Welcome back to another edition of War Torn Front's Blog! This week I will be covering Krier's Standard event along with the mini Grand Prix Trial here at War Torn Front on Saturday. After that, we take a look at Commander League's week 6 results.
Saturday, War Torn Front played host to a GPT for Louisville, Kentucky. Although we did have trouble firing the event, eventually 10 players showed up to do battle in Post-Theros Standard. After a quick few rounds, Navdeep and Big Boros took down the event! This was only the beginning of things to come that weekend.
Sunday, Krier's Standard event fired. Thanks to Josh Romano, I have a rundown of the event. Navdeep made his way into the top 4 with Anthony Moreno on BW Control, Josh Romano on RDW , and Liz Bryant on RDW. Navdeep beat Josh 2-1, while Anthony took down Liz 2-0. The finals ended with Navdeep and Big Boros standing tall after a 2-0 victory over Anthony Moreno. Great Job Navdeep! Heres to a successful run at States! It seems like your on to something big!
Aside from these events, The next few weeks are jam-packed for Theros and Standard! This coming weekend is MTG States held in Santa Clara. This big Standard event promises all sorts of fun and prizes, so go out and play! Make sure you support your local store with shirts and merchandise from that shop! Oct 19th plays host to a PTQ in San Diego and Cupertino for Born of the Gods. This sealed event is one of the few ways to break onto the Pro Circuit! So make sure to mark your calenders and watch MTGNorCal for more info. Also, make sure to pre-reg to ensure you have your spot for the PTQ! If you are not going to the PTQs that day, make sure to stop by at your local Game Store and battle for a cool playmat and packs!In addition, come bring your inner hero and Face the Hydra!

Theros Release results and Commander League Week 5 Results
Welcome back, War Torn Front faithful. This week We will go over all of the Theros release weekend results, plus a Krier's Modern event that fired on Sunday, Sept 29th. After that we will take a look at the new standings for league as we rapidly approach the halfway point for the Commander League.
Starting things off, Kriers played host to it's traditional Magic release event, with a Win-a-Box! This event drew most of the Modesto crowd for 5 rounds of Swiss, a top 8 draft, and finally a winner to claim a box of Theros. This past Friday, Josh Romano and Jeremiah Hickman split the top 8, each walking away with a cool 27 packs of Theros, a free draft, and their sealed pools. The top 8 consisted of Josh, Jeremiah, Navdeep, Ryan Owens, Kuang Chen, and Daniel Duron along Kevin Mao and Tom Oliveira. Thanks to Daniel Duron for keeping me up to date on our final two competitors for Krier's Top 8. I would like to thank Josh for this heads up. Keep supplying info to me guys and I will make sure it sees the just forum to be viewed in.
Next, War Torn Front played a host to a Win-a-Box for Theros as well. 22 players showed up to battle 5 rounds of Swiss, into a Top 8 draft. After heads were sent flying, David Myers emerged victorious with Richard Montoya taking 2nd. Thank you guys for coming out. It is your continued support that helps us fire these events and getting you guys insane prize payouts.
Finally, Sunday Krier's played host to a Modern event post-Theros release. 10 players showed up ready to test Theros effect on the Modern scene. Emerging victorious from this was Jason Reed over Placido Galvin in the finals. Jason walked away with 5 packs of Modern Masters and Placido with 3. All of this only for $5! If there is a place to be on Sundays, it has to be Krier's Cards and Comics!
