Weren't all three of the ones that tied introduced for this season?

To be honest i would rather have just taken the losing votes out and had a fresh poll up for like a day. Consolidate the votes for the losing sides into the "winners" and see where it ended up.

This was a special case to avoid making the No Repeats list again later. Also, if it makes you happier, I could've just changed my votes to make it win anyway.

Speaking of which, there's a new poll up! :teach:

I mean...I had a second list building concurrent with the first one.

This is what the second list was at before No Repeats was announced as the winner of the poll


Although to be fair, I was going to attempt to put the three missing Moxen into decks between this round and next season's Vanilla Land round if No Repeats went around another time. :incognito:

Banning the rest of the moxen wouldn't have done much. This round is basically vanilla lite, and i would not consider them to be that worth it for any of the decks allowed.

Golgari has it 3-3 for our match, but I'm not seeing where I win. All I see is too many tokens to deal with starting a full turn before I get my Keeper out.

For thatmarkguy, even though we've agreed on the outcome

apparently it was a misunderstanding of the summoning sickness rule, redoing the math with that in mind leads to a 6-0 result in my favor

If your life total can't change, you can't pay life. Platinum Emperion is a good source of rulings for this.

If I understand the tiebreak stuff, thatmarkguy would appear to be the one who gets to choose for Vanilla Lands (he and I were tied for last). But none of the previous rounds have been officially closed yet, so...

4CM LR would be an obvious choice.

Now I'm kind of sad that I accidentally didn't participate in round 3 b/c I would have been in a good position to get a prize and now.... not so much. Didn't realize I was doing that well. Oh well. It means I don't have to try to play in the current abomination.

Edit: I realize that the game is low on players so if I had a good deck in mind I would still participate anyways but I have zero ideas in mind and zero inclination to come up with one and I don't see much point in just throwing something on the pyre to give everyone free points.
