STAMP's ANB Extravaganza Tour Date Results

Date: 9/10/11, Place: 3rd, Card winner(s): RDT, NWJonathan

Well we didn't have a judge for our impromptu tournament this past Saturday, so it was unofficial from CGD perspective.  BUT that doesn't mean it wasn't official for those lucky winners of a new card from the new set: RDT and NWJonathan.

I received the new set I purchased from TLG only a couple of days before the tournament so I didn't have a whole lot of practice with the new green cards.  That being said, I was 2-2 with +4 LS diff.  I should have been 3-1 but lost my 1st T2 game due to playing a 3rd ANB at an inopportune time.

Another reason we made the tournament unofficial besides the lack of an official judge is that we used a house rule.  The recent ruling for activation of pre-loaded enhancements doesn't sit well with us here in southern OR.  So we used a house rule that whomever activated the hero holding the pre-loaded enhancement got to activate the enhancement from their perspective.  As a result, we had two Holy unto the Lord cards that were used against the 'pre-loader' AND I pulled off my combo of forcing my opponent to rescue with my ANB-holding Joel while I had Nazareth in play.  LOVED doing A New Half-Beginning!!  (Sort of made up for the fact that I played half-donkeyed )
