Just to let you know, I will be attending and you will never have seen what I am playing, but I can tell you this.
It will break vintage in half and more than likely restrict/ban a card.

Many, many thanks to Nick Coss, Simon, Ralph, and all the judges and staff for an awesome event that was run exceptionally well.
And additional thanks to Nick for finally convincing me that I needed to run a full board of Dredge hate. I don't think I've ever looked at a loss (round two at Princeton) with such positive light before. It definitely made today possible.
And congrats to Paul, who twiddled my City of Brass to beat me in the finals.

Pretty solid day of cards. Thanks to Nick and all the guys that made this day possible.
Congrats to Paul for taking it home after my massive misplay and giving game 3 away in our epic T8 match.
Hopefully alot of those guys make it to blue bell in two weeks.

This tournament was awesome - Thanks to Nick any everyone who made it possible. After losing round 1, I really had to climb back to win this one. Congrats to Beaver on top 8 - that match was really hard, and definitely caught some ironic luck on my draws right after you messed up and gave me that one more turn.
Congratulations are due for all of my top 8 opponents as my round vs Ichorid was by far the most difficult Ichorid of the day (i beat it 3 times). He Force of Willed my Tormod's Crypt! I almost lost my composure after that! And Prospero in the fianls - it's weird that my finals match in Pittsburgh was also 5C stax. I really botched the first game by not thoughtsezing one of your two welders. 2 Welders is like an insane combo and they are certainly NOT redundant - I will not make that mistake ever again! I think my deck has really good odds against shop so it was very forgiving. it was some of the most enjoyable Magic I've played in while.
It was awesome to get over 50ppl for this event. I drove 5hrs to get out there and I thought it was well worth it, so anyone that lived closer than me really missed out on a great time.
I'll see you all at the next one.

I'd love to read a tournament report from the 3rd place Dredge player and Paul. Either of you have any intention of writing one?
