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.

We are also going to be setting up streaming at the next event, look for announcements closer to the release of Eldritch Moon.

@mailorderbees said:

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

I just thought you couldn't spell delver correctly.

@GHitchHiker said:

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.

Roy prefers his fame be more low-key.

Starts at 1:00.

I'm always up for games if you see me on during the week hit me up! I almost always play the daily on Friday and Saturday @ 8:30 central.

On July 23rd we had 18 people join us for an afternoon of Vintage, broken plays, and friendship!

After 5 rounds of swiss we had our top 8.

David Carroll - Standstill
Justin Hrala - Oath
Shawn Hughes - Eldrazi (playing in his first Vintage event ever & beating me in Round 1 of the Swiss)
William Buck - Merfolk (I think this was his first Vintage as well)
John Hessler - Hate Bears
Tom Andrews - Oath
Josh McCurley - 2-Card Monty (Hey, that's me!)
Mike Ames - Lantern Control

David wins over Mike
Justin beat me quite handily
Shawn beat Tom (fixed if you saw the previous version)
Will beat John in 3

At this point everyone split and went home.

@fsecco and @thecravenone are both correct here.

If a player names "Academy" with a Phyrexian Revoker that player has not named a legal Magic card. They MUST clarify at any REL whether at the prompting of their opponent or by calling a judge.
If they name Tolarian Academy - that is not a legal card name for Phyrexian Revoker. If they name Tolarian Academy, they get to rename to a legal card which is any non-land card legal in VIntage.

One thing to make sure of, is to make sure to never let your opponent break a rule.

If you have any follow-up questions, I am a Level 2 judge so just ping me on this thread.

I think that Mana Drain would have to be in EMA2. I don't think they would want to put FOW and Mana Drain as mythics in the same set.

@Aelien said in Vintage @Youtube & @Twitch:

Hey! That's me! I stream every Friday, with the occasional P9 Challenge.

I'll be streaming these decks starting with Craig's Zacama Oath on tonight's stream. Then I'll be doing one per stream until I get to Ben's list.
Unfortunately Oath hates me so I expect no success tonight.

I'm in Dallas & could probably bring 3 people depending on when it is. Saturdays would be rough as I and one of the others both work on Saturdays.

I really wish these were not held on Saturdays. I have to work on Saturdays. Otherwise I would be there with a car load of folks.

Thanks for typing this up Jon. This event was super fun, makes me look forward to EW even more.

This is really exciting. I think that this will bring more players into vintage on MTGO. I have several friends who can't make the dailies, but can do random times.
And there are a lot of names I see playing Vintage but they never join the dailies.

Nice. Glad to see someone else coming from OK to battle. I am pretty damn excited about this.

Starts at 1:00.

Anyone else going to this?

I considered it, but chose to try it this way. I think next time I may run them main & see what happens.
