Tournament report

Well let's give this another try, and see if I can make it stick this time. Friday was a good night, with ten players joining in the Alter Ego tournament. We even had a new player join us I threw the players a little curve before beginning: there was only 1 copy of each Alter Ego card to choose from! Each player got to choose from the pile (like a draft), so if someone had already chosen the one you designed for might have already been taken.

I chose Superman as my Alter Ego, with 75 endurance. I was playing my new Outsiders deck, which had performed really well the first few times I played. Sadly between my match-ups and my draws, I was only able to win one of my four games. Seeing the different match-ups play out with the different Alter-Egos added in made things really interesting, and from all reports everyone would be interested in playing with them again.

After four rounds of play we ended up with Harry as the top dog this time around, with Jordan taking second place. It's always cool to see the younger guys take the the honors. Congratulations.

How did the tourney on Friday go? I was out of town. I don't think Charles was there either.

Harry said...

Uh... it was a no go.

Why is that Harry?

Scott said...

I left somewhere around 6:30 because no one was there except me and Pascal. Did anyone else come later?

Well we'll play on the 29th, everyone mark your calendars.

By the way, can anyone help me with a copy or two of "Call in a Favor"? It's the last card I need to complete my collection...

Roy said...

Sorry can't help u out with any "Call in a Favor". That's all u need? as in ur done? u have every card? That is so cool!
Hey what about those uber rare MEQ cards? Ha ha now u have to get those!

Obsidian3D said...

The final six can stay uber-rare. I'm not likely to ever be willing to pay the prices they command...which isn't surprising since there are only two copies of each one floating around. I'll content myself to having at least one copy of all the other MEQ cards instead.

Hey Charles, are we on for this Friday? If so, what's the format? Thanks.
