Last monday was a big day for MPDC: The Season One Championships! Kehmesis did at the MPDC Championship what he couldn’t do at SPDC World’s: take Storm Control to the top. The top placers included other great players and/or regular names such as Kingritz, icarodx and kaityson36. Read on for the coverage of all the semi- and final matches, or even better, watch these great games yourselves with the video coverage! What about my accomplishments, you ask? Well, the title isn’t fictional.
On top of the Championship, the last part of the Morningtide overview, Red, is included, while the Mic and the Spotlight are postponed due to the Championship coverage.

Storm Control takes its seventh standard trophy home, winning MPDC 1.16. This time it was piloted by its creator kehmesis, who beat MPDC regular ZeroFusion with Use UR Illusion in the finals. It is blue’s turn in the Morningtide review series and the Mic is passed to Kingritz, who shares some awesome intel on Kingdrifter and does his own Morningtide review. The Spotlight is aimed at Red Deck Wins, the forgotten aggro deck in standard.

Last monday’s MPDC (with a turn-out of a whopping 22 players!) was won by everyone’s favorite (and only) MPDC article writer, myself, playing kehmesis’ version of UR Storm Control (which is featured in the Spotlight), defeating mikec_00 piloting Use UR Illusion in the finals. On top of this I’ll continue to look into Morningtime with standards least played color: Green. Will Morningtide change this? Last, but not least, an interview with kehmesis, his first article feature after “going nuts”!

This week I’ll have to listen to [url=http://www.ts-discovery.de/images/Guns%20N'%20Roses%20Use%20your%20illusion%201.jpg]Gun’s and Roses[/url] more. The article will contain the continuation of the Morningtide overview, this time with the color best at destroying you footware; the color of the swamp (Don’t step in!). MPDC was won by jtamaro with an old favorite, White Weenie, beating a modified version of UR Storm Control, played by ChronicHeaves in the finals. The deck in the spotlight this week will be Grimdrifter, and the mic is passed to RaiserUK, who gives many interesting answers about, among others, his ability to go to multiple top spots while being a newcomer.

In todays Mulligan, I’ll talk about last mondays MPDC, which was won by 53N531 playing UR Illusions, beating hurriboy with his Sticks ‘n Stones list in the finals. The mic is in the hands of Sensei this week, talking about the state of the meta and the upcomming Morningtide release. This weeks winning MPDC list will be in the spotlight, having multiple pilots and top places in the last two weeks. I am also starting my five part “comprehensive” Morningtide standard overview, with the most worthwhile white commons for standard. The delay of both MTGO3.0 and Morningtide will give me enough time to finish this before we can flip the cards through our digital fingers.
