2-0 over ThePeavstenator. Thanks for being a sport while I slowly fumbled my way through xmage controls! G2 dragged way longer than it was supposed to because I fetched the wrong basic at the start :doh:

To answer your question, yeah I run 4 Wastelands. I just pretty much needed to get a Phyrexian Revoker, Recruiter to find Revoker, or a Pithing Needle out and turn off Food Chain. Eternal Scourge is a pain in the rear end and it made me want an equipment that let me trample after losing G1 despite a Mirran Crusader that had Jitte and Sword of Fire and Ice on it.

I would advise against this. Unless you're in paper and your opponent is bad, then have at it!

as a food chain player I highly recommend my opponents play pithing needle and name Food Chain

But it's still a legal name! And if your opponent is bad and doesn't know how cards work maybe they'll stop using it. It worked for me in modern once with Mox Opal.

I always forget that Pithing Needle has that one slight difference from Revoker

Ah okay. Just unlucky on not drawing it. I was kicking myself after realising Karakas could bounce your Thalia in response to Walking Ballista.

Also why did you put Sanctum Prelate on 4 (I think G2)?

Edit: Just realised you might need another dude on the board and everything in your deck costs 1-3,5

Eldrazi loses again, this time to Lands, because of a bad pilot of the deck land denial. I still didn't think I'd need Wastes, and now for a second time I've been proven wrong.

Also, thank you little munchkin for being patient with me while I play slowly, as I played with one hand and held a mostly screaming 6 week old in my left arm.

Condolences. In the first legacy goon league I had the pleasure of playing RUG Delver against Death and Taxes while holding my ~2-month-old who hadn't yet gotten used to being home alone with me while my wife was at work. It was unpleasant. Luckily I drew Sulfur Elemental and 2 lands in game 3 so it was over pretty quick.

I defeated Johnny Five-Jaces 2-0.

Worth noting he was a true gentleman and at the beginning of game 2 when my xmage bugged out he remade the match and we started the game over.
