Predict the Post-Unban Modern Metagame at the Magic Online Championships!

Update: the contest has closed and winners have been notified. Check out the breakdown of submissions here, and go here if you want to be notified about future metagame prediction contests.

So, you may have heard about this: Jace, The Mind Sculptor and Bloodbraid Elf are both unbanned in Modern.
Many people have speculated about how this might impact the format, but talk is cheap and there haven't been any premier tournaments in the post-unban environment with which to actually test these speculations... until now.

The Magic Online Championships (MOC) on March 2 will be a high-level event with an elite field of top pros and MTGO grinders - and the 14 rounds of Swiss will include 8 rounds of Modern, for our first glimpse at the new post-Jace, post-Bloodbraid world of Modern.

Think you know how the newly unleashed cards will affect the format? Commit to your prediction in the MOC prediction game and you could $40 in MTGO bot credit from Cardhoarder, or a foil Bloodbraid Elf - your choice.

And keep an eye on this space for a breakdown of community submissions next week!
