Sunday, Aug. 24 Tourney - 2 Blocks

Format for 8-24-14:

Chose any two Blocks from http://www.magic-league.com/guide/formats.php#Block 
of your choice.  Land must be from the Blocks you choose or be Basic.

You may for example chose to play the Kamigawa Block and the Tempest Block. If you do, you may play cards from Champions of Kamigawa, Betrayers of Kamigawa, Saviors of Kamigawa, Tempest, Stronghold and Exodus.

Let's keep these decks in Vintage, because some block cards are banned in Legacy.

NOTE: I stole this from Jello's tourney last Feb., because it looks like a fun way to explore blocks. Thanks Jello!

Congrats on your win. I guess I'll have to actually build a deck with the new client instead of just importing old ones. Maybe I'll have it done by Wednesday and be able to test it against ya.

Thanks Nite. I was hoping most people could just use an old modified standard deck for this one if they didn't want to start from scratch, so I hope you don't mind building a new one. I actually think deck building is what the new client does best, though I sometimes use the Decked Builder app as well. My first ideas for the format were very creative, but would have made everyone build a new deck, and I know this is a busy time of year for a lot of people.

Oh were used to usually building new ones for Sundays. I just haven't done it with the new client yet. It's hard for me not to be cursing while using it because I just see no reason to change it. There's not one thing I think that's done better. Anyway, your format choice is fine.

 

 

EDIT: There IS one thing that's better......I can curse in it and it doesn't get edited. I think they made it that way because they knew there needed to be a vent.

Actually that came through for me just fine, and I specifically sent them to seek out your car. You need to alter your profanity setting. I can't remember offhand where it is but it's the one thing that was easy to do. It's funny others can see what you wrote but it's set to stop you from offending yourself.

I'm not sure if i can make it this sunday because my new computer crashed.

Writing this on my old one but i'm not going to bother putting the new client on this one.

Got it back to the store so perhaps they can fix it in time.

Happy birthday Christel (seen that on facebook)cheeky

Well my computer is back and i think i've got one or two blockrelated decks somewhere.

The festival was great , seen a lot of bands and had a few beerslaugh

Have to limit the alcohol though cuz i was diagnosed having diabetis a few months back so i have to inject myself with 2 sorts of insuline.

Demmm the older i get the more i start falling apart.

O well , i'll have a beer on thatwink

oooooooo, sorry to hear about your diabetes.  Take good care of yourself and follow the rules!  And if you need a nurse, come visit me.  I don't know much about diabetes, but we could have some fun!
