Warning: I haven't watched this yet, so I have no idea as to the quality of the video:

Team Serious: Always in the background. Always.

The video quality was good. I would have liked about a half-hour more detail, but it was a good introduction to the format. Maybe some people will get interested in the format ("Hey, I already have a playset of Slash Panthers! I guess I'm all set to play Vintage"). I'd like to see more videos like this on more websites.

Yeah, I also thought the editing was done really well. It was a bit on the short side, but it still delivered a little peek into the Vintage world.

I didn't even notice. I was hypnotized by those magical eyes of yours.

"If you're coming to the vintage championships without power, you can come and play and you'll have a good time, but you chances of top 8 ing or winning are slim to none."

Best part of this video: my cameo at the :55 second mark!

But on a serious note, this video was very good quality, but at the same time only really scratches the surface of what vintage is all about. Even at my own store, where there are an abundance of good vintage players, it's hard to translate to those who don't participate in the format.



What this video really did for me, was made me miss Gencon. What an amazing time.
