after a nice 5 hour drive i arrived.

we had a total of 6 players, 6 whole players. omg it was great to meet you guys but man 5 hour drive for that was kinda underwhelming.

me- hellfireclub
squire- awesome gk/pact/bird of prey
mike horn- quickfate
other mike- doom heralds control
other westly- good guys
other andrew- punisher fate good guys

so my deck was a pretty much standard hellfire club deck, with some only humans.

round 1- played against other mike. lots of stall action, there came a break in the action when only human, and some blackheart action stopped the stall and i was able to swing a bunch for the win. i did like the interaction with 5 drop talia and puppet master. Only human saved my butt in this matchup

round 2- squire, 3 counterspells on turn 3 put a kibosh on my tutors for the game and i didnt have much of anything to drop on turns 3-5, ragman made sure Blackheart did nothing.

round 3- punisher good guys, blackheart kept the board clear of the small guys, only human made the punisher less intimidating.

round 4- good guys- kinda the same as before, only human made kator hall not that scary. Luck was on my side and he didnt draw mag 7s, or bwahahahas.

3-1 after rounds

finals cut to 2, played against squire, he missed alot of drops. i won the L33t series.

so what did i learn from the whole thing? only human is good. people should play that card. Blackheart is also good.

deck i played looked like

3- courtney ross
2- hellfire initiate
4-sage
1-hellcat
4-mastermind
3-madlyn pryor
2-blackheart
4-shinobi shaw
1- mr sinester
1-magneto
1-Donald Perice
1-Emma frost
1-shabastion shaw

4-join the club
4-army of 1
3- deadly game
3-only human
3-revitalize
1-proud zinco product
4-power and wealth

3- shaw industries
2- hell fire club
1- ego
2- slaughter swamp
1- sewer system

i think that was about it. overall i had a fun time, and the misty mountain was a cool store which had a order of the stick trade in stock.

Jeeze ... 6 people? We get more than that for our Hobby league in St. Louis.

UDE if you're listening... St. Louis (gateway to the west) is a PERFECT spot for an Elite Series. We are centrally located, we have some really nice new stores opening up, and we have a hardcore group thats not afraid to promote the heck out of it.
