Should the German Kid show up from the airport, we will be playing a 1st Edition Sealed Event. Assuming that he wusses out on us... ;D we will do constructed. A full report to follow the event.  |

So last night everyone decided that they wanted to play Search for Vengeance Sealed. One starter and two boosters...
Zombie Joe - Octavius
Josh - Octavius
Van - MacLeod
Thomas "The German Kid" - MacLeod
I am not 100% on the other three, but I know there were 2 copies of those 2 immortals pulled and Van pulled the "remove a location" premium.
For the most part, the games went a little longer than the last one as there were less power blows via checklist "master" cards and less Master's Head Shots pulled. And one of the players even played with every single card he drafted.
Results...
Thomas 3-0 with no heads taken
Van 1-2 with no heads taken
Josh 1-2 with no heads taken
Zombie Joe 1-2 with no heads taken
This is probably the first time we have had such an even ranking under first place. I didn't take too many notes, but the highlight of the night for me was pulling off several "Presence of an Immortal" shots (I drafted two of them). Makes me consider constructing up an illusion deck, although I would be concerned about choking my hand up with them...

We started at 15.
Actually Zombie Joe, Thomas played octavius and I played Colin. Also I didn't use every card. I used all but a booster worth. I wasn't paying attention to Van was he playing everything?

Yep, I played Marcus Octavius and couldn't use my WOC because it had a Kanzashi front and a Katana back. But that was okay.
I was very lucky to draft a lot of good situations like Master Swordsplay and Master's Stratagem. Especially the latter card helped enormously.
I don't think/hope we will try out starting the game with 10 ability anytime soon. Here in Madison we are only 4 regular players and I don't really want to cut my average playing time down by one third. But if we get more players I would be okay with being a guinea pig for this tournament format.
