Congrats to the winner and all of the runners up! I seriously didn't think a deck using Wood Elves would have won. That is really cool! That leads me to believe that the game is in a healthy place right now. Great job guys.

I like the variety in the top 4. Would you say there was variety in the tournament as a whole?

I did not get a chance to see all of the decks being played. I think there might have only been one High Elf deck, but I might be wrong there might have been zero. Chaos and Empire had the most decks present. There were a few dwarves and Dark Elves. As well as a handful of Orcs. I did hear someone say that there were seven decks running Call of the Breyherd. One of those decks also had End Times in it.

There was a lot of concern among people of the dominance of Breyherd, and I did hear several people sound very happy that none of those decks made the top four. Two of them did make the top 8 (the one with End times, and another one that actually had Dark Elves and Orcs in it as well).

I really would love to see Wood Elves get a couple of win conditions other than having to default to Verena. That deck is extremely good, and Wood Elves seem to compliment it very well, but I would love to see them get a few more of the Ambush and development flip cards like Border Patrol to give them their own flare. Verena is an awesome deck, and I would like to see it remain in play, but my concern right now is it will be the default deck when someone goes to pick up Wood Elves once Hidden Kingdoms comes out, even with the new cards they add.

I guess only time will tell. I am really looking forward to the new deluxe expansion.

Congrats to all the winners!
