Florence After Dark

Monkey Wrench Charleston has come and gone.  Brenda and I made the trip to Charleston on Saturday to play. It was an excellant tournament with fantastic play and great people.  I managed to make it to the finals with 2 VPs from the previous two rounds, but was put out in the final. I was playing Club Set, a settite corruption bleed deck and Brenda was playing a Kiaysd power bleed.

First Round I was seated against a Nos Prince vote deck, (James)!Malk power bleed deck.,and a (Greg) IC Vote deck,  I got Allonzo and Nakhthorheb out after being hit by an early Parity Shift from my predator. I had all the Nos corrupted and they could not block Nakhthorheb. The !Malk was my grand predator and he was punishing my predator(Greg) hard. He managed to take out Greg as I was set to take out my prey with the public trust and enticement I had in my hand.. However, he also bleed me out before I could seal the deal. The !Malk ended up sweping the table for 3 VPs and a game win.

Second round I managed much better ending up with 2 VPs. Seating was Saulot Spirit Marionette deck, (Jeff T) !Saulot Intercept Deck, (Me), and (Chris) Weenie Vote Deck.

I got a great draw and opening crypt once again getting Allonzo and Nakhthorheb out . Chris had been punishing his prey (Saulot Deck) with 4 KRC and multiple bleeds. Jeff was watching occasionally trying to block some of my actions. I power bleed Chris and put him out and almost put my grandprey out the same turn. A turn later, it was just Jeff and myself. Jeff managed to block all my actions as I had burned through alot of my stealth earlier. He torporized my minions and diablarized them. Jeff ended up bleeding my out to collect 2 VPs.

Final seating was as follows:

Jason Joy - Followers of Set Corruption Bleed - 2VPs

Jeffrey Thompson - Salubri Antitribu Intercept - 1 GW 6 VPs
James Medors - Malkavian Antitribu Stealth Power Bleed - 2 GW 8 VPs
Greg Mitchell -  Inner Circle Vote/Bleed - 1 GW 2.5 VPs
Jeff Brandon - Anarch Gargoyles - 1 GW 3.5 VPs

I ended up going first and did not manage to draw Nakhthorheb in my crypt. I got Allonzo and Bupe Kuilaout.. Jeff T. was bleeding James and torporize James famed vampire. Greg had got out Leandro And Maris Streck and punsihing Jeff B with bleeds and vote. Bounce was an issue as bleeds were going everywhere but the intended prey. I speant several turns protecting my predator (Jeff B) from Gregs votes with a DI and Delaying tactics. Jeff T. bleed out James. Every bleed I sent to Jeff T. was bouncing my bleeds, though the narrow minds I got out was punishing his vampires. Greg was able to Parit Shift me and bleed me out. After Jeff T. torporized and diablarized Gregs minions, Greg conceded and Jeffery Thompson won.
