Harlan was working that Narset like a boss. I'm rooting for Harlan to spike it as always.
Apparently, off camera James Buckingham won an Esper mirror by ultimate-ing Ashiok and Narset in the same turn, because sure why not? In terms of the question of whether this warrants the card going up in value or actually fulfilling the value that it already sits at, I am leaning towards the latter. Ojutai has been dominating the last two weeks and just now spiked to $30. Narset has been sitting at over $30 for a while now. She may be a planeswalker, but she needs to earn her over $30 price tag still. This weekend is a step towards that.

One of these day I have to get myself organizized.
I love watching heroic decks. I actually tuned into the coverage only to see if there were a heroic deck doing well. It was a treat seeing Merriam win the event.
I hate heroic as well. Very annoying. 4 Foul Tongues will be in my 75. (Since my LGS has a lot of people that are fairly wealthy and drop moola on the winning decks next day)

The Foul Tongues didn't look that spectacular for GFabs in that game against Ross Merriam. They appeared rather easy to play around.
Thoughtseizes work for things not on the table. Crackling doom doesn't fit in Abzan. Foul Tongue is pretty good against Esper as well. Either way, removal needs to be all over the place in my deck, along with at least a couple Sac effects. The bant deck seems pretty damn sweet, but I don't enjoy playing heroic on either side of the table.
Sure the % was very close but you should know if it's a sure thing or not because standings are freely available. Only has himself to blame for that error. His deck looked really good though so well done to him for that just too bad we didn't get to see him in top 8.
It seemed like Narset might have made more impact as a control mirror sideboard card. So looks like her fate might be the same as Nissa, $20 sideboard option. Just pushes up the cost of having the best 75 of a given deck.
I haven't talked to Harlan about it, given the feel bads, but I think the problem with him drawing was the person that cut him out of the top 8 was the person he drew with. I think his opponent's breakers got better by playing him and so that messed up the math. He's been making a mad push for the player's championship so this is a huge bummer.

But I still hate heroic with a passion.
