We may not have the playerbase in Australia for a Week of Nightmares,
but a couple of weekends ago we did manage to have a
SuperHappyFunSlide weekend: two back-to-back constructed tournaments,
a 3+F and a 2+F, over two days in Melbourne.
We had a great turnout from both interstate travellers (thanks to
Julian and Steve for making the trip), and the double-header weekend
was a great way of drawing out some more far-flung Victorian players
who wouldn't normally make the trip. Special kudos go to Steve H, who
threw in a box of boosters as prize support simply for the, er, non-
standard name of the tourney.
Saturday's 3+F was a wipeout from my perspective; I managed maybe one
VP all day, but you can thank Troglodytia's no-show in a couple of
rounds for that... stupid Samedi. The standout for the day was Jason
Ryan's Baali vote deck, which scored 4.5 VP and 2 GW in the
preliminary rounds, then swept the finals.
Final seating was as follows.
Jason Ryan (2 GW, 9.5 VP + 1 GW / 5 VP in final)
Steve Harris (2 GW, 8 VP)
Eli Bateman (1 GW, 5 VP)
Ivor Blockley (1 GW, 5 VP)
Justin Shearer (1 GW, 4VP)
A shout-out here to Eli, who rarely makes finals but often comes
close. His stealthy-bleedy goodness did him proud here, although not
enough to withstand the Baali.
