I'll be there and I'm looking to play Legacy. I'm going to need to borrow some cards too.
As things stand now I'm the only guy in my car, driving down. Is anyone from Long Island looking for a ride down to this? I'd like to meet up in Nassau.

I'm still looking for people from the Long Island area looking to attend. Anyone? I'll drive down solo, but splitting gas/tolls is always cool...

I'll be there unless I have to work the YCS on Saturday.
(Spoiler alert: I hope I don't. I know nothing about Yugs, except to watch your bags three times as much as you do at a big Magic event.)
(Spoiler alert: I'll probably be playing Legacy.)

My youngest brother graduates from college tomorrow. Tried to get out of it, then he stuck me with distributing the tickets to the rest of my family (It's like he KNEW!) for the ceremony. I failed. Hope to be at the next one though! Good luck to all who do attend!

Josh Potucek beat Seth Levy in the finals if anyone wants to know.
Believe the top 8 was:
Nick D vs Tom D - Nick D wins
John Jones vs Mickey Mahr - John Jones wins
Seth Levy vs Shawn Griffiths - Seth Levy wins
Josh Potucek vs Matt Elias - Josh Potucek wins
Nick D vs Seth Levy - Seth Levy wins
Josh Potucek vs John Jones - Josh Potucek wins
I got in there on Mono Blue Control:
4 force of will
3 mana drain
3 daze
2 mental misstep
2 flusterstorm
1 misdirection
1 mindbreak trap
1 magus of the unseen
1 delver of secrets
1 sower of temptation
3 snapcaster mage
4 standstill
2 jace, the mindsculptor
1 brainstorm
1 echoing truth
1 ancestral recall
4 stifle
1 time walk
2 steel sabotage
1 repeal
1 crucible of worlds
1 mox sapphire
1 black lotus
1 sol ring
4 wasteland
1 strip mine
4 mishra's factory
1 library of alexandria
5 island
2 misty rainforest
sb:
4 tormod's crypt
3 relic of progenitus
1 echoing truth
1 crucible of worlds
3 submerge
3 energy flux
Deck needs more Islands, for sure. At least 1, possible as many as 3. a 2 Island 1 fetch plan would be acceptable as well.

Eventually Nick will put up a TO report in the Results thread. He's been pretty busy at TDG and there was a big PTQ this weekend as well. It will likely be up in the next few days. |
