2/23 - Games for Meeple Store Showdown
Format: Bo3, no Top Cut, 14 players; https://melee.gg/Tournament/View/249731
Alyssa got #6, I got #8. We both went 2-2 and we friendly fired against each other in the second round.
Just talking about our matchups after the event.
Deck - Jango Tarkintown
Matchups
Vs Ahsoka ECL 2-1
Surprisingly fast, has a mix of the Rebel and Republic packages. Lost the first game and won the next two.
Vs Sabine ECL (Alyssa) 1-2
Super unfortunate that we friendly fire’d in the second round.
Vs Krennic ECL 2-0
I wasn’t sure of this matchup, but my opponent was like “Jango is bad for me” before we began. Both games they had an Inferno Four start. Both games, their Krennic leader died before it was able to attack. Second game, they did a misplay where they forgot that my Zuckuss gave my 4-LOM saboteur, which allowed me to get that extra base damage while they had a Phase-III Dark Trooper.
Vs Yoda Blue 1-2
I never saw them play a Vigilance, though I did see them draw one via Kuiil in one of the games. In the last game, I did a misplay of not Tarkintown’ing their injured Bendu, which would’ve died to my Sneak Attack’d Ruthless Raider’s When Defeated ability. Instead, they got one hit off with their Bendu, which basically gave them two extra resources for that turn, which did get utilized. But in hindsight, I don’t think that would’ve mattered.
Conclusion
We didn’t perform well, but we at least got a Top 8 promo lol.
About 10 more days until Set 4 Jump to Lightspeed’s pre-release (March 7th)!
This new format of post + videos is really nice!
