9/9 - Multiplayer or Cube (or Multiplayer Cube)

You guys interested in getting together on Wednesday this week? Steve had mentioned an interest in using the Planechase cards in Multiplayer, so perhaps either Multiplayer Big Deck (which I'd have to build today) or Multiplayer Cube (which we haven't done in a while). My house is available if you're interested in playing here. I also have sick amounts of food and drink here which I'd like to get rid of.

BTW, I played the planechase tournament at Redcaps and won with the hugely imbalanced black deck. I had 17 swamps in play and cabal coffers, which gave me about 7 or 8 rolls per turn. It really wasn't close.

Sounds good to me, I'll be there around 7pm tomorrow.

Edit: I'll have my trade binder with me, so if you got any of the cards on my list feel free to bring them along.

Do we have a count of attendees? Steve, Jim said you were out of commission. Say it ain't so!

i'm better. i just had a weird case of nausea yesterday.

i'm coming and will bring all 41 Planechase cards.

Who's coming with you, and anyone know if John W. is coming?

Well, I assume I'd be going with Steve, as usual. Likely John O. too, unless he can't make it.

Play of the night:

John O survived a Jokulhaups "in the bubble," got 7 goat tokens from Goldmeadow, then sacc-ed one to play Mycoloth from another planar ability, saccing the other six to Mycoloth with a Fires of Yavimaya on the board. Then the plane that is Coat of Arms gets flipped, and John plays a Sarkhan Vol. In the turn I was left in the game, he attacked with 24 25/25 saprolings with haste, and the rest of us die horribly.

I had a lot of fun with the cube-draft, I had a sick bladestorm deck (that's BRW by the way, for those out of the known). Thanks to some of the crazy planar effects I was able to wrack up quite a few kills with Blistering Firecat, Ink-Eyes, and Calciderm. John O still managed to kill us all though via a couple dozen saporlings in the end. If I had possessed just one more mana at the time I have Starstorm'ed for 1 and possible clawed out a victory or two more (note, I blame John W. for the whole mess, blowing all permanents while John O. was in the bubble pretty much ended the game).

Big Deck was also a good time, though I think I'm going to need a break from it for a while sooner or later. Too much Big Deck, I just might work on building some new casual decks if I can find some stupid combo or interaction to abuse.
