Vintage Super League
The Vintage Super League is a weekly streaming feature of an all-star cast of Magic players competing in Vintage.[1] It was created by Randy Buehler and Shotgun Lotus in 2014.
Rather than have a singular tournament in which competitors play simultaneously, the Vintage Super League only has five matches every week, but every match is streamed live with play-by-play commentary by other competitors in the league. The League features ten players and is played round-robin, with every player playing every other player once in a best-of-three matchup. Every competitor has to play the same deck for three consecutive weeks, but is allowed to switch decks after the three weeks are up. Their opponents for each week is known, though their deck is unknown for the first week. After the round-robin section is complete, a playoff between the top 4 players is held. Players may change their decks before the playoff as well.
The first season of the Vintage Super League included the following players:
- Randy Buehler
- Eric Froehlich
- Bob Maher
- Tom Martell
- Steve Menendian
- Chris Pikula
- Luis Scott-Vargas
- Rich Shay
