Well I'll likely only have my Commander deck at Gencon, so if you want to play duels, bring multiple decks.

Understood.

I went 6-7 versus my nemesis today.

You do understand why speed decks ultimately are just no fun for either player?

Not sure what ya mean by speed decks but I build all mine with the intention of arriving at a win condition in as few turns as possible. I always have fun and my opponents are hanging out with Matt so they have to be having fun.

Deckmasterin is a huge math battle you have with yourself and it's really pleasing to see it work out with speed. When I figure out how to win in 0-3 turns in standard I'll be having even more fun.

I'm hooked on competitive games (Street Fighter, WoW PVP, DDR, etc. (Probably why MTG drew me in fast)) and it's always about beating the shit out of the other guy fast.

Strangely enough in traditional games like basketball and table tennis I prefer a prolonged, close game. 21-0 would ultimately not be fun for either player.

Yah, everything can be fun, but the slow decks have more fun potential (and more grief potential).

I went 2. in the prerelease today out of 36 players. Only game I lost was the final.
In the first six rounds I played a strictly mediocre BG deck, but I played it well AND was insanely lucky. In the ensuing final draft I made a pretty good UW control deck. Play of the day was a Mind Control on a Thran Golem. No pics, because I suck.
Switched my prize for a discount on the commander decks...

I went 2-2 and got to play both the people I brought. Did you get a shiny vampire at yours too?






And when I got home there was some mad LARP going on in the park across the street. I was too scared to get closer so I 4X zoomed and ran away.

I got my vampire, yes. Too bad bloodthirst doesn't stack.
Thanks for pics. That's a pretty sad room. And where are the mandatory pony tails?

Ha, that's pretty embarassing for the judge at my tournament. For the record, I initially thought it stacked.

Sad like the people playing, or the room itself? It's in a masonic temple.

Getting ready to head to the midnight M12 release. Gotta get my fix of that Garruk's Horde mix.

It was a cube draft. My musclehead friend Tim I brought kicked some ass with the black red deck he made. I made a black red also and got my ass kicked. On the last pack I got first pick and it was Chandra The Firebrand so it made me stupid.

I mean who the fuck uses two copies of Goblin Bangchuckers? Stupid people is who

Yeah, that's probably a bad idea. I would generally not recommend playing red M12. It's too fickle.

But hey, Chandra. She's HOT! *nerd rimshot*
