We had something like seven guys from CMU (including Turian) attending this PTQ. This was my first PTQ road trip, and for the most part I’d have to say I enjoyed it. The conversation in the car on the way there was a good chance for me to just toss out any random Limited strategy…
I’d call Opposition decks”this year’s Fires,” as they’re insanely consistent and have no glaring weaknesses. Either play it or be ready for it.

The first of four looks at different aspects of Emperor-style casual play. In this first installment: An Emperor’s draft, both booster and Rochester. Plus,the Antelope draws nigh!
Sheldon’s been sitting still thanks to some minor surgery, but in the meantime he returns to say the magic words:”Cease-Fire is not a counterspell.”
Jim discusses his builds of Sligh for Type 2, and why a mono-red version just doesn’t cut it anymore….
