Congratulations to Ryan Courtios for taking down this 2015's Real Idaho State MTG Championships series. His path to get there saw him winning the Trial at PhoenixFire games and earning himself a round one bye in the States on April 4th. Anyone questioning if a bye at an event isn't worth it, let that argument be put to rest!
The Final round of States was Abzan Aggro from Ryan and mono-red goblins. Both decks are extremely competitive but true to the result abzan aggro has a slight edge.
SO HERE THEY ARE..........
