It's a good job we have those Diabolic tutors then

Usual 15-card sideboard I assume?

apologies but i wont be able to attend due to im house sitting that day looking after the dogs


i am gutted

thats right Kris

""Constructed decks must contain a minimum of sixty cards. There is no maximum deck size; however, you must be able to shuffle your deck with no assistance. If a player wishes to use a sideboard, it must contain exactly fifteen cards.""

im sorry to hear that Oli i think your deck would have gone far but this is the first of meny MTG tournament to be held at GG so there will be a next time


CWR

I am looking forward to this. Also, maybe you should be hosting Standard and Extended tournies too, on a regular basis? If so, I think that the Standard tournies should have a higher buy in, for the sole reason than most people WORK to get standard decks and it would get quite popular, resulting in even bigger prizes! Like maybe £4-6 buy-in. with the prize being £X + a booster or a rare or something.

im quite sure my deck would of gone far as well but due to not being able to make this it means i can put a few more spells into this deck to make it a bit faster

Dimir Cutpurse wants to steal your cupcakes :>

lol i saw a card today that made me lol

Ok the tournament will be starting at 6pm on Saturday the 12th

Excellent...now I just need to decide what deck to use...

im glad i cant attend in a way i am doing some major upgrades adding a few more infinite combos to my deck and adding something to deal with the milling issue that i had

its an idea i had from adams deck for a few cards im adding

6PM?! I might be able to go to a real tournament beforehand!

Liam do you have a MTG deck if not do you want to borrow one for the torunament?

Yeah, I got mah Sliv0rz.

coool i mite be sending my deck with somebody else being as i cant play im at GG tomorrow we shall have to have a 1 v 1

Urgh...M:TG deck construction is retarded ¬¬
Been at it for about an hour now, currently at 68 cards and not happy with the build. Doesn't appear to be drawing as necessary, gotta drop these 8 extra cards.

Sideboard is easy enough to figure out with what I've got to hand.

I'll be heading to KTG prior to showing up at the GG, so I should have a few people in tow with me.

Well that’s the first Magic tournament over, thanks to
every one that turned up and I hope you had fun.








The winning was Anthony Hulme.
