Blaze is in 10th

I also love this set. In sealed I think as long as you get 4 pieces of removal you are going to have a fun tournament, i.e. games you feel like you have a say in the results.

2 to 3 blasts... even more reason to play it his way... ( + it is better to be bold and put down a hell of clock, than not too in that situation.... I would have thought )

Forgot just how weird this deck was

i think how weird it was was its strength too. like, kris only beat you in the finals because he actually knew what was going on; you'd beaten the same deck twice simply because it's so hard to play against when you don't know what cards matter
