There have been several questions about the summer league prize breakdown and the specific rules for the Legacy Creature Challenge. Let's clear 'em up!
Summer League Prizes
There will be a top eight with trophies and a prize buffet similar to Spring League. In addition there will be a trophy and prize for the player with the most events attended without making top eight. These nine players will be invited to a special tournament. The top ranked player will be rewarded with the bye the first round, but the bye will go to the player with the worst record as normal in the later rounds. It will be a four round swiss, not single elimination, and the top three finishers will receive either a Gideon, Jace Mind Sculptor, or Sarkhan the Mad (1st place gets first pick).
Legacy Creature Challenge Rules
So here are the main points of this format:
1)Legacy means every magic set except the Unglued and Unhinged humor sets are legal. Got some Two-Headed Giant of Foriys from Alpha? They're legal. Got a Zodiac Rooster from Portal Three Kingdoms? Rock on.
2)Creature Challenge means all cards in your deck must be either creatures or common lands. No instants. No sorceries. No planeswalkers. No enchantments unless it is Lucent Liminid which is also a creature. No artifacts unless they are also creatures.
3)This is NOT tribal. There is a limit of ten per creature type between your maindeck and sideboard combined. Like goblins? That's cool, but you can only have ten total cards in your deck and sideboard with creature type goblin. If a creature has more than one type than it limits your numbers for both types. Playing four bloodbraid elves? You can only have a total of six other elves in your deck and sideboard AND you can only have six other berserkers.
4)Banned List? Yes, there are a couple no nos..
Lands:
Mishra's Factory
Ancient Citadel
Darksteel Citadel
Great Furnace
Seat of the Synod
Tree of Tales
Vault of Whispers
Creatures:
Beloved Chaplain
Commander Eesha
Disciple of the Vault
Hermit Druid
Jeweled Bird
Lin Sivvi, Defiant Hero
Tempest Efreet
Timmerian Fiends
Worldgorger Dragon
5)A few reminders: Other than the four rules above, this is normal magic so 60 card deck minimum, 15 card sideboards, matches are best two out of three, there is a limit of four copies of any card other than basic land, etc... Please let me know if you have any questions.

Congrats to Andy, Evan, Jacob, Amanda!,Captain,Jay, and Geoffrey for their great adaptation skills in making the most of new decks and new rules. Thanks to everyone who came out and mafe this a huge fun event!
Zen Block Multiplayer=Massive Fun
Don Dahl's playtest group put three in the winner's circle. Dahl narrowed the gap to just three points behind Gelli. Davis moved safely into 7th. Jacob made one of his rare appearances count. Newcomer Jolly demonstrated serious multiplayer skillz. Stormy got solidified his top four spot and Marsi continued his late run to the top 8.
Top 5 Standard Finishers
The Top Two tightened again as Don Dahl narrowed the gap on Joe Gelli. Cory Hill kept moving up the standings and Andrew Davis snuck ever closer to a top 8 berth. Charles Murphy made his first final photo and ensured that vampires will have to continue to be on top players radars.
Worldwake Gameday Fearless Five Finishers
Top 8 in league standings saw a sizeable shakeup as Cory Hill and Rick Nuzum made big jumps. Michael Mayo and Cody Church are just outside the magic 8 spot and don't count out the diabolical Robin Dial as he picks up points in bunchs as we head towards the final few weeks of Spring League.
Top 4 Zen Block Multiplayer Finishers
Aaron Blomberg shows that years of multiplayer practice pay off. Dahl closes the gap on first place. Mr. Mayo sneaks back into the top 8. Amanda Davis looked innocent and unassuming until it was too late for her opponents round after round. Nicely played one and all!
First FNM Top Four
Gelli puts up a top finish to match infinite participation points. Captain Thompson returns triumphantly from her Olive Garden Exile. Victor also returns to the top four after an overhaul of his trusty vamps. Cory meanwhile may have unleashed a monster with the new Open the Vaults deck...
Worldwake Box Tournament Top 8
The top 8 was a great mix of longtime and new players. Nuzums took two slots as did the Buchanans. Recenct addition Robin Dial represented the Columbia Magic League well. The Double D and Andrew Davis connection remained strong and Mr. "Double F" Marsi added another top 8 to go with his Champs near miss.
Top 4 Two Headed Giant Teams and Updated League Standings
A great tournament and a great top 4. Allen and Jeff Folk said preperation, smeperation as their last minute team up took first. Don Dahl dispalyed the classic silver medal face but moved closer to first overall. Andrew Davis smiles as he knows he is now in a tie for the all important 8th and last playoff spot. The Driggers continued the succes of Columbia Magic League members. They also were the top finishing couple (Mr. Mayo and I are just friends...)Stormy made a triumphant return with Karen in tow to keep hopes for first place alive.
Congratulations League Winners
Congrats Billy, Joe, Jay and Greg on making top 4 in the winter league! Congrats Shannon and Victor on winning the ironman awards for most tournaments rocked out at!
