I am starting a stream once Theros is live online. It will be in the vein of FNM hero. If you don't know what FNM hero is, here are some links http://www.starcitygames.com/article/26220_FNM-Hero-A-Hero-Is-Born.html, and John Medina. The gist of the challenge, is that you play for as long as you can in, at minimum, weekly tournaments on a strict budget. For me, I will be using magic online, 100 tix and at least 1 daily a week as my 'FNM'. If I make it to december, I will consider it is a grade of C. Survival until May will give me a letter grade of B, and if I can end May with more tix in the account than I started with, I will consider that a glorious success and give myself a grade of A+.
So TLDR for My goals:
Start with 100 tickets.
Play at least 1 daily every week until out of tickets.
Survive until May.
I am looking for advice on what is good for a stream. I have upgraded twitch chat, and mtgbot lined up already. I think most people prefer music, so I will start with music on the stream. Any advice on how to make a good overlay?
From a strategic standpoint, I am looking at doing block dailies. There is a cheap buy in, and it doesn't have the complexity that pauper has, making it easier to do well early.
Finally, the information on how to find me:

@ DeftJackal on twitter (but the best way to get a hold of me is likely my twitch account or pm on here)
STream Time: Uncertain -- First day will be October 1st though!
Draft Finished. We went 2-1 with UB splashing for Sentry of the Underworld and Heliod's emissary. Lost the finals to a RW heroic deck, due to a misplay by attacking with my Benthic Giant too early. Next week another theros sealed as we wait for theros block constructed to go live.
Done for the day. Tried to double queue and played super poorly as a result. Lost both a draft and the daily due to lack of practice with the double queue technique. Never Again!!
Finished the daily at 2-2. Lost to turn four stormbreaths. There was very little anger of the gods present though. which is a good sign. Also bought monoblack list.
