What the hell do we have to do to get P Sully and Cedric back together?!?

[@CromwellMTG]

Control vs aggro is always a show!!

[@IamJoshEast]

Where are Marshall and Reid on coverage? Love it when they have a rotation. Miss Riley as well

[@kylemitchell2052]

Marshall didn't go to the PT as he was taking care of his mom who had suffered a heart attack a couple weeks prior.

[@reggietheroman]

Anyone know what brand of orange sleeves Greg uses?

[@bradleycox8835]

What a mad lad format of mono one rings all over....ya ill play burn.

[@Phil1053Locket]

One ring is terrible against burn I’m super lost by your comment

[@jellysandjamz250]

I wonder if thermo alchemist would do well in burn

[@mav807]

It would not

[@swiftdragonrider]

the reason he fired the burn spells is becuse they cost 3 and are sorceries. he couldnt hold for 2 of them as he could only cast 1 a turn.

[@spauldingsenpai3181]

You still hold at least one of them in case you draw a 1 mana burn spell next turn. Also there where multiple occasions where they would've helped. First one was at 12:43 where Orange countered Mo's Rift Bolt. If he had the Skewers in hand he could've played it for 1 mana because Orange had to fetch and took damage this turn for the Spectacle cost to be active. Second one was at 13:58 where Orange responded to Skullcrack with an evoked Solitude. If Mo would've hold on Rift Bolt or Skewer he could've cast it first (he has 5 mana) then respond to the evoked Solitude with his Skullcrack. Just a poor Burn player :(

[@fluffybunnyz285]

He used the skullkracks too early

[@paupanades9957]

jintao conceding game 2 after omnath is just troll and impatient. There were lines to win still.

[@sambarron1712]

There isn't, Greg is on 10, and Jintao is hellbent

[@paupanades9957]

@@sambarron1712 he is on 6, needs to draw land to get to 10. Line is jintao draws burn spell 3 x2 while greg doesnt draw land x2. and so on

[@sambarron1712]

@@paupanades9957 The land he played to go to 6 is a Windswept Heath, so he can trigger omnath to go to 9 in opp upkeep (not 10 like I initially said, my b)

[@paupanades9957]

@@sambarron1712 I see, makes sense to me now. mby there is a line where he misses 3 draws and burn topdecks 3 burn spells? ahaha I know its a bi gstretch at this point but should be mathematically possible?

PSA: Don’t spoil the finals before anyone on KZbin gets to watch the previous games. Get a better format for people who can’t watch the live stream. Seriously, do better.
