Reported by Steve Harris, VEKN National Coordinator of Australia:

The Oceania Grand Prix Brisbane 2025 took place on June 21 in Comics Plus. 22 players attended.

Standings after three rounds:
1. Ke Carlton 2 GW, 10 VP
2. Richard Aumann 2 GW, 7.5 VP
3. Nick Miller 1 GW, 7 VP
4. Nathan Budd 1 GW, 3 VP, 106 TP
5. Duncan Kemp 1 GW, 3 VP, 96 TP

I only saw a bit of this finals. From what I saw, the 2 Banu Haqims battled each other but didn't achieve much against each other Stanislava never really got going, as his prey could hurt him backwards, and his predator put Stani into torpor a few times.  The other BH deck had to rescue a few times, iirc. The Hecata deck slowly built up moved forward, ousting 2 preys in the last half hour or so of the game.
  
Ke got the game win with 2.5 VP, and Nick 0.5 and Duncan 0.5. Congratulatiosn Ke!

Tournament winning deck: "Powerbase Decay" by Ke
Comment: “Focused Shroud of Decay and Family Gathering Abuse. Powerbase Zürich allows for both crypt acceleration and survival. House of Sorrow with Dreams / Coven allows for lunge turns (especially if you have Anu in play). Only change after the New Blood release was adding Powerbase Munich. Would drop 1x Tommaso for 1x Alek to lower average capacity. Added Unmasking + FBI last minute with minimal impact.”
