No need, we'll proceed forward unless you can play group C in the next few hours since group C is still open, I don't think 3rd place will change but 1st and 2nd are 2 points apart so one more score would be nice. If you can play it in the next few hours I'll wait.

I was going to test for round one, and was planning to do so either later today or early tomorrow. Didn't the deadline go till the 19th? I was planning to test on the weekend because it's completely impossible for me to do it during the week.

I'm a bit disappointed in how my fish deck fared. I thought I had figured out a working decklist for once, but seemingly the AI wasn't any good using Merrow Reejerey and Boomerang. Like we've often seen, the trouble isn't beating the AI decks but getting AI to beat a player with your deck.

Merrow Reejerey'S tapping ability is a key element to your deck Shantak,but AI 99% makes a bad choice,tapping his own creatures,lands,rarely opponents lands,even more rarely opponents creatures!!

The first deck I built for this tourney revolved around several creatures with cycling and living death. I also tossed in Avalanche Riders and Fulminator Mage to be extra mean.

Needless to say the AI didn't get it.

I think this tournament is the multiwinner AI tournament.I think all decks and all players lost at least 1game,and some of us lost matches too! =D>

That was the whole idea behind the format so we could have competitive decks.

Jatill, Salbei, Thedrigo and Shantak haven't lost any matches in the group stage. Nicdanger is currently undefeated in group D. Of course, I mean by the AI.

Shoot, I was hoping to avoid Salbei.

I think nobody wanted you or Salbei but it will be a close match.

Whow, didn´t think the deck would come this far without Progenitus.

Couldn´t find anything about rewards at the initial post and won´t be around for the next couple days, so this would be my "wishlist" just in case :D

(pick the easier ones,no particular order).

Karn, Silver Golem / Chalice of the Void(uncodeable)
Mystical Teachings / Counterbalance (uncodeable)
Vengevine / Food Chain
Auriok Salvagers / Cataclysm
Jaya Ballard, Task Mage / Dwarven Miner
Mortivore / Mirri the Cursed

I think turn 3 Emrakul is more than enough in this format.

I'm happy with Jaya Ballard, Task Mage. Second choice Dwarven Miner.

It's going to be Dwarven Blastminer instead. Hope nobody minds, since it's strictly superior.
