So they banned Splinter Twin in order to change the meta for the pro tour and generate some hype. LOL.

Splinter twin is a 2 card win on turn 4

It should have been banned a long time ago

I think their explination that kiki-jiki, mirror breaker is good enough to replace twin is complete BS tho

Wizards makes no money on the secondary market. Twin isn't as easy at pestermite/exarch + twin you have to respect your oponent and what they have available to combat your game plan. That being said when a deck performs so well consistently and other decks have to build around a certain deck the information can become stale. Personally ton is going to be hated ob so hard in this protour I wouldn't be suprised to not see it in the top 8. If I had to pick three top tier decks they would be as follows: coco, affinity, jeskia control will kiki. Other decks that will perform well or will show up in large numbers are burn,tron,merfolk,eldrazi. My underdog pick however would have to be tokens

Gents, is there anywhere the tags current standings? It's getting close to the top 8 cut right? Also I have missed a few of the latest matches so will check the links thread to see if I can pick up.

I was planning to just blast Firecraft when I untapped, Fleshbag didn't cross my mind as "direct damage". Fail. Then the misplay with mana tapping in game three just put me in full-blown tilt mode.

Barney loses 0-2 to peepie

1st game was a blowout.

2nd game was a comedy of errors. I had lethal and played a tapland instead of foundry which would have had the Nalaars winning me the game. Instead they died and Chandra is an orphan again. Serves her right. But peepee made mistakes too so I should have been dead earlier. Was a fun match. I was tilted a little from being in a party with him. My mistake.

Seems like there are quite the players where the last round will matter! Me, Hakeem, Mobius, Barney, Beast.... and probably some more, all 2 wins and 2 losses....

The comedy was all on the other end of the table. The unfortunate watchers of peepy's twitch feed were overexposed to it. I thought I wanted to strangle that guy.

Yander just doesn't get me or know i like a goode choke. Everyone else was having a hoot ;). Stupid game made me sac a scion for one of my spells when I didn't need to. It also tapped the wrong mana lame lame lame. I'll need to pay more attention next time.

There are 5 people who have a high chance at top 8 already. This leaves 3 spots remaining which are open to the 3 matchups next round...yourself included.
