Hey. i´ve already seen that the top8 were made of:
6 aggro decks
2 control decks

And Maxime Lemaitre has won (congrats to him).

If anyone else has any news/reports/decklists i would love to read :)

I think this was another successfull GP, congrats to all players and organisation :)

The videos of the semifinal and final are already available. Despite some of the sleeves making some of the cards hard to see, i think they are worth viewing. Steady cam (tripod is always good  :)). Good work organization.

Hi,

I don t know what you can understand in our german forum so I post something from there so you get also some more impressens.

The second placed player of the GP posted his deck

http://www.deckcheck.net/stats.php?id=44353

He also told what he played against:

2-0 against BG Recrussion
2-1 against UGw Deck: He said his opponet lost the last game because he couldn t find a creature for his round 2 survival even with impuls
2-1 against RDW: He was screwed on G1 and had no green, but he was winning the other 2 games quite easy
2-0 against Multicolor Control: because of his ramp plan of the deck he was far away from losing
2-1 against Zoo: game 1 Upheaval, game 2 Port, Vial, Wasteland, Isamaru, Nacatl, Rancor, Bonesplitter no chance for him, G3 wasteland won the game because the zoo player was screwed on R only

Then he d just drawed himself into the top8

Top8

2-0 against Oath game1 he scrwed on lands, game 2 did he win because of a well timed B2B and 2x primal command on his oath
2-1 against RG Beatz he said he played against him but won anayways ... seems to be a good deck against aggro
0-2 against WW: The WW player drawed pretty well so he had no chance you can watch the vids that are posted on top

hope you can understand what I did write :)

thks, my german is really bad, though i can count till 10 :P but google translator helps me pick the general idea of what it´s being said.

From the vids, i could definitely see that WW player drew quite well.

The 2nd player deck seems interesting, i´d probably tweak a little bit specially on the creature/survival part.
By the looks of it it does really well against aggro, i wouldnt expect it to win so easily against zoo/RDW and the likes.


That dragonstorm is nice, i liked his idea of building control/combo instead of just going insane with his combo. nice build :)
