Lots of results from this past weekend, including the largest Open ever at StarCityGames.com Open Series: Indianapolis!
Congratulations to Adam Liu, winner of the massive 774-player Standard Open! Adam was piloting Naya Humans, returning the archetype to the top slot.
Congratulations also to Alex Binek, winner of the Legacy Open, with U/W/R Counterbalance. This is two in a row for the previously underrepresented archetype, and might be signaling a shift in the Legacy metagame.

There was also a Classic in Columbia, South Carolina, this past weekend, and that tournament was taken down by an old favorite, U/W/R Flash, in the hands of Christopher Yarbrough. Congratulations Christopher!
There were also a pair of large Standard Grand Prix this past weekend!
Grand Prix Verona in Italy may have taken place in the home of the Montagues and Capulets, but a Kasnitski was the name that came out on top! Congratulations to Mike Krasnitski on his victory with Junk Reanimator!

Grand Prix Rio de Jenero was notable for several reasons, not the least of which was the meeting in the finals of two friends... and the subsequent consession of one to the other so that the winner, Jose Fransisco da Silva, could earn the requisite Pro Points to make Gold level. Congratulations, Jose!
