Recreating the Lasombra's Deck Bashing Challenge Archive was created by drnlmza
I recently noticed that, with the lasombra's site being offline, many of the archived deck bashing decks aren't available anymore - archive.org only has those from the very early challenges.
I've been trying to dig up the various decks and recreate the archive in the secretlibrary.
I've been adding decks with the prefix 'AWDBC: ', so they can be easily found when searching the secret library.
I've managed to find the following decks (sections and names from the original deck archive on the Lasombra's site)

They were the various entries for Atom Weaver's Deck Bashing Challenge
The original challenge was
The VTES Precon Decklist Bashing Challenge 03.01.07
Using only the cards contained in two precon starters
of your choice, generate a decklist you think would be
competitive in a mid-size constructed tournament (not a
qualifier or championship, but assume strong local players,
and, say 20 participants). Duplicating a starter is
acceptable. Choosing more recent precons (3rd Ed, LOB,
KMW) is preferred (but not mandatory). Alternatively,
you could choose to substitute the content of VTES Player's
Kit for one precon. If you've got the stones to play it
For Real in a sanctioned event, so much the better, let
us know how you do.
The goals here are
1) to challenge your m@dd deckbuilding skills!!
2) to generate some ideas for competitive decks that
new/early players might look to for inspiration and
direction for their own collecting efforts.
Also, I think these decklists could go a long way as
evidence against the (false) perceived need for big
investment in cards in order to build competitive decks.
