V těchto Flash News se podíváme na první ze šňůry team Grand Prix, a to GP Madrid a Santiago. To doplní SCGO Dallas a stále populární Online RPTQ. Nebude chybět i sumář vybraných Weekly Challenges na Magic Online.

1. GP Madrid (Team Constructed)
V Madridu se konalo další GP v populárním týmovém constructed, což je turnaj, kde proti sobě hrají tříčlenné týmy, ve kterých jeden hráč hraje standard, druhý modern a třetí legacy.
Do Madridu si přišlo zahrát 353 týmů, mezi kterými se našlo i několik českých hráčů (potažmo i týmů).
V týmových eventech obvykle platí, že se tu nejvíce daří zkušeným hráčům, což se potvrdilo i tentokrát.
Mezi finálovou čtveřicí bylo plno známých jmen, například dánští Michael Bonde a Thomas Enevoldsen, švédští Joel Larsson a Elias Watsfeldt, či italští Adriano Moscato a Alessandro Lippi. A to nemluvím o tom, že na pátém místě skončili Andra Mengucci, Christiano Calcano a Javier Dominguez, kteří měli špatné pomocné kvůli dvěma porážkám v prvních třech kolech...
Jediný tým v top4 bez předchozích dobrých výsledků na GP byla trojice mladých Angličanů, Christoph Green, Ben Jones, Charles Eliatamby. A právě ti se nakonec radovali z výhry, když ve finále porazili dánské matadory. Jejich výherní kombinace byla Grixis Energy na standardu, Grixis Death's Shadow na modernu a Colorless Eldrazi na legacy.
V coverage byly zveřejněny decklisty prvních šestnácti týmů, takže se můžeme podívat na to, co byly nejúspěšnější decky na jednotlivých formátech.
Standardu stále vévodí Scarab God decky (vítězný tým měl v decku hned celý playset) - v top16 bylo pět UB Controlů a čtyři Grixis Energy decky. Modernu vévodí po odbanování Bloodbraid Elfa Jund, který měl v top16 pět zástupců. Na legacy to byla remíza mezi Grixis Delverem a překvapivě Monored Stompy. Oba decky měly po třech zástupcích v top16.
- Grixis Energy // Grixis Death's Shadow // Colorless Eldrazi
- UB Midrange // RG Scapeshift // Czech Pile
- UB Control // Jund Midrange // Monored Stompy
- Monored Aggro // Glorybringer Jund // Monored Stompy
- Grixis Energy // Jund Midrange // BUG Delver
- Hadana Constrictor // RG Eldrazi // BG Depths
- UB Control // Green Tron // UWr Stoneblade
- Esper Gift // RB Hollow One // RUG Delver
- UB Control // Eldrazi and Taxes // Grixis Delver
- UB Control // Jund Midrange // Grixis Delver
- Grixis Energy // Jund Midrange // Lands
- UB Control // RB Hollow One // Grixis Delver
- UB Midrange // Living End // Storm
- Monored Aggro // Green Tron // Monored Stompy
- Grixis Energy // RG Eldrazi // BUG Control
- Hadana Constrictor // UB Control // UWr Walkers
Pokud se soustředíme na méně obvyklé decky, tak na standardu můžeme zmínit pouze Esper Gift. Mnohem zajímavější to bylo na modernu, kde jsme hned v top4 měli Scapeshift s playsetem Bloodbraidů a Jund s vyšší křivkou, kde byli Confidanti nahrazeni Tireless Trackery a Glorybringery.
Mimo top4 jsme měli dvakrát RG Eldrazi, což je další deck využívající Bloodbraid Elfy, Monowhite Eldrazi and Taxes s playsetem Thraben Inspectorů (na modernu jde opravdu uhrát dobrý výsledek s lecčím), nebo zajímavou verzi UB Controlu s velkým množství discardu a s Jacem a Kalitasem coby hlavními finishery.
Na legacy bych kromě trojice Monored Stompy zmínil zajímavou verzi BG Depthsů s playsety Confidantů a Deathrite Shamanů (midrange plán byl dále podpořen Bitterblossomy a Tarmogoyfy v sidu), UWr Stoneblade, ve kterém byla červená pouze kvůli Blood Moonům a Blastům v sidu (pamatujete na doby, kde se hrály Bolty a Lavamanceři v mainu?), nebo zajímavý UWr Control s Humilitou a čtyřmi různými planeswalkery v mainu.

Závěrem nám zbývá ještě ohlédnutí za českými výsledky. Do druhého dne, kam postoupilo pětačtyřicet týmů, se dostalo pět českých hráčů. Nejlepší z nich byl Lukáš Blohon, který spolu s Enggaardem Larsenem a Martinem Müllerem obsadil patnácté místo. Zajímavé je, že si vybral legačku, kde hrál BUG Control.
Druhý nejlepší český hráč byl Ondřej Stráský, který v tradiční trojici s Ivanem Flochem a Thomasem Hendriksem skončil na sedmadvacátém místě.
Zbylí Češí byli spolu v trojici na sedmatřicátém místě. Byli to Jaroslav Bouček, Štěpán Dudešek a Matěj Belasta.
2. GP Santiago (Team Sealed)

I dnešní druhé GP byla týmová záležitost, nicméně tentokrát šlo o klasické týmové limited (v nové formě, kdy se hraje v prvním dni osm kol a ve druhém šest).
Zahrát si přišlo 261 týmů, což je na Chile tak nějak očekávaný počet. Za pozornost ovšem stojí, že do druhého dne se tu dostalo více týmů než v Madridu, kde bylo opravdu hodně remíz (68 týmů v Santiagu a 53 v Madridu).
Na předních příčkách to po celý víkend vypadalo skoro jako někde na MS, jelikož v top4 jsme mohli vidět snad všechny nejlepší jihoamerické hráče - Paulo Vitor Damo da Rosa, Carlos Romao, Luis Salvatto, Willy Edel, Thiago Saporito, Lucas Berthoud, Guilherme Merjam, či Sebastian Pozzo.
Nakonec si i tyto dva nabíté týmy střetly ve finále, kde trojice Sebastian Pozzo, Luis Salvatto a Lucas Berthoud porazila Wiilyho Edela a Thiaga Saporita, kteří k sobě přibrali neznámého Juliana Souzu.
3. SCG Open Dallas (Modern)

Na populární modern přišlo do Dallasu solidních 822 hráčů. Přísný postupový klíč v podobě sedmi výher z prvních devíti kol splnilo dvaasedmdesát, mezi kterými byl nejhranějším deckem Gifts Storm (sedm hráčů), Jund a Boros Burn (šest hráčů).
V top8 ale všechny překvapil zcela jiný deck - Andrew Wolbers zvítězil s RG Ponzou, když ve finále dokázal porazit Gift Storm, což je jeden z jeho nejhorších matchupů. Za úspěch vděčil zejména - asi už tušíte - Bloodbraid Elfovi, který dal decku úplně nový rozměr, jelikož ho přes Arbor Elfa a Utopia Sprawl můžete dát už ve druhém kole!
Kompletní top32 vypadala takhle:
- RG Ponza
- Gifts Storm
- Gifts Storm
- Infect
- Jund Midrange
- UW Control
- Gb Tron
- Eldrazi Tron
- Jund HollowVine
- Bogles
- Colorless Eldrazi
- UG Eldrazi

- Abzan Company
- Traverse Pyromancer
- Gifts Storm
- UB Tezzerator
- Rabble Jund

- Boros Burn
- Blue Moon
- 5C Humans
- RG Ponza
- 4C Company
- Jeskai Control
- Eldrazi Tron
- Abzan Company
- Gifts Storm
- GB Company
- UB Faeries
V top8 byl kromě vítězné Ponzy nejméně obvyklý deck Infect, ve kterém ale příliš zajímavých techovek nebylo (snad kromě one-of Wild Defiance v mainu).
Na dalších místech to už ale bylo mnohem zajímavější, mohli jsme vidět Jund verzi Hollow One s Vengevinami, zajímavé brew v podobě UG Eldrazi s playsetem Elder Deep-Fiendů, updatovanou verzi 4C Midrange s Traverse the Ulvenwald a Young Pyromancery (hlavní novinkou byli Bloodbraidi), UB Tezzerator s Thopther//Sword kombem (s malou zelenou splashí na sidovky typu Abrupt Decay a Maelstrom Pulse), Domain Zoo (opět šlo o zvláštní verzi, osobně bych hrál Hierarchy a maindeck Soulsy), Blue Moon se Stormbreath Dragony (a Madcap Experimentem v sidu), zajímavá 4C Company s Magusy of the Moon v mainu, ještě zvláštnější GB Company s Fulminator Mage a Lilianou, Heretic Healer, a konečně i zajímavá tapout verze UB Faerií (bez Cryptic Commandů, ale zato s playsetem Liliany).

- 8× UB Midrange
- 4× Grixis Energy
- 3× GW Tokens
- 2× UB Control
- Hadana Constrictor
- UW Gift
- UB Midrange s Vraskou
- WB Vampires
- GW Midrange
- Grixis Energy s Vraskou
- Monored Aggro
- RB Aggro
- Grixis Improvise
Ve finále se naštěstí utkaly zcela jiné decky. "lightdar" představil zajímavou verzi GW Tokenů s velkým počtem vehiclů, kde nejvíce překvapily hned tři Skysovereigny. Druhým finalistou byl Pat Cox s agresivní verzí BUG Constrictora s Hadana's Climbem. Z výhry se nakonec radoval lightdar.
V top8 byl dále UW Gift, UB Control, UB Midrange s Vraskami, WB Vampýři (s vyššá křivkou, která zahrnovala karty jako Sanctum Seeker a Champion of Dusk), zajímavý GW Midrange s playsetem Growing Rites of Itlimoc a klasický UB Midrange.
Menší ústup ze slávy zažil Grixis Energy, ale hlavně Monored Aggro, jekož nejhranější konfigurace s Eathrshaker Khenrou a Ahn-Crop Crashery na aktuálním fieldu není moc dobrá.
Naopak, po dlouhé době byl k vidění na předních příčkách Grixis Improvise s Tezzeretey a Marionette Masterem, se kterým uhrál 7:2 "JPike".

Na modernu se nejvíce dařilo aggrům, když se ve finále střetnuli Humani s Hollow One. Vítězně z tohoto souboje vzešli Humani.
K vidění bylo i několik zajímavých brew. Na pátém místě byli zajímaví "bezbarví" eldrazi s dvojicí emerge bytostí - Elder Deep-Fiend a Distended Mindbender, na osmém updatovaná verze Bant Midrange, kterou hrál Guillaume Matignon na MTGO Chsmpionship, jedenácté místo okupoval zajímavý Grren Tron s Thought-Knot Seery a Eldrazi Temply, dvanácté WR Taxes, ve kterých byl po legacy vzoru Dire Fleet Daredevil a Pia and Kiran Nalaar, třináctý byl UB Control opět v tapout stylu, ale tentokrát trochu rozpolcený s dvojicí Cryptic Commandů a konečně, patnacté místo obsadila zajímavá verze GW Company, která mixovala tradiční value karty (Tireless Tracker, Knight of the Reliquary) s Vizier kombem.
Zbylé decky v top16 byly Bogles, Eldrazi Tron, 5C Humani, Gifts Storm, Ad Nauseam, Grishoalbrand, Amutel Titan a UR Breach Moon.
