TWD - MartCon, Mannheim (Germany), (April 16th, 2005)

I recently won an eight-player tournament and found myself slightly frustrated for the winning deck not to go into the TWDA (the rule as such is fine, of course). This small irritation motivated me to double check my tournament history though and I realized that there was one tournament unreported, i.e. the 2005 MartCon tournament in Mannheim. I did rememember which deck I played, as it was pretty much the first deck I developed over a longer period until I won with it. So I rummaged my ancient stuff and found the old (Eldb?-) printout of the 2005 version and even an earlier version from 2002.

So here it is, excuse the slight delay
PS: Looking back from 2023 there are some surprises. For instance, I wouldn't have thought that Quicken Sight was an earlier release than On the qui vive, but yeah, it was.

Deck Name: Tragic, fast and beautiful (2005)
Description:
A variation of the Cel-Gun theme: Relatively strong forward power and combining gun combat with Majesty untap. So the signature move was to shoot, use Majesty as an additional strike in order to untap, ideally taste, then Psyche! to finish the victim off. Good times.
