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 loss, 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 combo_dude in the following format:

Card #2
Card #3
Optional Deck discussion, random sucking up, etc.
I'll close entries after 2 weeks. Get your entries in by 10th November and I'll calculate. As I said, the banned list may change within 48 hours of this post going up. After that, it stays as it is. This is not a reason to withold your decks, though - this is not a particuarly serious format! If something's broke, please fix it whilst we can!
Business as usual - RAVNICA IS NOW LEGAL.
Results will be up later today or tomorrow - unfortunately computer viruses make it quite hard to do anything with an Excel document...
Oh, and one other thing: you'll see why after the results, but I am
amending the banned list - UNHINGED IS ALSO BANNED. As of 66, nothing silver-bordered, please!
