Earlier today, Wizards of the Coast announcedMagic: The Gathering's Multiplayer Brawl Championship that will take place in Grand Prix Richmond later this month. While some fans appreciate Wizards' support to Magic's new casual format, others, such as those in our Facebook fan page, think it's just a weak attempt to give life to an already-dead format. Now, the legendary Magic brewer Seth, a.k.a. Saffron Olive shows which side he's on.

"Planning on winning the Brawl Championship by being the only person to sign up," Saffron Olive replied to Magic Senior Designer Gavin Verhey's tweet.

This reminds us of the Multiplayer Brawl participant at Grand Prix Barcelona earlier this year, who won by default for being the only one who joined the event.

Grand Prix Richmond's Brawl Championship will probably have more participants than that. Brawl actually looks like a fun format so I hope Wizards of the Coast will continue to support it even though there are players who would rather play Commander.

Would you join a Brawl Championship event?
