![]() I almost never play Standard offline these days but at the eleventh hour I decided make a deck just in case. In the unlikely event that you find yourself in a big Innistrad sealed 2HG event I advise you to pack whatever answers you have for Invisible Stalker (Rolling Temblor, your own better Stalkers, etc). The official side events I played were a big Innistrad sealed, a big Two-Headed Giant Innistrad sealed, and some Standard 8-player single-elimination quickies. on the other hand, it didn't hurt! Otherwise, I chose to enjoy all of the main event coverage online back at the Grotto, pants off, drink in hand, as the Internet was meant to be appreciated. This surely had nothing to do with the freshly-available Conley in Bazaar of Baghdad token I drew for Channel Fireball: By the middle of the day two I absorbed the vibe that Conley Woods had transformed into an invincible cyborg warrior. The top 8 was shown on a big screen but the previous three days of competition took place behind barn-proof barriers and to spectate required a dangerous amount of neck-craning. Yet that was me and most of the civilians in attendance. ![]() It’s weird to attend a world championship stocked with every big-name pro plus a healthy roster of hall-of-famers and have no frickin’ idea what is going on in the main event. I had these aggressive token/business cards made right before Worlds and was pressing them upon everyone around me: I’d intended to produce elaborate coverage of the Magic World Championship event in San Francisco last week but I feel the moment passing so will instead jumble together a bag of miscellaneous items from my sojourn in Magical Magic-land.
