For this years Regional Championship, we used a Season 3 Starter and 2 Season 3 Boosters with which to build your 50 card minimum deck. We had all the players from Friday night show up, and were able to add two more local Madison players.
For this event, Thomas "The German Kid™" took over the judging duties as Josh and I are going to GenCon this year and he is not.
Winner: with 4 wins and no heads taken, Jeff Vost
Final Standings
Todd Daniels 4 wins, 1 head
Randy Jenkins 3 wins, no heads
Joe Alfano 2 wins, 1 head
Bill Vick 2 wins, 0 heads
Nick Alfano 1 win, 0 heads
Rob Beard 1 win, 0 heads
Josh Holder 0 wins
Dave Van Natta 0 wins
Special Note: We definitely saw that if you pulled Kenny as your persona (Josh), that you were at a disadvantage. This disadvantage became almost unworkable if you did not manage to pull a Guardian (which he did not). This is definitely something to be taken into consideration when doing a sealed with this set. For future events with Season 3, I anticipate drafting the contents of the starter and boosters to help ensure a more balanced tournament structure.
Hopefully it will make it more fun for all players involved as well.
