Blind Magic is an online Magic format played here on the forums. Players play with an extremely limited deck size, such as 3 cards. Players begin with their entire deck (ie: those three cards) in hand and have no library (players don't lose when they fail to draw a card because of this). Due to the extremely limited number of play options given with their small deck size, games are calculated, rather then played, with an absolute determined winner (or a tie). Each player plays a match of two games against each other player who submitted - once going first, and once going second. Wins, losses, and ties for each of those two games are calculated by the moderator and players. The actual fun of the game comes from trying to decide which cards you will be playing.
The All Blind Tournament is a four-week XCB tournament, which spans all card blind formats and embraces a progressive anti-metagame. For each week of the four-week tournament, a new XCB format is announced for players to enter. Players compete for points (similiar to the PotM points for previous XCB games) each round. At the end of the four-week tournament, the player who has accumulated the most points over the four weeks wins the tournament, and receives a real-world prize.
1) WhammeWhamme vs. tomsloger: Tokens lose to Leyline/Karakas.
6-0
3) WhammeWhamme vs. piato: I *think* Inky + Karakas forces him to take too much time durdling to defend himself (since it outraces "spam lifegain" and bounces Mayor, he HAS to give me a free token) from my might Inky flat-up killing him.
6-0?
4) WhammeWhamme vs. mogg: On the play, Inky is too fast. On the draw, Inky is still too fast, but he can Sphere us both out of the game.
4-1
5) WhammeWhamme vs. sockfresh: He's cold to turn 1 Inky.
6-0
only remaining matchup is 4 vs 5
i believe its 3-3
when sockfresh is on the play, silence lock is out before mogg can play anything relevant. if mogg plays sphere, he locks himself out and store overcomes
when mogg is on the play, turn 2 eater of days does the trick.
anyone have any changes?
it looks like whammewhamme is pretty clearly the winner. congratulations!

The Entries
1tomsloger : meek procession
spectral procession / serra's sanctum / leyline of the meek / leyline of the meek / leyline of the meek
this is probably worse than chancellor of the forge. but flying is cool
2WhammeWhamme : inky singularity
Karakas / Leyline of Singularity / Lion's Eye Diamond / Unburial Rites / [c]Inkwell Leviathan
karakas/leyline is one of the best combos in xcb. led/rites is another.
3piato : bump in the night
City of Traitors / Mox Emerald / Mayor of Avabruck / Beast Within / Elixir of Immortality
elixir/beast. my favorite.
4mogg : smoke before fire
Eater of Days / Gods' Eye, Gate to the Reikai / Mishra's Workshop / Smokestack / Sphere of Resistance
i dont like the sphere here. it keeps you from the rest of your deck.
5sockfresh : white noise
isochron scepter / silence / knight of the meadowgrain / ancient tomb / ication store
i like the idea of knight to counteract the life loss, but i think a different threat with city of traitors wouldve worked better
