24 players in Dallas, Texas on April 27. Reported by Kelly Lyons:
The Gulf Coast Roast in Dallas was a Colorado avalanche. Darby Keeney came to town and cooled the South with his Rocky Mountain Way.

Here is Darby's Grand Prix decklist: “Defy the Edict of Worms”
“The deck is much thicker than I would like, but it's currently formatted for the Gulf Coast's untimed finals format. The deck will eventually get better as the crypt rounds out.” (For some additional comments on the deck, check out the VEKN forum post.)
