      On April 10th, 25 players convened on my local gaming store to do battle! We even had a few come down from Oklahoma with as much as a 3 hour drive.

      This is the first in what we hope to be a LONG line of events. Every Release weekend we will be gathering together to battle with our latest creations fresh off WotC's changes to the B&R list.

        @infant_no_1 I love that infect top 8ed in this tourney. That is really cool.

        I like to express the id that a player would feel without the superego of being like, "oh you have to be nice."

          Every time Greg brings Infect, none of his opponents respect the deck and he goes pretty deep.

                I dunno about respect... but infect is no joke. It just LOOKS like one... then you're dead.

                  UW Delver Mentor? I wrote "Eldrazi" on my decklist, though.

                    Whoever copied the lists must not have read them very closely. My Oath list was designed by the illustrious Roy Spires, famous DFW area player.

                      I just thought you couldn't spell delver correctly.

                      Roy prefers his fame be more low-key.
