12.04.01 If I couldn't abuse my being
editor of the Pojo Magic site, what good would it be to have taken this job?
I need your help, loyal reader. I need you
to break a constructed format for me. Event Horizons (the tournament
organizers in Texas) holds the Event Horizons Invitational each year.
This year they are holding a set of 3 rounds with a constructed set of their
own design.
And it’s a really good set, with very powerful
cards. For example, for U1 you can have a 2/2 flier or Time Walk, but
your opponent chooses which. For B1 you get a 2/2 that reduces your
opponents maximum hand size by 2. You have spells that can be played as
spells, or as lands, your choice. Many of the cards have an ability more
ridiculous than cycling! How about counter target spell for U. But
then your opponent gets to put that card into HIS hand... and cast it for 1 if
you have an island in play.
The mechanics for the format are very important
and you should read them first at: http://www.ehevents.com/nhmechanics.html
The cards of the format are located at http://www.ehevents.com/nhspoiler.html.
Here's what I want out of you, loyal reader.
The best deck. I don't care what colors you use, I just want the best
deck that can be made. If you can find a combo, PLEASE find the combo.
I'd love to use a combo deck if I qualify.
And here's the payoff.
If I qualify (which might or might not happen
depending on two upcoming tournaments), and then go 3-0 with a deck you submit
to me, I'll send you half a box of product. That's half of what I'd get
for attending the event, so it’s a pretty big offer for you. 2-1 will
get 1/3 of a box. 1-1 will get you 1/6 of a box, and 0-3 gets you
ridiculed publicly.
Good luck, and good designing. I'll be
establishing a special section for the decklists as soon as I get a few.
If the other competitors use your ideas, maybe they will send you something if
they win. Who knows?
Also, we'll be doing live coverage of this event
when that time comes around in February. I'll definitely tell you how I
do in the invite-only tournament that will be held at GP Houston, and how I do
at GP Houston, etc.
Until next time,
