This might not even be a good question to ask, but I was thinking a bit tonight about the GP for Legacy and it got me thinking...with everyone wanting wizards to support vintage more with events beyond World Champs, what would a metagame for a tournament of that size look like? What do you think turnout would be? Would it be a warped view of the format due to the majority of the people playing not having power? Would it be unfair to even have such a thing due to all the people that do not have Power?

Regardless of how fair it is, it would have to be no proxy.  Consider City in a Bottle, how does it affect City of Brass proxies, are they assumed to be the latest edition, first edition, other?  If the person actually writes the edition on the proxy, does that count as being from that edition?

In general, I think it's quite doable.  Vintage World Championship proved that there will still be a good turnout in the US for a large scale sanctioned Vintage tournament (specifically in the US since they are already common across the pond).  There is enough hate that it's still possible for budget and hate decks to prosper, as well.  It'd definitely be doable, and I'd love to see it happen (I'm looking into flying out for the Legacy GP, actually).
