Glad one of us took it down

32 showed up

after 5 rounds of swiss

me (4th 3-0-2) Frank (5th 3-1-1) And Otwell (1st 4-1) made top 8

Otwell had to face frank in 1st match of top 8
I lost in top 4
and Frank took the finals easily with the best drafted deck as true conviction smashes his opponent.

There were actually 32 Mark. 1 more and it would have been 6 rounds

And thanks Mark, now one of you have to take next weeks

I am happy to have the 3 byes, but I think I am more happy that I don't have to spend more money trying to get them on Friday. Thanks again guys.

There is another GPT, not Friday though. Saturday up at Black Gold. There may be one at the Pre-Release. And there are the grinders, which I was referring too, the Friday before the GP.

Except that it's been reserved by either myself or Djinn already... We've got a feature match in the finals to attend.

There may be one at the Pre-Release.
Just so no one gets overly excited - I'd say the chances of this happening may be 1 in 100 ... but I have to try, don't I? If it happens, I'll be sure to post here ASAP.

Also, the places for top 8 Mark listed are incorrect. Pretty sure he was 5th, and I know I was 6th. Chris was 1st, playing it out in the last round to go 4-1.

Will be trying to list my draft deck off memory and post it.

In the draft I was sitting to the left of Mark Angle. I will try and recall the draft as best I can.

P1P1- Easy to remember, only card worth taking was Venser the Sojourner.

P1P2- There were 2 cards worth noting in this pack. Cerebral Eruption and Razor Hippogriff. Normally I would jump on the Eruption, but with my first pick already being 2 colors, I don't want to jump into a double color 3rd colored spell. Not to mention the synergy between Razor Hippogriff and Venser can be pretty freaking good.

P1P3- I remember this pack as being the first pack I might have sent a mixed signal (of which I don't care about for reasons I can explain if you like). There were no good white cards and the the blue cards consisted of Halt Order and Steady Progress. There were 2 really good red cards though, in Galvanic Blast and Arc Trail. At this point I am doing mental self high fives! I take the Arc Trail and pass the Blast to Zivi.

P1P4- Turn to Slag. Wasn't planning on playing it, but there was nothing else good in the pack really.

P1P5- I spread the cards out in my hands..and lo and behold REVOKE EXISTENCE! YES! White is open as well as red from my right.

I picked some late Kemba's Skyguards in this pack and thought to myself I am either RWu or UWr. I like this situation especially with white and red being seemingly so wide open in pack 3 for me. I figured my red would be cut off in pack 2 by passing the Blast, but figured I would be able to strengthen my artifact and white base. I am also hoping to snatch up some Horizon Spellbombs to help the possible 3 colors I may be going and maybe some Myrs.

P2P1- Nim Deathmantle. I remember there being an Iron Myr in this pack, but was hoping I would get passed some Myr as well and like Deathmantle in a slower deck.

Only other definite pick I remember from this pack was pick 3. Again, I spread the cards out in my hands and staring back at me is a Foil True Conviction.

I picked up my 2 Idols and the Glint Hawk in this pack as well as a Gold Myr and another later than expected Revoke Existence.

Pack 3 I pretty much took Horizon Spellbomb higher than usual, Disperse, Sky Eel School after the Silver Myr I took, Darksteel Sentinel and about 3 Barrage Ogres and a very late, like 11th pick Skyguard.

Here is my list that I played.

Venser the Sojourner
Revoke Existence x2
Glint Hawk
Glint Hawk Idol x2
Horizon Spellbomb
Razor Hippogriff
Arc Trail
Turn to Slag
Dispence Justice
Gold Myr
Silver Myr
True Conviction
Blade Tribe Beserkers
Disperse
Lumengrid Drake
Sky Eel School
Kemba's Skyguard x2
Nim Deathmantle
Darksteel Sentinel
Saberclaw Golem
Barrage Ogre
3 Island
5 Mountain
8 Plains
