Two hundred and four players came, and only twenty-four remain, after a grueling nine rounds of Vs. System Sealed Pack play. Sitting at the top are veterans like Dave Spears and Nick Little, but there’s also some new blood, with Jesus Esterada managing a very impressive 9-1 record in his first $10K event.
In what may be the most exciting format in a while, the strategies in Infinite Crisis Sealed Pack appeared to be endless. From JSA weenie to Checkmate beatdown, people were playing vastly different decks to a Top 24 finish. But in the end, the cream of the crop rose to the occasion, and now those players are being rewarded with a chance at $2,500 and the title of $10K Champion.
Tomorrow morning, those players will return, this time for Infinite Crisis Draft. Stay tuned to Metagame.com for all the coverage here in San Francisco—you never know what you might miss!
