07/03/13: Round one pairings have been announced. The first win of the tournament goes to Niar, but there's still a chance for someone to win after loosing their first game.
The second of the round one winners is Deludee, who managed to beat scrollsguide's kbasten. Best of luck to both of them in the second round.
Hurr (GrumpCat) will be having her first match against fomtg, scheduled for Thursday night. He's a good player so it's going to be a tough one! We will update the results and write up a full report afterwards.
Grumpcat vs fomtg round 1 match report
I have played fomtg a few times before, and none of those games went particularly well. So when I discovered that I was paired with him for my round one match, I wasn’t very hopeful. From the tournament thread I knew he was playing energy, which I find most difficult to play against. Nonetheless, I went into the game telling myself I still had a chance to win if I played well.
My general experience with energy is that if you let too many big units stay on the field, the game isn’t going to last very long. So my game plan was to kill everything in sight and try to end the game as quickly as possible. Fomtg’s deck had a ridiculous amount of removal, ember bonds, inferno blast, thundersurge, violent dispersal etc - but he couldn’t maintain field presence. Once I had used imperial resources I knew that the game was coming to a close.
Looking at his deck now, it seems too inconsistent and a little disjointed. 1 copies of scrolls in a 51 scroll deck would be difficult for anyway to play. Although he did mention that he built it himself and it is still unfinished, so I commend him for that. Making a deck is no easy task, and from what I’ve seen the new energy scrolls such as bombard and concentrate fire are must have scrolls.
Although I’ve won my round one game, I’m still unconvinced that I’m going to finish in a prize winning position – but I will do my best anyway !
08/03/2013: Cerc6 and Sysp both win their round one matches, congratulations !
08/03/2013: JysusCryst manages to secure a victory in their round one match against Varicus. We are at the halfway point for round one with more matches still to be decided.
09/03/2013: Viktor, Barbalatte and Handsomejack8 win their round one matches. Only three left to go, including Durr's!
10/03/2013: Lordbandaid and Jcvsmc's game has been completed and Lordbandaid has walked away victorious!
Another of the match-ups played today was between Malachia and Selebu, although new to the scene Malachia pulled his weight and claimed a victory.
Final match of round 1 between our very own Durr and Blinky! A hard fought game but Durr managed to pull it off!.
This concludes round 1, Round 2 pairings shall be announced tomorrow at 12pm GMT
10/03/2013: Round 2 Pairings announced!
Durr's Round 1 Match Report.
This was always going to be an exceptionally hard fought game and in all honesty I am surprised I managed to pull off it off. This is the first time I have ever beaten Blinky and the game was very back and forth but I just about managed to keep the upper hand by removing his threats as fast as I could. Towards the end I knew I had him on the back foot so was trying to end it as quickly as possible before to many gravelock eldars hit the field and I couldn't answer them.
The amount of cool down reset in my deck really paid off as it helped keep constant pressure on and didn't let up. Unleash inner power as usual was a power house card not only winning me the game but enabling me to remove creatures with potion of resistance on.
All in all I'm exceptionally happy with the victory and know full well how this could have easily swung the other way, we have played once before against each other using very similar decks. In that game I managed to get the last idol I needed to 5hp but he managed to turn it around and into a win.

23/03/2013 TrivialTurtle and jcvsmc have officially dropped out of the tournament. Therefore, we have paired Noghteyes and DarkHunter14 for Round 3.
27/03/2013 As Acidjb is no longer able to play, Kbasten has kindly offered to step in on his behalf. Being one of the tournament organisers (and scrollsguide ruler) we decided this was a fair decision. Kbasten has secured a victory, however if Acidjib now wins a prize it will be distributed to other participants and not himself. There are only 4 games left to play in this round and with beta around the corner it's time to get a move on !
31/03/2013 Congratulations to our own Grumpcat! who has now also gone 3-0 her powerful mono order deck and sharp skills were to much for JysusCryst to handle.
31/03/2013 GRUMPCAT HAS BROUGHT HOME THE SCROLLSGUIDE.COM TROPHY!!. Congrats to her and her amazing performance so as it stands the top 3 are:
1st:Grumpcat
2nd:Deludee
