Sanctioned Vintage at Scholars is gaining some serious momentum.  Thank you to everyone who showed up to make this our biggest event yet.  We will definitely be hosting another Monday Night Sanctioned Vintage soon.  Since the support has been so strong, we're going to schedule a Saturday event before Champs comes around in November.  

I'd like to thank Dave at Scholars for making these possible.  His tireless support for Vintage has given the community a place to play for years.  His extremely generous prize support offered up nearly $450 in credit for the Top 4 and Highest Unpowered to divide up.  On top of the already amazing prizes, Dave also gave the Top 4 an option on a From the Vault: 20 with their winnings.  

We had Wyrmwood games back for this one.  Their custom deck boxes are the highest quality, most distinguished way to carry your prized Eternal decks.  First place walked away with one of their beautiful hand crafted boxes:



We've partnered with the End Step to bring you coverage of all our Sanctioned Events.  Enjoy the 4 matches below.  I really appreciate all the feedback on these, and we'll continue to improve as we do what we can to grow the format.  Anyone who knows how to embed these videos, instead of linking, hit me up.

These were fun to watch.  Well, except for the Dredge match because Dredge is boring to watch.  I like how that video is half an hour shorter than the others because there are so many fewer meaningful decisions in games involving Dredge.

Thanks for taping, getting commentary too was cool.  Can't wait for the next batch!

Vintage is a lovely format, it's too bad so few people can play because the supply of power is so small.

Chess really changed when they decided to stop making Queens and Bishops.  I'm just glad I got my copies before the prices went crazy.

This is one of the best vintage video content i have seen. Thanks for uploading. The commentary is great, too.

Keep it up!

I will be playing four of these.  I'll worry about the deck later.
