I just have to know. Did you actually end up getting a cardboard cut-out of Christopher Walken for the tournament?

Easy, guys.. I put my pants on just like the rest of you -- one leg at a time. Except, once my pants are on, I win Mage Wars!

Here's my book. I finished 5th but came within doing 1 damage of being in the mix for 3rd/4th and also I believe gave the champ his longest match of the tournament. The points missing are for a Temple High Guard, Joseph Trublood, and an Altar of Iron Guard. I might be off on something else but pretty sure this is the book.

[cost]Total cost: 112 pts[/cost]
[/spellbook]


My strategy was Turn 1 - Crystal & Cleric
Turn 2 - Move 1 and cast a Harmonized Temple a space above the bottom center and have the cleric pray
Turn 3 - Summon a Guardian Angel and play a nullify/block

And then after that my strategy depended on my opponent and what I felt was needed. I was able to play an Elemental Wand with Force Hammer in all 3 matches that did most of my damage but it was quickly stolen by the Forcemaster in my 3rd match as he was able to out pace my Nullifies.

Can't view the picture album, I would assume because your settings are to private.

Thanks Winter you da man. Ok in order those pictures are:

Logan and his Earth Wizard. He literally learned how to play the night before. He went 1-2.
Me and my Beast Master. I stopped demoing for one match against Joseph so I could let out some stress :)
Rob and his Druid.
Adam and his Adramelech Warlock. He was actually helping me judge and acted as the "bye round."
Andrew VS Logan and Jon M VS Joe
Same
Joe and his Priestess. He took 2nd place.
Brian and his Priestess. He fought some amazing matches and nearly beat the champ.
Same.
Jimillia and her Air  Wizard. Honestly I did not envy her opponent list. Logan, Brian, Joe as she took on two super tough Priestess books.
Force Master Battle between Sara and John E
Josh and his Araxian Crown Warlock VS Kiara and her Priestess
Bunch of matches. We had like three tables filled up.
Joe and his Priestess again.
Jon M and his Earth Wizard
Brian VS Millie
Rob again.
Brian again.
More matches. I'm in the background.
Another shot of matches.
Me awarding the Champ his prizes. The t-shirt he has on and the artwork he chose.

Mace actually had a professional photographer cataloging the convention and they were nice enough to loan us for these shots.
