Magic: The Gathering Constructed results (Iaşi, September 6)


Notice: Looking for the Magic: The Gathering community in Iasi? Be sure to check the dedicated blog and forum: www.planeswalkers.ro.

Last weekend we played a standard constructed tournament in the same setting as the draft. Performing my duty for the community, here are the results and some information about upcoming events.

Results

Although somewhat similar in design to the “Elvish Predation” theme deck, Bogdan’s deck of elves really whooped the llama’s ass last Saturday. The second place was a deck of fairies featuring a playset of Scion of Oona. The third place was a deck of rot and cinders, featuring more -1/-1 counters than you can take.

 Pl  Name R 1 R 2 R 3 R 4 NBWSOSSOSOS
Bogdan Solca 5= 7+ 2= 6+1358½279
Alexandru Mirza 4+ 0= 1= 5+1357274½
Dan Diac 6= 4- 9+ 7+12½56½277½
Alex Diaconu 2- 3+ 7- 8+1258278
 Mircea Cretu 1= 9= 8+ 2-1258278
Iulian Avasiloaia 3= 8+ 0= 1-1256½272
Mihai Birsan 0= 1- 4+ 3-11½57½273
Dan Ignat 9+ 6- 5- 4-1157278
Ana Patache 8- 5= 3- 0= 1155½271½

Each round column has the following information: player number against which this player has played; "+" if this player won; "-" if this player lost; "=" if it was a draw. If the player number is 0, it means this player was a bye player for that round. (This player means the player on the row you're reading.)

Upcoming events

I've setup a public calendar of events on Google Calendar, and you can grab the latest information from there. We're also working on a community website to gather all this information, and we hope to have it online soon.


Things look awesome so far: we have around 12 active players, which means we usually get at least 8 players participating in the event every Saturday; there are a lot of enthusiasts who want to learn the game, and now we're offering an opportunity for them to learn from experienced players. And we're only getting started. And of course, we wouldn't be here without the help of LEX Copy Center, our cards supplier, and Amnesia Crem Caffe, our host.

The next goal with this is to have sanctioned Friday Night Magic events with foiled cards won in every event.
