Everybody should check out this tourney. We had a turnout of 33 last time and we had people from L.A., Tucson, and Texas come from out of town. Give me a call or email me at magicnet69z@yahoo.com if you have any further questions.

Seriously guys, this is supposed to be a badass tourney.  I didn't make the last one, and sadly, I won't make this one, but I've been told the LV guys are a cool crew, and the prize is purty niice.


So, seriously, get off your lameasses and go.  Dude, it's Vegas.  Make a weekend out of it.

Well,  it looks like you broke even with covering prizes/entries.  Could be worse.  Hopefully you get more people next time.

What is the meta like in vegas aside from 9 proxy?  Do many people have power?  Is there a lot of combo? fish? control? aggro? etc.
