ELD's Mox XI TO Report - Pics + link to full gallery

[ELD]

Thank you to everyone who attended this event.  With 34 players, we were able to increase the prize support considerably, making for some insane prizes for 5th-8th.  I truly appreciate all the support from the community and look forward to it's continued growth.  We have a ton of momentum heading into the ultimate ELD event - ELD's Mox XII - This Time it's Black Lotus! 

Congratulations to Ray Robillard, winner of the Pre-registration Foil Time Walk.  Thank you to everyone who pre-registered, it really does help things run as smoothly as possible. 

The images from the event can be found here.



Everyone who attended received a hand made ELD Proxy of Timetwister.  Only 50 of these were made, and they do not count towards the proxy limits at ELD or Myriad events. 



Some people requested a custom proxy, as seen below.

[slighguy]

This was a Great Tournament! i Enjoyed it very much, and ill Deff be at your next 1 !!

Congrats to Rich for PWNING me in the finals!!!

[Cane1024]

Nick here. The event was great as always. ELD's events are very fun and well run. The prizes were great as I finished my proxy collection finally.
Oath made quite an impact as suspected. Congrats to all that top8'd. Good job to Jeremiah for beating me even when down a game for forgetting to unside. That shows the power of Oath being able to pull out wins from nowhere. I hope to see all at Myriad. Peace.

[Tobi]

Demonic Attorney's list misses 4 cards. No obvious ones I guess...

Lots of Tyrants in the latest top 8 lists. Are they really that good?

[Demonic Attorney]

Merchant Scroll, Thoughtseize, and Ponder should be 3-ofs.  Tyrant, despite a performance that tended to suggest the contrary, should be a 2-of.  Sorry if the discrepancy was due to illegible handwriting.

[Tobi]

Sorry if the discrepancy was due to illegible handwriting.

For professional reasons, demonic attorneys are demanded to write illegibly. 

Thanks for the update.
