Weekly legacy result, and auction

Went to Legacy again last week at MTG First. Rolled out my Omni-Sneak-Show deck. The most satisfying moment was to bust out a first turn kill. I petered out after that, but still- it was very nice.

Turn goes like this:
Ancient Tomb + Lotus Pedal = Show and Tell
Force of Will their Daze.
Drop Omniscience.
Cast Griselbrand, draw 14. Can't find one of four Emrakul. I Ponder, shuffle. Slight of Hand, FINALLY find it, cast and win. Whew.

I finally understand why Arcane Artisan is good for this deck- Surgical Extraction. I got hosed a couple times when I couldn't get my big things in because of having my first S+T countered, then Surgicaled. It sucked. I had outs with Sneak Attack, but I think bringing in the Artisan would be a great method in diversifying the targets. (2 S+T, 1 Sneak out; 3 AA in)

I could have won all three matches, I never felt like I was completely lost. Poor draws sucked it up for me. Eh, it happens. Land floods happen.

Notes- there are at least 2 devoted DnT players at the weekly event. I feel good about keeping Batterskull out again this week, and Sword of War and Peace in main deck. I also put in the two Surgical Extractions in the SB. Need to pick up real copies of those eventually, until then- proxies are good enough.
I've also considered running the red splash version of DnT for the Magus of the Moon. The amount of non-basic lands are up again.

Stifles are everywhere.

Wastelands are everywhere.

I think I won an auction from this site in Canada. I sent them a message asking if I had, and their reply was: "We are closed until August 7th. We will let you know at that time."
WTF, how does a company operate like this?

In any case, I've got time to figure out other things I guess. Hahaha!
