Ah. Good to see Super Grow (aka U/w/g Threshold) on top.

I just got back from testing against Goblins and Survival at the library and stomped the ever-living hell out of 'em.

But Predict?   If it works, rock on.

[ChemEng]

I was the number 2 in the Top 8 and gave him the win and the byes for his product. Still not certain that I would be able to make it to the GP, so I decided to take the sure thing... Just note that the sideboard I used was rather inconsequential for most of the day... Chains came in versus non-counter/REB packing decks and thats about it...

[Matt]

You know, we really should stop calling it Gro until Dryad comes back and just stick with 3cThreshold.

[Tash]

...yep that was my salvagers-oath combo build that made 3rd place.

There's already changes that have been made, but hey, that's how it goes.

[Raven Fire]

Wow! Eight different decks in the T8 (and no Goblins); that's one wide open meta.

[Tash]

There were 3 goblins decks there. They just weren't as good as everyone else. 

There were also 3 MBC decks, and I had the (dis)pleasure of playing 2 of them. Those things are scary from time to time.

[Bardo]

You know, we really should stop calling it Gro until Dryad comes back and just stick with 3cThreshold.

For the record, I fully endorse this idea. I've been calling the deck "Blue-White-Green Threshold" for some time now, but that's a mouthful and a pain in the ass to write. From now on, I'll refer to the deck as "3cThreshold". That's pretty elegant.
