In reply to Tim. (by "them" in the last sentence, I mean the competitors in the top 8)

Just a point of clarification on your interpretation of the Invitational results: the 7-1 records are not by day, but by format. The link to the 7-1 Standard decks you posted are records accumulated through four rounds of Standard on Friday and four rounds of Standard on Saturday. So they didn’t fail to top 8 due to poor day two performances, but due to poor Legacy performances. Also worth pointing out: SCG doesn’t mention that their list of 7-1 or better decks is really the list of all 7-1 or better decks that did not make top 8, as five of the them were 7-1 or better in Standard.

In reply to Nick Becvar. They are right next to Phyrexia Besieged on the shelf at your LGS.

In reply to David Schumann. The more obscure the site, the better the deal. I think next year if I\'m still in this silly kids\' game, I will do a round-up of all of the smaller sites worth patronizing around the holidays by virtue of how good their winter sale is.

I also noticed some online retailers had really good MTG sales (specifically on Black Friday) but most seemed to half-ass it and barely do anything at all. I was hoping to go big on quite a few specs and ended up just buying a bunch of scrylands and calling it a day.
