So, err, what about this Pro Tour: San Juan, then?

What's the deck?

If I had thought about it earlier I'd've arranged a Block league or something.

Bit late for that now as we'll know the Pros decks in a few hours (or do they start on Friday?)

Get your answer in now and make yourself look awful clever tomorrow.

The only guy writing about it seems to be Rich Hagon: http://www.starcitygames.com/php/news/article/19402.html

Is UW Control going to rule on the basis that Wall of Omens, Treasure Hunt, Halimar Depths, Day of Judgment, Gideon Jura, Jace the Mindsculptor, Everflowing Chalice, Tectonic Edge, Celestial Colonnade and Sphinx of Jwar Isle are all in the Block?

Is there a Devastating Summons, Goblin Guide, Searing Blaze, Plated Geopede, ... red deck to act as a foil?
On MTGO the last four 4-0 decks in Daily Events were 2 RW Sparkmage/Collar aggro, Vampires and a craaaazy Eldrazi ramp thing: http://www.wizards.com/magic/digital/MagicOnlineTourn.aspx?x=mtg/di...
When I last played block it was before rise and the best deck was a G/R/U Ramp deck that played Jace and ramped into Avenger of Zendikar. Not sure how much this will have changed with Rise.

I predict Brad Nelson to Top 8 though.
It turns out it only starts tonight (5 hours behind us).

Meanwhile Vampires, RW and WG Eldrazi ramp continue to take down the Daily Events on MTGO. Plus one UW deck.
Cedric Phillips reads the MTGO "What's Happening" page too, it turns out.

Brad Nelson 7-1 with terrible tiebreakers in 13th.

Marco Orsini Jones 6-2 in 16th. Christian Bateman, Dan Gardner and Stephen Murray 5-3 and in Day 2.
I like Stephen Murray - I hope he does well.

If anyone hasn't noticed and is interested Chris and Marco's draft was the one in the draft viewer.
WOW how did this Chris guy get on the pro tour? He cant draft for shit.

I agree I don't like his draft- not sure why he didn't go white.
From that I can only assume that he was trying to force/ really likes UR. Could have had a nice UW deck I think.

Chris is a good player, he won the London PTQ to Q= usually one of the harder UK PTQs.

For reference he was also my howling mine opponent.

PV and Brad Nelson in Top 8.
Wooo PV!
That's basically an honorary DT top 8 right?
