Well a few weeks aqgo me and my Friend Chris Compton went to Colorado springs CO for a tourney. We Brought Brian Hunter along with us and this was Chris’ 6 month return tourney. He went 4-2 and was really happy, he took the time off work to go to this last Greeley tourney. We bring Brian with us along with my Friend Cody Jewell, we all come in big hopes of placing high.

Decks:
Me-HD Pods My Way
WYS MY way(I’ll post this soon)
Chris-TDIGWATT
HB Pods Flip
Cody-Scum2k Done Right
EBO Pods
Brian-Lightsaber Combar
Toothfairy Done Right (Lol his WYS)

Tom McGee YMSYL Garrison drains

He starts of all the YMSYL stuff. I start my norma stuff. He starts off by getting Vader and Tarkin to Hoth early. I get Captain Han with Chewbacca Protector to Kessel, The outrider with Dash and Melas to Tatooine and a palace raider in patrol craft with Talon Karrde and Mirax to the Spaceport DB. He drops a walker and a character to their and tramples th patrol craft. He then misses a trample on Talon Karrde cause of his game text, I drop more characters and we fight. I Out of commission some cards and retrieve some. He never gets anything big going and its agreed he hat the worst draw ever…well until he played his deck the second time.
FW +19 2(19)
Props: Tom was fun to play with.
Slops: not too interactive.

Cody Jewell EBO pods

Hmm ok time to play one of the three people I came with. He starts Ebo podracing with ANSB and I start Phantom menace instead of watto’s box. First turn I stall Anakin’s pod and draw a 6. I draw some cards and we lose to visage. He pulls sites and plays some sites and we lose to visage. My turn we draw he draws pretty low and I draw a 5 draw a few mor cards and lose to visage. He continues setting up and then we lose to visage. He step backwords and I grab it. I draw a 6 and he draws low. I deploy Vader flip and make him lose to visage. He gets ebO out and naboo but doesn’t have force for ships. He loses to visage. I activate and draw race destiny…I have enough to win. I retrieve my pile and draw one card its Maul. He loses to visage. He plays some ships to Naboo and lets me go. I drain put maul in his ship there (tatooine maul) and let him go. He drops corran horn on spiral initiates organized attacks and I havta lose maul and card from hand. I drain him out.
FW +34 4(53)
Props: To me for handing him his @$$…its gonna be a long 3hour ride home.
Slops: To his deck for not doing….anything.

Brian Hunter WYS

Well he is Playing WYS, I am playing HD My WaY….i get wrecked. Well it’s a long game and playing the #1 rated player in the world its kinda hard to get any offense going. I flip and win the podrace, he It could be worses but I its worse for a bit and he doesn’t have his it’s a hit. He retrieves a lot and then I drop mara and cross luke to the dark side. He attacks mara and crossed luke with phylo and han. He hits crossed luke and I hit han and mara survives the battle. He has palace raiders everywhere and this is where it all gets weird. I drop tatooine maul in his ship to tatooine. He just lost kessel to a force drain. Now he goes from draining for free retrieving with celebration and force draining plus one at his docking bays to a canceled celebration no forcedrain bonus, menace fades no longer suspending maras +1 for saber and needs to pay for battle plan. Well he gets a lands his ship and embarks melas, next turn he launches then he beats up on maul and drains me out
FL –21 4(32).
Props: Maul for being able to influence the game sooo much
Slops: umm I didn’t win…what a surprise =P

Tom Meade Light Saber Combat dark

He is playing Lightsaber Combat and my WYS is setting up too slow. He gets maul with a presence of the force to the core and is draining me for three. All game he pays to drain me but I fail to mount anything to fight back. Late game I lower his differential as much as possible but winning is out of the question.
FL –14 4(18)
Props: To Tom for winning
Slops: To me for losing

Well the competition seems pretty hard here with only 10 players and about 4 people that I am worried about playing.

Tony Fanchi Senate naboo drains

He starts off Senate…. I have never beaten senate. He flips about third turn and I flip right after. I set uyp docking bay drains but never get the celebration going. Not much happened. He drained me with vader and Blizzard f4 at battle plains I drained, not tooo interactive. In the end I won, can’t remember tooo much about this game.
FW +25 6(43)
Props: I won
Slops: Can’t remember much about this game, it was already about 11:00 pm and I had not much sleep

Well final game now and I am tired as hell. Being 3-2 I really need to win cause going 3-3 sounds like a bad idea.

Chris Compton Hidden Base Pods

Hmm he beat me the last time I played this and it’s a bad matchup for me. I decide not to play watto’s box but I start security precautions. He flips pretty early and the podrace is going nowhere fast since he step backwords me and keeps drawing low. I get maul in his ship and probe his system, he lose 9 force I flip and he lose to visage the rest of the game. He dropped luke with lightsaber to fight vader, I try to duel but he cancels it, he initiates and hits vader. I vader’s eye and I have you now and draw 5 5 6 1 he loses luke and a lot more and I lose vader, next turn I no escape to get vader drop him and he continues to lose to visage. I end up with a lot of cards in hand and he just staks his last two life force on the podrace that never ended while I only had one destiny on sebulba.
FW +22 8(65)

Props: to the dark jedi for being pimps everywhere.
Slops: to the podrace for not ending.

So I end up in third behind brian hunter and chris fanchi. I played all three people who I rode up to the tourney with and beat chris and cody.

Props-
Chris for Driving
Pre-Tourney Burger King for being soo good
Post-Tourney Taco Bell for also being sooo good.
Brian for winning,
The fact when you are so tired anything is funny, we kept laughing the whole ride back.

Slops-
To Chris rolling down all the windows and locking them at 3 am while going 95 down the highway….freaking cold.
Chris and Cody for both going 1-5

And the best line of the day came from Cody “CLOSE THE DOOR YOU’RE LETTING GREELEY IN!!!!” that’s just classic duds.
