He did have some wins off the back of platinum angel though)<br />round 5: Burn (he had lost to Rob earlier and was dismayed to find out I was playing the same deck.)<br /><br />I didn't lose a single game.<br />I definitely felt like me and rob were playing a tier one deck in a room full of non-tier-decks. (the only ones with potential were stu's and the destructive force deck)<br />Fortunately for me, Rob has messy handwriting and when he gave me the decklist I had misread seaside citadel as sunpetal grove. This did actually help me though, as it means that if you play for it, your 3rd land drop doesn't come into play tapped very often at all - which is great for casting rafiq.<br />My sideboard was path, master of the wild hunt, meddling mage.Sebnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568665987246432371.post-38983305364945401972010-08-24T15:04:13.212+01:002010-08-24T15:04:13.212+01:00Emerge Unscathed only targets creatures you contro...Emerge Unscathed only targets creatures you control, Vines gives you game against Polymorph. I think the Bant sideboard should be Path, Dauntless Escort and Meddling Mage.Wagzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03988009443558009068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568665987246432371.post-67370707308579703902010-08-23T18:33:36.856+01:002010-08-23T18:33:36.856+01:00this seems like a very fun format, would love to t...this seems like a very fun format, would love to try it at WNM :)Kennynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568665987246432371.post-66222652563862627952010-08-23T18:11:13.678+01:002010-08-23T18:11:13.678+01:00gratz to you and Seb!

It's nice to feel like I won an event without even playing in it ;) <br />I talked to Ste Porrit about the deck a bit afterwards and he suggested adding Emerge unscathed as a similar counterspell like vines only giving situational unblockability instead of +4/+4. It's odd that im still thinking about this format.Micknoreply@blogger.com
