Modern PPTQ 11/09/16 – decklists

66 players showed up with the cool summer breeze blowing through their hair, and they were all ready for Modern PPTQ. After the the first couple of rounds the temperature started rising, but players kept their heads cool. Then round 7 finally ended and the TOP-8 was announced. Kasper Zijl and Daem Vorster managed to sneak into TOP-8 on tiebreakers, and they ended up playing in the finals against each other. In the end Kasper with his Death Shadow emerged victorious. Congratulations and see you next time 🙂
