[Tourney Report] Top 2 Split with Enchantress

On the 29th of August, 2010, an unexpected large turnout of 28 players participated in the monthly 8-proxy Legacy tournament at Games Heaven. Amongst the usual turnout of Kaiser, Yong Xin, Zhi Ming and others, there's many new faces that I do not remember seeing before. With this large turnout, the organisers have increased the prizes by 30 foil cards from From the Vault: Relics, in addition to the original 2 Force of Will, 1 Tarmogoyf, 1 Natural Order, 2 Counterbalance. With 2 copies each of foil Mox Diamond, Sol Ring, Aether Vial, Isochron Scepter, and other EDH playables in the pool, it definitely has become more competitive and rewarding for a mere $20 entry.

[Legacy 101] Introduction to 43-Lands/Blue Lands

Lands. You know you love them when you're mana screwed (unless you're playing Belcher). Some players hate being mana screwed to the extent that they created a deck filled with 60 lands. When they realised the deck sucks, they added some blue in it. And you have a deck that placed 5 top-8's out of a possible 88 slots in the past 11 SCG Legacy Open, right behind Merfolk, Zoo, Reanimator, Goblins, and ANT.

[Legacy 101] Introduction to Goblins

Goblins. Since the inception of Legacy, Goblins has terrorized the meta with its cheap bodies, card advantage, mana denial, and a comboish kill. The deck is filled with synergy that perhaps no other can match. Although the printing of Tarmogoyf and rise of ANT and Threshold shunned players away from goblins, the recent ban of Mystical Tutor made Goblins a decent choice again in the aggro-infested meta.

[Legacy 101] Introduction to Counter-top Goyf

Occupying 6 out of a possible 80 top-8 positions in the SCG Legacy Open Series, and landing 2nd in Grand Prix Columbus, Counter-top Goyf is an established deck that you should be familiar with. Although there is a vast variety of Counter-top Goyf decks, the predominant version is in Bant colours.
