Beacon of Tomorrows stands out too much. It's like the contestant who thinks he knows everything, but everyone hates. It'll get voted off pretty quickly IMO. Cloud Key seems like a good, safe bet.
i disagree but i'll take your word for it
My PR went all right. I won three packs in Sealed, going 2-1-1, and three packs in Draft, going 2-1. I also opened an Elspeth, Knight Errant (which I misplayed FTL in my third round) in Sealed, which I should be able to sell for $20.
well that's not bad certinly better then my pr any way
To elaborate, my computer cable broke, and I don't want to pay $50 to order a replacement, so I've been focusing on work and school for now.
this is another thing that s****
Sorry, guys. It's another one of those weeks. I'll try to catch up over the weekend.

Anyways, I just got back from FNM, it was draft, there was 28 players there and I ended up going 3-1 and got 5th place missing the top 4 on tiebreakers >.>.
I'm tired now, but I will post the deck I used tomorrow.....but OMG domain is so broken in draft.
I lost water this morning, and it apparently won't (I'd say "can't", but I know better. >.>) be fixed until the thaw. I had to jerry-rig my own damnable shower this morning by boiling snow.
Anyway, I don't like Cloud Key at all for the contests, but then, I'm only looking toward the second contest...
I'll be back to piss and moan about lack of water on Monday (actually, I could just hijack my neighbors' water... :sneaky:), and might be around for another hour or so today...

I played a wuBR deck with all sorts of unearthing dudes, and some decent removal. I think I ended up getting third (good enough to have nice picks, but not good enough to get me an FNM foil >.>), and played some Block constructed--although I don't know why, there aren't any Block PTQs or anything coming up any time soon...

Same difference really, I rarely go to real FNMs, my usual jaunt is a Park & Rec. center that one of us manages, so we all get together there on Friday Nights and play... Magic (F-N-M).
Edit: Sarnathing HairyStax!
I like SCC (but I had to play SSC because of the real FNM :().

It does matter Ravus, because I get double the points for winning to help my piss poor limited rating :argh:.
We played SCC, I would have prefered SSC, but eh it was fun anyways.
Constructed: 1686
Eternal: 1586 (Take in mind it was like 1500 before I got my current Legacy deck built {my old one was well bad :sweat:})
Limited: 1717
Total: 1743
Composite: 1701
Also this doesn't take into consideration my 3-0-1 sealed performance at the release today.
Speaking of release events, how was everybody's?
Finally here are the top 20 composite ratings in the world:
Constructed: 1686
Eternal: 1586 (Take in mind it was like 1500 before I got my current Legacy deck built {my old one was well bad :sweat:})
Limited: 1717
Total: 1743
Composite: 1701
Also this doesn't take into consideration my 3-0-1 sealed performance at the release today.
My ratings are:
Composite
1672 rating
Constructed
1737
Eternal
1610
Limited
1607
Total
1744
My limited rating should be higher than that because I am really good at it (although almost all the limited events I play in aren't sanctioned although the event I played in Friday was where I went 3-1 so it should go up).
My eternal rating was 1497 at lowest :sweat:. But I became really good at the format and brought it back above the 1600 mark and then the store stopped having Legacy events/closed :(.
My Standard rating is about where it should be. Would be higher if I played in more tournaments :sweat:.
My goals for 2009 magic wise is to bring my limited rating above 1700 and my constructed rating about 1800.
Get my Limited rating to 1800. (Tough, but doable)
Get my Eternal rating to 1600 (Not that hard given I'm almost there).
I don't really play standard or extended, so my Constructed rating is meh to me. But I guess it would be nice to get it above 1700.
i disagree but i'll take your word for it
well that's not bad certinly better then my pr any way

Yes, I splashed for Exploding Borders, which was amazing all night. And the lone swamp was in there for domain :evillol:.
The pro bears were awesome, but the mvp all night was definitely Jhessian Infiltrator, it even helped me win through an Elspeth ^_^;.
I played a wuBR deck with all sorts of unearthing dudes, and some decent removal. I think I ended up getting third (good enough to have nice picks, but not good enough to get me an FNM foil >.>), and played some Block constructed--although I don't know why, there aren't any Block PTQs or anything coming up any time soon...
It wasn't actually FNM persay. I just called it that because well.....it was on Friday night ^_^;.
(If your wondering why it matters, the tournament last night was k16 instead of the usually FNM k8.)
But it seems like five color and Esper gained the most.
Edit: Sarnathing HairyStax!
I like SCC (but I had to play SSC because of the real FNM :().
Five Color and Exalted(Esper) did indeed gain the most, its what the top tables were running.
It does matter Ravus, because I get double the points for winning to help my piss poor limited rating :argh:.
We played SCC, I would have prefered SSC, but eh it was fun anyways.
Pretend i said exactly the same thing
Havent played magic in ages, life is far too busy. Sport has become more important (No, magic is not a sport.)
Hope you all are well
Been busy with drama and stuff. Plus packing for my trip. I leave on Thursday.
I'll try to post more tomorrow.

Anyway I'm so tired of drama like seriously. People need to grow up. >_<
Sorry I'm noobish about the ratings but I don't have a DCI number. I probably never will either. D:

I didn't get to go.
I had gotten grounded like a day before. :-(
And as for ratings......I'll leave mine unsaid. I probably should get a new DCI.

I was thinking that myself before I checked my ratings this morning.
I can agree with this.
The Izzet
Well...I haven't played a sanctioned(?) event in about 3-4 years. So it should not have changed.
and as for drama? Online(:rofl: )? Or Real-life?
Semi-Retired EDH: Saffi Infinite Combo | Grenzo Mono-Red Aggro

Eternal: 1804
Limited: 1637
Well, I'm decent at Constructed, And I play a ton of Eternal seeing as more and more sanctioned tournaments pop up every month or so.
And Im just okay at Limited, I can draft a winning deck, I'm just too lazy.
So hows it in the World of The Izzet?
Anyway. Epic video ever.
