June 8th Tourney Results

[sojomojo]

Well we just had another great turnout yesterday and I just wanted to say thank you to everyone that attended. Hope to see you all again this Saturday and hopefuly a few new faces.

Congrats to Chris Norton for taking home the 1st place win over Jay Algarin who took 2nd. Jeffrey Hatab took 3rd followed by John Murin in 4th.

Chirs Played a new Wizard Aggro/Control deck that really whiped the board with most of the decks. The only deck to give him a run for his money seemed to be Scotts Lady Phe’Ronde Mass Destruction deck. The match went 2/1 Chris but Scott's cycling of fire elemental really gives his oppenents something to deal with. It was looking like Scott might defeat Chris in the 1st round or at least goto a draw but while in OT on thier 3 game Scott conceeded to Chris giving Chris the win vs. attempting to draw it out to damage.

Jeffrey had a bad day today which was due to what he referred to as being lazy. He just wasn't prepared and through together a wizard deck at the last miniute. Overall he still did well but being lazy may have cost him some valuable ranking points.

Jay Algarin, who had been crawling his way up in ranks now finds himself in 5th place. Jay ran his faithfull wizard burn deck and defeated Jamie in round 2. Jamie used my Grimus control deck which should of won. lol You got lucky Jay. lol jk

John Murin really gave a good showing today with his Lady/Archer deck. It was great to see something other than wizards. His archers destoryed Jerrmy's Glye deck which was thought to make top 3 today but both Archer's and Grimus control said no to that. Well Jerrmy its time for some upgrades..

With that said it was another great tournament. From the looks of it the tournaments seem to be growing. So hopefull next week we should see about 10 people and hopefully at least 8 for this Saturday.

Yes excellent reporting of tourneys I will be interested to see what shows up this saturday. Now that the prize format has changed a bit I have more gusto to spend the gas money. Cya all this weekend.

I really like these tourney reports as well! I hope we get a lot of people at Saturdays tournament! They are always more fun when there are a lot of different players with a diversity of decks! If anyone could attend, it would be AWESOME! I look forward to tomorrow!

Well, you better expect quite a fight Jay. I'm currently working on improvements to existing decks, and noticing new things as I do so. I'm going to try a couple things out, but once I get them working fluently you'd better expect 2nd place in the next tourney. ;D

Ooh, I love the polite trash talking going on in Mass. Around us uncultured Windy slime, it sounds more like ur gay, and f.u., and someone making a b**** of someone else. You guys can talk to me...tell me your secrets...I won't tell anyone else...I promise...or use it against you...thing of me as a fly on the wall.

About how may people do you regularly get at your tournaments? Just wondering...

[shockyakaglye]

at the tourneys we get like 6-8 but saturday we had 10

[Keith Katsikas]

I hope people understand that if there are less than 8 players the results DO NOT add into the rankings. You guys need to get a few more players. You ranks might now be as good as you think, or as good as they should be, because you do not have the players.

Kieth we don't post any or enter any under 8. So there shouldn't be any ranking issues. Mondays that we get like 6 haven't been entered because of it but thats why we run it just a league. I've hope I've made it clear to the people on Monday that they aren't getting points but if not I will make sure I do today. Thursday we wait until we get 8 which is why the events run later but so far we've pulled off 8 each week.

Sojo out!

[Keith Katsikas]

Thanks for the clarification. I just don't want players thinking they are being ranked when they are not. That might cause some hard feelings.

[spiller]

The key to raising your ranking is playing in several tournaments. As the game grows, the number of stores holding tournaments should grow as well. Most of the top players are from the NE because their has been a tournament almost every week and now there are two each week. The top few players are attending 2 tournaments weekly and as long as they do well, they will be hard to knock off their top spots.
