Top four ended up being Jason Green (Morlock's w/Last Stand), Mark Slack (Skrull-duggery), Gary Hewitt (Doom/Injustice Gang), and Joe Bryan (Check-In). Dair Grant (Faces of Evil) and myself (AGL) just missed the cut because of tie-breakers. Gary's deck was the only deck to go undefeated on the day, all the way up to the semi-finals, but that's where his luck ended. The semi-finalists all chose a "best of one" format instead of the default "best of three". Gary's deck didn't let him see a character until turn 4... and it was an underdrop. Too little, too late. In the end it was Mark and Jason - who I believe arrived together to the tournament. The trophy went to Jason's Morlocks, whose Last Stands and life gain just proved to be too much for the aggro-Skrulls to overcome. Congrats Jason!

I can't believe someone showed up with Rat's Laugh and everyone was OK with that. How did he not top 4? Did he not know the deck well enough? Get absolute trash draws? Get matched up against IG in the first round or get blown out by AGL or something in a turn three win? |

Rat's Laugh did terrible. It was pretty much how you described it, one game was a turn 3 aggro loss; one game it was DESTROYED by IG hand-fill (terrible matchup for it); and one game it didn't get Phantom Stranger until like turn 6, so it's engine wasn't working at all. There was also a game against Phantom Phone Booth where the Phantom Zone was used to prevent recursion of burn effects. I don't remember who pulled that one out. I actually tried to convince the Last Laugh player (my friend Eric) to play the IG handfill deck that I brought with, but he wasn't comfortable playing a deck he'd never played before. My variant that I built, and brought was this: 4x Captain Boomerang, George Harkness 4x IQ, Ira Quimby (sorry Ego Gem!) 4x Lex Luthor, Nefarious Philanthropist - mulligan for this or a 2 drop and a search card. 4x The Joker, Headline Stealer 4x Felix Faust, Soulless Mysic 4x Circe, Evil Enchantress 3x Scarecrow, Psycho Psychologist 2x Abra Kadabra, Magical Rouge 4x Secret Files 4x Gang-Up 4x Criminal Mastermind 4x Home Surgery (keep Lex around) 4x Acrobatic Dodge (keep Lex around) 4x Death of the Dream (stop Faces, TNB, etc.) 4x Pathetic Attempt (keep Lex around) 3x Omnipotence (for the decks that I couldn't think of!) I played this against his Last Laugh deck the night before and won 5/5 games. He didn't think anyone else would bring Handfill though, and tried his luck. I should have played this myself, but I wanted the fastest deck possible because I was running the event and needed to be the first done everyone round. That's why I chose AGL. With AGL, you know if you've won or lost by turn 4! |

There are things I like better about Gary's variant of Handfill (Code White was super-tech); but I don't understand the inclusion of All too Easy. I'd rather stick to the game plan of: "stall to your burn characters." That's why my variant had Acro-Dodge over All too Easy (my original runs Power Siphon, but I couldn't run that here). |

No Lost City? I would think Checkmate/Brotherhood or Inhumans/Brotherhood would be pretty good in this format. |

Yeah this kind of blows my mind too. Checkmate + Freedom Force with Lost City and Nth Metal is a cool one (especially with MEV being legal). I'm a big fan of Checkmate and B.P.R.D. as well. I'm also pretty surprised that nobody was running Chicken and by the utter lack of MCG cards in these decks. It's a little disappointing not seeing anything too off the wall especially in the stall realm. I'd feel pretty comfortable putting the stall/control deck my friend and I built for the event in NYC up against just about anything in this tourney except Rat's Laugh. I just really miss seeing the occasional rogue-type deck pop up in these things
