This is the most awesome news I've heard all hour! (Last hour Vroman showed me pics of my new shops!) R&D picked you. I am sure that someone there understands that Vintage Players built Magic. Sure, Booster Drafts are fun, but dude, you got your just props. Now kick ass and make a Smmedling Mage.

Booyakasha.
Winning the Vintage Champs probably didn't hurt either.
Go kick some ass. Let us know if you ever need playtesting partners.

Congrats Steve! This seems like a hell of a win for the whole eternal community. Also: With Vintage being one of the five formats to be played at this year's Invitational... Well, that sounds like a good start to a successful tournament for you!

Congratulation Steve! You show them Pro Tour boys a thing or two about playing magical cards. I doubt R&D even read it, but I made a post in the discussion thread of the Storyteller article arguing that the R&D Invite should go to Steve. And that was before he became the Vintage Champ!

This is excellent news! I thought there may have been a chance that they'd select you after coming in 2nd place of the Storyteller Ballot, but figured it was still a longshot. Congratulations and this is well-deserved for your dedication and expertise in promoting the Eternal formats! Furthermore it's awesome that Vintage will return as one of the Invitational formats! Things have never been looking so good as they are now for Vintage! Keep up the great work-

Have they decided what all the different formats are? I can't seem to find a list on the site.

looks like they've decided but they only announced vintage. at the end of the article he says "more on the other formats at a later date".

Well the format with the decks that people submitted has already been "determined" to some extent.
