I haven't heard from Lonely Bridge since I made this post on Monday. I can play tonight and I might have a chance at top 8 so I would prefer not to draw. Let me know, otherwise I'll let Steve lay down the ruling on our matchup.

Everyone make sure the last round's results are correct. I'll give you until Monday and then this is the official top 8. Do the usual. 8 v 1, 7 v 2, etc. High seed chooses play/draw.

Does anyone in the top 8 not have access to multiple decks?

If they don't, I apparently have won enough since v4 came out to buy into Legacy. I have ~100 tickets and am just waiting to buy Entreats/Cliques and sideboard cards for Miracles until they're either part of the weekly flashback stuff, or Eternal Masters gets announced, or I actually have time to play Legacy. If someone can't build a deck they want to play, I'll get the cards for it.

Also if nothing in the top 8 standings changes, DAD LOST MY IPOD, I'm going to be at the beach this week, travelling Sunday and leaving Thursday. Hit me up and we'll schedule something, I'll have a computer and plenty of time to do nothing.

I'm just trying to figure out the format for this. I was thinking something like people choose 3 decks and choose one to play for their top 8 match, kinda like how the VSL does it except it's only one match, then having the finals be best of 3 matches or something.

Looks like that won't work so everyone PM me their lists or email them to my name @ Gmail. I'll be posting them before you play your matches and you'll be playing them through the whole top 8. You can make any changes you want, including a different deck, from what you've played in the swiss.

Oh jeez, didn't even look at sideboards. I run two Flaring Pains because it makes any deck relying on CoP into a joke matchup. Both your sideboards are terrible though so good luck Fogs.

My opponent is too cowardly to challenge me, so I jammed a league with UB Teachings Combo. MBC, Tron, Tron, MBC, Delver. Lost to the second Tron, beat the other 3 easily, but this Delver match is still going but started nice. My opponent plays a Faerie Miscreant, holds up 2 mana on turn 2, plays a Ponder on turn 3 and holds up 2 mana, and I just don't walk into the Spellstutter Sprite. I end up building up to 4 mana, and passing the turn. My opponent plays their fourth land, and casts Ponder. I cast Diabolic Edict, and my opponent casts Spellstutter Sprite. In response, I Doom Blade their Miscreant. They don't have the Daze or Force Spike. I kill the Miscreant, Sprite resolves, and since they only have one Faerie, they're forced to target their own Ponder and counter it. God drat what a blowout. They then proceed to play a lot of lands and a maindeck Serrated Arrows but let's be honest, I'd already beaten my opponent's spirit.

Speaking of crushing people's hearts and dreams, Dad Ipod Man, I'm going to be online for most of Sunday and then if you let me know when you're available I can be on any time next week. Fight me.

Not terribly surprising, but at least game 2 I stayed alive a long time. I'm dumb for forgetting that matchup when sideboarding, considering I had CoP: Red in the board up until now. Also double curse of bloody heart is gross. GG's though.
