[Azreal the Soulmaster]

It was a much better game than the first. That Knight gaining flying really screwed up my plans.

good game.

 

[BigBlue]

So, What was your ante card - the one you held out?

Mine was Fireblast, which I'd love to see go to you if you have a gem in your Ante.

 

[Azreal the Soulmaster]

Were we supposed to just pick an ante card BigBlue?
The ante part kinda confused me.

 

[Spiderman]

I think the ante card was the one you picked way back when BigBlue gave you a list of all the cards, before the drafting started.

 

[BigBlue]

correct spidey - except that I didn't give him the list, Train did since I was playing in the match.

 

[Spiderman]

Sorry 'bout that.

 

[Azreal the Soulmaster]

oh ok. let me go through my pms, i'm sure its there somewhere.

It was Civic Guildmage.

 

[BigBlue]

Well... As I said, you can have the Fireblast... I'll take the Guildmage.

 

[train]

once I realized how far back that actually was PM-wise I knew what I was looking for...
