Last Saturday was the opening tournament of the 2015 LCV new season. 37 players attended the event hold at Maná Infinito Store in Barcelona ready to fight for 6 rounds and top8.
After the update in the Banned and Restricted list and Vintage Super KLeague published decklists many players were speculating whether the metagame would drastically change or just swift a little bit. Finally we saw that the trend taken was the same of the last tournaments of last year minus Cruise: An increase in Oath, Mud getting back and some hate decks plus the Big blue players with a face (gift) lift.
After 4 rounds, just the first table could ID (Bonet and Medrano) as there was a pair of players who IDed earlier and were 3-1-0 (Adam Subirana and Antoni Sánchez).
With round 5 standings in mind, we saw that if the 10 points players won, the cut would be clean to 13 points (and this is what exactly happened):
Here are the
top8 pairings:
Carles Miñón (UW Specter Blade) wins vs. Adam Subirana (BUG Gifts)
Israel Muñoz wins the Kuldotha mirror vs. Javier David
Jaume Bonet (Grisel Oath) wins vs. Ferran Relat (UW Blade)
Antoni Sánchez (Demon Oath) wins vs. Edu Medrano (Nemesis Noble Fish)
In the
top4:
Isra with Kuldotha MUD wins vs. Antoni Sánchez (Demon Oath)
Jaume Bonet (Grisel Oath) wins vs. Carles Miñón (UW Specter Blade)
In the
Finals:
Jaume Bonet wins the first game thanks to Mental Misteping Isra´s Sol Ring:
Despite this early advantage, Isra manages to win G2.
With 1-1 on the scoreboard, Jaume needs to mulligan this hand:
To find a much better one with Ancestral.
Isra keeps a 1st turn Trinisphere:
That meets Bonet FOW. However, Jaume does not draw more lands and needs to fire a Brainstorm that shows him his final fate due to no more lands...
