lol 7 people PTQs

yeah that is impressive

I think I get 1 more shot to qualify for San Diego

Plane and train tickets to play wow. Haha. I guess I've probably spent more than that (sigh) on mtgo tickets over the years but that sir is commitment.

i won the magic online ptq qualifier today. it was a tough grind, 10 rounds of swiss cut to top eight draft. i opened a really good br deck. and drafted ub aggro in top eight

your 2p2 username accurately describes the modo PTQs

congratulations!

I buy ticket at .95 (negotiable) via stars or paypal if anyone is interested, only people with a reputation please. If you can proof me that you are legit on ebay or some stuff like that , thats cool.

Nice!

Feel free to post your winning deck(s) if you want.

Any ideas on Zendikar block decks? The format is basically vamps, UW control, and occasionally a boros/white wheenie/valakut or summoners trap decks. Mostly vamps and UW control tho. I was thinking of using nissa + river boa to take on the control decks. Add in some oracles, oran riefs, and round it out w/ another color. Maybe U?

i misbuilt my sealed deck some. i shoulve had bog tatters main for vamprie lacerator. could argue i should have 18 lands. but 10 round tourny have to get lucky to top eight so maybe wasnt a mistake. i boarded in the second grunts some it couldve been main too for sure. but ye i got a lot of removal and some sicko guys. hellkite mongrel is very good and quest for the gravelord. i started out 6-0 and then lost round 7 to some rw aggro draws then won next couple easy. top eight drafted a ub aggro deck. got first pick living tsunami and then got passed marsh casualties(big mistake, guy took a journey to nowhere over it. we actualy beat him round 1 and he made a facebook post saying he got unlucky to lose. lol.) got some welking terns and removal. deck was very solid and we didnt drop a game in top eight. san diego should be a lot of fun. i like the unearth dec a lot so far

What are the thoughts on this deck?

It beats Jund a high % of the time, as well as Boros a somewhat decent %, I haven't tested against mill yet.

I've played a different version of the spreading seas deck and its fun but a bit too janky. Its especially bad if you're on the draw and you don't have a mirage/seas for your turn 2. Seems more like a fun deck than a tier 1 competitive deck.

looking for around 40 modo tix. i have stars/ftp, i'll pay .95/ticket.

Did Rob even do well in standard? That deck looks atrociously bad imo.

Had some fun drafting Zen in the last few weeks, but I am still always left feeling unsatisfied with what you get for your money.

When is a company going to come out with a compelling online TCG type game with a subscription model or something that is more reasonable than needing $14 worth of product to enter a 1-3 hour draft?

Yea, I think it's missing a piece or two before It makes a bigger jump.

3-3

lawl

Yeah I mean I hear Soul Warden is pretty good. So is mulliganing.

lol, won a draft with 13 creatures, weighing in with a combined power of 20, counting the raptors as 2/2's (no other allies).

Game Report - All rounds:
First turn - Kraken Hatchling (this guy is awesome in this format)
Next-to-last turn - Conquerors Pledge
Last turn - Bold Defense

The pile itself:

FAdsgsdh that combo is how I went 0-2 in the PTQ last weekend

how much is lotus cobra worth? also, when i played mtgo a few years ago there was an auction room and you could get better value for your cards. does this still exist?

no, only marketplace
