1 Jace, the Mind Sculptor
4 Force of Will
1 Dig Through Time

4 Forbidden Orchard
2 Island
1 Library of Alexandria
4 Polluted Delta

1 Toxic Deluge
4 Leyline of the Void
1 Ravenous Trap

Going into the weekend, I was looking at the success of Eldrazi at NYSE, and decided I needed to tune my deck to take into account the existence of a deck that often ran 4 Containment Priest in the main. I settled on a hybrid of Omni Oath and Vault/Key Oath, with 4 Show and Tells, 1 Omniscience, and a 2/1 split of Griselbrand and Emrakul. In typical fashion, I didn't play against Eldrazi a single time on Friday and sided out the Omniscience in every game 2 and 3. As a result, I decided to move it to the sideboard in favor of bringing Yawgmoth's Will back into the main.

On Friday, I played against Landstill, Mentor, Shops (TKS), and Dredge. On Sunday, I played against Delver, Eldrazi, Belcher, Labman Oathstill, and Shops, losing to Belcher and Shops (TKS). I think I made a critical mistake in Game 2 against Shops that cost me the game when I might otherwise have gone on to win, but I'm happy with my play that weekend overall.

You can get an effective loupe very cheaply. I bought mine on Amazon. It has 40x magnification and a built-in LED light that also helps with testing opacity. It sells for less than $3. Amazon Link

That explains why I was sure I'd seen a picture of it from a different angle that I couldn't find anywhere.

@mickey.nobilis Noble Hierarch is in the OMA gallery "Prkchp’s Original MTG Art"

@themanasource I'll be sure to keep an eye out. You've been hunting for him for some time now, right? I had a similar experience with Kev looking for Bludgeon Brawl. The man does so many paintings he doesn't keep records of his sales. Hopefully it surfaces.

Defense Grid came back from framing the other day. I'm very please with how well it came out.

I hope we can get some more Vintage community representatives into the full season instead of more pros who dabble occasionally. As for decks, I hope to see more archetypes represented than VSL's usual Mentor/Shops/Storm Metagame such as Oath and Painter.

If I saw anyone at all playing with gem mint Beta power I'd be suspicious.

Very impressive that you were able to get your hands on the three in only a month. Hope the Island surfaces.

The one piece of art I want and can't find at the moment is Bludgeon Brawl (NPH) by Kev Walker. He sold it at some point in the past and doesn't keep records of his sales.

@Gumgod

That's a beautiful Time Walk. And I agree, we should probably keep proxy discussion to a separate thread.
