Grand Prix Columbus & LCV Coverage + News

As you guys might already know, this weekend is going to be a really exciting weekend for anyone who loves the Eternal formats. First of all, the 2nd Legacy Grand Prix of 2010 is being held in Columbus (USA). And then tomorrow we also have, even if it’s not as relevant as a GP, the monthly tournament of the Catalan Vintage League (LCV) in Badalona.

Here at Eternal Central we’ll try to provide you with the best coverage we can. We can’t promise a lot but we’ll try to keep you updated with news, pictures and such. We had 2 members of the EC staff attending to the GP but one of them won’t be able to make it. Hopefully we’ll get enough info coming from the battlefield to keep you guys entertained.

On the other hand, I’ll be playing the LCV tournament and I’ll do my best to cover what’s going on in there as well. I’ll be carrying my video camera, so you guys should expect a lot of new videos being published soon!

LCV BADALONA NEWS

  • 50 players signed in for the LCV!
  • Rubén González from Jack Drain’s Team won playing Storm City Bond (kinda the evolution from Steel City Vault)
  • Top8 decks were: 1 Storm City Bond (Rubén González), 1 Tezz Oath (Joe Gallego), 2 Confidant Tezz (Albert Vila and Xavier Muntada), 2 Repeal Tendrils (1 with Bob – Miquel Alcoriza, 1 without Bob – Javi Rubio), 1 Noble Fish (Manoleke), 1 TPS (Yushi).
  • It was insane warm!
  • Jacerator performed well. I went 4-1 and at last round I couldn’t I.D. due to my low tie breakers. So, on round 6 I started with Mulligan to 5 and game 2 I saw my opponent topdeck like a champ for the win.
  • Many videos were recorded, so you can expect them being published soon.
  • The prizes sucked, again… luckily we are preparing a revolution for 2010’s LCV!
