm a longtime lurker here and started playing Magic in '94 (sometime between Legends and the Dark).  However, I've only really played Magic for a handful of the past 20 years and I've sold all my cards and bought back in a few times.  What really brought me back this time is the diversity and stability of eternal formats.  The VSL, So Many Insane Plays podcast, and this forum have all convinced me that Vintage is truly worth my time.  I'm looking forward to learning more about the best format in Magic.
