Congrats to everyone

Every deck minus Matt Morrison's workshop deck, and turbo land had duress in it, either SB or maindeck.  AT LEASt, if not much much more, than HALF the field was running dark confidant.

Confidant is the nutz, obv. It was good seeing you guys again. Congrats on the Top-4 with a deck straight out of 2004 Soly, but the real props go to Morrison for winning with that pile. Way to go, buddy. You're the best.

Anyway, it's good to know I teched my board for the metagame almost perfectly, even if I didn't get to play (although I couldn't have run the board I wanted to due to lack of card availabity).

Anyway, I'm glad I could get that Weird to you, and see you guys next time, hopefully playing.

Congrats to the winnars. The field was concentrated with really good players with a large number of starcity t8'rs including myself, Brain Fisher, Endress, moxlotus, TK, the Carps. Ben was the only one of us to make t8 here though.

I lost to infi discard again. I lost 1 game to Ravenous Rats. LOL PWNED!

[dogleg969]

The 60th card in my Workshop Aggro list is Mana Crypt.

That got me a game loss in top 8.  I shoud crush Fish all day w/ my deck, but Owen got the first game and that was it. 

And maybe it does look like a pile, but LARGEMEN are just fun to cast sometimes.

[M.Solymossy]

Largemen are ALWAYS fun to cast.
