Results T8 Seattle 5/27 Prize: Mox Jet, Bazaar of Bagdad, Itallion Mana Drain x2

[Sean Ryan]

Randy Buehler playing Grim Long takes home yet another piece of power beating me in the finals.

Top8

1st  Grim Long - Randy Buehler
2nd Dark Fish - Sean Ryan
3rd Stax - Joel Brauer
4th Control Slaver - Michael Gurney
5/6 5c Bazaar Stax - Darren Bennet
5/6 Control Slaver - Rob Leidle
7/8 Cerebral Assassin - Gordy
7/8 Control Slaver - Kevin Berg


The tournament was around 25 people, high powered, and had prize great support.  1st place: Mox Jet, 2nd: Bazaar, (minty & mine;) 3/4: Itallion Drain.  It's suprising more people didn't show for this.

Deck lists are not available as of yet, but I will be posting a report sometime this weekend.  All I can was this Fish build was the perfect metagame choice.  The deck was designed to beat up on Slaver, while having at least a decent match up against everything else.  Half of the games I played were against Control Slaver, needless to say I won all of those matches.  You can check a preliminary decklist here:

Check for a report soon.

Thanks

Sean I thought I would help you out with a few of the names that you missed from the top 8. The 3rd place Stax player's name was Joel Brauer, the 7th/8th place Cerebral Assassin player's name was Gordy, and the 7/8th place Control Slaver player was indeed Kevin Berg Jr.
