I gotta say, Jason Miller is my new favoritest player EVAR!

That Tezzeret Deck looks Savage.  Whoever has been playing that must be very sexy

Hi Tiffany,
it seems you missed to list John A's manabase.
And your own list misses 2 sideboard cards.

Very nice and diverse top 8. Keep it up! 

[Schonkreuz]

I swear I need to be more careful when I type these things...or not type them as soon as I wake up! It is late right now but as soon as I wake up tomorrow I will correct these things. Thank you.

Fixed my SB just to let you know.
 
Forgot that his list was the same as last week, everything fixed!

[getcombowned]

so top three split that's our team we never even played out the rest of the bracket. and i loved M.Solymossy list. it was the cats a$$.

This seems like it was fun tournament to play through. I do like some of the lists that appeared in the top 8, actually had fun reading through the specific card choices, which normally leads to copy/pasting action. The most intriguing list being left for dead, guilty pleasure as i am found of the deck style. My one question is, is crop rotation missed? I know that the inclusion of blue give you much more diverse tutoring ability, but it seems like most players would make you work through the intution package instead of giving you the piece you need right off the bat. Even though there is the possibility I am not reading into/thinking about the list enough to understand more, but wouldnt crop rotation seem like it should be in the deck for its capacity to bring out the needed piece? Since I have yet to play a version of this deck with blue in it, I would like to know your htoughts about this versus the bgw version. 

[Schonkreuz]

Honestly there were several cards that I wanted to put in, and with time restraints the deck was put together very quickly. That was one of the cards left out that I really wish were in it, just a simple mistake is all. Next time I play it will most certainly be in there!
