Very nice top 8. I especially like the Fowchorid list. It was something I was toying around with some months ago but never finalized it or took it to a tournament.

Also I would like to mention that this is one of the best written top 8 lists in aeons. No missing cards and not a single mistyped cardname. Awesome! 

BTW, could you please add the tournament location and date of the event to your postings, wette? I need the info for the morphling upload.

-Sure I can: Location: the tournament took place in "Mollet del Valles", but i think you could locate all CVl tournaments just as "catalan vintage league", but... do it as you wish 

Date: 30-08


cheers,

I think the location could be a little more explicit:

Location: Mollet del Valles, Barcelona (Spain)

Updated with top 8 pairings

[dwpoker]

I am in Barcelona for the rest of the week. Is there any vintage going on? Small or large tournaments or just casual gatherings of players. Or anyone that would just like to get together and play a casual game?

Hi dwpoker!

I'm Jordi (piZZero from Team Pataners) and if you want we can meet up on Friday afternoon for some games at the Black Lotus Shop here in Barcelona. Shop opens at 17:00 in the afternoon and it's located in the crossing between streets Ali Bei and Sant Joan. (Next to the bar Napoleon).

P.M. for more info if you need some.

Btw, on saturday, at the same shop there's gonna be a Legacy tournament (40+ players) starting at 10:30 am.

Cheers!
