This tournament was devised by a friend of mine who was tired of our power decks and wanted an arena which featured deck building/alteration as the main feature.

The rules are simple start with a c15 precon deck (we each chose different ones because it is fun). After every round of play we may "buy" $5 worth of cards on one or two cards that we put into our deck replacing existing cards. It is use it or lose it if you are happy with your deck as is you don't get to accumulate money/changes (at least work on your mana base). The rounds consist of games of free for all matches because table politics are fun and so so salty. We get points for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th which accumulate over time. Eventually we will pick a tourny end date.

We started with the C-15 precon decks to get approximately even start. I favor creature heavy generals (Jarad, Trostani, Kaalia, Exava) and a mill deck for laughs and power matching (Lazav, and Yes I really liked RTR). But with this in mind I selected the UR precon deck, sieze control so that I could have a totally different pilot experience. I summarized my changes to the deck below suggestions, criticisms, internet hate is all appreciated.

4 player: 1st: 5 pts. 2nd: 3pts. 3rd: 3pts. 4th: 0 pts.

3 player: 1st: 5 pts. 2nd: 3pts. 3rd: 0 pts.

Results: 2nd, 2nd, Overall: 2nd place

So far still filabustering for 2nd place yay. Magebane armor did it's job I got to cast my cheap AOE removals while keeping a creature of my choice alive mizzix or charmbreaker devils for a near win. lightning grieves never came on curve (aka drew it on turn 100) so no comment. I am planning on removing lone revenant and broodbirth viper. So far my experience is by the time broodbirth hits the battlefield it is only useful as a blocker opponents generals are cheaper first strikey and usually bigger. So it sat there i got one card draw out of it with a on curve cast. Blustersquall I think is cool but it doesn't fit and i get value from it since it can buy me a turn. But given the option of two different cards I would have to say yes please.

In:Niv-Mizzet, the Firemindfoil, Shield of Kaldra Out: Blustersquall, Broodbirth Viper Cost: $4.76

why: SO! here is the interesting part about the build structure of this format if I added a combo Enter the Infinite + Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind (which synergizes with Psychosis Crawler) I only use $2 and the following round I can't do Alhammarret's Archive + Shield of Kaldra for $6. So I need to compromise I am adding only one win con/controlly thing Niv-Mizzet, the Firemindfoil. I am also going to add Shield of Kaldra because this deck has some solid creatures that are so easy to remove either with your cheap aoe or opponent's cheap removal.

Round 2: TBA

considering:

out: Lone Revenant, Warchief Giant

in: Enter the Infinite, Rhystic Study

Cost: $4.73

Focus: Still Win cons, so far we still have burn out, lite Psychosis Crawler/Niv-Mizzet, the Firemindfoil combos, and filabuster the game until you aren't first to die
