So this legacy Eldrazi deck (+ 1 Strip Mine) went 6-1-1 at a recent NYC vintage tournament: https://twitter.com/JMJACO/status/739256500061868032

I guess I really need to finish building it.

Those leylines of the void are freaking awesome.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOYSZSn7-jE is one of my favorites.

And I'm biased because Greg is a local player, but drat did he just tear his way through SCG St Loius in 14.

Anyone play legacy or vintage in Chicago? I know mtg cardmarket is there and they run events, but didn't know if anyone else knew some other cool spots to check out

Hotsauce Games in Westmont does legacy on monday nights, and Pastimes in Niles used to have monthly vintage and legacy but I don't see anything on their event calendar. But in Chicago proper I do not know.

Oh I know. There's always something to be said for having near perfect mana all the time like you'll get in a dedicated 2 color deck as well. I imagine you'd play both Lilianas but the new one and flayer work really well together. I really want to try the new Liliana more in modern, being able to recurr value creatures and having extra card advantage in black seems great.

Also curious if Distended Mindbender could get used in modern. Saccing a finks or something similar (mono black with geralfs messenger maybe) to get a 5/5 and double duress on turn 4 seems good, don't know if it's worth the effort in modern though.

It saw play in a company deck sideboard on camera at the syracuse open. Absolutely destroyed the tron player he was facing.

But it's already a well established reason for banning. Top was already banned in two other formats for this reason. Do I think they NEEDED to ban Top? No. Can I see why they did it? Yeah. It's not the worst decision they've made.

This showed up at WotC today:
