Last Chance Qualifier Philippines

The Last Chance Qualifier happened last September 10 at Marks place. We started at 10 in the morning and ended on a happy note sometime past 6pm. Lunch was served with a giant 36" pizza, yet i disgress from the actual report. We had a total of 9 players, which was a shame really as a 10th player might have joined but was still new and didnt feel like he could participate well in a tourney.



Participants:

Aurelio Icatiano (Imbued toolbox deck)

Jeremiah Faustino "Faust"(Assamite intercept)

Jason Docalios (Tremere anti G3-4 bleed)

Khervin Cheng Chua "Toad"(Tzimisce G3-4 bleed)

Paul Jonathan Tio (Una multiaction deck)

Hannibal Bobis "Haig"(Setite G2-3 temptation deck)

Charlene Fernandez Bobis "Charlie"(Salubri/Harbinger G2 intercept deck)

Mark Villareal (Brujah G2-3 Fortitude rush/bleed)

Francis Godoy "Jun"(Lasombra G2-3 bleed)



ROUND 1

Table 1

Aurelio (3VP, GW)

Jason

Charlene (1VP)

Paul



The game started with the imbued but the table was pretty static by itself, as Jason's bleeds were confounded by Charlie's intercept deck. Aurelio kept a good pressure on his predator Paul by throwing Vampiric disease (which severely limited her ability) and Society of Leopold and Pentex. The only highlight here was when Paul stole Cassie with an entrancement at superior which was passed by at +3 stealth. In the end though the mortals got the table when Charlie ousted Paul after Una coudnt untap anymore because of the Vampiric Disease draining Una's precious blood.



Table 2

Jeremiah

Hannibal

Francis (Jun)

Mark

Khervin (Toad) (5VP, GW)



This table got into a ruckus with combat getting mixed with the various Meths, in the end the Tzimisce bleed swept the table and the game win with careful planning and consolidation of his vampires while the other Meths were busy.



ROUND 2

Table1

Jeremiah (Faust)

Jason (2 VP)

Haig

Charlie

Aurelio (3VP, GW)

The Tremere anti bleeder got through with some very important bleeds under mirror walk, and was able to oust Haig and Charlie succesively. But in the end, ran into the imbued set up and fresh after his oust of the Assamite Faust. In the end the mortals claimed this win as well.



Table 2

Mark

Jun

Paul

Toad (4 VP, GW)



Toad made an early headway as bleeding with fiendsih tongue and changelings as Mark brought the biggest vamp yet Gwendolyn. This left him with a weakened state and didnt allow him to influence any other vamps. Jun brough out adv Vitel followed by Lucita adv. By the time Toad ousted the Brujah, the Lasombra had three vampires out which included Aurora van Brande. But at this time the Una deck had set up and pretty much had so many attachments including eternal Vigilance and premanent +4 bleed, and +3 intercept. Sengir dagger and Ivory bow equipped it was a an awesome sight and held the Lasombra incursions to a minimum, especially after Vitel was Pentexed by Paul and Aurora falling to a well timed Coma by Una. In the end though, Jun fell to the Tzimisce. The battle was a close one but eventually Tzimisce hordes swept the table.

ROUND 3

Table 1

Jason (1 VP)

Mark

Faust (4 VP, GW)

Haig

Jun


The Assamites managed to solidify their position in this table. In the end, with the exception of Mark being ousted by bleeds it was swept away by the Assamites.


Table 2

Aurelio (3 VP, GW)

Charlie

Paul (1 VP)

Toad


Aurelio managed to solidify his position early and started weakening both prey and predators with Vampiric Diseases. Toad placed an early Pentex on Una, but Paul retaliated by placing a well-timed Pentex of his own on Lady Zara. Una, Jacob fermor and Ossian started bleeding, eventually weakened from the disease Toad succumbed to the bleeds. Charlie fell soon afterwards to Aurelio, but before a real battle could commence Aurelio slaps Una with Penetex and soon claims victory.
