I recently gave an Extended Tron list to a few friends, and the only one who trusted me enough to play it got second in the Chicago PTQ. I wasn't kidding when I was talking about going big in Extended.

This is the story behind the deck I played in LA, and why I would suggest it for anyone looking for a deck in the new metagame. It turns out I was still about 3 cards off a really great decklist main, and 4 or 5 for the board.
