Kyle Schewe (caravanhymn) Tournament Report - 2E Standard - Rura Penthe Regional 2011-05-14 - 11:00 AM Blast the Stars Introduction This was my first Regional, and my plan was to hopefully win 1 game! Round 1 Mike Rudolph FW (0) Turn 3 I had drawn Kruge into my hand, I already had a ship out, and I had Precise Strike in my hand. Playing against a Voyager deck, Mike had nowhere to hide, and I took over his ship and his crew went into my Brig. Mike lost some key Personnel to his deck too. He had to get more than 5 people on his next ship, or I would Kruge him again and send his Personnel. With some tricks he did, but it was too late, I ended up crushing my 1st and 2nd Mission, both with 1 attempt. Game was done in a bit over 1/2 an hour. This was only my second tournament, and I felt pretty good about it. Round 2 Keith Morris FL (0)View opponent's ReportView original Report I had a poor starting hand. I drew into all my expensive Personnel, I didn't draw a Ship until well into the game (and I have more ships in this deck than most other decks have), and Keith drew a great hand. He walked all over me, and a few mistakes I had playing Dilemnass, and the game was over in about 40 minutes. I had been helping Kyle playtest his deck over the last few weeks, but I knew he would have made some changes since the last time we played. Unfortunately for Kyle I had an awesome opening hand. I played Tal first turn. Not only did this allow me to check kyles hand every turn, but he had an interrupt which meant I was able to get Donatra and a few P'Tol into play early. With P'Tol scouting Kyles dilemma pile, I was able to decide which missions to attempt when, and with who, or just make him shuffle with the Tree Ritual I had in play. Kyle had problems drawing into a ship, so by the time he got to attempt his first mission, I was already working on my last. FW 100-0 Round 3 Mike Reid MW (0) Mike (or Oboe) and I had a fun game. The game definitely went my way. The key events were my choice in Mission attempts. I had a BaH! out to get me enough points for a FW, BUT I forgot how awesome the Queen's Borg Sphere is. So to get a FW I would have to complete all 4 of my missions. Fail, only MW.
