belcher made t8 by wining the die roll against me and then i procede to crap out with stax shortly after ending up 4-3 after being 4-0.

Did you topdeck Sphere of Law in round 1 against Goblins? You ruined my day...hahaha.

Slops:
1U enchant creatures that look horribly on paper but blow you out

Explain?

1U

Enchant Creature

controlling player Pay this creatures casting cost at the beginning of their upkeep or sacrifice it

Not fun when that comes down the turn after a seething song to get it into play :(

I'm either blind or are these to be posted later?

Your not, we need a day or two to get them up, we were obviously slammed today with people and are still learning how to use the new software. Sunday evening or early afternoon Monday at the latest. We should have video coverage of 5 rounds of swiss and 3.5 top 8 matches.

I only played pendrell flux as a filler for the sideboard, but i might just keep it in now :)

[pokezel]

I'm the belcher player from top 8.

I top 8'd because I've been playing the deck for a long time and know my matchups. Granted, anyone in top 8 needs to draw well in more than one game to get there. My matchups were Goblins, Merfolk, Tempo Thresh, Stax, G/W survival, and then I double drew into top 8 because I was undefeated. I lost in round one of top 8 to force of will because that's what should happen most of the time.

stax guy - Sorry you're bitter about our match, I thought it was a good one. You did though, however, say you needed to mull into turn 1 trinishpere in order to beat me.

If anyone has questions about my matchups or the tourney, feel free to post or PM me.

- Ethan

Hey Eli, I hate to be like this, but when I got home I discovered one of the trops I got for my prize is ripped on the right side... I wouldn't care that much, except nobody mentioned that one was in such poor condition, and I was hoping to sell them and now I feel like I can't get nearly as much for them as I could have. I probably would have chosen the volcanics if I'd known since I still only have 2 of those.

Anyway, here's some pictures of it.

I'd like to request to be able to trade this back for a non-ripped one when I come to the April 10th tournament, but I'll understand if you say no.

Thanks either way.

I wouldn't say no to that request. I didn't even realize it was ripped and I apologize. If you are ok with waiting until the tournament on the 10th we can do that or if you would prefer sooner we can mail you new ones or a monetary amount you are hoping to get for the tropical islands in exchange for the cards. Your decision, let me know. We will also cover the postage cost of mailing the trops back in if that's what you decide.

[hungryLIKEALION]

Thank you very much. I'm willing to wait until April 10th, but I have to say I really appreciate this. I'm pretty sure most TOs would just say it was given as is. You really are like the best TO ever. :)

[JonBarber]

Charbelcher? Fuck. Was nobody playing FoW? Is that Top8 in order or was there a massive split?

If there is one person who could pilot Belcher to a top 8, its Ethan. Upon building the deck he actually sold his soul to satan.

Oh my god, my feature match was pitiful. I'm almost happy mine isn't up yet. Mulligan to five with Belcher when your opponent has Daze and Force. :D

pokezel: I'm not bitter about our match, i'm annoyed that I didn't make prizes after being 4-1 in round 5. oh well... next time...
