Legacy at GenCon

[Spiderman]

I guess this is mostly for Oversoul and any comments he might make since I know he's the biggest follower for Legacy, but also for any others who might be interested.

stupid question: do they always run a legacy tourney at Gen Con Indy?

 

[Oversoul]

Legacy is still less than a year old, Nightstalkers.

I am going to have to re-evaluate Landstill, as I would not have expected it to do so well...

 

[Nightstalkers]

Wait, I thought legacy was the new term for extended or T2 or something....

(I'm a casual gamer... not a pro one who knows all this new crap)

 

[Oversoul]

No, it's the term for the new version of Type 1.5 (after the banned list split from the Vintage B/R list).

 

[Nightstalkers]

Thank you... these bloody new terms are getting on my nerves lately. One kid thought I was stupid because I kept asking if he played T1...

I play vintage....

>.>

We should make a shirt to parody that.

That seems entirely unfair (well, snobbish really). It's only been officially called "Vintage" for a while and not all old players recognize it as Vintage. But the tournament players still know that it's Type I (there might be exceptions, but I doubt that was the case).

Now, I wouldn't be surprised if I went around talking about Type 1.X and players didn't know what I meant...
