[raw][rev_slider gpboston][/raw]

Team Wizard's Tower for GP Boston will feature 7 players from the Ottawa, Ontario region - we'll all be making the trip down to Boston to battle in the Modern Grand Prix this weekend.

In addition, many of Team MTGCanada's players will be battling this weekend - looking to score some last minute pro points for this season!

Some thoughts from the players:

Ted: Was just gonna play Splinter Twin up until about 11:30pm the night before.. then Phil recommended this deck and so I played it. It's super powerful and a ton of fun to maneuver. It does seem a bit prone to mulligans, and without Birthing Pod in play, it can be somewhat inconsistent

Phil: Modern sucks
