Fear not everyone I won't be weilding LeyObey but I will bring yet another homebrew. Heck it may be boatbrew since its good in standard and extended.

Do it, Ranger of Eos is pretty hard to stop with Counterbalance, but the creatures it fetches are...

[The Grid Games]

Just 3 days left, is everyone gonna be here?

[rockout]

WTB Saturday Legacy.

[Joe_C]

3 1/2 hours left...... I'm looking forward to this!

[rockout]

Ugh...someone drive me to this thing...

[rockout]

results? There were 17 players. The meta was ichorid x 3, Quinn, Landstill, Root Maze UWg Control, Goyf Sligh x 2, Merfolk, Survival Elves, Leyline + Helm +show and tell progenitus Combo (Way to predict the meta paul), Rockish Eva Green, Red Thresh, White Thresh (me scrubbington misiaszek), NLU (all I saw was goyf and confidant) I think and I'm missing 2 other decks.

[mtglordtom24]

Paul told me that he won and that he played against all three Dredge decks.

[Iamfishman]

I own 30 copies of Helm of Obedience.

A win for Paul is a win for me!

[mtglordtom24]

How many Grindstones did you have when Shadowmoor was released?

[Unknown13]

Paul told me that he won and that he played against all three Dredge decks.

Is he seriously bragging about splitting a 17 man event?

[rockout]

Wow, Main deck Leyline versus a field of Ichorid. Too much of the homosexual variety to even be worth reporting.

Wow, Main deck Leyline versus a field of Ichorid. Too much of the homosexual variety to even be worth reporting.

Tell me about it. I'm bringing the anti-leyline-of-the-void-helm-of-obedience-with-show-and-tell-progenitus-combo deck next time. Tit for tat.

Congrats Matt McNally and Paul.

Jeff Kowalczyk, what're you doing man? Chris Victor Top 4's and you don't? I'm dissapointed.

[Lando]

Jeff is terrible. That is all.

[Unknown13]

Jeff is terrible. That is all.

True Story.

Thanks for throwing a great event despite a weak turnout Karl. Definitely be back when possible.

[mtglordtom24]

Jeff is terrible. That is all.

I don't see your name in that Top 8... Did you go?

[mtglordtom24]

Hey everyone, sorry for the DP and all, but this is unrelated to how much Corey and Jeff suck.

A friend of mine who was playing Standard at the Grid on Sunday lost an EDH deck, and I was just wondering if anyone accidentally picked it up or saw it. I don't think it was stolen, but if it was, that would suck, as I give you guys a lot of credit for being a good crowd. Anyways, it had Teneb, the Harvester as the general and there were Ravnica Duals, Wrath of God, Damnation, etc. in there and my friend would really like it back. It was in a white cardboard box with "EDH" written in marker on the side. If you happen to know anything, if you could PM me, that'd be great.

[Joe_C]

If anyone knows Jeffrey Kowalczyk please ask him to mail me the cards I was so very kind enough to loan him for his deck. It has been a week and I have not received them. Not like it was a lot of money in cards, but it is the respect for fellow players that would make me think he would be reasonable enough to return them to me in a timely manner for the cost of a stamp

[rockout]

I have your krosan grip joe. You'll probably never see it again. Muahahaha
