i have a question for the game 1 : at 15:19 why did yuuya attack first and play the +1 ability of chandra afterwards, while shahar had only 1 mana untapped? what were possible 1 mana threats in shahars deck? or was it only a mistake from yuuya?
I don't want to sound really stupid asking this question but is this tournament played with "Modern" Format so all the cards that aren't banned are able to be used or what? cause All i see are Khans Of Tarkir decks and im confused on what cards are aloud and what aren't, like why hasn't anyone used a Quicksilver amulet with Progenitus deck
To further elaborate, they played a variety of matches this tourney. Here's the official breakdown: On Day One, players will compete in three rounds of real-life Vintage Masters Booster Draft followed by four rounds of Modern. Vintage Masters booster packs will be generated on Magic Online and physically re-constructed for this event. On Day Two, players will compete in three rounds of Khans of Tarkir Booster Draft followed by four rounds of Standard. The Top 4, which takes place on December 7, will be played using the Standard Constructed decks that the players used on Day Two of the event.
Why did Patrick Chapin put his first Siege Rhino into the graveyard in game three of his match with Yamamoto (the second game shown on the video)? I've watched it several times and cannot figure it out. Chapin appears to be explaining something to Yamamoto, then just puts his creature into the graveyard, but there are no abilities on board that would allow him to sac a creature. I can't figure it out. Does anyone else know what happened?
+Tom Blackstone Kentaro Yamamoto Cast Hero's downfall on it. Since Chapin knew he had it from the previous thoughtseize, He was probably asking yamamoto if he was going to use said hero's downfall. And Yamamoto did.
Love seeing the Abhorrent Overlord comments along with the Whip of Erebos in the video. I've been running the Overlord next to Hornet Queen in both G/B Constellation and Sidisi Whip. When you whip a queen at somebody you do two damage and eave 4 tokens behind. When you whip the demon you do 6 damage and leave at least 4 sometimes even way more tokens behind. Yes they don't have deathtouch like the insects but you still clog the board with a bunch of flying chump blockers. tappedout.net/mtg-decks/06-12-14-sultai-reanimator/ tappedout.net/mtg-decks/gb-constellation-2nd-place/
I really don't like Yuuya's sideboard strategy. Bringing in End Hostilities against a deck that wants its creatures in the graveyard does not seem great. I like Disdainful Stroke and Erase not the unhinged one), as Whip just kills you, but trying to out-control Shahar's deck does not seem like a great plan.
Show the card when they take it out! I can't see shit! Then it will be more fun watching this videos. I don't know all cards that well or doing it like poker cameras do show the hands at least, please get better at this.
