Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:00 am**

I honestly don't know if Gruul loses, but I had to say it.

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:04 am**

I'm so glad that this matchup is happening again. Beat his face in, Owen.

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:07 am**

More Cedric gold:

"Divination was able to draw a couple of cards here."

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:08 am**

Poor Owen, flooding out.

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:10 am**

hwo the fuck are these guys keeping 7s without a 1-drop

hell turtenwald has TWELVE 1-drops and still doesnt lead

I just

amateurs playing OUR RED DECKS

I missed his opener, what did he keep?

Would you keep Mountain Mountain BTE BTE GHC Shortcutter Lightning Strike?

Not saying that's what his hand was, but there are certainly non-1 drop hands I'd keep.

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:15 am**

He actually made the correct keep.

From what I could make out, Mountain, Mountain, Mutavault, Phoenix, Phoenix, BTE, Firefist Striker.

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:17 am**

Muta, striker, phoenix, and BTE. His opponent was on the play and led with ratchet bomb however so owen elected to only cast Striker to avoid the 2-for-1.

I also don't mind his keep as on the draw, you have a reasonable chance of hitting your "12-outer" and BTE into whatever gives you an equally powerful draw.

That's even better. Did he drop the vault T1?

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:19 am**

top 8 breakdown.

3 Esper
2 Mono Red
1 U/W
1 G/R
1 Naya

More Cedric gold:

"Divination was able to draw a couple of cards here."

Sounds like something John Madden would say if he started doing commentary for SCG.

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:24 am**

Well, some favourable control matchups at least.

Where you at GW?

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:25 am**

I'm waiting for Cedric to opine "Rakdos Cackler really is a hybrid red/black 1 drop!"

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:26 am**

"Boy, that Lightning Strike sure did 3 damage."

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:31 am**

"Getting the opponent to zero really locked in that win."

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:31 am**

YEA OWEN GET THERE!

"Preferred way to win." Pssh. My preferred way to win is getting my opponent to 0. Do we really care if it is burn or creatures?

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:31 am**

Owen winning g2 against esper with flames of the firebrand. Because you have to kill yoked ox and it goes to the dome.

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:33 am**

"Scry 2 on Magma Jet is a useful ability"
"You always want to see an opener with creatures"

Edit. Bravo Kaze

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:33 am**

lol the John Madden of Magic

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:33 am**

Max is playing U/W, not Esper.

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:34 am**

Owens a copycat, that was my meta call. Asshat.

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:35 am**

flames is a nice answer to elspeth the turn she comes down as well.

"stabilize this!"

<_<b

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:37 am**

"Playing that Rakdos Cackler turn 1 was a pretty good choice for Owen there."

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:37 am**

Oooh that is nice. +1 for flames. This game is demonstrating exactly why I don't like the all-in decks.

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:40 am**

and game over

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:40 am**

Dat speth is dead at least.

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:48 am**

I must be the only one not actively watching.

Posted: **Mon Sep 30, 2013 3:51 am**
