One of these day I have to get myself organizized.
Watching Tron's brutal consistency is not fun :(. Poor Kiki-Chord got Ugin'd on turn 4 both games. Looks like big mana decks are the thing to be doing.
And yet, SEVEN of the Top 8 are not big mana decks. BW Tokens, Naya Zoo, Abzan Company, Twin, Kiki Chord, Jund, and Grishoalbrand are nowhere close to those strategies.
Great... what a terrible ending for the zoo deck. Truth is its zoos literal worst matchup. It totally sucks it ran into it in the finals. It might have actually taken down the event if matchups were shifted around.
Oh well. I'm happy it made it into the top 8. Still showing its at least strong top 8 archtypes in modern.
I have a feeling he is going to just trounce it. Junk is much more susceptible to Blood Moon than Jund and he has a lot of answers to Lingering Souls. A lot of the matchup will be decided by whether the Junk player has access to and sees answers to Keranos.

It took forever for Goryos to go off and win that Abzan game, and it nearly beat itself. It's literally nothing like Amulet
*Edited for clarity*
Sucks for him but I really dislike that guy so I couldn't care less.
Oh I'm not saying it deserves a ban I'm only commenting on how the playerbase reacts to decks like it winning

Looks like he got the GL and then lost on T3 of the game he did get to play.
Jeff acts like a whiny, entitled brat often enough that its hard for me to be sympathetic towards him.
Ghost Quarter?
I though G-quarter was tapped?
BGW Junk / URB Grixis Shadow / RGB Lantern Control / WUBCBant Eldrazi
Current Legacy decks
BUG Shardless BUG / UWR Predict Miracles / RUG Canadian Thresh / WRBG 4c Loam
UB Reanimator
Yeah, big mistake, happens even with professionals on top 8 haha.
Fedders, I imagine there's a ton of fatigue in these long tournaments, it's easier to call out their bad plays when we aren't mentally burned out
