After a small but brave showing for August, we had 11 players for September. Hot on the heels of the announcement for ChaosCon 3, players brought their A-game.
11 players meant we unfortunately had a bye (this is relevant later on).
We welcomed one new player, Sacha, who showed a natural knack for flipping cards 360 degrees.
A lot of people on their normal decks meant some tough competition.
There was one 3-0 going into the last round. Patrick failed in defending his record which meant a 4-way tie among those with 3-1 records.
Because the organizer used a stand-in player for the ‘bye’, this meant players who had a bye were at a disadvantage (which isn’t how Magic tournaments usually handle byes). After a quick recalculation, Fred comes out on top with his tiebreakers. Congratulations on your first monthly win, Fred! and welcome Sacha!
