I agree with all the sharfman comments, but come on people, some guys like to pretend they're a vampire. That is the only way I can logically explain why a man must disregard his personal hygiene to such an extent, that, or he wanted all of us to talk about it on youtube.
Card flicking: The purpose is to give the opponent the least amount of information by keeping them in the dark of which cards you've drawn. Especially if the opponent has any way of looking at your hand, such as Inquisition of Kozilek, Duress, etc. It may not seem like much, but at the higher levels of this game, every little edge matters. Sharfman actually doesn't even flick that much or that loud. Go to a PTQ and listen, tick, tick, tick. Or just watch Brian Kibler play. :P
Kadooka lost because he was distracted by those nails that Sharfman has. Seriously, no wonder Magic players get the reputation of being disgusting nerds; people like Sharfman. Yeah, I get it, he's a good player and he won lots of money; but c'mon.
Actually, I would rather have Cris Pikula or Brian Hacker. they both did a great job in the past. I also want Randy back. some people thought he sucked, but I always thought he had great insight.
Man, that sucks for Kadooka. Wish he could at least have gotten at least one win in. Sad to see someone lose so quickly. Although, you gotta hand it to Sharfman. Able to completley counter Kadookas deck. Although, i wonder why Sharfman used a Blisterstick and not a Sparkmage Apprentice though.
@msfb85 does blisterstick cost 2 or 3? if it costs 3 then my argument might be understandable, but if he costs 2 then sorry, my bad. i forgot what it costs.
these are limited decks, not constructed. they built them from cards they picked from booster packs, and sparkmage apprentice doesnt appear in any of the sets they drafted.
OH GOD......DEM NAILS! seriously there needs to be pt grooming standards...how many times have you gone to a ptq and you have to sit next to the stinky shit kid
don't expect block to represent standard for the coming year the way zendikar did, scars of mirrodin block is climited far more by the core set than zendikar was
Ok, what the hell does his nails have to do with him winning a pro tour? you all didn't make that accomplishment, so find something to pick at him about. haters gone hate
@AshPhnx It has nothing to do with him winning it. Did he do something that most of us could never do? You bet your ass he did. Can we do something that EVERY single person can do (clip our nails or keep them clean) except him? You bet your ass we can.
How is Rich Hagon still doing coverage for wizards? He's obviously knows very little about pro level magic and he is utterly unbearable to listen to when he starts rambling. Honestly I really could care less about everything he says and am forced to skip ahead in the video when he gets on a rant. Wizards please replace this guy, he makes me feel dumber every time I hear him. Even BDM, who is the greatest guy, can barely stifle laughter when Rich starts talking "strategy".
Why do pro players always have to do that annoying card-shuffling thing with their hands? That's always bothered me. Other than that, this was a great match!
@andregor99202 just keep watching players and attempting with other people around you and eventually you will get better and know how to set a up deck your more comfortable with
@gameguru42392 no? ive seen nobody else doing that flicking as loud and annoying as sharfman. hes doing it all the freakin time and unrelentlessly so i have all reason in the wold to "bitch" about it. and fuck u by the way.
are you serious? you must be new. there are many players on camera who flick all three faster, louder, and more often than sharfman, and even they do not seem to bug anyone in the comments. i did not even notice his flicking until you mentioned it, its just so hugely common to flick that very way nowadays.
I don't agree with terkerknight. I think that BDM is essential on these events. No one can be adequate substitute for him, except maybe LSV, but I don't think that he is interested in that job.
BDM has looked nothing but bored in all of the PT Nagoya videos. Maybe it's time to find someone who can match Rich's enthusiasm, and BDM's knowledge of the game.
