Paluka loses
Game recap

"I have never won in the finals of a Grand Prix. I lost two of them back to back - Kansas City and DC," sighed Pikula.

Chris tried Gerard's Verdict - "You are getting some good ones." - and nabbed Siege-Gang and another Piledriver. Cursed Scroll punctuated his turn. Jon used Wasteland on Chris' Scrubland and played another Piledriver. Cursed Scroll one of the Piledrivers naming Duress.

Hahahahhahahahhaaha

"It's cool now if I lose I can complain, 'I lost to some guy who just didn't attack with Piledriver.'"

Wow, match is still going and he's looking to make excuses already!

Is it just me, or is Paluka never going to make it into the Magic Hall of Fame with this kind of defeatist attitude?

Paluka, be a closer, not a loser.

I want Paluka to challenge high-limit pros to HU Magic matches when they suck out on him.

Well, Paluka is a winner in one respect. His deckname "Rogue Deadguy" is homage to the best brewer in the US and is waaaaaay cooler than simply "Goblins." Pfff....

Jon had Goblin Ringleader into Goblin Warchief on the next turn and attacked for a gaudy fifteen under the Engineered Plague. Chris shook his head, "I can't believe I lost this game with Engineered Plague in play and won the one without it."


Tell me about it.

ouch! the hellmuth of magic is actually some dude named Mike Dove. It is hard not to punch him in the face.

Is there actually any skill involved in magic? It seems like it would be very easy to always find the optimal play and you can always copy someone else's deck
