PPTQ Iloilo City Top 8 Decks


Here are the Top 8 decklists of the recently-concluded Preliminary Pro Tour Qualifier Iloilo held at Pro Reis Place. I took the role of the assistant judge on this event with Judge Reuben as the main head judge. The PPTQ was attended by 22 players so it was a 5 rounds of Swiss with Top 8 Playoffs. The eventual winner was Paolo Alvarez from Cebu where he piloted a modified Boros Angels deck. His Finals’ opponent was my teammate Oliver Mastilero with Golgari Midrange as his deck of choice. They both agreed to just give the invite to Paolo as he is willing to travel to the RPTQ. Here below is Paolo’s winning decklist for Boros Angels:
