There was a short but not sweet round this month. After the infinite combo won the day there was a spirited discussion about how many rounds have ended this way in 2015. I think almost half the rounds this year have effectively halted in the face of one combo or another. This isn’t about picking..
Eight players competed in the tenth round of grand melee this year. As per last month, David K was the first player eliminated. After that four player were eliminated together by a giant Fireball from Keith D! That left just three players in the game. Eddie C triumphed for his first win of the year..
We had 10 players turn up for the August round of Grand Melee, which gave us a good and interesting game. David and Eddie each played interesting decks and were the first two players eliminated! The game eventually came down to Jeremy, who had stalled on two lands for most of the game, and Anthony,..
For the second month in a row we had 11 players show up to play Magic. This time it was Keith the dark horse who took out the game, after first Eddie C, the David K made themselves the player to beat (they were beaten). Jay N finished with 5 kills and 2 new achievements..

The tenth round, with just one match to go before the finals, saw a full table of twelve players. Normally we would split this into two tables of six, but with two late entries we went with one big table. The game went for the full two hours and in the end Jay N took..
I wasn’t able to come to the LXG meeting this month due to illness, but fortunately Eddie C was able to step in and run this round for me. Thanks Eddie! We had eight players this month, and the round ended with no winner as three players were still alive. Alex Sp managed 2 kills,..
