Legend is such a gentleman. If an Opp does not respond anymore Legend never say "I am getting roped" or such a thing. He always says the Opp has disconnected. What is really legendary in LegendVD is his sportsmanship (apart from his insane skills). That's one of the reason why I think Legend would be an optimal choice for a Magic Tournament online commentator.

Legend, I think it would be great if you made a video dedicated to your deckbuilding thought process and means of categorization. Most often I find myself struggling to balance out how prevalent each theme of my deck should be, especially in comparison to the win condition. Though I'm sure there are many things that everyone could learn from such a breakdown. All the best, going on 5 years of viewing and keeping it up :D

Legend, gotta say, I love your videos man. Been playing magic back since Mirrodin Besieged, and only happened across your channel about a year ago. You're calm and analytical analysis over every play, explaining your thoughts and how you read the board, shows both experience, love of the game, and your quick learning from your mistakes, rather than getting mad at something. It's refreshing, and I love seeing your channel grow more and more every day. Here's to hoping I end up clashing against you in Arena one day, though the idea terrifies me with your skill heh.
