I tend to play pretty high risk/high reward decks, and MagneBoar doesn't make an exception. Not too much to say about the list, fitting in 2 Stage 2s requires so much space that it doesn't leave too much room for surprises. The list here isn't what I'd play right now though. Bad Boar didn't do anything to help itself, and should IMO stay out of this deck in the current format. I originally had the Judge count at 3, but lowered it to 1 when in need of space. Looking back, at least 2 should be in here. Also, the lack of PETM was a bit risky, and I'd definetly put in one. Fisherman+2xRetrieval is overkill when not using Bad Boar. Tyrogue I added in in the middle of the tournament, but didn't need at all. I feel like it could even be taken out, since in a deck with no PlusPowers its only purpose is donking, and people are more careful now with babies than a few weeks ago.

PlayTCG is really looking like it could be the online PTCG program, but it definetly isn't ready yet. The lack of a deck card count is annoying when playing a deck like the one I did, where every game that goes down to prizes should end in you decking yourself out on the last turn. I had a few close calls with that...
Also, lag. Lots of it. The board lags, the chat lags, and at some point the program always starts spamming me with "Internet connection lost" windows, leaving me clicking OK for a minute or two.
 
ABout the prizes, I'll have to figure out some knew ones dude to my pouch full of the scizors and sages stuff being stolen at nats. Sorry. Ill figure something out.
