Reading events March / April

[David Lyford-Smith]

Hi guys.

Just a couple more events for y'all that're coming up at Reading.

First of all, as you probably all know already, there's a Nationals Qualifier this coming Sunday 21st.

The doors open 10AM for an 11 start.  Standard format, 1 in 8 players qualify, Comp REL.

I'll be the HJ and Brian Coval and Charlie Hurrell will FJ.

On April 11th, we have a 10-proxy Vintage tournament.  This will be the same times- 10 am doors, 11ish start- and the prizes include a FTV: Dragons for the winner : )  There's also a bad beat prize for the worst beating of the day ;)

Any questions, just post on the thread or drop me a line.

Take care,

~DL-S

Will you be doing metagame breakdown and decklists for either/both?


Also, boo to FTV dragons as prize - i won one of those already!

Shame i can't win any games of Magic though eh?

Also Tom, i believe you are also a member of the "never won a sanctioned vintage match" club?

Its only a matter of time before the Bears start crushing it.

In response to questions:

I'll be at the NQ so I'll definitely be doing a metagame breakdown. I'll probably right up the qualifying lists, as well as any other interesting ones.

I'm not sure if I can make Vintage, but I'll see what I can do!

Cheers, Dave, that would be great - as you may have seen Glenn Goldsworthy post, there was some real confusion as to which archetypes qualified in S'oton, think some people were spreading rumours for jokes!
