Congratz to Jen-i who brought the beggars into top spot over the barons!

On a different note, please stay tune for a tournament rules update, regarding on connectivity and dropping out in mid-tournament.

I post the deck I used because some of the players showed interest.

It's just adrenavamps with momentums and quints. Adrenavamps is weak against shields (both expensive and unexpensive) and I reckoned there'd be a lot of beggars, and that some of them would rely on CC, so there you have it.
As a quad deck, it's slow. I don't recommend it for other situations, but it kinda fitted this tourney. Still it could have been better balanced, it was somewhat quanta starved.
I used this in all the matches, only removing lobos and adding momentums if the opponent showed PC in the first game.
Also... if you are lucky enough to connect the combo... it feels like glory!! 

[ARTHANASIOS]

The last of the Barons stands severly wounded, stabbed by the Staff and Fahrenheit that Jen-i holds in each of his hands.
- "So, this is how it ends, the great dynasty of Elemental Barons falls in front of my eyes along with my life. I hoped I could avegne the death of my noble brothers; Lord Seagul, Count Chapuz and Sir Arwulf (sorry if I have forgotten anyone)", Arthanasios said.
- "You have underestimated us, Arthanasios the Scum. Never look down on a beggar, especially a beggar-pirate. I had also comrades whose souls were screaming for retribution, unable to find rest due to your ruthless reign!", Jen-i replied.
- "Then what do you wait for? End my misery!", Arthanasios shouted, almost like commanding Jen-i to act.
- "No, I won't slay you. I may am a 'filthy' beggar, an 'outlaw' pirate and I may steal gold of the nobility, but I don't steal human lives, like your kin does, Arthanasios!", Jen-i replied to the Baron and he left the Scum's castle, leaving Arthanasios to his misery.

ggs Jen-i, ARTHANASIOS 0-2 Jen-i, Beggars have won!

Quite original IMO, yet plain simple. Outrush your opponents with a dragon's army. It is possible to have a QI of 10 per turn, allowing you to summon an extra dragon every turn!

Another combo which is not used often, however it can be proven pretty good and versatile due to darkness arsenal or 4-costing cards.

Artha, your gargoyle deck was coooool.

[Dragoon]

Thanks for posting decks! I always love to see what people come up with. I wish I could've been there. Sounded like a fun tourney.

[dragonsdemesne]

This looked like a fun tourney, but time zones kept me out of it.  At first, I was thinking that the beggar choice would be the strongest, because nearly all of the CC/PC is in beggar, and most of decks like grabbow or firestall are in beggar, and I figured I'd pick that one if I were playing.  Later, though, I was thinking that if you played baron, you'd have access to miracle and antimatter, as well as sanc, and you could make a pretty darned good stall out of those.  Barons would also be able to use nymphs, and I was thinking something like quinted purple or fire nymphs would be fairly effective.  Barons could also use gravity shield, which would have probably hurt other barons really badly.

Anyway, grats to the winners, and hopefully I can make it next time!

[Arwulf]

Unfortunately, there has not been any Baron-Baron matches
