Next weekend, I am setting up a small tournament for us. Likely between 5 and 8 people total. Like I said, small. Double elimination. Proxies allowed. I'm one of the participants. (thats where I am able to play, my tournament, my rules!)
So the question is, which deck? I've recently enjoyed a new Shardless Bug build. It has been fairly popular on Cockatrice. I also enjoy a certain build of Eldrazi. There is also Infect. Ugh... I don't know. Heck, I have even thought about Lands and D&T. All are solid decks for different reasons. I am leaning towards Shardless Bug v2.0 because most the guys I play against don't know about it. They haven't seen me play it at all, and likely not expecting it from me.
