Goblins won the PTQ yesterday in LA =P
I kinda wish I played vs one :[ I got matched up against next level blue and I just got outplayed because i'm a bad player LoL I ran a crappy version of U/W Scepterchant

that mono blue ninja deck that was posted on these forums made 2nd too.. I guess the meta was really unprepared for these 2 decks. Deathcloud, Enduring, Gruul with Black for Extirpate / 4x Engineered Plagues in SB and U/G Tron not sure what the last deck was but anyway it was a long day Surprised

here was my list :[

SB: 4 Sphere of Law
SB: 4 Hurkyl's Recall
SB: 3 Tormod's Crypt
SB: 2 Threads of Disloyalty
SB: 2 Meddling Mage

4 Isochron Scepter
4 Orim's Chant
4 Chrome Mox
3 Stifle
4 Counterbalance
4 Counterspell
3 Trinket Mage
2 Wrath of God
1 Engineered Explosives
4 Sensei's Divining Top
2 Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir
4 Thirst for Knowledge
6 Island
4 Polluted Delta
4 Flooded Strand
1 Watery Grave
2 Hallowed Fountain
1 Academy Ruins
1 Plains
2 Seat of the Synod

Match 1 - Lost to Next Level Blue (close game)
Match 2 - Beat Affinity - Game 2 I played Scepter Recall twice.... ha ha ha and he ancient grudged twice because I play terrible :]
Match 3 - Lost to Aggro Loam because I misplayed alot
Match 4 - Beat Gaea's Might Get There ( Counterbalance // Top FTW )
Match 5 - Lost to Next Level Blue ( I play this matchup like a nub.. he got balance // top before I did both games :[ )
Match 6 - Beat Janky G/W Slide Deck (He made me play out everything both games I won by decking via academy and explosives for zero)
Match 7 - Lost to Tarmo Burn

I forgot one matchup but I won it =/ so I went 4-4

uhm I think yeah it wasn't anything special but I figured the meta would be Affinity // Tarmoburn or Red Decks // Goblins and obviously Dredge and I think i predicted correctly but My mirror match up with next level blue - I didn't even play test for this match up so I screwed up a lot of times and i felt I could have won both matches..

Yes AkYo. I was there yesterday. The guy playing Blue Ninjas is who I went with, and I gave him that list by the way. He changed it a bit because the one Jacois posted was a bit bad with Bottle Gnomes and such.
