The rules for this competition will be:


Upwelling and Trinisphere's effects are always in play. (But the cards are not)
 

Banned list:
Unglued
Mishra's Workshop
Mishra's Factory
The Rack
Wheel of Torture
Rackling
Spells/Effects that make your opponent's discard cards
Spells/Effects that target your oppnent's lands

Note:
Avalanche riders would be legal, their CIP would just be god-stifled.

What is 3cb?

3-Card Blind (3CB) is a very unique game. The rules are as follows

Your deck is composed of 3 cards, all of which start in your hand.
You have no library (technically, the library exists, but starts at 0 cards) and no sideboard (Wishes fetch nothing).
Random effects always go in your opponent's favour.
You can see your opponent's hand, so you can always make the best possible play.
You don't lose as a result of not being able to draw a card.
You will play each opponent twice, once going first, once going second.
For each win, you score 3.
For each draw, you score 1.
For each lose, you get nothing.
Other than the aforementioned, EVERYTHING IS HANDLED EXACTLY LIKE A REAL GAME OF MAGIC!


To make an entry, PM your deck to me in the following format:

Subject: 3cb Tournament #27 Entry or 3cb Tournament#27 Revision
Deck Name
Card #1
Card #2
Card #3

Optional Deck discussion, random sucking up, etc.


I will calculate the first 15 entrants who I receive, or I'll close entries after a week. That means get your entries in on/by Feb 18th and do it fast. Lets see who'll take it this time.

Damn... if the cards were in play, then I'd have played the ever-so-slightly good city of traitors-nevinyrral's disk-straw golem deck - removing the upwelling and the trinisphere on turn 3's quite potent, I think! ah well, I'll have to come up with some other bright idea now. Hopefully my winning streak can continue.... and can anyone think of the mise-prize deck this time?

What if a card tells you to remove the top card of your library from the game?  Do you lose because of this?

If a card tells you to remove the top card of your library from the game, not much will happen! Well, unless there's a card there, of course.

Jacob - I beat your deck, by the way.  Very Happy  Razz .

Such a shame that pox and balance are both banned, too, they'd be a lot of fun to play with!

My deck is kind of a long shot, but if it pays off it will do so big-time.

"Yes Darksteel is legal.  I have already received 15 entries.  If I get more, before I finish calculating, I'll try to include them.  The one's aren't as trivial.

I expect many people will. I just want to see if anyone manages to LOSE to me. =)

Edit: plus, Serra + Fireball! Could it be any cooler? I submit that it cannot.
