I really don't understand why the other threads were archived, but if I am doing something wrong I will gladly stop. If a mod wants to delete this and PM me about it, I would finally understand. Whatever, I know there are people who will look to see who won the EA Beatdown this morning, and here goes.

It was the most fun I have had at a tournament, maybe ever. Skinless was down from Augusta, he is easily the best person I have played against. Truly a great human being. BeastBoy123 was swinging for 50 with one character on turn four with Thunder Gang, a sick cross between Injustice Gang big hand and Thunder Tactics. (Makaveli won the Costa Mesa PCQ with it, the decklist is up in Premiere Events.) There was a Twisted Spider Stall deck that BeastBoy123 SHOULD HAVE NEVER shared, since it pwned my AGL in the final four (with my Q Field of course!). Then, in the final, immortaldragoon won an EA Beatdown with one-cost army characters... by somehow avoiding Puppet Master, Cardiac, Rogue or Gambit, Sunfire, Mimic... and winning with Tattooed Man! An underdog triumph for the ages.

You have the cardlist for the Tattoo man deck? I've been wanting to build one for a while and wouldn't mind seeing a decklist.

I am going to write the whole tournament into an article, but I'll post the winner here. It was Ken's deck that Steven piloted to the win:

15 AGL
4 Chomin
3 Faust
3 Xallarap
3 Mikado & Mosha
2 Fiero
1 Tattooed Man, Living Ink

4 No Man
4 Mega Blast
4 Die for Darkseid
4 Cosmic Conflict
4 Trial by Fire
3 Emerald Dawn
2 Ring Has Chosen

hey stu, is this where you got the info for the barn? anyways, congrats man. I do have one suggestion though, membership drive.

1. I was very happy with third place, I didn't win with Tattooed Man. Even I am not that crazy.

2. The Barn Door idea came from Uno, and I was as shocked as anyone to see it win the Card of All Cards.

3. The Tattooed Man is obv just a last gasp option, so I would not focus on it too much. The deck wins without it. In fact, as we now see, the deck wins without alot of stuff. (Like Willworld!)

Im still upset to hear that it lost to AGL . Thats one match I made sure it would always beat, and I didnt have time to tell luke the final changes to the spider stall deck ( or solitare ) which was adding in 2 Capt Boomerangs. But im glad it made someone money.

Seriously how does AGL beat . mikado / puppet / cardiac / gambit or even rogue / sunfire / mimic / and the eventual Ghost Rider is needed .


Maybe he didnt know thats the only matchup where you dont mull for Puppet but Mikados or Cardiac .


anyways sounds like it was a good tournament . How many people where there anyways?

It was a great tournament, a little small... around 20.

The Twisted Spider Stall was deadly against me and my AGL, I'll tell you that. Brian Poole was playing it like clockwork. The only thing I can figure out? Shuffling skills. I guess Steven just cut to eight high drops in a row. Twice!

hey stu im the guy who was playtesting the morlock evasion deck at the tourney, are you comming to the pcq next week

Yo Corn! Thanks for showing me that, I almost have it built from my prize packs.

The PCQ is iffy, the wife comes first.

Since there is no forum for Local Tourneys, Premiere Events would probably be the best place for threads like this.

There must have been something else going on in that thread for it to get mod-chopped.

I've asked Shane about adding another forum for local events such as these... we'll see what happens.

Did you know what the top 8 decks were?

Sure. You know me, I'll go with the flow. (And type it for the third time!)

3 AGL
2 Flying Circus
1 Glock
1 Twisted Spider Stall
1 Thunder Gang

Final Four:

AGL (Steven) vs. Flying Circus (Milton) Damn, I wanted that pairing.

AGL (Me) vs. Twisted Spider Stall (Brian) Ouch.

Then, somehow, AGL beat the Stall... FTW!

Stu to clarify, Brent didn't "win" the PCQ, he split in the quarterfinals.

I know, but you realize it looks the same on the UDE site.

yah but it makes a difference on the 982nd random stubarn thread.

Only when you trolls start throwing poo.
