Following the success of our first MTGO BYOS tournament I'm starting another.
Everyone is welcome to play regardless of whether you played in the first one or not.
To sign up just post in this thread. Deck lists should be submitted to [e-mail] by Monday 10th December.

Rules
This competition is MTGO-based. You must have your deck built on MTGO. The banned list is set in such a way to make the construction of MTGO decks very cheap (anything 1 tix or over is banned). Anyone is welcome to enter.

Entry
FREE

Format
Decks must contain a minimum of sixty cards. There is no maximum deck size. If a player wishes to use a sideboard, it must contain exactly fifteen cards. With the exception of basic land cards, a player’s combined deck and sideboard may not contain more than four of any individual card, counted by its English card title equivalent. All cards named Plains, Island, Swamp, Mountain, and Forest are basic.

The following card sets are permitted in this tournament:

The banned list should be complete but please do ask if there seems to be a mistake.  Note the weird wrinkle that Shivan Reef is banned but all the other Tenth Edition painlands are legal.

[Simon O'Keeffe]

Count me in!

[Nick Lovett]

oh go on then!

[Josh Tovell]

innnnn.

[Paul Hodgson]

In!

[Simon O'Keeffe]

After my first cursory pass through the cards, this seems much tougher than last time. Lots of possible decks, but not quite as focused as BYOS1. Should be interesting!

[Louis Mackie]

[Kieran Symington]

I'm in - though I still see far too many counters for my combo deck to ever be good...

[Josh Tovell]

power level seems a lot lower this time around, which should make for some better games. i don't see any Blastoderm/Oversoul of Dusk-type cards that are miserable to play against, nor any -*-*-unbeatable-*-*- hosers.

[Josh Tovell]

i've built a deck, lmk if anyone wants to jam some games tonight.

[Nick Lovett]

So not worried about Calciderm then? :P
