Sinister`
Name: Tamir Shalev
Age: 23
Nationality: Israeli
Occupation: Odontology student
Record: 6-1
Deck you chose today and why: I chose faeries, at the begining I thought about kithkins, But I was playing faeries for some time, and im feeling good with it, so I chose the obvious
Your chances in the top8: Actually its my 1st ever top 8 (online and reality) so I dont consider myself of having hight chances of succeeding
Do you think Eventide will impact the format (enemy color split theme): If eventide will not supply the faeries either a good counter, it may affect them, in shadwomoor they have weakned abit, and got no significant cards (in my opinion), if wizards will continue norturing other decks so it may impact the format...

Thorns on 2008-06-23 21:16 MDT I love the random comments on there being no spoiled Eventide cards and the comment on mythic rares. Get your information right people, mythic rares are in Shards of Alara and we have 5 spoiled cards at the time of this writing and 4 at the time of the tourney.

TheInferno on 2008-06-30 22:47 MDT why do 3 people in this top 8 let alone the world think that faeries is the best deck in the format. You are all crazy. The only person with even a decent plan was snoopster. Im pretty sure that this format suck. OH!!! dont forget to read my new article coming out next week call " How I got 4 blumpkins and finished top 8 in San Jose this weekend!"
