1  Eternal Formats / Global Vintage Tournament Reports and Results / Re: Uba Stax wins Black Lotus at Eudemonia in Berkely, CA 43 People on: August 01, 2005, 05:03:07 am
Stan played the exact maindeck Uba Stax deck as Brent and Vroman with a few minor changes in his sideboard.
As for myself I played Luis' exact deck, card for card and loss to him round 1  Sad.
I ended up 5-2, second loss coming from Lunar in round 4 i think. I ended in 9th place and got nothing. BLAH.
Picking up Gifts and playing it in a 7 round tourney is so much fun but not advisable.
How can my tiebreakers suck when my only losses were to the #1 and #8 seed?
Whatever, this was by the far the most fun tournament i had ever played in and i did not even Top 8.
I credit it to the shop , the brokeness that is GG: Gifts Given, the greatness that is T1 Magic(which i just learned after playing Gifts), and the personality of its players.
I hope legacy turns out to be as fun as this series has been.

P.S. Brent (CC Regional Champ and Lotus winner) is the man, and my prediction from the begining of the tournament was him, it was Stan but then Brent decided to play it as well, swear ask anyone. I had played the deck for 2 weeks(60 card proxy Uba Stax, hell yah) and knew what the matches were against the big 3 that were there. Fish, Gifts, and Oath. Certain people did not listen to me when i said how good the deck was, and since i got so much negative feedback i decided not to play it. That's ok though i fell in love with Gifts. Later All, any questions ask me.

Hey, I would like to know the tourney schedule and address' for the stores in Vacaville and Davis(end zone, bizzaro world), I go to Sonoma State and I believe my friend Stan Gin (t4 at Eudemonia's Pearl tourney playing NorCal Oath)wanted to take me along to visit some of the stores sometime this week. I do know some of the Davis players,(well Luis and have played a couple of his friends) and was hoping to maybe get some play in during the week if the timing is right.

ps: A couple friends and I went to visit Ken Johnson (Kil0) and to play in the DMF Mox Sapphire tourney in SoCal this weekend. Ken and I met in the last round and he decided that I would have the better match ups in the top 8. As was planned i had great matchups for Oath and went home with the Mox Sapphire. NorCal Oath rules(creator: Phuong Tran).

pps: Hope to see you all at the Eudemonia Series Tournaments. I didn't play in the first one, but i was there rooting on Stan and the CnJ Crew.
