Sesongens andre Open ble spilt søndag 1. oktober. Her finner du metagamet, resultatene og decklistene fra sluttspillet.
Metagame
32 spillere møtte opp på Escape med til sammen 25 ulike erketyper, og ingen erketype var representert med mer enn tre kopier.
På forrige Open opptok aggro-deckene en uvanlig stor andel av metagamet. Denne gangen ser vi en ganske annen fordeling med hele 13 kontroll-decker. De var også ganske forskjellige: Jeskai Control (to kopier), Esper Gifts, Eternal Command, G/B Tron, Gift Shift, Grixis Control, Lantern Control, Paradox Atlas, Taking Turns, U/B Scarab God, U/W Control og U Tron.

Resultater etter fem runder

- Gøran Frost (12p)
- Erlend Olav Hegni (12p)
- Jan Kristian Hellan (12p)
- Fredrik Lindh (11p)
- Alexander Abrosimov (11p)

- Steffen Kipperberg-Hellandsvik (10p)
Topp åtte
Topp åtte bestod av hele åtte ulike erketyper: to aggressive lister i form av B/W Eldrazi og U/G Merfolk, én kombo-representant i Titan Breach, og fem ganske forskjellige kontroll-strategier ved Jeskai Tempo, Lantern Control, Taking Turns, U/B Scarab God og U/W Control.
I finalen stod det mellom de to Open-kjempene Alexander Abrosimov (B/W Eldrazi) og Erlend Olav Hegni (Titan Breach), som før denne turneringen hadde fem invitasjoner, tre Invitational-finaler og én mestertittel mellom seg. Til slutt var det Erlend som gikk seirende ut mens Alexander måtte ta til takke med en foreløpig ledelse i kampen om Open-poeng.
